Dude you're a painting machine...
Zoo doodle question: how do you hold a sketchbook, a brush, and a water container all at once to do those ink wash studies? Don't your arms die after 5 minutes? Or it is just my arms are disgracefully weak?
I used to think game concept artist is what I should be too. Even went back to grad school thinking that. Now that I'm out, I don't feel like I want to fight off all the competitions, then dedicate 10 hours a day into making games. ... unless it's Firaxis. But the point is you won't know unless you give it a go, and listen to your instincts, even if it's telling you to painfully change course.
When you do those color, digital studies, do you always keep the whole canvas on screen when it's bigger than your screen, or do you zoom in to paint? I've never liked doing studies on computer because I can't see the whole "canvas" together. Also I haven't transitioned to picking color from the wheel instead of mixing them on a palette. I want to get into color digital studies though, because it should be less hassle/mess than setting up paint and paper...I think.
