What if I've finally turned into what they've always said I would turn into? A maniac. A psycho killer. A guy who enjoys quoting Sin City.

In a brief description, I play all genres of games. My personal favorites are and always will be platformers and shoot 'em ups. Galaga is probably the first shoot 'em up I have ever played and still manages to hold my attention to this day. Platformers, jeez, far too many for me to name. There are a few FPSs I like, but only if they manage to be different enough from the rest. I have my fair share of fun with other genres as well. Except fighters, I tend to be pretty bad at those but it still doesn't put a hamper on the amount of fun I can get from them.

I was born in 1990, my first video game system was a Sega Genesis and it was probably the best thing I had ever had the chance to play. As the years went, as did my interest in the video games field. Parents and relatives usually got me game consoles for birthday and christmas gift, you wouldn't believe how excited I was when I got my first SNES. My older brother and I did all we could to pool money together to buy GameBoys (Possibly a GameGear at some point as well) and eventually the Playstation 1 and 2. I can safely say that I have interacted with every Nintendo, Sega, Sony, Microsoft, and a few Atari consoles and handhelds at least once. As of now, I still play games as often as I can, despite my game library has not been expansive as it once was when I was in my "prime." Since GameFly and various other rental places popped up, I have still been able to keep playing to my heart's content.

As of now, college usually eats up some days. Whenever I'm not doing college activities, I am improving my drawing abilities, watching movies, expanding my musical tastes both new and old, partying with friends, eating cultural food and, of course, playing games.

And I am a sucker for just about anything film noir, enough so that I occasionally write in that style. Rad stuff.

OMG samurai for Jimbo OMG :O

...OMG

Yeah, kind of a big deal for me. I've been wanting to post this earlier this week, but schoolwork and family stuff got in the way, so I didn't have as much time as I could to work on it. And the time I did work on it, I spent more time constantly making very small edits to it rather than actually making progress on it. I go insane whenever I have days like that. And a lot of days spent on this were like that. They sucked. But I persevered and finally got this thing done, I'm happy.

Life story out of the way, back to Jimbo.

Facial hair was fun to do, trying to get any resemblance of a sword was not, that's something I need to learn how to do in the days to come. The eyes took a while to do, as I had about four different takes on how to do them, trying to choose the best pair took a day in itself. And trying to do a robe at first feels like a chore, but gradually became a bit more enjoyable as I neared the end for that part.

Also, Jimbo constantly coaxed me to do this thing, true story.
