Hello all.

I finished high school at 18 like everyone else with above average marks. I wanted to go to art school and become an animator. However life did not turn out the way I wanted. Due to various personal reasons which I don't want to disclose here, I was not able to go to art school and later ended up as a hikikomori (recluse).

However I did not want to remain living in the dark and watch everyone else succeed. Hence when things sorta improved in my life I tried to give another attempt to follow my artistic passion. At 25 I started drawing once again. It almost felt like learning from scratch as I had never drawn since I was 18. However as I started to draw once again a wave of nostalgia hit me. It felt as if the carefree high school kid in me was alive once again. I felt a type of happiness I had never felt in years. I knew I was on the right track!

I kept improving my art and after few months joined a 2 years diploma course in animation. It felt too late to go for a 4 years course in an art school even though they teach more in depth over there. I graduate in another year as I am already half way in. If things does go as planned and I do get a foot in the door in let's say an animation studio, I will be 28 then. Does it feel too old? Anyone else here who started their career at a later stage?
