No problem. Your stuff looks great and I can tell even better things are to come. Out of curiosity, what are the characters a part of?

I took a self-directed study in illustration, but it kind of failed without any outside guidelines. In a fit of art-rage I smashed a paintbrush, but the resulting splat formed my first character... and the rest were variations of the same method with more or less digital influence and art added.

lol awesome story. has a superhero origin aspect to it (gamma radiation blah blah blah). So is there going to be a story to these characters? comic or animation?

Hmm.. well, having no plot was the original problem, but when I tried to string one together the production of new pieces seemed very forced and uncomfortable. The creatures are made with the spontaneity of paint splatters, but we'll see where it goes! Thanks

Hey there,

Thanks a lot for the email, but I've been on DA for over 6 years! Just changing my account due to a not so appropriate name. Can't wait to start uploading!

Take care.
