Hey, I'm new to the community, refferred by Sycra. I've been studying under him and he suggested a few ways to get into the artists community and meet other people out there like us. Just a little about me, I'm about to be married in a month so super excited there. I've recently switched my mediums from pencil/photoshop to strictly photoshop and been loving it. I use a 24' Cintiq for painting which definitley has it's ups and downs. Anyone else notice that the last 10 - 15 values of black are all the same pure black? I'm just ranting now :P Well, it's nice to be in your community here and look forward to talking to all of you in the future!
I'm really glad my friend showed me this forum as i've totally hit a wall.. I've been drawing for about 9 weeks, And my latest drawings don't seam to me to be getting any better.. if anything i've gotten worse.. haha I have really high standards on myself and i dont like ANY of my artworks yet.. i draw 6-8 hours a day 5 days a week.. I think im missing something as i just cant seam to do the whole " Hey that mountain looks so detailed! but when i look up close its just so basic it gives the illusion of detail"
I'm following you daggers quit a while now.
It's about time i introduce my self.
I'm Michael "Loomic" Loos and I love painting drawing and creating.
I study communication-design and illustration near Cologne Germany and want to work in the entertainment industry.
With your help I hope to improve and maybe I can be of help too.
Lets grow in our arts together :)
The Goblin Sorcerer below is a sketch i'm working on right now.
Hey guys! I'm from São Paulo, Brazil and i'm 17, i started with drawings when i had 5 or 6, then i started art classes with colored pencils, but i left the classes because the bills ):
But anyway, my dream is work in the future with concept art or illustration (:

Hello Crimson Daggers!
My name is Tyler.
A buddy of mine is a fan of Mr. Dave Rapoza and told me to check out his art and I found this wonderful fantastic thing you guys have going. Although I do not know how steady it is considering you guys are, I am sure, busy people. I have been following the Crimson Daggers for a few months, the best I can, although I have yet to watch a live livestream. I have tried multiple times to get up and watch Dave, Dan and a few other people but our time zones are different, your 9am is my 6am, and nobody was on. I figure you guys are busy but anyways!
I want to learn, I am currently going to a art school, you guys actually talked about it at one point. I am at the Art Institute in Seattle. I am still very much a beginner, I have very little skill but I am determined to improve and I hope with your help I can improve outside of class. I have a hard time studying on my own, so I am looking forward to meeting you all and studying along side each an everyone of you.
I am pretty busy with school but I am fairly free in the mornings and at night. I have very little experience, but I do have a year roughly with photoshop.
I'm Jan and I'm from Germany, but my parents are from Poland, so that's the reason for my Accountname.
I've been working with Photoshop for a year now and I did also a lot of traditional drawing during that last year. I did some drawing before during school, but nothing more then sketches.
I joined that forum because I want to really push my drawing skills, especially with colors with which i really have problems in the moment.
I'm also doing 3d-Sculpting for about 6 months now and overall I concentrate on Characters more then environment and I try to get better with it through studies and life-drawings.
I'd be happy if you have a look at my stuff both on my blog or my cghub-page and would appreciate every critique or tipps! In general I'm trying to get my paintings as realistic as I can - even if I'm still far from this point!
Here are the links for both my blog and my cghub-page:
I attached both a painting and a sculpt I'm currently working on - hope you like it!
For the gladiator sculpt I used a predefined Humansculpt - so basically it's just the armor for the moment.
