Well, as I said, I'm starting a series of mock banners for individual members of this lovely web site. And so here are the first two, The Iron Ninja, and the Necroist of Swansons.
To get in before the rush, Do one for meeee? Please?

Here's a spot of selective coloring I did recently strait off of my Flickr page.

That's pretty damn sweet. What was the exposure time? You should come to Australia so you can photograph my "violins". *Cough cough.*

Where are you from? Because if I didn't know better, I'd say you were from AWESOMETOWN.

(that sounded cool in my head)

I actually had my camera ( a Canon Rebel XT) set to automatic focus without the flash on, so I'm not exactly sure. As for photographing your "violins", well...

Actually I live in Kansas City. One of my best friends is a Wiccan, so after dark at her "Handfasting" (which is like a wedding) a bunch of people started doing firespinning. It's a combination of dancing and arson, so what's not to like?

Actually in the line of the next six you are next. You'll either love it, or decide it's time for me to get kicked in the junk.
I do however have to brush up on my Katakana before it's finished.
I wonder how this line was assembled. People Necro felt like drawing, people who asked Necro in order, or just names from a hat? Also, I feel like these will be proceeded by several posts of "How many until me?", or "do one for me!"

Awesome stuff.
Do you do anything professionally?
Other than self promotion? It depends, I've done commission drawings in the past, but nothing that really entitles me to a hall-of-fame mention.

Oh! I have a local gallery putting my work up in a few weeks! I'll probably sell a painting or two through this place, but either way it'll be awesome to finally get out into the public 'eye'.

Ahahaha. I do like it, though I think the hair's just a little too short (Mine is down to my hips.), and it should say "If you're happy and you know it, I'll happily slit your wrists."

A nice pencil sketch of yours truly done by Labyrinth herself as a request. Isn't she great?

That is really cool!

I wish I had a scanner so I could post one of my recent drawings, it beats the hell out of the last one I posted(though, admitedly, it's not that hard).

Impressive stuff all. I've always been rather shy of showing off art work (the trade off for having a big mouth and no stage fright), and would appreciate any commentary that could be mustered up.

I've only just learned to paint recently, this is what I've done:

Should probably note that both were a bit butchered by the scanner.

Got a tablet recently too:

Not so hot, I confess.

I've always been more comfortable with ink and pencil:

I'll leave it at that. More than enough. Critiques and suggestions are truly welcomed. I won't bore with any written word.
