   Well I used to work at an Insurance firm, but the Main owner at London decided to sell the company's asian assets, well the company that bought us ain't exactly a future building type so I split, have been working on my art, doing part time jobs rather than working full time, I guess you could say it's my calling, even my former office mates tell me I landed on the wrong job cause they saw my work. . . I thought I've been working my butt off for the last 10 years changing jobs from banks, pre need industry to insurances cause of sooo many reason that I finally decided to screw the white collar slavery and do what I want for a change, sure it may be tight on the budget but I'm satisfied with my endeavor. I see, well I do encourage some members to at lease show their ages cause I might say the wrong thing to the wrong persons, but I do understand their reasons. I tend to avoid drawing showy human anatomy in this site cause they might get the wrong idea, with all the weirdoes on the net nowadays, it's hard earning trust so I tend to be as polite to the kids here as much as possible...So what are you up to lately?...^-^

   Wow, you sure have a lot of guts quitting your job in pursue for your own interest. o.o I could never do that coz I'm already experiencing financial difficulties even when I'm already holding a job and at the same time working on my doujin. But have you ever thought of using your experience in the financial sector and put into good use for game, comic or animation industry instead of banking sectors? ^^
   
   As for me, well, I'm still working hard at drawing. Trying to improve myself most of the time and aiming for publishing. ^^ My aim is possibly publish my own comic and get it sold. It's not a difficult dream to achieve. The only difficulty is finding the time to work on it.

   Heeey!! I used to work for a company that had a main office there, a Fellow artist here in the Philippines that goes by the name of Chester Ocampo is currently living where you are, he's a little on the mature art but I idolize the man nontheless as I respect your works..^_^; Yep the equipment side is a bit over my budget but I do get around, beggars can't be choosers ya' know ^_^; No offense, I guess the reason why I thought you were a girl/woman was because you drew half naked man on your first trip here at the forums, it's in my observation that we (males) don't use that kind for a first impression lol. Anyway, ME? POPULAR? Heck no! I usually babble (which is almost totaly opposite of my non virtual persona) but never I see myself as anything more. Kids here are cool and not raunchy as those on other sites, "I hate know it all" brats.. Oh in case you haven't notice I'm really not that young anymore though I do look younger than my younger sister...^_^; I have witnesses don't worry...lol
   
   Anyhow some orignal nameless characters are up and Tomo from Azumanga (First time doing it, so please bear with it) in black and white, I don't have a light box and my pair of eyes aren't so great either! (I blame my bro's PSP for being so addictive lol;) so I let PS do the working for me with these pencils... Thanks again Ms.E.P.1

   Ooh, what are you working as? I'm just curious. Don't worry about me being an "impressionist" in images of male nekkies. I do draw female nekkies as much a male nekkies. And lots of people do tend to think I'm a guy more than a girl whenever I post my stuffs online. ^^ Psst. I'm not that young either but I'm not revealing my age.
   
   Finally, a new image from you! I'm going there to post a respond!

   I should say you made one heck of an impression on me on the site with your works. I've been stuck on a rut for a few months now getting frustrated on how to ink properly and getting my hands on one of those Bamboos/Wacom. I'm currently trying my best to use whatever equipment I have running around my drawing table from used pencils up to scratch paper just to get my mind going in drawing. He he he I think I'm talking too much for someone you haven't met before, anyway would you prefer to be called Mr. or Ms. E.P.1 cause obviously I have no idea Your works are a fresh motivation on me to continue my drawing career for what is worth. Even if it is still in Black and White most of the times...
   
   Thanks again for reading this ramble and hope to see more works in the future. . .

   Hi Strafe, I didn't expect you would drop a long comment on my profile. LoL. Thanks for the awesome comment, friend. By the way, you're right about my gender. I'm definitely a female.
   
   As for your concern on inking, everyone does face the same problems when they start to learn how to draw. It's just a matter of practice, confidence, steady hands and a pair of good eyes for details. And of course, it's essential to use the right equipments if you're a comic artist. But if you are a general artist, I suppose anything that you see can be used as art. :p
   
   Anyway, I hope to see more works from you as well. And I'm glad to be of inspiration to you and I hope to see you advance your dream career as a great artist. ^^
