Robert - Art School Journey

robosketch 2021-05-13 21:08:28 UTC #1

Hello!

I'm Robert, 27, currently based in Illinois, USA. I recently got interested in becoming a character concept artist. I've always loved reading manga and watching anime and I'm especially obsessed with the manga spreads between chapters.

After going to college for industrial design and working as a UI/UX designer I realized it wasn't for me and what I really wanted to do was make illustrations. The last few months I've been figuring out how to jump career paths to concept artist because I'd really like to draw all day if possible

PS - If anyone else is interested in character concept art let's be friends and support each other on our journey!

Hey @robo0214 your drawings are really interesting. I especially like the perspective on the first 2 pieces. I'm interested in character concept but I'm working on improving overall. Be sure to check out the discord as well.
