Hi there!  And thank you!  Yes, I was set up at the Tekkoshocon. I was in the artist alley (that is, the hall way where all the video rooms were)  I was about in the middle of the hall, I had my artwork and  custom made fairey figures. Tekkoshocon was really a plesant surprise. I didn't make a millon dollars there, but it  wasn't bad at all. The vendor room was the only disappointing thing.

I really like El Hazard, the 1st OVA series mostly.  El Hazard 2 , was okay. Alternate world wasn't bad.  I never got through the TV show. It was just really what
I hate the most about a "TV" version. But, the 1st El Hazard was wonderful. A good example of the best
that anime has to offer.  

I must say I'm surprised that you could make out anything at all from my Ebay image of Shayla-Shayla. For some reason her Ebay image came out the worst! I've wasted hours trying to fix it!

I tried to get all the anime characters I did as close
as possible to their animated selves, in look and coloration.  I got an artbook of El Hazard for referance, it covered both the OVA & TV show. Without it, the pic would've been MUCH harder.  I havn't tried any other El Hazard characters yet, but having referance is half the battle.  My drawing are mostly Prisma color markers, with Prisma color pencils over top.My usal image area is 10x15.  Oh, I am open to commissions. Price is mostly based on how much work (full background, number of characters, etc.) you want done.

I've been drawing on and off for years. I happen to like
Damsels in Distress, and got tried of seeing drawings of
anime characters that I had to read the text to figure
out who it was supposed to be.  So I desided to do my own.

I mostly have done work on my own manga/comic characters.  And really these are the first anime characters I've tried.

You have an El Hazard website? What's the address?

It's funny, amoung the other drawings I did, there is one of the old 1980's version Dirty Pair, bound with tape above a vat of pink acid like stuff. Below, in the back ground are the villians looking on with grins. I drew a kind of generic "main bad guy" laughing.  After I finished it tho, I realized it was a kind of Katsuhiko
Jinai!!! Even other people have caught it!

Oh, I'm from McKeesport.  And my name is Jeff Gusky.
Where are you located at?



So much for the stories.  Ah well, we'll see where this goes... ;p

They just get in the way for the aspiring World Dictator. It's always "Me, Me, Me" with them, and they never seem to understand or approve of it when you leave your victims in diabolical and overcomplicated yet easily escapable death traps in the living room or dining area. "Can you at least put them in the garage?" They say. "I just shampooed the carpet, and brains are so difficult to scrub out." Such whining! >:(

And don't even get me STARTED on the trouble kids cause! Sons always seem to end up gunning for their old man, and do daughters ever NOT fall in love with the handsome hero? Bah. Nothing but trouble. :P

Wait a minute.

I'm not an aspiring dictator!

Bring on the ladies! ;D

For the record, we had a short chat about some of the EH series varients and stuff.  Seemed like an El-Hazard lover, and said "You're really the great lord god of El Hazard-dom!" but ultimately I feel this will not lead to anything more.  Just didn't seem like a go anywhere conversation at least in a personal sense.

...Prismacolor markers...

:: drools and falls over ::

GOD I've ALWAYS WANTED a set of THOSE BASTARDS! But they cost a small fortune... a good set will run you close to (or above) $100...

... someday I WILL have my markers :: nods ::

And they make kick ass pencils. :: hugs her pencils which are growing ever smaller ::

Little Rock lights the way... or maybe he's just leading us to a firey death. Meh, either way...

I used to have a set, but since my aunt worked for the company I got them for free.  ;D

Anyway, I prefer using Illustrator and Photoshop to do my coloring nowadays. Painter is a good program too. Unfortunately, my computer is so damn shitty that it keeps crashing whenever I use them for really big projects. Stupid Windows ME...  >:(

Another Pittsburgher... slightly more exuberant.  o_O

I'm wondering how old this person is.  I've learned you can't make assumptions even if their typing is lacking case and full of smilies.  :P  Concidering friends in the "20's", this one might actually be as well.

I think you're supposed to be at least 18YO to use eBay.  Not that means anything in the real world, of course.

Think s/he will get a buyer?  $60 for six VHS tapes, even if they're brand-new?

BTW, congrats on winning the fanart auction.
