My Bio
I always wanted to work on animated shows.
After high school (oh, good old days), I was accepted in some art universities, but I definitely could not afford any, so instead of giving up I decided to buy a few cartooning books and study on my own.

Then time went by so fast, I have been trying and improving for so many years now, and yet I am still not good enough to be a pro...
It's hard to see all those artists here making so much more impressive art than what I do. But dreams cannot be fulfilled by giving up, so I'll just keep on trying and improving, again and again.

Lately I mostly worked on little video games for tablets and browsers, but these mostly show my coding abilities, not my drawing and animating abilities. (I will post these here when I can.)

Now I will have to work seriously on an animation short to show what I am able to.

Favourite Movies
those stupid old 80's/90's horror movies
Favourite TV Shows
Hundreds of awesome animated series I love so much... But what I love the most are those very old 30's 40's musical cartoons made by Van Beuren, the Fleischers, and the very first Walt Disney shorts, those were MAGIC.
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists
Oldschool 90's eurodance and hardcore, the Beatles, trance, Simple Plan, Limp Bizkit, Rob Zombie, some charleston, old 50's and 60's things, and piano... Yeah, I like various styles of music, mostly old things, nowadays music sucks.
Favourite Books
"Cartoon Animation" by Preston Blair, and "Creating Characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft.
Favourite Games
World Of Illusion (MD), Mr Nutz (MD), DoReMi Fantasy (SNES), Enchanted Folk and the School of Wizardry (NDS), Earthbound (SNES), Mario Kart Double Dash (GC), Day Of The Tentacle (DOS), Kirby (all), Brain Drain (GBC)... and The Last Door (tablet)
Favourite Gaming Platform
Sega Megadrive (yeah, not kidding)
Tools of the Trade
a pen and some paper... an antic Wacom Intuos 3, an antic computer running an antic Photoshop copy, Anime Studio and Corel Painter.
Other Interests
complaining... complaining a lot
I was away for over a year. Here I am again. Unfortunatly, the few things I am almost proud of are not finished yet, and the only stuff I can show don't look that great... As I am submiting these new stuff, I feel more and more demoralized. So many i...

Yo have a good eye for animation flows! Everything I saw here moved fluently and with natural timing for me, even that old cat you're not so fond of anymore.

I try to do stuff frame by frame myself, so your water and horse caught me by surprise with how many well placed frames they had. I'm sure you'll improve and do better stuff with time as you seemed critic of yourself. Keep it up! :)
Thank you very much for this nice and encouraging comment. :) It warms my heart and puts fight back into it, especially coming from such a good artist. Your art is great and that fishing animation is totally perfect!
Thanks for FAV on my  Children's book illustration4 by gielczynski  :)
Hey!
According to dA
It's Your B-Day! If It Is HAHHY B-DAY!!!
In deed, it was. Thanks ;)
I never understood why people celebrate getting older though.
Hi! Do you take request?
You mean paid request ? I never did but I am willing to. However I can't do it for free. According to how difficult it is, I'd say between 5€ and 15€. Is that okay with you?
Tell me what you want, then I'll do a draft and show you so I can modify anything until you are satisfied before I ink and color. Then, once finished I will show you a preview, and if you are satisfied you pay and I send the full size picture.
