Hi. I'll start with admitting I'm a little nervous. I've never posted any of my work. My name's Ioana-Luiza, I'm 22 and from Brasov, Romania. I found out about the Crimson Daggers in one of Alex Negrea's interviews with Sycra. I'm really excited to learn everything I can from such an amazing and diverse group of people!

Hope you guys have a lovely week!

Hi, I'm Paola.

I'm 19 and a art school dropout.

My skills are mediocre at best, but I hope this site will aid me in becoming the independent professional illustrator I dream of being.

I hope we can become friends!

Here's a portrait:

Like most of people here, I heard plenty of goodthings about Crimson Daggers, I already participated just before I left for Australia to hangout videos and was heaps of fun and heaps of discoveries but quite frustrating to not keep watching because of OZ.
Now that I do have an fluent internet I come back to you and make in practice my communication to share things and tips if possible and to learn from you guys, which most of the time are great and understanding.

Btw you have my head on the top of this post to conclude a good introducing I guess and to allow you to put a head on a name.
If any questions feel free to comment .

Hey everyone! I am new here, and just wanted to say hi. I'm not professional. I'm 14. I have been doing art for 4 years seriously. I just got my first tablet, so my workflow is faster now. I think that will make it easier to get myself out there.
My deviant art is Izaakshoelaces.deviantart.com. I have a lot more work up on there currently.

Hi Crimsons !
The name is Yann, I'm French and heroic fantasy fan. I started drawing RPG characters from the games we played with my older brother. Now I plan to earn my life with my art. It was an impossible dream for me for years, then I understood the most impotant in life is to be happy, doing what you love. So I give me 2 years to have a decent professionnal portfolio .
This is what brings me here. I came first here following a Dave Rapoza link. After reading some threads I felt like joining you all.
I'll show you what I have in another section.

Hello all,
I've been recommended to this community a while back and have only gotten around to actually making an account today.

some of my stuff http://drawcrowd.com/radianjani

Anyway, it's very exciting to finally become a part of the CD community and I look forward to learn loads from everyone!

Quick question:
I've never been a forum guy, so this is all very new to me but I was wondering, how do I upload pictures into the threads? (I'm guessing the "Attachments" bar on the bottom？)

Hi guys,
Ive heard great things about this place for a long time, and I just cant help feeling left out.
My name is Dylan you can find my work here: http://www.dylanchoonhachat.com/

Im 23 and for awhile now, Ive been feeling like I have not improved in a long time when it comes to illustration/concept art or digital painting in general. I want to get better and start creating a body of work that is consistent. Im looking forward to learning from you guys so thank you in advance :)

Hey fellas! My name is Carlos Amaral and I’m a newbie aspiring to be concept artist and illustrator from Portugal. I’ve always liked to draw but just recently decided that this is what I really wanted to do for a living, so I started working hard studying the most I can to get the basics before going to college.
I joined this awesome forum some time ago when Tul started a mentoring program… Since then I’ve been checking how you guys are helpful and motivated and how your works motivate me. I guess it’s time for me to be more active and interact more with y’all.
Count on me to share feedback, techniques, resources, potatoes and stuff. Cheers!

Long story short: my other account was banned because my post was thought to be a spam in a thread where I tried to post several links to free tutorials. I guess posting numerous links in a post is considered spammy around here? Sorry about that!

Anyway, I'm back with a new account since I couldn't find any help to remove me from being banned :(

Short bio:
My background is in industrial design and I'm currently transitioning into doing full-time concept design and visual development. Here's my design portfolio for whoever's interested to check out www.adachiu.me

My goal here is to learn, share, and contribute to the community.

I hope to meet some new friends here and maybe some study buddies as well!
