Description

This was supposed to be much longer, much more detailed, and full of pictures. But I ran out of room. I almost didn't fit my name on the bottom. It's a DA Survival Guide for Amateur Artists - just covering a few "If you want to improve...." points, social interactions, commissions, style.. etc. It was done off the top of my head XD meant for the newest DA beginners that have no idea where to start.

Thanks for the advices as I'm new to almost everything about art ( digital stuffs, anatomies, sketching, shadings) all kinds of stuff!!! And your post gave me a goal for my own and reveal some truths that I wouldn't be able to discover myself. It would be life changing for me if I would ever be a good artist~~ thx
