Thanks, Dude!

have I tried finding work?
I've had lucrative offers to do free work for exposure.

Basically I'd love to have enough passion to draw for a living, but I would also like enough cheddar to keep food on the table and a roof over my head. Sadly I sold out. I work at a supermarket and own a house.
But I've been trying to rekindle a love for art. Bought a journal and have been trying to fill it up with inked drawings. When I do that, getting back into comic making and self publishing doesn't seem so hard.

Remind me to commission you some time, you really do have talent for this field.

I--

actually I'm not sure, I used a picture of myself to reference the pose but I was wearing shoes at the time.

I drew socks on her feet because the toes were making me angry

HOW DO YOU WORK ZE MAGICS

Dire · **Posted:** Sun Oct 12, 2014 7:51 pm

It's called hard work and attention to detail.

@ Cori, the feet really impressed me too, that and the expression on the face. The gradient on the tunic is particularly cool too, it looks like you hand coloured instead of using a gradient fill.

Hey, anyone here willing to do me a small little logo for free? It's nothing overly complicated, it's just for a steam curator group I plan on starting that's similar to Extra Credits.

If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it.

That's because it's not a gradient fill! I just used a 'rough edge' watercolor brush and painted the three colors into each other.

Inking some stuff I've had lying around for ages. The line weights could have been better planned but I've content overall.

This is really cute, are you going to color it?

It's so cool looking back at your finished project and your sketch. Like I'm currently at the point where my final product usually looks better than my sketch when some ways back it was usually the opposite. I sketch extremely loose from what I want so it's really weird seeing how different the sketch and final product looks. Like wow, I'm pretty pop flyin' with this. Untill I start hating it 2 weeks later.

Couple of pieces intended to tie together. The second one in particular is supposed to be fairly repetitive as just some kind of background thing.
