Been looking at a lot of Cucumis' art recently, and wow, she's pretty impressive with posing and expressions. It's not the style I usually like, though I can't deny that she is very talented.

Many artists, no matter how talented, lack the confidence in their art. Why? Because we are our worst critic mostly.

I'm working in a video game/3D movie school and I can ASSURE you that we accept people with less talent than you in drawing. Most of them are of your caliber while we do have the few "OMG! DID YOU SEE WHAT THIS ONE CAN DO??!!?"

Do they all find jobs? Honestly, it depends on how well they progress in classes, if their 3D projects are amazing, creative and original. And it also depends on how well they are selling themselves.

We have incredible artists that didn't find a job because they didn't think what they were doing was good/interesting and during interviews, they sabotaged themselves.

If you are aiming for concept artist, I won't lie: there's a lot of competition out there. But I'm confident in your skills. :) I'm sure you will find a good job once your studies are done. It's usually take a year after you graduate so don't give up too fast if you don't find something right away. :)
