Hi Sir dipoay, I got motivated to begin image cartooning after viewing your works. This is my first attempt . please can you provide me advice and useful links so that I can be a pro like you ? Thanks

bammo:
Hey bro, I really admire your work, it's inspiring.. I just got a personal laptop and I'm looking to learn graphics online just like you did, can you pls suggest some helpful materials and where I can get them, I'll be really grateful if you can help. Thanks

DipoAy:


YouTube is one very good learning place. Look up videos for the software you want to use. The first thing is understanding how software work and understanding the interface. When you know this basics, you’d be able to see other artists finished jobs and try imagine how they were done. Even in this present age, some people don’t know there’s something known as photo manipulation. So learn the basics. Also there is Udemy,cousera and other paid learning sites you can get tutorial videos from. You can also get videos free from there sometimes if you’re lucky. In learning design, I’d advice you stick to videos and don’t do much books. Don’t get me wrong, I’m learning principles and methods and the likes, books are good. (E.g branding,) but in just understanding the interface, try use videos. I hope I’ve been able to help

Thanks a lot man.. this is quite enlightening & I'll definitely try these out. I'm currently learning corel draw. If it's not too much to ask, I'd like you to suggest other softwares that can be helpful too. Thanks

Adobe photoshop
Adobe illustrator.
In the world today, there are arguments that photoshop is better than Corel and it’s more productive. Now, I’m not saying Corel isn’t good because I’ve seen works done on Corel that amazed me but it would be good to learn photoshop too. If you can try learn both and also it depends on the niche of graphics design you wish to venture into. Put in your time and the Internet is ready to help you

theGigolo:
Post this stuff on Twitter bro, this is cool for UI/UX designs

DipoAy:


Bro, it’s been a long time coming on this my thread. You’ve always supported mostly by giving your opinion and advices. Even after being inconsistent, you’re still here. Thank you very much theGigolo. This is an appreciation post just for you. Thanks.


I don’t have a large following on Twitter and I haven’t really posted anything on there but I think I’d consider it now. It wouldn’t kill to post it there. Thanks

DipoAy:
So, I do illustrations like this. Mobile and web illustrations I think. I need a job

theGigolo:


You don't need a large following, you just need people who need you and trust me they will see you.

If you want after you post your work I can retweet and get you the few recognition I can muster.

Start selling online. The market is huge..

Look into creating and selling icons, digital illustrations.
You’re doing well bro...

DipoAy:


Thanks for your input sir. Really grateful.

I’m on fiverr but I just recently started that and I think you know how almost impossible it is for a newbie on most freelance sites. There’s always someone else that can do the job. So that’s why my freelance journey is crippled.

fighal:
I’m not talking about freelancing bro.. I’m talking about selling your creations in a marketplace or creating your own digital store and sell from there
