I've been following the community events for over a year but just now I managed to get some time to get in. I really want to improve, I don't have much free time to draw, but I'll try to do my best and participate from now on.
I just posted (didn't finish it though) something for the bloodsports 14 and already started my piece for bloodsports 15...
You are all great artists, I've seen awesome art here.
Hello everyone! I have been lurking here for a little while leering at all the sexy posts from a distance. Today I thought I would introduce myself. I am very curious, excited and a little terrified to be here - I am sure it will all turn out well and hopefully I can participate in some hang outs, shoot the breeze, conjure up new flava for my art and.... not annoy anyone to death.
First of all, sorry if I make some faults in English, I'm a french CG student in Paris.
It's been few month (maybe years) that I discovered this forum and since I visited it few times but, because of my level I was too shy to register and introduce myself.
But your "bloodsports" and contests seams so cool that I want to be part of it.
Hello all! new to the forum so i figure an introduction is in order. My name is Ian, Im 22 and living in Los Angeles, currently attending the 3 year program at Gnomon School of Visual Effects, Hoping to get somewhere in the video game industry but my heart is more in concept art and illustration, I have drawn/doodled my whole life but it wasnt till i started gnomon that i really understood what being a concept artist was so i have been buckling down and trying to paint as much as i can, im Sure i have tons to learn from all of you and i cant wait to get into this.
I also wanted to start a google hangout group of painters so anyone interested let me know! always have fun watching my fav. artists hangout and shoot the shit while they paint and i love that atmosphere and i want to see it happen with all artists, not just the ones who can support the viewers.
Hit a wall in my progress lately, and I was hoping you fine folks could help. It seems like everyone here is pretty serious about getting better, so I thought I'd try posting some stuff.
By the way, is there a faq or anything on posting images? I feel dumb for even asking, but I tried posting something just as a test run and I couldn't get it to show properly. Any tips?
Hey there. My name is Jim. I've got a friend or two here and have been meaning to join and I finally did. Looking forward to doing some art and getting better.
I'm Damien Saelak and I like to party. jk I'm an obviously new here! I joined to "feel less alone" haha (like it says on the front page)
When i first heard of this community I didn't know that it was an online community with sharing artists. I thought it was an online coarse or some sort of online training school where you had to pay, kinda like schoolism or something. So i never bothered in checking it out cus quite honestly I'm broke haha
I'm currently 23, a college drop out (may go back) and I'm trying to go pro with my art like everyone else on these threads. Anyways I think its awesome how this is a learning environment with working professionals, and even more awesome that information is free! So Sweeet!!! So please accept meeee haha
Also Ive kinda been in a slump ever since I had to move back home with my mother :\ I've been less productive/motivated this year, but I'm determined to turn my life around and become what I origially set out to be. And when surrounded by others on the same quest is way more motivating than sitting around looking at awesome paintings and wondering what it must be like to paint so well. I need to make this dream a reality, so thanks to everyone and I'll try to participate as best I can!
If you like my work and think I'd do well in a certain illustraion feild PLEASE TELL ME!! I'm trying power level my art to get on my feet.
you can check out my work at damiensaelak.deviantart.com or facebook
Hey guys, I heard of CD at polycount. I've been a 3d artist in games for a long time, I want to get better at concept art and more traditional skills in general. This seems to be the place to do that.
Looking forward to working on some arts here and learning.
I came from Myrmirada's Livestream and met a bunch of people whom as a result got me here. Anyways, I'm most active in deviantART therefore found-able as XaVarK @dA despite my lack of artworks...
Will be making a sketchbook soon so... look forward to it, i guess..?
I'm not really much of an anime/ manga person but since my friends had me draw this, I'll use it as part of my intro.
