FAQ

What do you use to draw?

I use Photoshop CS5 mainly, but I sometimes use SAI for lineart since it's such a nice, smooth program. For animations, I use either Flash CS4 or Photoshop, and sometimes a mixture of both!

I use a Wacom Bamboo Pen, a tiny little thing.

Do you go to art school?

Yes! I've studied art properly for 3 years, but I've been drawing for as long as I can remember.

What do you hope to be one day?

A God.

Nah

I am striving to become an animator and get into Insomniac Games, something I've wanted to do since I was 11 years old.

Why do you do so much fanart?

Because I love it! I usually didn't get to do fanart whilst working on projects at Uni, so during the weekends and holidays and such I just can't help but draw them haha!

Requests? Commissions? Art trades?

Right now, I can't do any requests or art trades (unless I decide to approach someone else) since I am in dire need of saving up money for University. After that, I'll probably do more of them (during the Summer for example).

Can I use your work elsewhere?

Well, it depends where it is. If it's not for profit, then that's fine! Just link back to me somewhere. However, do not re-upload my work on deviantART, not unless you ask me first.

Inspirations

FEATURE BOX

Throughout my time trying to improve as an artist (and a person), I have encountered many people who have inspired me to keep going. Here, I will feature some of these people.

oOWhiplashOo
My first inspiration

She was perhaps my first big inspiration on Deviantart. My first arts were extremely influenced by her, and will always remain a root of my art now! She is now a good and trusted friend of mine and I can only hope we can someday meet!

Creaturebox
Concept Artist

For a long time, I have been inspired and influenced by the amazing CreatureBox without even knowing it. And then I stumbled across their deviantART page and instantly loved their work even more! These are the people who did the concept art for the Ratchet and Clank games. They will always have a special place in my inspiration box!

Tom Bancroft
The Disney artist

This guy is absolutely fantastic. Not only did he animate in the Lion King film and design Mushu the Dragon, he has also worked on a multitude of other things and he's always there to offer advice if you need it! He's a great guy with fantastic work!

Tatchit
Mistress of Detail

Since I found Tatchit's work over a year ago, I have always been enthralled by the sheer amount of detail in her works. From then on, her work has motivated me to try to be able to achieve that much level of detail in my own work, and her tutorials have also served to be extremely helpful! She has immense skill in digital as well as traditional. She is a great person indeed, and a laugh in Livestream!

Olympic Torch

Journal Entry: Sat May 19, 2012, 3:02 PM

The Olympic torch was being carried through both of my hometowns today and I missed it in BOTH of them lolol, even though I was in both cities today. I did however manage to snap a few photos of the Olympic vehicles that carried the torch and some other advertising vehicles that tagged along whilst I was coming back from viewing a house for next year at Uni

Oh yeah. Just look at that english weather. Top notch, I say.

Oh yeah, in case you're wondering why I'm standing in between a bunch of fields, I'm gonna be living on a farm next year haha! With =NorthernAnimator But I'll update more on that later on, this journal is boring enough

Enjoy!

I am a 20 year old digital artist and animation enthusiast, and I hope to one day become good enough for Insomniac Games. I am currently studying first year Digital Animation at Falmouth University.

You'll find me around here drawing whatever the heck takes my fancy. Generally fanart stuff, although I sometimes venture out from under that rock and explore different areas.

I am terrible with colour theory, so if you watch me you will sometime see random colour experiments and speedpaints pop up in your inbox. I'm desperate to get better with colour, nothing makes a pic pop like awesome colour application (and anatomy, but yeah).

I use Photoshop CS5 to draw and a Wacom Bamboo.

I love to meet new people and chat, so feel free to leave a comment!

If you see something I need to improve, don't hesitate to give me advice! Just make sure it's not on my older stuff unless you see me making the same errors now as I did then, because I generally try to tackle errors in old works and improve within a month of drawing them (I try to be hard on myself

)

Friends

These are the people that make life on dA a million times better! Sorry if I miss anyone by the way, I'm still adding to this list!
