Octillus:
What inspired Pintsize/the anthroPC in general?

Rawr and Stuff:
Who are your biggest influences artistically? Is there anyone who's artwork you study or look at to learn from and such?

I was the "weird artsy kid" at my absurdly-wealthy, pretentious all-male high school. Fortunately I was too big for the jocks to give me a hard time, and they all thought I carried knives in my backpack or something. I did a lot of art and music, pretty much like I do today. I was friends with all the weird nerdy dudes, several of whom I believe to be genuine geniuses.

Nope. QC has little or nothing to do with my personal life.

Really really hard but also really really rewarding! I wouldn't be able to do it without Cristi- there is literally too much work for one man to do, and I am absolutely awful at business things, which she excels at.

I was just drawing robots in my sketchbook one day and he appeared out of nowhere. The rest of the idea pretty much spontaneously generated itself in my mind.

I don't know if I have any specific influences. I pick stuff up from all over the place- Aido, John Allison, Jeff Rowland, Kelly Patches, White Ninja...the list goes on and on and on. I periodically browse figure drawing books and websites for new ideas.

Octillus:
White ninja artistically?


...


Seriously?

I mean I love White Ninja, but... wow.

honest abe:
Do you have a name picked out for "OCD Girl" who lives upstairs?  You don't have to reveal it now, just reassure some of us that you do have a name for her.
