i just made an account for this website because i thought this place gave critiques on your drawings? i want to get much better at painting. and anatomy and backgrounds too.

i guess i have to figure out how to work this site first
if im not supposed to post this here, then please tell me U_U'

Hi guys!

First of all I want to introduce myself... I live in Germany, I'm 23 years old, I have two cats and I study something called "Intermedia Design" ;)
I stumbled upon the Crimson Daggers a while ago and have gone through a lot of threads and sketchbooks. There are so many talented people here! So I decided to join.
I really want to become better at what I do and when I look at the things I've done in the past year, I DO see a progress... but (maybe some of you know that feeling): I feel I can't get better fast enough.
I just got my Bachelor of Arts degree and am now working on my portfolio for the MA admissions... (there are only 5 spots available.) So that's one thing I have to get done in the next few weeks :s
I work hard, I love what I do but of course I have tons left to learn... so I'll start right here ;)

Hey there! I'm Moh, and I'm a full-time 2D artist (working mainly in Vectors). Since having a fulltime job as a vector artist 2 years ago, I've become quite rusty in my conceptual art paintings and sketches. I hope by joining Crimson Daggers I can get back up to speed and learn lots of new things and meet great people.

Thanks for having me!

Hey There,

My name is David Shearer aka davidtheartist. I am a freelance illustrator and graphic designer from BC Canada. Im 28 years old, havent gone to art college, was in AP art in highschool, and have been working in art as much career since I graduated in 2003. Ive had my freelance business since 2007.

I spent a lot of my years on conceptart.org and am now looking for a new home since that site seems to be going down. Dave Rapoza and Daniel seem to have a great thing going on here so Im happy to come join. It feels like there are people here who are eager to grow.

I think conceptart.org went wrong because they became too diluted. Their site became over-saturated with different rooms you could visit, places you could go, and outside links to classes. They became greedy and tried to sell more learning than giving it for free, which in a way is understandable. But in my mind it killed the community. We need limited rooms, specific places to put things, and the goal should always be to providing a great experience for those who are aiming high.

i appreciate this new forum and hope I can add to it!

Hello Daggers! I'm new here, that's why I'm introduce myself, right ?) My name is Nikita and I'm from Ukraine (It is not part of Rassia! at least for now o.O) just a joke)
I like to draw and i want to be an awesome artist :) Who don't ? Seriously I started drawing at october 30, 2012 when I saw a painting of my penfriend from social networking site ) And after this at october 31 i connected my tablet (i tried to draw before) and started to draw something. And until now I'm learning the art of drawing. Hah, not a bad story turned out ... I hope I am not wrong thinking that this forum (saying this, I mean you guys:blush: ) can really help me to improve my skills. Ahah Courage on my avatar saying "Hello guys" too )

Sorry for my English if i did some mistakes.

So i think next step that i should do here: make my sketch book thread ?

Well hey everybody. My name is RJ Palmer and I am a freelance concept artist and illustrator living in San Francisco. I've been feeling my level of improvement has been stagnating. As soon as you start receiving comments like "amazing as usual", I feel like its time to start focusing on changing up your level. I just outlined a plan for myself to really try and do studies with much greater regularity as opposed to whenever I might be in the mood or avoiding a job I don't want to work on.

Long story short, I'll try to update here regularly. Nice to meet you guys. You can check out my work here: my deviantART account and my tumblr . There is even a page on my tumblr just for my studies here

Hi there, my name is Jo Habbel from Germany and i stumbled upon the daggers in 2012 but all the awesome artworks here kinda frightens me too much to join.
So in 2013 i want to bite the bullet an jump right into the action!
I´m 22 years old and a student of fine-arts and communicational-designs somwhere near cologne. I really want to push my art skills to the next level, so this is the best place to start i guess! I work every day to reach this goal, even if i have to sacrifice nearly all my free time for this

greetings to all of you, keep up you awesome work that inspires me so much!!

Jo

Hi,
my name is Igor Ivanovic, I'm from Serbia, Novi Sad. Well, I saw your community and got instantly really inspired. I wanted to be a part of it so hello. I was drawing my whole life but not seriously. I started practicing seriously 3 months ago when I discovered that you can actually do this for a living... I couldn't believe so I dedicated my life to it... there is no going back now :). Btw I am 22, have a diploma in Theology, and am a natural bodybuilder...

My Sketchbook I just started: http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread....oob-to-pro

Hello everyone,

Well, this is my first post in here, totally new. I've been painting for a while but just until recently decided to tackle the places where I encountered issues, so I hope to post a lot of work here and get feedback and grow as an artist!

Here's a link to my site and two of my latest images.
