Hello Steemers!
As some of you know I am an artist for games and film and more!
For the last 5 years i have been working as a freelance concept artist & illustrator.
In these 5 years I have worked for a bunch of projects ranging from miniatures for tabletop rpgs, to the book for these games.. Video games on PC, Xbox, PS4/3, mobiles, card games.. even on a ride for one the leading themeparks here in Europe.
Which is super cool! .. Though one of the problems you always run into is called 'NDA'.. Non disclosure agreement.
In other words it means; 'Hey.. That work you did for us.. Really cool!.. You can't show it to anyone! okay thanks bye!'
It is something that seems to be happening more and more..
But a portfolio is from vital importance as a freelancer. If I have nothing to show for.. How will anyone find me or know how good/bad I am.. and I'm asking the dayrate i'm asking!
One of the few options you are left with is try to make personal work.. Stuff that isn't owned by anyone!
That you can always put in your portfolio! Of course you have to find the time and motivation to make any.. I for example are most of the time working for about 8 hours a day on 'work' 'work'.. After that I find it quite hard to find some energy to make some stuff for myself!.
Anyway.. I'd like to share with you a big part of my portfolio because I'm curious to what you guys think.
And to perhaps for aspiring artists to see what I have that gets me jobs/work/commissions/licensing deals etc.
My portfolio: (some of these images have already been posted on steemit!)
There is usually quite a few more.. But These are most of the times the images I like to show the most..
Though I realize this might be a bit too much! :D
Anyway I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Thank you so much for your time!
Cheers
Rogier

Your color palet is astonishing. I especially love that fiora-paint demonist and the 2nd painting as they show the personality of the character more deeply compared to the others. Also taht hunter in the snow. I love stories haha. That's why the 1st one and the night elve I find them less interesting (technically I can't say anything I love it) but in terms of storytelling they are a bit under the others I think (for the 1st warrior I think it is because of the background).
But anyway, just rambling a bit haha I'm still faaaaaaaar from that level x) Cheers man !

So cool man really love this style. You must dedicate a lot of time to your art and it really shows. Bummer about the NDIA's but you can see the skill and dedication you have just in a few images. Keep crushing it!

It's impressive, with a wide variety of images. You have man, woman, backgrounds, legendary creatures, space ships,... I would like to have such a varied portofio.. But as you say, it needs time and motivation after working all day... Not always easy! Congratulations ! :-)

Amazing art, and quite well composed! Out of curiousity, how much would it cost to commission a piece from you?

Thank you so much :) Well it depends completely on what you want. Characters and portraits can be as 'cheap' as 150/250 to full blown out illustrations with multiple characters etc that could run up to 1500 :D
I do take crypto's as payment nowdays so that helps for some people i think :D
I have also sold a print the otherday for a bit of litecoin.. 21st century! ur amazing :P
