Excuse me, but do you take requests or point commissions?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Unfortunately no, since my university studies are approaching. Also because I'm not very familiar with how DA points system work. But if I do, I will update on my DA journal. So sorry! D:
Thanks for the add! >v<

Thanks for the watch! Saw that you're from Singapore too - from a poly too, judging by the journal? Hope you're doing well in your art course and more confident by now!

Yup I'm from Poly too! (and Singaporean to boot! Haha.) Yeah, improving myself so far in digital painting and practicing as usual. Confidence slowly growing, I guess? XD
How are you?

Haha fellow Singaporeans; hi-five then XD I'm a sophomore now, studying at Digipen (Singapore). Nice to meet ya!

Wow awesome, nice to meet you as well! Hi-five to you too! I'm aiming to go to Digipen if possible! What's it like studying there?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahaha it's tough, in all honesty, you have to be prepared if you wanna come here! Gotta put aside the anime/manga style and all, if possible. Work's really regular and keeps coming in so yeah you gotta pace it right.
You might wanna reconsider if you know yourself not to be up to the task though...;w; it's really soul draining hahaha.

hey i got a question
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm it depends on which country/state you want to study in. Are you aiming for a university or an arts school? Probably any fine arts, digital art or design courses, but I recommend those that teach illustration or have specialization in Illustration (and if you are lucky, Graphic Novels). Check around your local area first, then expand to overseas schools if you are interested to study aboard.
Main difference between Graphic Design and Illustration is that Graphic Design explores the more corporate side of the design industry (e.g. Advertising, packaging, Web Icons, multimedia, Corporate Identity, etc.), whereas in Illustration, you get to learn essentials in drawing such as observation/life drawing, digital art, book illustration, 2D & 3D Art, plus perspective drawing. But it depends in the school curriculum too. So research before you sign up.
Good luck!
