I'm Damien Saelak and I like to party. jk I'm an obviously new here! I joined to "feel less alone" haha (like it says on the front page)

When i first heard of this community I didn't know that it was an online community with sharing artists. I thought it was an online coarse or some sort of online training school where you had to pay, kinda like schoolism or something. So i never bothered in checking it out cus quite honestly I'm broke haha

I'm currently 23, a college drop out (may go back) and I'm trying to go pro with my art like everyone else on these threads. Anyways I think its awesome how this is a learning environment with working professionals, and even more awesome that information is free! So Sweeet!!! So please accept meeee haha

Also Ive kinda been in a slump ever since I had to move back home with my mother :\ I've been less productive/motivated this year, but I'm determined to turn my life around and become what I origially set out to be. And when surrounded by others on the same quest is way more motivating than sitting around looking at awesome paintings and wondering what it must be like to paint so well. I need to make this dream a reality, so thanks to everyone and I'll try to participate as best I can!

If you like my work and think I'd do well in a certain illustraion feild PLEASE TELL ME!! I'm trying power level my art to get on my feet.

you can check out my work at damiensaelak.deviantart.com or facebook

Thanks for reading! Have a good day!

Hey guys, I heard of CD at polycount. I've been a 3d artist in games for a long time, I want to get better at concept art and more traditional skills in general. This seems to be the place to do that.

Looking forward to working on some arts here and learning.

Thanks!

Here's some of my stuff:

Dreamers2

I came from Myrmirada's Livestream and met a bunch of people whom as a result got me here. Anyways, I'm most active in deviantART therefore found-able as XaVarK @dA despite my lack of artworks...

Will be making a sketchbook soon so... look forward to it, i guess..?

I'm not really much of an anime/ manga person but since my friends had me draw this, I'll use it as part of my intro.

My name is Adam Vehige. My last name is pronounced like this ( Vague + E) everyone get's it wrong the first time. I'm a 36 year old freelance concept illustrator working from my home studio since 2005. I am here like most of you are, to get better! I've reached a plateau in my skills and need to take my art to the next level. Let's help each other become beautiful people!

Please feel free to check out my gallery in the links of my signature to get a better idea of where I'm currently at with my art. Some areas I need to work on include: overall fundamentals, form, edge control, depth, concept development, color, sophistication, realism, etc. etc. In my life I'm looking to get healthier, more motivated so I may do some Gyms'n Daggers shit...this lifestyle has definitely turned into a Gollum like existence "we forgets the taste of bread..." I'm looking to make some friends and contacts so please feel free to message me. I look forward to meeting you and participating in the future!

Cheers,
Adam

P.S. I'm attending the Gnomon Live workshop at the end of this month. If you are going and want to meet up let me know.

Hey everybody. Coming to you from The Great White North. Very excited to join this community with all these killer artists here and can’t wait to get some feedback and critiques from you all.

Hey everyone here on crimson daggers, firstly i would like to say a big thankyou to Dan and Warren for doing all this for us, i really appreciate being a part of this community now and im looking forward to getting stuck in to my first bloodsports event and hopefully getting some constructive critisism to motivate me to do better.

With that out the way... Hello !! My name is Sam, Im 18 and currently im living in cornwall in the uk, im at the final few weeks of college now doing my art and design diploma. In september hopefull if i get the grades i will be going to study Games oncept Design at Staffordshire University. I am really excited to go and i hope that it will help to boost me and give me the push i need to get my skills up and running.

Thats about it really guys, i love digital painting absolutely !! I also like to keep in touch with the traditional side of it too and still enjoy painting with acrylics and oils and drawing with pencil and paper. Favourite game series would be gears of war i think just because of the diverse character designs.

Alright thats all, I really am excited to be here !

Thanks !

Hello, my name is Prabu. I am 25 years old & from Bharat.

I had many interests as a kid but now I just have a lot of issues at hand. Somehow I've let my issues grow bit by bit which in turn sapped the joy out of my hobbies. cant even muster the energy to draw...which sucks.

So I have decided to get better, deal with my problems & not be pessimistic.

I really hope I get to know you all & be friends.


TLDR: I am gonna get better, try new things & make new friends :).

This is kinda like the first day of school when you have to stand up and tell everyone your name and where you're from, huh? scary

Anyway, hello everyone! My name is Eleonor aka gravity-zero, I'm 23 and I'm from Portugal.
I'm an art student, I've been for quite some time - unfortunately that doesn't mean I'm amazing at art or anything - and I think, in a way, I will always consider myself an art student.
That said, I'm looking forward to learn what this amazing community has to teach, and hopefully learn what I can offer as well! :D

If you want to take a quick look at my work, you can see it here - http://gravity-zero.deviantart.com/

Hi daggers

I am just your casual guy from germany, hammering the tablet and filling sketchbooks.

If you have a mirror on your desk so you can remember you have a face and a human nature aside from having hands hammering and painting stuff, we should find plenty of topics.. or work... or something.

cheers
.. i think my name was Tim
