# About me

I love traditional art. I'm always *cough* trying to improve my skill level so any tips regarding traditional pen and pencil are welcome and greatly appreciated. At this time I won't burden dA with my own work. I'm not that bad it's just...well, I don't wanna contribute to the sea of waste I already have to sail through to find all you real artists. I usually don't spend more then five minutes drawing something so, as you can imagine, it's mostly simple character designs and nonsense for my own entertainment. Not to mention a hell of a lot of Ritos; custom Guess Who? cards.

Runover from old ID setup:

Favourite genre of music: instrumental fusion, classical, basically any genre instrumental as long as it's good

Favourite photographer: Roy Beckham?

Favourite style of art: hand-drawn

MP3 player of choice: MP4 player of choice: DSi

Favourite cartoon character: The Mayor (The Nightmare Before Christmas), Chirp (Peep and the Big Wide World), Jack Frost (Frosty's Winter Wonderland), Luffy/Usopp/Zolo (One Piece), Allen Walker (D.Gray-Man), Smithy (Jane and the Dragon), Ludwig von Drake (An Adventure in Color), Tony Stark (ONLY FROM Iron Man: Armored Adventures), Adult Lambo/Dino/Vongola Primo Giotto (Katekyo Hitman Reborn! NOT A WORTHY SERIES - JUST A HANDFUL OF GREAT SIDE CHARACTERS), Tsukasa (.hack//sign) and Haseo (.hack//roots WITH THESE TWO CAN I SAY IT'S NOT SO MUCH PERSONALLY AS IT IS WHAT THEY REPRESENT?), Tobias (.hack//Quantum)

I think they're for status. You know how some people really go in for that, especially if they don't have any in the real world.

You see that Llama at the top right of my page? Click on it to view or give badges. I’m sure somewhere you could find out more about badges. Why Llamas? I think it's just to be silly. [or rather, deviant]

My favorite mammal is the Kangaroo (and Macropods in general). I don’t have a particular favorite out of all animals. Owls are probably my fave bird and I do so love dinosaurs. Favorite pet would have to be aquarium fish/inverts.

It was just too strange a combination to ignore. It's like something you would think of and then ask, "What do you bet someone has thought of the same thing?" and you'd get the reply, "Probably not."
