PROOF THAT I'M LAZY. This profile x-posted from my Y!gallery. Oh ho ho, that's right.

Arr, matey. Zethtlangshyo finally decided to write a profile.

Me:
I attend the Art Institute for a bachelor's degree in Game Art and Design (I'm gonna make video games for a living, basically). I'm a super-nerd, a fan-cracker, a game-lover and a layabout with a touch of grammar nazi. I'm a wholehearted advocate of Internet Rules 34, 35, and 63 and am a semi-closeted supporter of a whole lot of strange (and not-as-strange) fetishes...

I enjoy designing, dancing, role-playing, reading, art jamming/conspiring with other creators, and the like. I love drawing both fluff and erotica, particularly of fandoms, especially hard-to-find fandoms. Most of my "original" art is for school, which means I'm mainly a fan-artist out on the 'net... though I swear up and down that it's not all I do. Just all I'm allowed to show.

I'm an open book, willing to give just about anything a try and just about anyone the benefit of the doubt. I love talking to people - don't hesitate to shoot me a note if you need something.

I love fresh fruit and making people laugh. I swear a lot, I apologize too much, I enjoy being silly in public, I am vain and think everyone else should be too, and I love my damn cat more than anyone else has loved their damn cat, ever. Ever. Lastly, I do not prefer pirates to ninjas, or vice versa.

Requests/commissions: YES. I do. And I'm cheap.

Tools:
Regular ol' graphite, 5.mm mechanical pencil (or smaller), 6x8 Intuos3 Wacom Tablet

Programs:
PhotoShop, Flash, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Maya, Zbrush, Game Maker...

Games:
(Any title that has more than one game to it likely means I've played/loved the entire series...it's not worth the strain to my wrists to name each one individually)

*DEEP BREATH* ...Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Devil May Cry, Legend of Dragoon, Chaos Legion, Final Fantasy, Jak and Daxter, FEAR, Legend of Mana, Skies of Arcadia, Kingdom Hearts, Halo, Folklore, Prince of Persia, Mario All Stars, Legend of Legaia, Donkey Kong, Dance Dance Revolution, Drakengard/Drag-on Dragoon, Monster Rancher, Fire Emblem, Bejeweled 2 (guilty pleasure), Audio Surf, the Spore Creature Creator, Threads of Fate, Samurai Warriors, Parasite Eve, Metal Gear Solid, Magna Carta, Chrono Cross, CastleVania, Bujingai - God damn it, I like games, okay?!

Other Fandoms:
Horror movies. No specific series/movie - just pick one, especially if it's corny, fetish-y, or a slasher film. I may have pulled a character out of it. (read: favorite ideas for original characters and stories acquired here.) Also, I do like anime, I just don't watch a whole lot of it...because I'm interactivity-centric and I hate sitting and watching things for too long. I like to be doing something...which means I heavily lean toward games over movies. But I also enjoy comics, such as anything by Jhonen Vasquez (God, don't we all, I'm a part of the pitiful masses...) and I adore cartoons. Storm Hawks (and many, many others).

Also, Thundercats. And The Last Unicorn. For the fucking win. Cross-overs, AU's and other complete bullshit weirdness also rock, imho.

I Detest:
...Actually, there's very little that I don't like. I hate when people watch me brush my teeth, or when strangers watch me eating. I hate windows, they creep me out. I hate my hair in the mornings and I hate when people tell themselves they're not good artists, or compare their own skills to others' for whatever reason. I hate when people think they need to be in a relationship to be successful or feel good about themselves. I hate when people think they're anything less than awesome - you all are beautiful, now get over it. Your complexes shouldn't be able to stand up to your sense of self-worth. Swallow them and realize that you have something great to offer us all, or you wouldn't be here, would you?

I'm an ugly duckling, proudly growing up into an ugly swan, and I would have me no other way, for bleeding fuck's sake!
