My entry for the Calgary expo 2019 (which I SHOULD be exhibiting at) art book! The prompt was 'fantastic realms'.

@avfarrar I don't think it's a silly question I guess it all depends on whether Marvel is interested only in the book, or if they take a closer look at what Will's selling at conventions and whether they'll care or not. It's gonna be interesting to see what happens!

@Pamela-Fraley I don't think you're going too simple. I think 'too simple' is a pretty tough line to cross

My fav's are the first and second option, I think, though they're all good. I can see the finished cover being done in some kind of awesome sumi ink style. Something nice and 'rough'.

@LauraA Thanks! Yeah, that was a particularly good episode of the podcast for me, too. I have the same analysis paralysis problem, too. I think it's just one of those things

@AnnaDaviscourt There's always next time, I suppose

@davidhohn Oh Cool! If I see you there I'll be sure to say hi

I just signed up for the western washington scbwi may conference! Finally something within driving distance

Is anyone else here planning on attending? It'd be neat if there were some familiar(ish) people showing up too!

@Sas @RJWoodworth Thanks!

@SketchyArtish yay! Grilling!

1.) I have a set amount of time (2 hours) in the morning that I use for practice linework, a random character (or colour/texture study, I kinda waffle between the two) and work on a comic page. So I DO have a time limit, but it's kind of a loose limit, if you get what I mean?

2.)The prompts are from a random genny. Art prompts. I don't they update their site much anymore, though, which is too bad All kinda of neat prompts though for characters, monsters, environments, etc.

Glad I could help Targeted art practice is HARD. Another neat place to get character concepts it the character drawing subreddit. Lots of neat dnd characters n stuff.

@Heather-Bouteneff Welcome to the forums Art's always there when we come back 'round to it.

It seems that when one of the SVS crew interviews an agent or artist and asks 'how did you get your start?' the answer is often 'my friend is an agent/my old coworker was head of acquisitions at/I knew a guy' so don't feel embarrassed about using your connections! Talk to that new in-law At the very least he'll probably be happy to point you in a direction to run in.
