Hello All! I'm a brand new digital artist, exploring different forums in search of places were I can post my art and get meaningful, helpful critiques to help me grow and become better! I started practicing almost 5 months ago, and when I graduated 2 months ago I began practicing about 18 hours a day (except for those days where I neglect sleep altogether). I hope everyone will help me grow as an artist here!

I'm just a fledgling draftsman and dreamer here, hoping to land a good position in an art college so that I can devote my life to art, and creating fantastic creatures, characters, and stories through 2D and 3D images!

Hopefully this website will help me out tons in my quest.

Just joined this awesome forum. I am a software developer that wants to become a really good artist. My long term goal is to become good enough to work as a professional 2d artist in the game/movie industry (but I have a long way to go heh =). I am really motivated and hardworking and my main reason the join this forum is to hang out with other artists and help them(when I get good enough =)), participate in groups/challenges and get some critique that will help me achieve my long term goal! =). Nice to meet you all !

Hi everybody, I'm Nick, currently in Denver CO, but looking to relocate to San Francisco pretty soon here. I'm trying to boost my skills as a painter so that I can get into the freelance biz.

Hi. My name is Valency. I'm a senior year graphic design student in the U.S. currently. I've mostly done logos and generic painting, but not a whole lot in the vein that you guys do. I have, however, followed several of you for a bit now and decided it was high time that I join. You guys are the best of the best and I'd like to follow that if I may.

My drawing skills are, at best, mediocre. You can get a glimpse of what I'm currently capable of here: http://valencygraphics.deviantart.com/ga...?catpath=/ There's nothing earth-shattering, but I'd like to get there and put in the hours this next year to do it. I really think that my graphics would improve drastically if I can get some rudimentary basics down. I have a few goals already in mind:

1. Speedpainting a day. Kind of like a photographer's "photo a day for a year," this is for warm-up, practice, work, or all three. I have no idea what I'll do each day, but if you folks have some pointers, it won't go unappreciated!
2. (At least a) Portrait a week via /r/redditgetsdrawn. I know one of the ways you get better at subjects and matter is to keep drawing and drawing and drawing. Redditgetsdrawn seems to be a decent place to get some subject matter that I can use This will be the first year that I get extremely involved in making sure this is a priority (after schoolwork, of course!).

Any tips, tricks, critiques, slams, praises, compliments, ridicules, or meh's are welcome to me. I learn the most from constructive critique and having reasons for the change indicated explained to me.

First tip I would need: I just got an intuos 4 small. I am super excited to test it out once I get to school, but I'm wondering if there's a guide out there to give me an idea of how to set it up in a way that's suitable for working on painting or just to start out with until I figure out how I want to set it up? Thanks and hope to see you all very soon. :D

Hi ppl,
to not feel that alone in my studies I decided to join up with an army of brush warriors - the so famous Crimson Daggers :)


About me , well I do here and there some minor freelance stuff my goal is in next 3- 6 months to reach more proffesional level specializing mostly in the illustration area that includes fantasy females above everything else.



Almost everything I do is posted in my CA sketchbook
I started recently matijavuk.tumblr.com blog, you can follow my art there too
And this is my FACEBOOK link if you wanna make friends, chat, watch art :)

My name is Kevin Hamon, 25, French, working as a web art director in Copenhagen.
No art school or design school background, I have always been interested by creating universes, drawing is the way I choose.

I am pretty good with interactivity and my first attempt to combine both of my skills gave nevermindthebullets.com (2010).
It's been a lot of trainings and studies since then, and I am now adding writing to my toolbox. Because a beautiful image without a story is worthless, I am now focusing most of my spare time on a project woodboy.fr. And much more to see about that last one in my Summer Pitch post.

Some stuff I did



Thanks for all the energy you guys spend to teach and motivate all of us.

Hey folks. I've been following the Crimson Daggers youtube channel for at least a year now, but after seeing the Judas Priest Bloodsports challenge, I definitively want to get in on this side of the community too. My name's Tyler and I'm currently a student/sort of professional-ish freelance sculptor, but I really want to get into concept art and illustration. Thanks for having me!
