Hi people!

I'm not very good at drawing or painting or art, but I would like to improve. I do consume copious quantities of caffeine which has resulted in permanently unsteady hands; a condition which is, as far as I can tell, irreversible. It's noticeable, but not so terrible that it can't be overcome (sucks when I try to play FPS games though). Anyways, here's a sample of what I can do when I'm being competent!

A dragonborn character and his familiar.


A Sketch of Yggdrasil


I'll probably lurk around for awhile.

See you around!

Hey guys whats up? My name is Josh, I'm here to improve my skillz. So that I can pay the billz. I have a 4 year in animation but I had given up on art as a career after graduating. Looking to change that ;) I'm looking to buckle down and improve my illustration skills at the moment. I need a lot of help...So I will see you all soon! ha

hello im kadomaru, also known as José Luna, I am 18 and I live in Argentina. I want to be a concept artist and i´m teaching myself, I also study industrial design at my local univesity. I hope to learn a lot here and to help if i can. :D

So hey! I'm Joshua, and I've heard of CD for a long time now. However, just today, actually yesterday I decided I would join up. I'm that guy that sucked all his life and never really gave art a go. And now he's all old and shit, and wants to see if one final run can get him to the promised land. Regardless of merit, or accomplishment, or even employment. I mostly want to do it for self, so I can die not having pissed away whatever ability I might have had. Anyways. I'm very interested in surrounding myself with artsy types, as I have none IRL. I also want further inspiration, because I intend to push my ass very hard. I have so much to catch up on. I've got about 45 days of Photoshop and tablet experience. And it's hard as hell to draw with. So I tend to stay away from traditional mainly until I can float with the tablet some. Also, I just need to learn everything, because I'm very week when it comes to art speak. Anyways, feel free to say hey, or check my stuff out or offer crits, or completely ignore me. Whatever works. Peace!

Hi My name is Sebastian Horoszko and I'm a wannabe professional digital artist from Poland.
I started painting digitally after watching some of Dave Rapoza's work (a Major inspiration for me), and finally I found the forum I was looking for for a long time.
I'm here to stretch my doubtful skills to become a professional some day. I'm mostly self-taught (with the exceptions of some youtube.com tutorials) Some of my pieces are found here:

I'm hoping to find some constructive criticism and ways to improve here.

Hey daggers !! :D I'm honored to be in such a great community and I feel very motivated being around you guys !
My name is Oliver Spasovski, most known on the internet as eXecutex. I'm 17 (soon to be 18)
There's a lot to tell about my history. I'm a gamer, 3d artist, 2d artist, I play basketball, on a guitar. All in one :D
Heh, well yea I started to deal with art when i was at age 8 or something :) My first digital tool is Photoshop. I know this program for so long, as I guess I grew up with it. But with the time something changed my mind about 3d and I started messing up around 3DS Max, Cinema 4D and even ZBrush and that was around 4-6 years ago. A lot of things happened to me, which I can't explain that here, because i can't even fulfill this thread :D Hehe, joke, but it's true.
With my 3D skills i'm nearly touching the advanced level, I guess, and I'm preparing to aim for professionalism. 1 months ago I bought a pen tablet(Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch) and now I'm in the base of learning the way of drawing/painting. I'm watching a lot of tutorials, attending on livestreams, as well as on google hangout with such great experienced people. Before I join I thought I'd expect too much from you guys and I did and I'm very thankful.

This is such a great community and I hope it'll still be as it is now :)

My name's Mike Burns. I've been following the streams for a while now but I haven't looked through the forum until now.

You can check out my work at: http://artburns.blogspot.com/

To give some background on my life/career situation, I'm about 2 years out of school having graduated from Syracuse University's Illustration department. I have quite a large amount of money owed in student loans so I have a crap part-time job to pay the bills and have a steady flow of income. In addition I work freelance fantasy art whenever I can grab it, and I've also done a little work in other genres, but fantasy is my main focus.

The reason I finally made a profile on here is that lately I've been falling into slumps with my work way too much. When I'm not working on a job I find it hard to decide what to do with my free time, and since I can do anything I wind up wasting all my time figuring out what to do and wind up doing nothing way too often. I'm hoping that I can become a part of this awesome community and hopefully recharge myself creatively. Thanks for reading, hope to talk to you all soon.
