Hey,

Thought Id share some of my art with you guys. Im trying to get into the video game business but man its hard especially when I have no finished games to show. I originally have classical illustration background. I also have made a portfolio but at the moment I don't have a lot game related work to put in there.

I also participated in Ludumdare this year, you can check the video of the game here.

So do you guys have any tips on portfolio wise on how to get small gigs?

Just catalog all your work and keep it some place. After that... make posts in the forums that allow you to advertise polycount, here, and a few other places and just try to find people through that.
