Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
We've all sacrificed a lot of things. It didn't occur to me til last week that Christmas was coming up until I walked into a Starbucks and saw the decorations. Halloween slipped by and I hardly noticed since I was in a crunch mode at the time and if I didn't have a roommate who was paying more attention I would have missed… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
Wow, I didn't expect this thread to take off as much as I had planned. It's good to hear other peoples stories and what they given up to persue game art, and it makes me feel terrible for not coping with my long term partner breaking up with me, when others have familes to worry about or have lost a lot more then I have.… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
I get that you all like your jobs, but really? This 'Work-First > Girlfriend later stuff' seems pretty crazy to me. Either you guys haven't met 'the one' yet, or this industry really aint for me. I've been with my girl for 5 years, I'm 25, so not that old... I'm not exagerating when I say if Blizzard rang me up tomorrow… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
This thread reminds me so much of everything I had sacrificed in the past, and how I've grown enough to not let work by the dominant purpose in my life. Anyways, long story short: Happiness comes from a balance of Health, Wealth, and Love. They're symbiotic pillars in everyone's life that require balance. Sacrificing one,… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
Health (though improving) and my last relationship, though the latter is debatable, heh. I always have been and always will be, married to my work. I told her that going in. Some might say that's sad, but it's just a matter of perspective. Either way, after 7yrs, I think the truth finally sunk in and she left me back in… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
...mmm I gave up (even though I tried keep doing them...)...travelling, surf, rock climb...snowboard... for almost 2 years, but nothing (good that lasts..) comes without sacrifice in my experience, I ve been doing 3D for almost 2 years now ...before that I was only drawing graffiti here and there... things are going… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
I jumped into this thread thinking it would be weird to me, and i agree with kwakkie a lot. I haven't sacrificed much of anything. I muddled up a couple of friendships and a relationship when i was in my teenage years and most obsessively going torward some fantasy of game art employment, but overall i havent really given… -
What have you sacrificed for game art?
Hey all, I've gone out with a very sweet loving girl for 3 years. She recently broke up with me (4 days ago) as she can't cope with the idea of me applying and possibly moving to work interstate - which is my dream. This has almost killed me but I was supportive of her decision. Given that I have not been employed yet, I… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
Im with you on that. Me and my lady had our time apart when she went to University and I drove 4 hours every weekend to see her. Then I got a job 2 hours away and she eventually moved in with me. When she had to move home to help her folks out of bankrupcy, I didnt last long and left Climax studios as I hated being away… -
Re: What have you sacrificed for game art?
As always Vig is right on the money IMO. If you dont find a person who is supportive of your life you dream to live then there really not the right person for you. Even if you think they are "the one". The thing is there are plently of people who could be "the one" who would support your dream, you just havent met them…
