RP: *huggles* :) Missed you too! Glad to be back! ^_^
NoodleInBox: Thanks! Me too. :D
alexdanila: I'm glad to inspire people. :) Thank you so much. I need all the luck! I wish you the best in your Schoolism! I've seen some of their courses and they are excellent!
John: Yeah, ain't that the truth! Thanks!
Triggerpigking: Yay! You too!! Thanks, I'm so excited!
Artloader: Thanks! :)
ShinOkami: Yep! Sounds like a great plan. Hope I actualize it well. :)
So, after a bit of fumbling with the tablet my sister got me, installing drivers and programs a multitude of times, I finally got a setup that I like. I made a few reeeally lazy sketches that I'm not showing(warm ups, I figure!), but the less-lazy-still-lazy sketches I'll definitely show you guys.
I'm rusty, but it's still there. Just about getting back into it. I have so much support in my life right now that I feel like I don't have any excuses. ;D Plus, I'm going to an intense program in the fall, so best to get into the habit and be ahead of the game.
It's really blowing my mind that this is really happening-- In as soon as December 2018, I'll have had some game art experience, and be headed for an actual future, where I can make money doing what I love. I'm not even sure if I should use the word 'love'. Or even 'passion'. Not 'obsession' either... Hmmm... It's just something which you can get lost in. Like a kind of zen, in-between state of mind, with tranquility and stillness, it flows out of you like a current. It's observing and engaging at the same time. Excitement and thrill, and tempering calm.
And that's why I somehow have all of the confidence in myself that I can do this, and work at this. I can succeed as a concept artist. I'm not sure if I'm going to be a "concept artist", but I know that I'll do art in the industry. This program is an opportunity to try everything, and get to know all of the aspects of the art side of the pipeline. I can find out my piece in the puzzle.
For now, I continue to practice.
Here are those less-lazy-still-lazy sketches.
A couple of photo sketches, and the back of my boyfriend's head. :3
