--you have to search for clients just to charge them dirt cheap prices? doesnt sound like a good use of your time then
28 Jan 15:09
--having to actively search out for basically animal porn gigs that only pay lunch for like 3 days..lowest of the barrel

--If you have to factor design into the character art then the price is ridiculous

--Question, is the character generator close to what a AD brief looks like? Or something similar to the Chows on ca?

--i was doing caricatures for like 10 bucks that were inked and it was hard getting anyone to even pay that. not that Im great at caricatures but the general public dont want to pay jack shit for what they see as a simple drawing

--yes individuals it a sub culture thing. i got one gig from craigslist almost as soon as i posted ut but they wanted me to come down on the sketch price..

--Basically, if the question is "how to work for applibot", there's a specific non-philosophical answer (or several of them, but I hope you know what I mean)
28 Jan 11:39
--Guys, I agree with you:) I'm just saying that if you "aim for applibot" at one point of your journey (which shouldn't end at "aiming for applibot"), you might consider "applibotting yourself" in order to get that job as soon as possible. If that's your wish. Of course you are going to aim higher and you're going to develop the style and the inclination towards what you love.
28 Jan 11:35
--When you are as good as those guys, you don't come to applibot, applibot comes to you. But at that point you don't really aim for applibot, you reached that level long ago:)
28 Jan 11:33
--But there are tens of applibot guys that are their backbone mid tier and they are insanely skilled.

--By "let you do it" I mean call you first and beg you to illustrate their cards:D
28 Jan 11:32
--Ah, yes, if you are Dave or Ruan Jia or someone like that, you would sell that card by being yourself, so they would gladly let you do it
