Re: Career as a Character Artist
if your just starting out, I would do digital tutors, that's how I started out learning game art for characters by myself.

Re: Sprite Editors and 2d Engines
wow, thanks for all the info guys. I'd love do use something like the Torque2d engine but I'm just a poor student, and I cant really justify spending a couple hundred bucks for a little side project to have fun with.

Blond needs critique on his folio
Welps..finally guys. Took the time to assemble some of the work I've made at school and compile them into my page. Honestly, I don't feel too happy about the whole thing.

Non-Art careers you had
Hello lovely people of Polycount!
