09.] Do you keep your rough drafts?
Yes, I do love to keep sketches and such.
10.] What font do you use most often?
Hmm..... Times New Roman, and or 1942 report. There's others, but I do not feel like looking for their names.
11.] When you scan your image, what DPI do you use?
I dunno what that means o0
I just scan things.
12.] Do you do anything else when you're drawing?
Well I'll be all adhd and sometimes search up videos or photos of what I am drawing, for reference and or inspiration. Or, Usually, I'll be listening to and or cutting back to a documentary/song I will have in the BG to keep me in a mood for focus.
Or take a break and play solitaire.
Did I mention I have ADHD?
13.] Approximately how many pictures do you draw in a month?
I dunno o0
Alot alot alot.
Most of the time they're just sketches,fan-art, or more personal works that will never see the light of the internet. Otherwise I'd have way too many images in my gallery.
Mostly sketches, sketch dumps, fan-arts, random things etc...
14.] What kind of paper do you draw your pictures on?
Printing papers for, well, printers. I usually go buy a package and just take some out and put it in my clipboard, which I take everywhere with me.
15.] What kind of paper do you use for rough sketches and drafts?
look at #14
16.] How long does it take you to ink something?
I don't really keep track. It depends on the details I suppose.
17.] Do you do comics, or fan comics?
Yes, sometimes. But you guys often times don't see them >8D
Either it's something you may not find interesting, something I know may be stolen, or something I know may not work and or am too lazy to draw.
I usually plan them, or sketch them. Hardly finish.
But again.
You guys don't see them.
18.] Do you like comics? Are they fun to make?
Yes, I like them, and yes they are fun to make.
19.] Have you ever submitted anything to a magazine?
Hmmm.... not that I can recall, no.
20.] Did it get published?
Nope.
21.] Who are your favorite artists?
Andreas Deja, James Baxter, Christian Riese Lassen,

A.K.A David Hartman,

,

,

,

, ......I know I am missing some people. There are several of other artists whom I really enjoy seeing art from.
22.] Do you like anime/manga? If so, what are your favorite series?
In the past I would have simply said "No". But recently I have found myself being drawn (artist humor hur hur hur) towards some animes. I do not read Mangas, no. But some animes are just so beautifully drawn, or do have a legit story line that catches my attention.
Usually it is art that is beautiful, and the animes I watch are a bit on the gory side. I don't think I can really sit through some cutesy anime with characters who have overly cute huge eyes and whatnot.
I have only watched two animes the full way through as of recently. Blood+, and Highschool of The Dead. I enjoyed Blood+, I recommend it. (No I have not seen Blood:The Last Vampire, I want to though). And I considered Highschool of The Dead a bit of a challenge to sit through.
Because of the fanservice, ALL of the fanservice. If it were just about the Zombie Breakout story it started out with, and not about boobs. It would have been more compelling, and it would have felt like much more of a horror movie.
If you can make it through the fanservice, give it a watch. If you can't, ehhh. It may not be for you.
23.] Do you like cartoons/comics? If so, what are your favorite series?
Ohh......... Cartoons and animated series? Too many to name. Just about anything Disney(especially The Lion King). I was a 90's kid so there's alot of cartoons from the 90's that I loved.
As for comics, I did not really get too much into them. I had an Aliens VS Predator comic that was released WAY before the first AVP film came around. And I own a KISS Psycho Circus comic, A Gambit Comic that came with a figurines I bought some years ago. But that's about it. Otherwise there are some online comics I've given a read. like

's "Ink". And a wolf comic called "Off-White". And there's some horror comics I wouldn't mind owning.
24.] Any artists that you wish you could draw like?
ANDREAS DEJA, James Baxter,
