@Valerie-Light no kidding a little brutal lol
-
@Asyas_illos did any of you sign up for peer reviews or pitches as well? I did not, but i'm very curious what those sessions look like.
-
@Valerie-Light no I didnāt either, I was really hoping youād be able to kind of āsit inā to see how it goes? But I didnāt get a link to todays, so Iām guessing no. Maybe thereās somebody else who registered and can shed some light on it for usā¦
-
@Asyas_illos Thank u! I agree, our fellow rabbits definitely have great portfolios. Great job everyone!
-
@Valerie-Light did you catch the part when one of the ads said she had a dog file? Iām mean I honestly didnāt know they worked liked that. They find things that you do well and set it aside waiting for the perfect project? Or maybe thatās just her? I donāt know that was crazy to me! But, I think thatās the most important thing I took away yesterday, is draw the things you like to draw and what youāre good at and put those in your your portfolio. If you donāt like drawing cars donāt put them in cuz if theyāre good youāll get asked to do them again and again. And be drawing them for six months to a year.

Thanks for sharing @Asyas_illos, and good luck to the Rabbits! I look forward to entering the next one

@Asyas_illos I did see that, and I love it! I loved hearing from the panelists saying they welcomed art submissions from unagented, unpublished illustrators. That makes me feel way less pressure about sending a 'perfect' submission in.

@Jeremy-Ross thank you and Iāll definitely be attending again!
