Arch's Book of Stuff

Amazing studies, your pencil skills are really great as is your anatomy, but it's not translating to digital yet, if you wanna go that rout might want to start doing 50/50 trad/digital, even with gestures, to get the hang of it.

On work, starting as an artist is very dodgy, I'm going to say this with my personal experience so it might not hold 100% true, being in another country/culture and all that. At the beggining is very hard to work on something you like doing, nigh on impossible because it's mostly looking to make contacts and showing how reliable you are and it will be so for awhile, swallowing bad projects, bad clients, bad cash, getting fucked over but, although it seems bad it helps you grow and get experience on how to do these things. You do this until you've gotten enough money for yourself or until you find your art to be at a level where YOU can choose the projects, and not the projects choosing you. It is hard but if it was easy anyone would do it.
Don't fool yourself thinking art is not commercial, artists need to monetize or else every artist ever would die of young age from hunger, unless they are born rich and they just live on their mom's basement.
