Hello everyone!
I recently stumbled upon this website when I was searching for "Character Generators" on Google. I came across http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-1063.html and was really impressed by the character generator that Dennis Kutsenko made. I wish I knew how to make one like that myself.
So once I found that thread I was curious about a forums named "Crimson Daggers", thinking it was a sort of gaming or RP forums. Then to my pleasant surprise I saw that it was a community for artists. Unfortunately I couldn't find a description or introduction for the site itself, so I'm still a bit clueless to what it really is and it's background, etc. Even with that thought it tempted me enough to want to join it.
I'm an aspiring artist, and even though I'm probably a bit older than some of the people here (28 years old) I'd still like to become a professional artist someday and have a career in art. I still have a long ways to go and really need to work on improving my skill, but I'm not going to give up on that goal.
I'd love to be a character concept artist, illustrator, children's booth author/illustrator, and... a few other things that interest me, but not sure when any of that is going to happen. For now I'm mostly doing art commissions online and have some of my artwork up at a few local art galleries.
For the past few months I've had a pretty bad art/creative block. So I'm hoping by joining the Crimson Blades forums I'll be inspired and motivated to improve and make new artwork. It'd be also great to meet other artists and potentially make some online pals.
I have a Wacom Intuos 4 tablet and use Photoshop CC. I'd eventually like to get a Cintiq but those are super expensive, so... >.> We'll see about that.
I've only been doing digital art for the past 3 to 4 years or so, which is when I decided I wanted to pursue art as a career.
I look forward to getting involved with this community and would be more than happy to talk and discuss art and art related subjects with anyone interested! Also, if there's anything I should know about this community, the forums, what's to be expected of me, etc, please let me know! I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks! :)
