I thought that was the weakest one personally. But I do like most of the pictures. It good to see someone actually draw lips around now with anime out and all. And it's good that you took time to draw them I can see that. Some people just draw 2 minutes and call that shit art. But you can't draw so fast and expect your artwork to be nice. I hate that shit( other people)

Yes. I posted pics a while back. I think I still have the pics. If I do I'll post them up. I think I'll be making another set some time. These turned out a little tall. The back is 5" and the front is about 4". I would like to make a set that are the same height as the Neo Geo joysticks.

I'd love to see more mr. wizard stuff too. you've got another fan do you have a gallery somewhere?</strong><hr></blockquote>
Wow thanks zark! I don't have a gallery unfortunately. I wish I did have a site to post my stuff up though. Yours' is quite nice. Some of you stuff shows definite comic book skill. I've never found a style of art to call my own. Mine is spurratic (spelling?), changing all the time. You seem to have found a style to call your own. Thats a definite must in comic books, animation, and so forth. Anyway, keep it up. I'm currently trying to finish up a calendar of custom chopper bikes that I made in Illustrator. My SNK stuff is kind of on the back burner . Hopefully I'll get back to it soon.
Thanks,
Later

I liked the style you have going, You should post some of your calendar work. (somebody in the snk universe rides a bike
I wanted to do comics at some point, but kind of moved down a different path in the end. Maybe I'll get around to doing a zine at some point. Might be cool to have snk short stories or something.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Maybe so. I wouldnt want to get bashed by the Neo Geo police though. Some members hate it when you post stuff other that arcade or snk related stuff. But I think I will anyway, if people are interested. Thanks zark. What is it that you do for a living? Is it art related?

I work for a small video game company in california. Before that I had a dozen jobs doing a lot of freelance. How about yourself?</strong><hr></blockquote>
Arg! <img src="graemlins/blowtop.gif" border="0" alt="[Blow Top]" /> I am most jelouse. I have always wanted to work for a video game company creating games. You are a lucky individual. I worked as a production artist for a travel magazine for a while and now for a telecommunications company doing the same. Dallas sucks for illustrators. I would rather work in video games, childrens books, or comic books than what I do now. As far as the illustration goes, its done mostly in illustrator and touched up in photoshop. I will change the illustration above out with a new one. Each time you see it and want to see another let me know and I'll change it. Most will be incomplete as I have a problem of starting stuff and running out of time or interest to continue and eventually start something else. A creative mind never rests I guess. Later.

I know the feeling. I have a tough time spending more than a sitting on a peice. The game job thing is cool, but if you really wanted to work in games I'm sure you could do it. It would probably require a move though. California or Austin.
I did the freelance illustrator gig for awhile. I found that it took a lot of self promotion to get the clients. it was almost more work than the work I ended up doing freelance video work which was more available and steady.
I could never get my head around drawing in illustrator. I love the look though. Nice and clean.
lets see another!
