Hi, everyone.

Sorry for my poor English.

My first ever experience in forums. I joined for improving my skills to enter the gamedev industry as an artist. After a long time of "self improving" I figured out that it's impossible to be separeted from other artists. 

Want to find buddies to push each other to improve faster.

Will be glad if u visit my Sketchbook!

Hey guy´s,

hope you all doing good!

I want to introduce myself here and welcome you to look and critique me at my Sketchbook Thread.

My name ist Max and I´m from Berlin/Germany.
2010 I started to draw and paint serisouly to improve my skills.
2020 I took a break from drawing cause I drew to much without fun and it felt like a burnout.

But this break from drawing was the best thing that could happend to me.
So to take a break from something is not a negative thing guy´s.
It feels like my passion for drawing and painting is back and the best thing is I have fun again.

So I set myself some goals I will focus on.

- specialize in Character Design 2D
- specialize in creature Design  2D


Side skills

- Splash Art
- enviornement Design 2D/3D
- 3D skills

What will I do to archive my goal and improve my skills?

I will work on my portfolio and I need  your critique! :D

To improve my skills I will work on a "Art shedule" weekly basis.

-Anatomy fundamentals(full body)
-Gesture drawings
-clothing folds
-Nature
-color and light studies (movie and other Artists)
-Perspective
-3D
- HAVE FUN!

Hope you will follow my journey, I try to post daily my progress on my sketchbook.

cheers
Max

Hello everyone,
I'm madesc
I am a student, motion graphics artist, illustrator, loves concept artist... all rounder... basically about to graduate.
I have been touring forums and well might as well contribute.

Hope everyone is staying safe given this dire weather and happy to see everyone's work honestly.
I've missed the community in art online, even with discord with those that haven't found a sweet spot, something still feels missing.
Hopefully I update once a week.

Hey everyone!

I found this forum on reddit after searching for a conceptart.org like forum. 

I'm 32 years old, been drawing as a hobby but eventually stopped due to lack of time and demanding oil field career.
Last year with the lockdown,  I discovered many interesting youtube channels including proko, Moderndayjames etc and I got back to drawing.

Since then I started studying everything at the same time XD.

I'm interested in digital painting, character and environment design. 

I'm glad to join this forum.

Ps: Sorry for my bad english, I'm actually a french speaker.

Hi,
Just made a new account here. I made one a little while ago but I forgot the username/password and the "reset password" function doesn't seem to work. Maybe something to look into.

That's ok though because this new username is what I use on Instagram anyways: https://www.instagram.com/clipant/

Happy to join you all. Art is just a hobby for me and I've got a career in another field, but always looking to improve my image making skills.
Cheers.

Hey all, I read about this place on reddit after searching for a conceptart-like forum to join.

I have some talent and have doodled on and off for years but recently I decided that I would be sad if I didn’t develop it as far as I can before I die someday.

I wish I had a goal to share beyond that (becoming an illustrator or a concept-artist, etc.) but I don’t. I just want to be as good as I can with what I have.

Hey everyone! 

I've been posting around for a little while now but I'm really excited to be here! 

A little introduction: I'm a concept artist from the Netherlands, doing this for... about 5 years professionally now. Shipped a game I'm really proud of (Deliver Us The Moon), and some more that I'm less proud of haha. 

I'm 27 now, have a nice job, a good place to live, but I feel like I'm heading towards an artistic dead-zone. I missed out on forming a close artist friend-group (all my friends are programmers or game designers basically), and the contemporary social media landscape is just not fulfilling that wish for more in-depth, thought-provoking critique, feedback, and encouragement. 

Crimson Daggers seems like the place to be. Looking forward to meeting all of you!

Hi, I look forward to getting to know this forum a little better.
Art has been a hobby for years and I have been exercising sometimes more, sometimes less.
I hope this time my motivational flame will burn strong and I will make some steps forward with my art.

Another hobby I recently discovered is making little adventure games, so for that it would also contribute if I could make better backgrounds/sprites etc.

Apart fom that I have a dog - Name is Momo.

See ya around!

Hey all,
Inactivist here. I've been drawing on and off since I was a kid but only really started getting serious about improving at art last year. I've been trying to self-learn from YouTube videos and any other free resources I come across on the internet. Currently I've been pursuing figure drawing and texture drawing.

My hobbies outside of art include video games, anime and movies mainly.

Glad to be here and hope to see you all around soon!

Hello, dear artists! I have heard about Crimson Daggers from the old Dave Rapoza’s stream. Been loorking here for a while and finally registered. This forum is like a dream place: a lot of people giving feedback and things are not so fast-paced as in art chats.

A trivia about myself. Till last half a year or a year I thought I want to be a character concept artist, but actually didn’t produce any character designs - paradox. I mostly drew fanarts with modest plot(flying heads, people just standing etc). I haven’t seen progress for a long time. In last year I was trying to improve, had mentorship in summer-autumn. Well, I think I hardly progressed, but mentorship confirmed some of my vague guesses about art process and showed that people are not the only fun thing to draw. C: 
Right now i want to see more planning and self-discipline in my study. And also to determine where to aim in gamedev. No to being a potato!
