ABANDONED HIDEOUT

Here is a portrait of a friend i did.


And also something i need help with. Im doing this new illustration, and i just finished watching game of thrones season 1-4 and i was like.. Fuck... i wanna paint a duo just like the Hound and Arya.. so.. big ass ugly dude and little girl. So im trying to figure out the composition. The biggest problem im running into is that I have my characters kind of striking a pose, the big dude is wipping off his bloody sword and the girl is like just making a cool pose. So as im trying to make sense of it i tried putting dead boddies around the composition, but its mkaing everything look so crowded, and they dont really fit. Dont know if not putting them in though, would make it look weird that they are making a pose and nothing is really happening. Then again, thats what most of the cryptids cards look like.

[/quote]@Jeso: I'm freelancing, doing a bunch of different things. Card art, online game banners, book illustrations, indie game environments, matte paints and concept work for a movie and documentary. Incidentally I'm in the middle of Hollywood right now for the next week so not much work from me. It's a such a superficial place, no way I would live here.[quote]


Yo Amit, any advice for someone trying to get that first job? tips and tricks? cheat codes? lol, Im still trying to work my portfolio to be able to get work.


If you guys click on my portfolio link in my signature, do you guys think I could take on low lvl card art jobs? like those from Fantasy flight games or character illustrations for PAIZO? those are what im aiming at for my first pro gigs.
