--btw can someone give me a hint about what to do with my folio? i wanna take the best stuff from it and render it out, not sure what to take or who to target with it or if i should just start from scratch

--Yeah Hermi thats what im doing now I havent shown this work to anyone but I really like the direction im going with it
29 Jun 15:12
--I meant a personal project you start and finish. Not staying on it for whoever knows how long, without showing it to the public.

--artstation competition is brutal tho, with everyone else just being 1 click away

--I have for projects that werent my own but what im working on now is pretty much exactly what i would like to work on
29 Jun 15:11
--Not saying it's consistent, but it seems to get a wide audience. Definitely ArtStation for more AAA stuff

--I am curious Nicholas, I am by no means a working professional, but have you started and finish personal project for the very thing you wanted to do?
29 Jun 15:10
--but im really looking forward to it, i think its gonna be something that hasnt really been done before as a challenge and it can be really useful for your personal growth as an artist

--So do you guys get a lot of gigs from connections? thats what i struggle with the most but everyone says thats how you really break into mid to high tier paying jobs with good companies
29 Jun 15:09
--yeah, it's coming next month hopefully. i really want to make it good and also do some example pieces or a blog about it before it starts, but i got tons of stuff to finish before i can get to that

--I think one thing one can do is initiate personal projects for the thing you want to do. (Perfect example Ihor Caisne his latest series of Field of Thorns)

--Man it totally depends. With this one I was at a book signing event for White Cloud Worlds volume 3 which I was published in recently, and I met some friendly peeps at it. She said they were looking for an artist, and I just showed them the book. They hired me soon after.

--Congrats Amit. And Jan weren't you the one that spoken about the idea you wanted to start?
