Karl Kopinski on Discipline, Sketching, and Making it as a Freelance Illustrator

This interview with illustrator Karl Kopinski covers his artistic journey, from early influences like fantasy novels and biology books to honing his skills at Games Workshop. Karl provides an inside look at freelancing for big brands like Magic: The Gathering and Netflix, building an accidental social media following thanks to his wife's encouragement, and the discipline needed to draw for 10+ hours daily. He also shares funny stories from conventions, his approach to developing original characters, and the obsessive research that goes into historical paintings.
