FAQ
(send me questions, I'll add them!)
1) What's the process of creating a page for Crimson Shifters?
1a) It's very basic, actually. I start with sketching thumbnails on notebook paper. Once I come up with panel structure I enjoy, I load up Photoshop, put on some music, and start painting. I'm trying to stay away from scanning in lineart, because I need to improve my understanding of painting, which is why I speedpaint every single page.

2) Have you had formal training?
2a) Yes. I've had roughly 21 credit hours of illustration/watercolor/figure drawing in a Liberal Art University setting, and it has helped me improve greatly, because it taught me what to look for in my art to make it more effective.

3) What advice do you have for beginning artists?
3a) Practice! I know, it's not what you wanted to hear, but it's absolutely true. Get inspired by things around you, whether it be good stories, music, loved ones, or memories, and have at it! The great thing about practice, is there are no rules, so study to your heart's content! There's no magic way to get better at art, just constantly push yourself, and you'll be even better than you could've imagined.
Huh?
Naturally we'll have guitar playing heavy metal zombie teddy bears with katanas and motorcycles. All set to flames. With an exploding sceleton drummer lurking in the back. And a totally pointless babe. With horns. How about some flag, too? :D
Hahaha... They take only about an hour to make. And I've been waiting to get verified for a few days already. Also, I don't have a life as I cancelled my band practise for today -_-
