Hello,
my name is Hermann Kromer, also known as AranniHK on DeviantArt, I'm 20 years old and I'm from Russia.
I started out pretty late, like one year ago. Since I took it from that point more serious, I wanted to improve every day, because I lost alot of time I could've used. I hope, that by joining this community I can learn alot of stuff and get my work critiqued (that's very important to me, as I don't know where I make mistakes).

Cheers, AranniHK

Happy New Years everyone. Hope you all had a enjoyable day.

I've come to Crimson Daggers as part of a resolution to keep myself focused on improving (even more so than I already am trying). I've heard a couple neat things about the community through various youtube artists and decided to give it a shot myself.

Pretty hyped to check out what's around the forums. Maybe have a go at the sketchbook section or forge some concepts for the challenges right away, etc. Hopefully I'll get to meet some nice, merciless people when it comes to critiques and whatnot.

Hello, I am The Kind. My given name however is Harley. I currently live in Florida, USA.

I've joined because I've never taken art seriously, and I want that to change. I've drawn for as long as I can remember, but haven't really ever drawn from life, or imagination, and i mostly copied images I liked, or certain artists works.

Ever since September, I've begun studying art, trying to draw from imagination, and trying to go back to the basics.

Hopefully this community will help keep my focus, and provide criticism, and guidance to great information, making some friends along the way.

Hm.. not very good with introductions. Just a high school senior with mediocre drawings and teen angst. I draw in an anime-esque style, but once in awhile I try to get into semi-realism. I've been drawing more often now so that I can try to improve..( ･ᴗ･̥̥̥ )

Hi, Illustrator from South Africa: some of my current personal work http://fraxture.deviantart.com/gallery/

Hi guys, my name is Fernando, I am 22 years old and I am a Brazilian concept artist. It took me a long time to realize that I could be an artist for living, eventhough I always loved to paint since I was a kid, I've never took it seriously until last year, when I met my current teacher and friend Rick Fernandes. After a drawing course that good feeling that I had when a child came back and I finally decided to take it serious and never stopped studying since then.

While I do know that I've might have started a bit late compared to other great artists I still want and believe that I can be a good artist and live being an artist.

My technique is still developing of course, I started with traditional drawing, then went straight to digital painting (struggled a bit with the tablet, but I think I'm getting better now :D ).

My goal is that eventually my art will be able to make people stop and look at it, and everytime they look there's something new and exciting about it, and yes, I know this will be challenging and all, but I just feel like it would be awesome to have your art to be looked as a new and unique piece, and people will have a good time and enjoy looking at it.

Don't worry, I know I am probably more than 10 years from achieving that, so here are my short-mid goals and what I expect to do here with you guys.

First I want to make my digital drawing and painting techniques more solid, I still don't have a proccess that I follow to every art I make, so I'm still learning what path is better for me to get a finished art that I enjoy looking at. I eventually want to find a good partner, I really loved that, someone that will keep challenging you and helping, and you having the chance to do the same to someone, just great! :D

I'll be going to be a little absent next two weeks since x-mas and new year's festival's are coming, but as soon as next year starts I'll be a lot more active here and I hope I can get the most from you guys and help too whenever possible.

Sorry for the long text, I'll just end the bible here, don't want to sound like a crazy guy that never stops talking, is just my excitement of finding this new community coming out. :D

Well, have a nice x-mas and a happy new year everyone! Looking forward to learn as much as I can with you guys! :)
