Keep the scope of your #gameart portfolio pieces smaller and focus on quality and execution. Great example of this in Forest Biome by Sherif Dawoud www.artstation.com/artwork/qJ2Y9P

I understand wanting to copy fan art 1:1. It's fine for an exercise. Even better than copying something 1:1 would be to create something new that fits alongside the orginal art. This gives you an ability to showcase your voice as an artist, while also showing an ability to match the #gameart style.

Weechi and a whole lot of awesome Trading Post tomorrow!

Intelligence isn’t a substitute for knowledge. Being smart doesn’t mean you’ve taken the time to be informed. Knowledge isn’t a substitute for wisdom. Being informed doesn’t mean you’ve developed good judgment. Good judgment requires the humility to know what you don’t know.
