Introduce Yourself Here!

Hi there, let me give you a brief bio, since i am now admin. [just because i participate in jackassery in TFS, where im a mod, and on the mains doesnt mean i will do the same here, so fear not] Main account name:Capiton Render GT[xbox]:Capit0n Render, [PSU]DeadOn Name: James C. O'Brien Schooling in art: SCAD grad in animation 2/3d, and conceptual 3d modelling Age:33yrs I started young, as an outlet for my boredom while travelling with family. I found an outlet in art, and continued on and off throughout my life. I taught myself 2/3 point perspective at 9. When in HS i found a teacher that recognized my ability, and took AP art classes throughout my HS years. I attended a CC for art classes, and when time came to choose, it was either a Math/physics path{MIT scholarship) or art courses. I chose art, not so much because it was the career i wanted, but because i had such a passion for it. In comes SCAD, i have classical training in all disciplines, with focus on human anatomy, acting and animation techniques, i studied under a a teacher who was a tweener for tex avery and chuck jones. Upon graduating, and looking at some of the requirements to get into my field, i took a job doing engineering work for a more stable money inflow. Since then my art participation has been fluctuating. My current focus is to get back into painting, and perhaps a little 2d animation. My current focus in styles will be pop surrealism, polka trash, tattoo styles, and of course a little animation. My family has a history of artists, painters, musicians, diamond cutters, and jewelry makers, so i feel almost the need to get back to my roots. If you want any advice on techniques, or constructive criticism, i will be more than glad to assist. As far as moderating the group, ill assist in any way i can, provide tutorials for techniques, which i have a plethora from an old art group i ran, and will be discouraging elitism, which can be a nuisance within the art community. Otherwise, I will shortly pull my HS and college portfolios, digitize the bastards, and show some of my work, its been a long time coming, and hopefully, if this is a good community in the long run, will help me find new motivations to pursue my craft.

My name is Roland, and I work on the Mars rover. I've been inspired by Bungie from way back with Marathon, and now I want to use what I know about planetary geology to build stories about the worlds in Destiny.

My name is Najah and this is my first full English post

My name is Carlo, 64 is my age. Been doing fine art, theater and lighting design and art exhibitions well, for ever. Hope to share some work with a great art community. Fan art is a little out of my comfort zone but fun.

I work in pen and pencil when I draw. Above is one of my nicer looking works. That's what I can draw when I'm not tired. When I am, weird stuff appears on my paper.

Hi, I'm Steph. I've been drawing (and writing) for about four - five years now when I moved for the fifth time. I began with anime/manga style and have branched into more realistic styles. I prefer drawing with pencil but have recently begun branching out into chalk pastel as well as clay. I have just begun my first art class and am hoping to incorporate various styles into my work.

Hey, I'm threesided. I'm an aspiring game artist, and plan to do everything I can to one day work for Bungie. I work primarily in 2D, but have been branching into 3D modelling in the last couple of years. Since graduation from University I've mostly been working in a warehouse to pay the bills and freelancing where I can. I've also been working on a game project of my own for the past year now. Y'know, bein' indie and such. I'm hoping to get back to school and learn to becoming a serious artistic force to be reckoned with in the industry Hi :3
