Description
A few quick sketches during a quick break from other stuff.
I don't really create meaningful characters, I create characters with only one thing and one thing only for just a short skit and thats it. Sometimes I shoehorn them into other projects too XD
Part1:
Continuation to Part 1, more expressions.
Always looking for validation from the player yet when he smiles... He's kinda still a bit uncomfortable. Despite keeping to himself a lot, hes still very observant of other students.
Drawn in Manga Studio

mmmmaybe you should

Why.
I studied Games Design but i'm very much old school as it were, and I like to design things that have a purpose or quirk that makes them unique and fun but often this makes them very very specific to one situation only XD Everything is pretty much a one off.

because if it's something you don't usually do it's something worth exploring...plus it lets you take time to evolve and develop something over time
and it'd be a little hypocritical of you to wave off a suggestion from me, considering you give me lots teehee

I dont want to spend ages thinking up a backstory for something if it doesn't need it though. I look at so many old games that have so much exposition for no reason and also modern games that are only story and the gameplay is garbage. I dont want that. Definately not for the games I'm a part of is it even remotely important.
You specifically ask for it though XD and I'm not the one who needs a job in animation XD

well tbh i'm not 100% putting my eggs into the animation basket, i'm happy to settle for storyboarding or char design, even voice acting. I have an animation gig rn but working in a group has its frustrating aspects. i like doing stuff independently and i'm spending time working on game stuff too so tbh i could go in any direction. The industry is very choosey about job openings too, i probably wouldn't get an actual industry position for another 5 years

Good! No one should just put all their eggs in one basket, when you want a job you really do have to be jack of all trades and to be perfectly honest, 2D animation is pretty dead anyway. You have to be exceptional at it to even have the slightest chance... If a job ever comes up at all in the first place...
Go for everything and anything because its a foot in the door, tailor your CV and portfolio if you can, show them only whats relevant to them - Company's want you to be able to do what they want, they don't want an ideas man, they want a worker. Opportunities are there, but they seem to all be in big cities so broaden your search. Once you get the job, its still up to you whether you want to accept or not, its better if its you that has a lot of options to choose from.
If you wait 5 years, the first thing they'll wonder is why its taken 5 years (!!!!!) for you to get a job and their openings will be for internships and graduates or people with experience. Its hard. I know this. I went through all of this too, I made the same excuses are you did and when I finally started applying everywhere I could for the slightest things, I would lose jobs to younger more recent graduates because I hadn't the experience I should have had (3 months after graduating I was already under scruteny

>tfw all the openings ask for 5 years industry experience
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup. Dont think I haven't been through it all because I have. But Industry experience isn't exclusive to that particular position, experience in any position is all thats relevant. Even if you clean the toilets at company that makes crappy gambling apps just go for it! Its a foot in the door, its exerience in the industry.
