Founder and CEO of Rᴀɢɢɪᴏᴍᴇᴅɪᴀ Pʀᴏᴅᴜᴄᴛɪᴏɴs

I love to create digital works of art, as well as modifications for video games! Feel free to PM me about anything! I love to bounce ideas back and forth with others for collaborations, and would love to teach and learn from them too!

Profession:
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
Computer software and hardware engineer and troubleshooting professional. Also a digital artist, digital photographer, digital music conductor/remixer, and video game modder. Basically, anything that has to do with technology and electronics, I love and will most likely have hands-on experience and/or knowledge about them.

Founder, Owner, Supreme Commander, and Head Administrator of the [FOXHOUND] Special Forces online gaming community (clan), which was started back in 2000 when it was known as the [FOX] Elite Gaming Community. Feel free to check out our website (linked below) and join our clan! We are always looking for new players!

Personal Interests:
‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
Lover of any and all anthropomorphism, including (but not limited to) anthropomorphic animals, machines, boats/ships, planes, and plants; basically, anything that can be personified into anthro beings. Loves to browse artwork, literature, and music associated with anthro beings and the anthro community. Especially loves reptiles—namely dragons, dinosaurs, and alligators/crocodiles. I simply can't get enough of them!

Also loves to play video games and develop custom/personal modifications for them, including (but not limited to) textures, 3D models, and sounds. For my released modifications, some of them can be found at my dA and FA accounts (listed below).

Lastly, I love to volunteer my time and make a difference in this world. For this purpose, I often volunteer at non-profit organizations, charities, and other organizations/events that help enhance the overall well-being and quality of local, national, and international communities.

If you have a question you would like to ask me regarding computers/computer problems, digital media/commission requests, and/or just want to chat, don't hesitate to drop me a line! I'm very friendly and open, and love to meet new people and make new friends all the time!

Interests
I'm very fascinated by all the wonderful digital works of art that I'm seeing all over the Internet, and would like to do some of my own as well. I regularly create works of art using traditional ways, but would like to start on some digital pieces.

Does anyone know of good tutorials that they can recommend to beginning digital artists with an advanced traditional art background that they can recommend to me? Better yet, can anyone teach me the ways of the digital artist personally? I may be experienced with traditional art and computers, but I have zero experience creating digital works of art, but would most definitely love to learn how! (As you can probably tell, I'm an old-school artist, but am willing and able to learn some new tricks!) I would be honored by whoever is willing to teach me how to create digital works of art! I have the tools (Adobe Master Collection CS5.5), but I need to know how to utilize them and actually make something on the computer instead of always with a pencil/brush/charcoal/pastels/other traditional media!

I hope someone can lend me a hand and open up another door in my world of artistry! Thanks in advance to all willing to give me some guidance! :D
