It's not just networking I;m doing on fb it's simply keeping myself motivated with like minded folks, although I rarely even post.

Nice :) I think I'm gonna start by studying from books, Loomis, How To Draw etc

So I've had to make a course on how to actually execute the fundementals. This as you have found out takes time to customise!

I'll give it a go and see if it needs adjusting!

Looking through other peoples studies who've made it, I reaslise how far behind I am , which is good because now it's keeps me permanetly motivated

I've saved a few work schedules from that forum onto my comp, wotek fuss had a good one, where you could customise it. His osd is no longer available but I altered it in ps.

it's not bad but one thing I notice is that he doesn't factor in industrial design, I suppose the personal could under the title "imaginative also".

Yeah I need loads of work in all the fundamentals :P such a long way to go!

Its best that i narrow my focus even though I'm bursting with ideas I can only execute half assed unless I level up on foundational studies. Thus anatomy, form, composition, color and light have become a point of my research.

Yeah see I'd like to be on that road too, hard to workout where to start

I'm trying to figure out a schedule for illustration aka applibot or wizards, and its taken me time to even figure that much out!

Yeah I've been doing a lot of pixel art, but I want to get better at digital painting too :( and art/anatomy in general

08 Feb 12:21

Nous

Good point, but you have focused on pixal art correct?

08 Feb 12:19

Mayenla

I'm pretty much the same, I also find it takes me ages to pick things to study

08 Feb 12:19

I still struggle with schedule stuff mainly because I'm still looking at how to study certain subjects
