The other half of the Starving Artist experience: Homeless Artist
Things have... not gone well, long story short. So I figure I'll ask around here for those of you who have maybe dealt with this before or might have some suggestions, or leads, or anything.

When did you start applying for game industry jobs?
Just curious how you learned the skills and then gauged when your work was good enough to start putting a resume out there. I know a lot of artist tend to be perfectionist, and then on top of that art can be a pretty subjective thing. So what's a good rule of thumb for knowing when to start putting yourself out there?

A good place to start?
So...bear with me, I tend to get a little unfocused as my brain tends to wander and rant so...I hope I make this as clear as I can. I've been aspiring to squeeze into video games and/or comics since I was a teenager. I was always sort of proud of my ability to come up with concepts and stories at the snap of a finger and,… -
