My Bio
I am a herpteculturist majoring in herpetology (study of reptiles / amphibians). I currently own seven snakes: five ball pytons, one red tail boa, one false water cobra. The BPs I am breeding. I am always adding to and expanding my reptile collection, and around late summer I will have several crested geckos, an Argentine black & white tegu, and more snakes added to my collection.

I mostly have done graphite and charcoal work, based on realism from photographs, but I am looking to learn more about photography and possibly clay work.

I have a fiancee who is currently in the army.

NOTE: Just because I add your photograph to a "stock" folder doesn't mean I am going to use it as stock. I just don't have two folders for each category of "stock" and "hey I like this". If it fits, it goes into the same category. If I'm actually drawing it, I check your rules first.

Hey guys! I've been faving a LOT of stock I think has potential for future use with me, and then it  occurred to me that I really need to try to flex my creativity muscle and play with anatomies. So I've been looking for user-created species to draw, maybe help them create a more realistic looking appearance if the ref sheet is kinda cartoony, y'know? I thought it'd be a good exercise. So.. If you have a species or have one you'd like to submit, please send it to me so I can look at it! I have a feeling this will become an extensive thing; I've seen a lot of really cool ideas. (: I've been thinking about creating one myself, but that'll proba

I'm a graphite and realism based artist hoping to increase my technical skill; I will be stalking a lot of you for stock photos to go from, ha ha. I've been hired for commissions around here, but never online, so I guess we'll see? Anyway, juts a brief hello. (:

Thanks for the :+fav:
thank you for the fave on Scales [link]
:)
Thanks a lot for the :+fav:!
I thank you for the fav, but I take it with a grain of salt. My work is not stock, and if used as such I will take action against it. So if I were you, I'd rename your collections, as it raises many a red flag, at least it did with me. Have a pleasant day.
Gotcha. I collect photographs as a whole, either because I simply like them or for anatomy / pose references, and categorize them all together as such, regardless of purpose- otherwise it's more of a headache than it already is. I notify all artists prior to using their work, if I am indeed using it as some sort of stock.
