Hey there. I'm new here. My name is Sallie Rios. I had made an account a couple months back but didn't get to use it. Now I'm here exploring the site to see if it has what I need. I need critique for my works, painting advice, any advice really. I'm working hard trying to learn everything I can but going the self taught path is not easy and it gets overwhelming sometimes. ^^'

I'm 23, I have a BA in English Literature and I'm working on a Masters in Translation. Not really interested enough in all that but I've always been good with languages so what the hell, I needed something practical. What I love to do is art. It is the only thing that can get me off my ass to spend countless hours working. I don't think anything motivates me like art does so I keep at it, hoping I get better, it's happening but slowly. I want it to go faster, hence my presence here. Let's see if it helps.

Hey brotherhood of the Crimson Daggers!

I've been meaning to be active on here for a super long time...ever since seeing Dave's turtles on deviantart and finding his live streams and learning lots through the bloodsports judging and so on! I have to thank Dan and Dave as they have truly helped me with how i approach my artwork, whenever I need a creative boost just re-watch an episode.

So, I'm Chris, 22 and from the UK.

nice to meet you :)

Hi everyone,

I'm Wilson. I love the group, long time lurker, i figured it was time i joined and started a sketchbook to help me stay focused and motivated. I'd love to get some feedback and honest crits. I'm currently landing some very small time freelance work, and i'm giving all the time i can to studying.

WHASSUP, I'm Fedodika or Fedo, whatever you'd like to call me.

I like to keep my posts short except for crits.

I'll be posting some stuff here soon, mostly studies. I love good feedback and harsh crits!

Looking forward to meeting everyone and improving!

Here's to art and staying focused!

(I'm also building a list of helpful links for people struggling with head drawings/perspective/and anatomy. If you have any that really helped you, link me ;))

Fresh meat. Heard it's good place to get honest critique on 2D stuff.

Hey all.

So i'm 19, and im from Montreal, Canada. Im currently enrolled in illustration and design and honestly im not 100% sure which branch of illustration i want to go into. I think concept art looks like the most ideal job but i think the dream for me would be developping an I.P. Maybe a graphic novel of sorts.

In any case i'm here not only to get better but also to meet more of the art community. So hello and nice to meet you all :)

Hi, I've heard this was an up and coming art community and wanted to get in on it. I just turned 23 and have been working hard on my work thus far. As far as a goal...I want to travel. I trust myself in that I can draw everyday and am able to reflect critically on my work, but I feel as though I haven't lived enough yet and would like to gain some experience as a person. Ideally I'd like to do some plein air painting out in California as I really like that school of art, I'll let you know how that turns out.

Other than that, I just stay gridin'. Thanks for having me.

Hey, I'm 25 years old and live on the Space Coast of Florida. My art journey began at 22 while fumbling around at the community college. When I got out of high school I thought I wanted to be an engineer, then a web developer, graphic designer... Getting closer, and finally Fine Art which has led me into illustration and concept art.

The goal is to eventually work with either Blizzard or Irrational Games. I love Bioshock Infinite's art even though I haven't played the game yet.

So, that being said I'm giving myself a 6 month challenge and will devote 30 hrs a week minimum at improving my art. The numbers guy in me had to calculate it, 720 hrs added to the 10,000 hour bucket.

Hi, everyone.
My name is Josh and I am strictly amateur. I started drawing a bit late, somewhere around my sophmore year in high school. I'm recently coming back to art after a long hiatus and wish to make a real effort at improving. I'm thirty-five and I feel that if I can't be serious about my work now, it's never going to happen. I'm looking for good feedback and will listen to any constructive advice you all might have for me. Thanks in advance and it's great to have found Crimson Daggers.

I am a Fine Artist and a Creative Director and concept guy.
