Re: Advice on Becoming an Architectural Illustrator
Hi Chip,
All of the advice since your question has been no doubt great. One aspect that hasn't been mentioned is that of hands on experience in the field actually working on a building. Seeing the labor that goes into building gives yet another perpective that a classroom just can't give you. Working through the myriad of details that the successful delivery of a completed building entails allows one to adjust their mindset to what actually works. Seeing a building's "bones" how the electricty, HVAC, plumbing, etc is routed will expand your perpective. Not that you need to spend a lifetime doing construction. I don't know your age, but perhaps a summer wearing a hard hat could be a good thing....
