Hey , thanks for checking out my stuff. Yea, I think she was called Eileen the Crow. But yea, Bloodborne had a huge impact on me that year. I am compiling all these sketches and more into a book and will be kickstarting it.
But to answer your question, I got into the industry through colleagues and a network of friends from school. I can't give art school much credit for how much you spend, but it is good for networking. I probably also had a stroke of luck because I didn't have much experience at the time.
Are you in a school right now?
