WORLD WILL BE RECEIVING A RENO-JOB AS SOON AS TIME ALLOWS! Thankyou for your support and patience!

Hello and welcome to MangaKid and Ikemarth's Artist Cubby!
We hope you all enjoy your time here!

This is a world Ikemarth and I have created after our dear friend Angel Satina gave us this great idea! We wanted to create a place for artists to share their methods, experiences, tips/advice, ect. Its like a club in a community where artist friends can join even closer together^^ We will be posting anything such as our own step-by-step process of creating art, tutorials, art notices/progress, cool artistic videos, before and after pics of artwork, and simple tips as well as answer any questions that you post or have! We hope everyone, including us, will learn new artistic ways and become even more creative together as we experience each others' style. For new artists, we hope to help inspire you and motivate you to continue drawing!

Note: Check out the Cubby's sister world: The Otaku Fellowship by Aryia!!
If you are looking for tutorials on how to make wallies and ecards, please visit our friend Aria Sky's cool world The Ultimate Guide to Creating.
And if you're looking for a neat project to do, check out snow fox's Collaboration Nation!
And for additional awesome art tutorials, definitely check out ekaknr's Artist Cafe!

If you have any questions, feel free to PM MangaKid or Ikemarth! We are accepting guest posters, if you feel that you'd like to join and share your tips with the Otaku!

Rules+Guidlines: -Nothing inapropriate.
-We'd like you all to shorten your posts to new pages but you DO NOT have to shorten your profiles. Please post your profiles normally. We want the other posts to be shortened though as it'll be a lot more organized that way.
-You can post a chibi at the top of your posts if you'd like, but please make sure its small (approx. 300x300 pixels. A bit bigger then that is alright too.)
-No putting down anyone or making them feel uncomfortable (of course, we're all good friends here so I don't think we need to worry about this^^)
-If you join, you are not obligated to post (even though we'd LOVE to see posts from ya!). Feel free to post anytime or not post at all. The main thing is if you enjoy the club, learn new things, and make new friends :)

Artist Profile: Itachisasuke

Heyo all~!

Finally posting in here >3<
First off, thank you to Jen for adding me as a guest poster! As well, thanks to everyone who has posted in here, many of them have all helped and inspired me along my art path.

Alright, so introduction part.
~Country: Canada ;D
~Current Age: 19

~Anime/Manga: I know a lot, so I'll just list the ones I really love! >3< Library Wars, Special A, Fruits Basket, D.Gray Man, , Bleach, Prince of Tennis, Runnoi Kenshin, FMA, Death Note, The Nightmare Inspector, Code Geass, Ouran, Kuroshitsuji, Hetalia, Angel Beats, Blue Exorcist, Code Breaker, Psyren, La Corda D'oro, Dear My Girls, Arisa, Twin Spicia, Shakugan no Shana, Record of a Fallen Vampire, and Barajou no kiss! XD

~Art Style: Traditional & Digital
~Common weapons on the paper: pen (for sketches), mechanical 0.7 pencil, pencil crayons (crayola usually), GIANT (white) eraser, paint (occasionally), Bamboo Wacom tablet (with photoshop and Sketchbook Express). On rare occasions I try clay/plaster, pointillism, woodwork and 3-D origami [Er, that's an art right?]:3

~Miscellaneous: Erm, I've been drawing ever since I could remember. I started out with stick people (don't we all), then I really dove into drawing animals (especially horses and dragons). I also enjoy drawing different types of animals (and tend to create hybrid animals X3). I think I went on to drawing animals until mid-grade 9 where I was introduced to anime/manga. I then rapidly drew in the manga field. I've been producing tradition manga art from then on, and it was not until this past December where I've started in the digital field. I still have a lot to learn, but I look forward to improving! :D
I joined theO in 2008 (not really knowing what it was) mainly to print out pictures and draw them. Not until 2010 did I return to start posting. I've met some really amazing people that have inspired me to continue with art. ^__^ And I believe that I will only continue to learn more~ :D Hope you've enjoyed reading this!
