Spent late nights uploading your carefully created characters to Art Station. Worried that someone will tear them apart. But also hopeful that someone will actually tell you they’re good.

Are you still waiting to become “good enough” before you launch your character art career?

You’ve put in the hours.

You’ve paid your dues.

You’ve put down hard-earned money for access to tutorials and courses that you hoped would get you closer to “being ready”. More money than you’d like to admit. And probably more than your partner would’ve liked.

But you still aren’t ready to quit your day job. You’ve told yourself that you only have one shot at this. That you can only afford one shot at becoming a character artist before you lay that pipe dream to rest.

And you’re willing to dive into a career that you actually love

Because you see the way zombie 9-5 workers grind for the weekend. Only to stress the weekend away because Monday is just around the corner.

You aren’t willing to settle. Not for that life. Not when you’re so close to getting the career you were born to do.

You’re ready to do something you’re interested in. Instead of something you hate.

You’ve been dreaming about it for a while:

You wake up, fire up your computer, and get to work on your absolute dream career: Designing exciting new characters for high-paying clients.

Your office has varied over the years—from working in-house with world-class studios, to creating from the comfort of your own home. Perhaps you’ve even had the opportunity to work remotely as a digital nomad.

But one thing has remained constant: you LOVE what you do.
You get to spend your days designing thrilling characters…
…See them come to life in blockbuster games and movies…
…And get paid good money to do so.

You’re so close that you can taste it. But you know you still have a bit to learn about character design before you’re ready to land a lucrative job.

You know what your ideal career looks like. It’s getting there that’s the problem.

You’ve probably already dabbled into this one. Surfed YouTube over and over again for tutorials and followed along step-by-step.

But you really don’t know what areas to focus on. There’s really no one out there you can trust to give you feedback. No one to walk you through your weak points and help turn them into strengths.

So, you just keep going in circles on YouTube. Picking up bad habits that - at best - take years to unlearn. Watching speed-stylings from artists living your dream, and hoping that one day their talent somehow rubs off on you.

Ah, good ol’ art school. The place you go to pay a lot of money for out-dated advice and a fancy diploma.

If you’re lucky enough to have the funds to go to art school, congrats! Now you’ve just got to try and juggle that with your day job.

Or quit your day job entirely in hopes that you’ll get a better one when you graduate.

Additionally…
New course material has to go through an eternally long process before it's added to the curriculum.

So, you're getting outdated information from the moment it hits your desk.

Especially in an industry that’s as fast-paced and constantly evolving as 3D Character Art.

But your diploma will add a touch of credibility to your resume. So at least there’s that, right?

So, you’ve got two options:

Free But Takes YEARS & Most People End Up Quitting

DIY (ie. YouTube)

Art School

Expensive, Inflexible, And Often Outdated In This Lightning-Fast Industry

#1

#2

This can be a better route, but it’s expensive and means having to put your life on hold for years without guarantee of success.

Very few current professionals went the entirely self-taught route. The vast majority run out of steam and end up quitting before they can get good.

How confident are you that you could land a job as a character artist after putting in all that time and money?

You and I both know you deserve more than that.

Or at least be good enough to find work that pays you more than just “exposure”?

You deserve to wake up excited to go to work each morning. You deserve to see your name in the end credits of the movies everyone’s talking about. You deserve to get paid good money and feel creatively fulfilled in your life.

You shouldn’t have to choose.

Which is why I’m here to tell you about a third option.

But you don’t have years to try the DIY route. You also very likely don’t have the funds to quit your day job and go to art school.

This is about more than just proving to your parents that this was more than just a hobby. And it’s about more than just you’re “tired” of your current job.

It’s about you being so worn out in your current career that you are pretty sure you’ll quit anyway in the next 3-5 years. And then what? You’ll go to another job you can barely tolerate? And dream about a life where you actually get paid to do the thing you do every day in your spare time?
