I've spent a few years sculpting and painting models of monsters,characters, even their surrounding environments. Giving me a great depth for 3D designing. I have already worked on 3D studio max and have a general understanding for the program.
My whole life has been dedicated to concept designing since I was 7, and would doodle characters in which I would then use for scribbled comics. I'm a natural when it comes to this, and am able to really think outside the conventional box. I play video games, I watch cartoons, and I read comics. My ultimate goal in life is to reproduce that which I am so passionate about. And I would like to be able to influence generations of young aspiring artists the same way I was when I was just starting off.

Greendale Can't Fail...It Seems...
NBC
Picks Up ‘Community’
For Season 5
Finally,
we got some good news on the situation of the popular neo-comedy
sitcom “Community.”
NBC confirmed on Friday that the show will be back for a fifth
season. Due to NBC giving show runner Dan Harmon the pink slip, Chevy
Chase losing his mind, and the ratings for the fourth season being so
low. Many fans of the series feared it would be cancelled. With “30
Rock” and “The Office” and “Parks and Recreation” being the
only other popular and marketable sitcom on the network, NBC needed
to pick up “Community” to rebuild their sitcom programming. The
show generates lots of positive buzz and good DVD and Netflix numbers
did help out too. So, if you’re a fan of this series, cheer up,
you’ll be getting another season at Greendale Community College.

Two Big, Non-Big Two, Reviews..!
Comic Reviews By Panagiotis Drakopoulos
Dark
Horse Presents #23: This months issue features the long awaited
return of Dan Jolley’s Bloodhound. Bloodhound doesn’t miss a beat
since the original ending of the comic series way back in 2005(which
I‘ll be reviewing the original series at some point). It’s great
to see Dan Jolley bringing back Travis Clevenger from the land of
obscure to new readers looking for new material outside of the big
two. Other highlights in this issue include, Simon Roy’s Tiger
Lung, Pete Doree & Sean Phillips’ Gabe And The Sandpiper
(Imagine a pulp version of Lara Croft. I hope Pete and Sean have
future stories planned in DHP.), Mike Baron and Steve Rude return
with more Nexus, and Geof Darrow teasing us with a Shaolin Cowboy
back cover and Big Guy and Rusty insert image.
Jupiter’s
Legacy #1: Mark Millar and Frank Quitely reunite after their
milestone run on The Authority, which happened about thirteen years
ago. In this ten issue/chapter maxi-series features a family of
superheroes and how the parents and children view their powers and
the use of those powers. Millar adds a real world element to a world
with superheroes. Dealing everything from the stock market crash of
’29 to what President Obama should handle his second term. It feels
like a weird cross between Kick-Ass and Fantastic Four. Along with a
tight script from Millar, we got Quitely on his a game. Making
Jupiter’s Legacy into a sexy and stylish comic. Quitely’s
character and costume designs feel fresh and realistic. I know a lot
of people are down on Quitely for how he draws his female character,
but for this story it fits well with the characters presented in the
comic. Something tells me that by the end of the summer we might get
a Jupier’s Legacy movie deal. The only thing I’m worried about
this comic, can Frank Quitely keep up with a monthly schedule? I just
hope the final issue won’t be out around 2016.
