# About me
I'm a tall guy from Canada with a Spanish and Scottish background and I like to draw and paint.I love all kinds of art, with a focus mostly on manga, science fiction speed painting, and portraits, while usually staying away from surreal, macabre and modern art styles.
I really like to read doujinshi (provided it is acceptably written) because of how funny, daring or emotionally gripping/evoking it can be. I aspire to do some doujinshi, 4koma and just general funny images and/or series of images in the future because of how much fun they can be to create.
I update a few times a year and practice on and off, but continually.
I hope you find some stuff you like here - something I hope to make easy for you to do in the future.
Cheers.
Oh yeah; and I have no idea why Rudess is petty my arm. :D

Yeah though I mainly play 2D Mega Man, never played much Legends or BAttle Network.
I think it reminds me of RainbowDevilMKII or whatever he was called in Mega Man Zero games.
Unless you're referring to Mortal Kombat lol.

Nah, "MK" is an abbreviation for "Mark," which is usually a status for military purposes.
2D Mega Man is the best, especially Mega Man X! Some games just failed when they went 3D lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
A lot of people do like Legends tough and got mad when 3 was cancelled.
Yeah I like all the series. Original, X, Zero, all the 2D ones.

lol oh my. next week you're turning 5 years older than me owO;
unrelated, what city do you live in? i live in ottawa btw!
do you go to anime conventiooooonsssssssss, cause it's so rare to find a touhou fan here. TTnTT;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahaha yeah, but it feels good to be older
I'm around Vancouver and I hit up the occasional convention, but I don't really fit in because I'm usually wearing non-cosplay type clothing and I'm like 6'5".... so I'm kind of a wild card haha
Duuude how is Ottawa for conventions? The east always gets the big stuff....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you... are talllllllllll!!! verrry tall.
Ottawa conventions aren't that huge, 'cept for one in Gatineau (you can count that as Ottawa I guess, since you only have to cross the river to get to the convention from Ottawa 
The ones that are really huge though are the ones in Toronto, like Anime North and Fan Expo. Buuuuut I never went there

Hahaha thanks
Awesome so cool I would have to GET you if you were dressed up as Sakuya
Ahh yes Touhou is very hard to find in Canada I saw a Cirno and called... him baka lol it was funny he laughed too
It would be good to see a CANADIAN Touhou fan like you over here some time haha

this might sound odd but!
look at your avatar when you listen to
this song. (if you want! im not forcin' ya)
[link]
the song and the avatar work perfectly
together.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think the beat of the song is very similar, but a little bit off from Nitori's manic dancing lol
Who's band is this? I have never heard them before. They seem like they are starting out. The sound recording levels are really high on the sample I got so there is a lot of white noise because of clipping. I play music and write songs myself so this is kinda cool to hear.
Thanks for the link!... and btw your name reminds me of like 3 Touhou characters in one lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha you are right, i think there is one point in the song where
the combination is flawless.
im not sure who is in the band but i know they are from colorado.
they are just kinda starting out. that track you just heard is
one of there newer releases.
its great to know you play music, i play& write as well.

what paint system do you use because your drawings are really good
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you very much!
I use SAI. It's a japanese program that is really light weight (doesn't take up much of a computer's RAM to run) unless there are a lot of layers. It feels a lot better than Photohop for me because of how smooth it is and how sensitive it is to tablet pressure and orientation. If you're able to, try it out. It's a lot more simplistic and lacks the muscle that photoshop has, but it has a couple of aspects about it that make it VERY helpful and a genuinely good program.
Thanks for the comment!
