Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRfoFGGyRvU What I always think about when I feel like there is no way I can make it. I play that video pretty regularly (once a month or so) in the background and just listen to it. Someone who is going to make it in this industry and really just kill it, needs to feel that way. Its cut… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
You can definitely succeed. You just need to be willing to put the time in. If you think you dont have the time, you`re wrong. What worked for me was taking online classes. Plenty of sites offer online classes taught by industry professionals. You`ll get your weekly assignment, live reviews and lectures. You`ll learn a… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
Wow it is awesome that you could handle 6 hours after your daily job. I wake up veery early and get back home by 8. So I guess I could stretch to 3 hours and a bit. But you were already freelancing at the time right? I have the feeling that having to break that first barrier, taking those first steps to actually have some… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
i made it while working full time and going to school full time while i was married and raising kids. i also gave up sleeping for a long time...so that's a thing. If you enjoy making art you should make it every chance you get. If you would rather have a portfolio than a social life you'll surely make it into the industry… -
Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
Hi. This question keeps coming and going every time I stop and think about my future. I deeply want to work in the industry, I always loved art and games. However, I took way too long to figure out this is what I wanted to do, and now I have to work and do my best with my 2 hours available each day. But really, when I read… -

I'll go all fortune cookie on you and hope it helps.

Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
Life's too short to stress about these kinds of things. Can't get your dream job? That's fine, get another job and work on your portfolio in your spare time until you've gotten good enough. You don't need to make art this painful thing you HAVE to do EVERY NIGHT for 6 hours. I think quitting your job to just study is… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
I was one of those kids who had the fortune of graduating and chilling at home for a year and a half. It was brutal. Not that I'd take any of it back because it let me get a job in the end and now I'm freelancing fairly well thus far. Derek's schedule looks very brutal to me but if you don't have a social life or don't… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
You get out what you put in. I started teaching myself back in 1998, when I was working as a glass cutter. I worked 12hr days, after which I'd come home and spend 3-4hrs doing artwork, reading art books and conversing with other artists. I'd make weapon models for CounterStrike, learning how to rig, animate and compile… -
Re: Can someone working full time, 9 hours a day, really make it?
Like my last post I'll keep it short and sweet (would like to give a more detailed reply but there are a lot of these types of threads.) Post your work so people can see what level you're at in the Pimping and Previews section, follow people's crits and improve as much as you can, if you're serious about this then drop…
