    Default AJCCtastic! Hardcore learning


    Hey guys, new name(old one was twoexzee), new thread. Lets do it right this time around.

    I'm a 23 yo self-taught Spanish student. Dropped from college when I found that I could actually, through hard work, become a great artist and live from art. Really wish I'd known earlier instead of being taught that my only future was an engineering or whatever :/.


    But in any case, that was the past, now its time to make my own future, please help me through my adventure.



    Pleased to meet you guys, GL HF.

      My earlier thread felt like such a mess that I figured starting over would be the right thing to do.

      I stopped updating due to working on a windows phone project (Which I'm not sure is gonna come out in the end ), here is what I did for it

        These past two days stuff, not enough, not good enough.
        I feel I should dig into books and copy the hell out of them.

            another week bites the dust

            I still think i should draw a lot more per day, but for that I feel I would need to completely isolate myself, but people would feel bad if I did.

            Anyone got any pointers on what I should focus more on? I feel so damn lost, guess I should dig deeper into the forums.

            See ya next time

              Should do some painting studies at some point I guess, and some original stuff too.

                    Been away for 2 weeks for various reasons, the most important its that I had a chance to get a job in a company for which I spent some time tiring to figure out how to do speed-paintings (Which is what they needed)

                    These are 1-1,5 hour practice pics (I doubt that can be considered speed painting)

                    Pretty shitty in general, but it was great since it showed me many things I'm still way bad at.

                    I'm still pretty lost and don't know where should I put my efforts, hopefully just keep doing what I have been till now will be enough... beside painting a lot more, need to keep working on those studies.

                                Wanted to try painting them like this from now on, but i get the feeling there's other photos which are better for photo-studying, any advice about that?

                                30 mins, looks shitty but with time they will get better (or so I hope)
