Hi,
My name is Dwayne and I am currently a comic book artist but I am looking into concept art, character artist, and illustration. So I am currently learning digital painting and ZBrush so I can be more marketable.
Thanks for reading!

Hello guys, my name is Jaywyr, 19 years old and I'm a student in video game at LISAA and I live in Paris.
Before all, i wanna you know that my skill in english is bad, but don't worry! google translation is my best friend.
I came on this forum because i wanna up my skill in painting but on zbrush too ^^.
In more, i hope learn english in communicting with you and sure exchange coment and ideas in my artwork (personnal and in school).

Bye ^^

My name's Mike Burns. I've been following the streams for a while now but I haven't looked through the forum until now.

You can check out my work at: http://artburns.blogspot.com/

To give some background on my life/career situation, I'm about 2 years out of school having graduated from Syracuse University's Illustration department. I have quite a large amount of money owed in student loans so I have a crap part-time job to pay the bills and have a steady flow of income. In addition I work freelance fantasy art whenever I can grab it, and I've also done a little work in other genres, but fantasy is my main focus.

The reason I finally made a profile on here is that lately I've been falling into slumps with my work way too much. When I'm not working on a job I find it hard to decide what to do with my free time, and since I can do anything I wind up wasting all my time figuring out what to do and wind up doing nothing way too often. I'm hoping that I can become a part of this awesome community and hopefully recharge myself creatively. Thanks for reading, hope to talk to you all soon.

Hey everyone,

Hi!
So... I've had been viewing this forum since November, I think and I've decided to create my own profile. My name is Rafał Dobosz, I'm from Poland and I am a great fan of all your works guys.

I asked my parents to buy me a Tablet last year, but I am very lazy person and I didn't work as much as I should.
But today is my 17th birthday and I'm going to do daily studies and take a part in this forum.

As I wrote there isn't much but here are my stuff:

Hey! I've heard about this place quite a bit throughout the years. I figured its time to sign on to another forum. I think I'll like this one better.

Anywho, I'm a freelancer living in my parents house, milking the situation until I'm good enough to start making money. I work a day job during the day, and at night, I don my cape and loincloth and sit down and draw and paint until I pass out or go to bed or both.

Hello everyone! :)

I've been lurking crimson daggers for quite some time now. I usually chat a bit on livestream on and off but most of the time I work during streams so you might not have seen my name pop up too much.

Anyway I'm Jordy, I'm from Belgium - I recently graduated and have a degree in digital arts (my school sucked but at least I learned some 3D - in particular Zbrush is relevant and handy) there and got a taste of the game industry)

I was offered a full time job at a relatively big game studio, working in house as a 3D artist and concept artist (bit all-round) I worked on cliché fantasy games. In theory this was my dream but I discovered that it just... sucked. So after my 4 month internship I kindly declined their offer (shocking all my school and their company, because they are the *only* and biggest game studio in my country) and decided to go freelancer full time - because fuck it.

I've always been very ambitious and I like to control my own fate rather than produce 2 3D props a day, factory style, for a company of which I have no idea what it is doing.

I've been going for about 4 months now, full time. Started very casual, with literally 0 clients but I've been very quickly improving my skill and client list and overal been very surprised at how well this is working out. I can proudly say I'm starting to get swamped in pretty nicely payed stuff, and that I have decline work because I'm full for the next month (felt really cool the first time)
That said I live relatively humbly (perfect at the beginning of my carreer) so it doesn't take much to make more than I spend.

Other than working on NDA stuff I do daily sketches and studies - lately been doing 2 or more per day. (You can find these on my facebook art page) I live stream some times and generally just spam the shit out of every social media there is.

So here are some of my links! (Best one if you want to keep up to date is my FB page.)

The reason I decided to actually stop lurking and post stuff here is because ever since I started working and finished school I'm definitely missing a "community" sense in my life, and you guys basically rock. I will definitely start livestreaming more of my studies since so far doing them alone with little feedback only helps so much. (and isn't as fun)

Cheers!

Jordy

I am proud to say that I am extremely happy I found this wonderful amazing extravagant awesome great community! (thanks to Black for referring me) I've been drawing all my life but I just recently started taking it seriously! (for around 1-2 weeks)

I enjoy expressing my feelings on paper or Photoshop and feel like I need to better myself as an artist! I crave knowledge and have been working hard to become better at drawing! I'll open a sketch book thread after i finish up with this intro thread!

A little information about myself,

I'm 21 years old living in northern California. I love art, hookah, movies, music, games, and family! My father has been an artist for over 30 years (copper art and wood sculpting). I own a Wacom Tablet Intous 3. I honestly am super excited to be here with other aspiring artists and great mentors. I'm here to make you all proud!

Thank you!
