    Yeah, so my life is down in the shitter. Divorce, arson, backstabbing, you name it. Gotta put my masters degree on the backburner for a while, find a job and finish the rest of it as and when it can be done. Man I feel cheap and stupid for saying this:

    So right now I am gonna revamp my portfolio. Most of the stuff there is about 2 years old anyway. And then hit the global job market with full force in search of a gig as a texture artist or environment artist. So dear and resourceful Mapcorians, if you hear of positions opening at the junior levels, I would very much appreciate a heads-up.

    Ouch man. Sorry to hear about your troubles. Your work is great, though. Where about are you located, and are you willing to relocate if needed (across seas, if possible)? I'm not in the industry, but I know of a few development studios seeking people, but they aren't European based.

    Post your portfolio when you redesigned it so people from this forum who work for companies can see if they might be able to do something for you or not

    Id make your new portfolio a bit more too the point too, it has a milion buttons right now and Im kinda confused as what to look at

    Try the UK agencies; Aardvark Swift / Datascope / Creative Personel.

    All have been helpful in getting me work in the past.

    Sure thing Squirrel. I am game for anything. Have lived across a few different countries as it is. The search is more or less global.

    Best of luck in your search, I can't say that I know of any position here in France. If there's anything at all, would you be willing to relocate to the riviera?

    Would I? Of course. I would go to Shanghai or Australia if need be.

    Thanks again guys. Like I said, a new and improved portfolio is on its way as well. Not asking for jobs here, just a little headsup if you hear of an opening.

    You must be a retard if you aren't willing to do that.

    Well I'm there myself but you'll find lots of people that want to be in a quiet place in Surrey instead

    Come on the Riviera! You got Barcelona and Spain just ot the left of you, and Italy to the right. Sounds and looks like a super place!

    I was in the Nice and Cannes (or whatever) area a summer, it was great!

    I mean who doesn't like warm weather and girls with about no clothes at all?
