Just like to give yall some background info

I'm 25, born on Devil's Night (oct 30), a scorpio

I have been drawing since i was 5 years old so i have 20 years of experience with drawing. I have expanded out to painting with water colors for about 1 1/2 years. Its not much different from drawing and i kind of "cheat" using water color pencils. Highly recommended, they are fun and do add a neat texture to your art.

I started out doing characters. I have always enjoyed chars. When i was about 5 or 6 i would doodle megaman bosses in markers for my grandma. As i got older naturally i was attracted to anime and found it to be an inspiring source until i reached 17, when i decided it was overdone and started to dislike the style. I wanted to do something different, so i started to develop my own style.

The Interpretive Psychedelics is a new style. It is all improvised. I will sit down for a session that can last as long as 6 hours. I have recently started to moderate my drug use but when i started out there was hardly a moment when i werked on this style without being stoned or drunk. Cannabis has been a great inspiration as well as Psilocybin.

I have always wanted to be as original as possible. It seems hard in a world where everything has already been done. After starting to develop my own style i had a great interest in experimenting with antrho-morphs. I feel my anthro-morphs are on par with Capcom's Breath of Fire chars.

RPG's (Role Playing Game) has had the biggest influence on my character creation. Through playing Final Fantasy (Tactics is by far the best),
Dungeons & Dragons Breath of Fire Seiken Densetsu (Secret of Mana) and countless other indepedant RPGs like ODIN SPHERE still to this day provide inspiration for my characters to develop new traits and perhaps even modify their appearances and personalities.

I have over 30 original characters divided into 2 worlds.
The first is Children of Eden. This is a fantasy world based on a Goddess who created a planet much like the Earth. Eden has 4 moons each of which producee their own unique race of dragon and are sent to Eden through ritual one time per century.

The 2nd world is a co-creation with a writer buddy of mine. We would work together in a local restaurant and come up with character ideas and stories. This world is called Blooming Paradise. It is set in modern times in Bloomington a suburb outside of Chicago, IL. It is a 1930's style police story pulp fiction about 2 bounty hunters, The Regulata a cybernetic polar bear and Stir-Fry a rabid canine diety. Together they are attempting to bring down the dominant mob in chicago lead by Squirrel Face.

I have 2 different styles of chars. Originals and Inspirations, or Basis. Basis chars are literally based on people i know. My friend whom i have known for a long time and have made a positive difference in my life. I will analyze their traits and narrow them down into categories. Appearance, Personality, Interests and Behavior. I will take the traits and combine them into something i can visually represent. These are some of my best chars.

Its a bit to read, there's nothing forcing you to read it. This is for people who are interested.

Wanna give a shout out to Moose of Mayhem. Keep drawing lil punk.
Shout outs to LittleBlueShoe, Chitabanana and anyone who has bothered to add anything of mine to their favorites or left a positive comment.

Peace and wellness to all. There's loads more art to come in the near future.

I am mostly a character designer. over 25 of em all original art. I do not draw other people's ideas but i will do a parody every now and then. My imagination is over-active.
