I'm still nowhere where I want to be but I havent been this motivated to do something in a while. Big thanks for Feng Zhu for being out there and the amazing work he does for whoever wants to improve whether it's for themselves as a hobby or getting their foot through the industry door.
I'm not in a position to give advices yet, but if I were to give one based on my own example, it would be to be patient. I think it's especially important in the era where everything is 'served' at your doorstep which is your PC in that case. On-line easy access tutorials, not strictly legal ebooks, free of charge video lessons and the likes makes one undervalue the actual skill, time and effort put into production of these.
I find myself wondering a lot whether it all makes sense, especially seeing the pros put together their complete pieces in less than an hour when I sometimes have to struggle to get the idea across in the first 30 minutes. It's really easy to give up.
But who would want to give up?
On top of enjoying doodling in Photoshop, I feel I sort of 'owe' it to drawing as this was the background that I came from and if it wasn't for the early doodles, redrawing Dragon Ball characters and sketching up the evil guys for my Fallout RPG, I would probably be holding a 3rd pass financial degree working away in Starbucks. But here I am.
So thanks to whatever and whoever helped and in short - well, watch this space as I will move forward.
Thought of the day - stay patient.
Geez I'm a terrible motivational speaker
