Go to the Mountain, friend.
If you are looking for an accessible, fun to listen to pcast about the trials, tribulations, and techniques of the lonely Fantasy/SciFi Artist, then you need strain your ears no longer. These guys are it. I have found their topics to be useful for anyone interested in making a life in pursuance of the arts, be it illustration or otherwise. It helps that they are also funny as hell! To be expected from anyone trying to make a living in what can be a deeply frustrating occupation. The only other option is to weep salty tears into yer stuffed hentai pillow... Great stuff, gives em a listen!

This type of broadcast discussion has been a long time coming. I am learning a lot. The third episode opened my eyes to mistakes made and then ingeniusly reassured me by pointing out that I am not the first to make these mistakes. I believe these guys will be helpful to not only the seasoned professional but also the "Wanna be" like myself. Keep it coming, Don Higgins Londonderry, NH
