ANOTHER NEWBIE
polycounter lvl 11
Hay guys and girls.
My name is Duncan (creative user name eh?) and I am a new member.
I guess I should start with a little bit about myself. I am 27 years old and until about 4 years ago I am ashamed to say I barely knew how to switch on a computer let alone know anything about some of the stuff you guys do on a daily basis. But now I am glad to say I am in my first job in the games industry working for Big Ant studios in Melbourne, Australia. As far as I am concerned I am a complete noob to this world(well maybe not a complete noob but very noobish) . I never really played computer games and I guess I still dont but I love the art and the all the work that goes into making them, and just like you all I am looking for ways of improving my abilities as an artist. I have been a fairly frequent face over at GameArtisans having fun and getting involved in competitions and generally spreading the love. I hope to be able to do the same thing here with you guys.
Well that is enough of that, here is a little art DUMP? of some of the things I have been up to recently dating from oldest to most recent.
Please, If you have ANY comments or crits feel free to shout them out. I am a huge fan of honesty so feel free to be as brutal as you want, It all helps.
See you all soon.

It's rad to see you posting here (finally!). Just keep pimping and you can only get better from here on in.
Thumbs up!
Thanks for the big up guys. I can't wait to get to work on something with the POLYCOUNT logo. I love that little guy.
In 4 years you have come a long way! I know some kids that have been in school for years and still don't know crap..haha
Welcome!
oh and CASEYJONES, I am keeping an eye on you mr, hahaha I had a look around the house last night and can't find any decent 2D to post. I think the dog ate them. I will try harder over the weekend.
Thanks again guys.

We'll have to get sketch group going again so it'll give you a reason to get some of your cool little dudes down on paper.
Yeah man I am keen to get back into a bit of 2D. Sketch group for the win!
