Re: SKETCHBOOK - Suprore - NSFW
You guys are the best, i appreciate the feedback and advice a ton. I pretty much do art in a vacuum, except occasionally asking the ever badass funkybunnies for crits, so posts like those give me a ton of direction and encouragement.

Re: Kids today....
I stopped caring about music genres when I was out of kindergarten. What is Metallica? Dunno. Do I like them? Yes. What is System Of A Down? Dunno. Do I like them? Yes. What is Led Zeppelin? Dunno.
