I'm just your boring average ex-account who wasted a lot of his youth playing fantasy RPGs (Role-Playing Games), specifically Dungeons & Dragons and Stormbringer/Elric, originally for outside Philadelphia PA who turned to computer graphics as an artistic outlet. I spent 30 years from the mid 80's to late 2012 living in Palm Beach County FL (North Palm Beach to be specific), working for not-for-profits in the social service and health care arena, but suffered a health crisis due to undiagnosed diabetes which had me in the hospital for 5 months, cost me part of my left foot, and has taken several years to recover from. I now live in Milford DE to be near family. My diabetes has left me with advanced renal disease, forced me to start dialysis, which I can fortunately do at home, but has me locked up for an hour four times a day (which allows me plenty of time to keep up on my gallery comments), but I still have a fair amount of independence and my health issues aren't nearly as bad or inconvenient as many others are. Most of my work is inspired by those fantasy RPG campaigns I wasted a lot of my youth on. I tend to post series of images with rather lengthy narratives that add up to short stories, or chapters in on-going tales. Thank you for your interest and attention!
Update:
Due to a very seriously broken ankle and shin I've been stuck in a wheelchair for over a year with an external fixator on my right leg, but I'm still managing to get by on my own.

Looking at this excellent fellow, I'm hearing John Rhys-Davies' voice for some strange reason... LOL What a great character!

Thanks again for all your kind comments! I don't think I'll ever see a dwarf and not hear that voice... Its so iconic! I had to go back to the Freak (3rd generation) for this one because I just can't get a decent dwarf out of Micheal 4 or Freak 4.

As a dwarves fan I approve this character. Ha ha
Silliness apart, I think he looks very good and has a friendly face. :)

looking good, someone you want on your side, not opposing you

Thanks again for all your kind comments! Yes... its always good to have a dwarf at your back in a fight! Tarl is the other main character that hasn't really changed at all... I did alter his backstory a little to consolidate where the character's all originate... which should make the story of how they come together as a group make more sense (I hope).

Little big Man is looking great - Cheers (I need a beer now)!

Thanks for all your kind comments! I just had to show him with two of his three favorite things... his axe and a pint (the censors wouldn't like me depicting the third).

Awesome dwarven warrior character!

Thank you for your kind comment! I find it hard to do a dwarf that doesn't seem a little too comical.
