Hi All

Hi All!

So im super stoked to be getting started on this site :) Ill admit i've been wishy washying away in the background since 2015 and not really making any progress, but for the very first time ive decided to do something active and say hello! 



Ive just submitted a sketchbook thread which you can look at here if you like:

All in all, i've decided to kick myself up the bum now that im finishing up with university, so that i can start with a disciplined regime and get my illustration work up to the standard that i want it to be.

I see so many beautiful pieces of artwork featured around here and on facebook and i always think to myself in the most pitiful voice "Awwwwwww i wish iiii could paint like thaaaat xD" and then i end up saying to myself "Well, like? Get some bloody work done then?? Yer lazy nincompoop???" And today i've finally found the resolution to do so haha.

...I talk to myself alot, pay no attention.



So! Glad to be here :) hope to make some friends, aquaintances and colleagues of like minded individuals up for a fun (and most likely gruelling) time of becoming awesome artists :D And thanks for reading my 'hello' post ;)

Hi Liloujay and belated welcome to the Crimson Daggers. As you may already know, this is a great place to be at! It's a Goldilocks zone for artists in my opinion. It's unlike Facebook or dA, where it's mostly likes and adoration. And it's unlike reddit or 4chan, where it's a no-holds-barred, rip you to shreds kind of ordeal. CD has a balanced dosage of both, where it's not too nice and not too mean either. I trust the lot because they have a good eye for craft.

There are community challenges such as CHOW (Character of the Week) hosted by Jak [http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-7...02702.html] and Crimson Crucible hosted by Piotr and Amit [https://crimsoncrucible.wordpress.com/20...e-4-title/]

Here's to hoping you become an active member!
