I don't know who you are, Anonymous Deviant, but thank you for the Premium Membership. It is random acts of kindness like that which remind me of how amazing the DA community can often be. <3

In that same vein, I'm currently off at Illuxcon! I will write up a more thorough review after it is over on Sunday. But so far, though it's only day two, it has been a life changing experience. I feel like my work can hit a whole new level once I can get home and apply some of the incredible advice I've been getting here. I know of no other convention where you can just walk up to Dan Dos Santos in the middle of the day and he will sit down and give you half an hour of his time to share. Or Jesper Esjing, Donato Giancola, or any of the other dozens upon dozens of absolutely incredible people here.

If you really want to get into Sci-fi/Fantasy illustration, I highly recommend it for next year: [link]
