Mad World - A Visual Lullaby

Critiques

I can see that you are a developing artist and have just recently started painting digitally. First off, I would have to give you pro...

Just a bit of an update

Thu Apr 23, 2009, 11:11 PM
Currently I am pulling another unneeded all nighter due to lots of caffeine and good progress.

Sorry I haven't been updating, its been a variation of things lately. The projects that are DA worthy can't be posted, at least I was told not to. I'm not under contract (yet) and I was working for maybes. After thoroughly thinking about this subject, I decided to never work for a percentages ever again, unless the company has a decent reputation. Its too iffy. Instead i'm gonna ask for my works to be sold on the spot in order for them to use it (good thing i'm not under contract), if they don't want to spend my requested amount, you'll be seeing a few new works up.

Other than these projects, I've been interning at SMZ Advertising, pretty much the agency that handles graphic design work for Michigan Lotto, Big Boy, Detroit Tigers, Detroit Red Wings, Flag Star Bank, and more. Its kinda fun, they let me be an art director for a few jobs and I got to see a Michigan Lotto commercial be shot in full green screen, it was amazing.

I am now officially a student at College for Creative Studies, i'm almost done with my first semester. I only had a choice for one class because I was still in the other school. Of course I chose figure drawing, in which I feel my figure drawing skills have massively improved (yay). Still not there yet and I still have lots and tons of bunches to learn.

I AM LIKING THE NEW CRITIQUE OPTION!!! I want to throw a new work on and see what I get. Anything to help me improve is useful at this point in time.

Now for the best part, I'm getting my first summer vacation in 5 years haha (since junior year of high school), i'm stoked. Gonna probably be working at SMZ full time, other than that, gonna start a few projects i've been meaning to work on.

Well thats an update, i'll try to get some works up soon.

Heya!
Sorry, took a while before I replied. But yeahh, decided to make an account here and finally added some things...from PST, that is ;-)
Ok, see you around!

Btw that Off The Wall looks good!
:iconjackaloftrades:
No biggie, its actually kind of comforting to see some PST members on DA. See ya around.

Thanks a bunch, keep doing good on your contests, your style is phenomenal, especially since you mix illustration with photo-manipulation.
