You will find that the majority of my artworks are created using Photoshop Cs5, my favoured programme over GIMP which I used previously. I do use traditional methods to create my art as well, such as watercolour works and the occassional ink painting. However, my preffered traditional method of creating art is, by far, using a pencil. I often draw a rough sketch first using my hb 0.7 mechanical pencil, erase any parts I don't like with my kneadable eraser and then proceed to 'flesh it out' using my derwent graphite collection.

My Photoshop works tend to lean towards a more eccentric, more retro style when using cartoon images, and a more simplistic light-based style when using stock images. If you wish to see how I would go about making a cartoon-rendered banner then feel free to check out my tutorial, which you can find on my deviantart- linked below. I use many different names across forums and websites, I don't know why it's just a habit. But I can confirm that MalevolentStare on deviantart is, in fact, myself. The three main names I tend to use are 'Ink', 'Precipice' and 'MalevolentStare', so if you have any doubts check against these names., I can very easily prove that I am them.

With regards to commissions; I am always open to requests, so if you owuld like me to complete a piece for you I am more than happy to accomodate your wishes. I have already completed pieces for websites such as ShadowFiction- see link below- and plan to do many more should I be offered the chance. To request a piece the fastest way to contact me is through my deviantart-link below- although you can email me- see 'contact'- however, emailing will likely result in a longer time to respond as I do not check it as frequently.
