My Bio

I don't consider myself an artist, but I enjoy creating meshes, textures, poses, animations and coding to realize a certain dragon from my imagination in any 3d environment suitable enough.

Mostly this will be in the form of game mods, lacking a better environment to work in. Currently it's for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

This dragon or its race isn't the only thing I'm creating though. I just enjoy creating virtual things in general.

I also started writing down the story of this dragon, which I was dreaming of and imaginating over several years now. But I'm a little behind and the story still continues almost every night. What I've written down by now is only 1% of what's in my memory. I really have to keep up before something gets lost forever.

Favourite genre of music: all that sounds good, not thinking in boxes
Operating System: Mac OS-X currently
MP3 player of choice: Media Player/QuickTime Player
Personal Quote: "The only thing I know is I don't know anything."... and even this I don't know


Favourite Movies
I don't have one single favourite of anything
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists
I don't care for bands or musicians, just enjoy the pieces
Favourite Games
The Elder Scrolls series
Other Interests
programming, robotics, 3d virtual worlds, dragons

"You're doing it for all the wrong reasons." "You're no real author." "Take your mods and go away." "You will be easily replaced. Your work is not unique." "Your leaving will not be any loss." "The more of you go the better this place will be." ...I guess I read it 1 too many times now. But I'm starting to see a pattern, I'm not seeing much else at all anymore, and I'm no longer feeling fine with what I see. Last I was told these things in the Nexusmods Mod Authors section from a Wabbajack mod list author of all people, considering themselves a "part of the team", while simultaneously picking a fight with over a dozen of famous and high profile mod authors with much bigger, more important mods than mine, some of whom being pillars of the community for way longer than even my membership now. But that's not the real problem. We have these guys regularly popping up and trying to stir the pot. They come and go, never really remain for long. Calling themselves authors and proclaiming how

Oh my, it's been quite a while since I last published anything on here! Nevertheless I've been all but inactive during all that time.First of all, I'm still alive. Well, that was not much of a surprise. I have been through quite some health issues recently, and am still not exactly done, but I'm doing fine enough right now, and that is all that counts, isn't it? My current work schedule still doesn't allow for much, but from time to time I'm getting/taking a little of such and put it into making some progress with my current modding projects.Speaking of which, it's not at all exactly the same you might remember from years ago anymore eithe...

How long have you been on DeviantArt? 5 years, 2 months and 7 days now. Though I've been a silent admirer and lurker here already for years before I began finally giving something back. What does your username mean? Drake the Dragon is the protagonist of a story of mine I came up with in my dreams many, many years ago and until recently have been continuing every night and sometimes also during the day. He's also become the main character in almost every video game RPG I played since then, and in games where modding is possible I also tried to recreate him inside the game as close to the story as possible. First sub-chapters of the story c...

Oh hi old friend, thank you for the cake badge! Hope all's been well :hug:

Oh, yeah, I'm fine as always, just still more busy than ever before and haven't been doing any hobby stuff in ages, thus nothing to show for such a long time. But I happen to turn 45 around noon today and there's those cakes, so I thought "why not" and handed them out to all old friends I know.^^;


Hope all's been well on your side, too.

Merry X-Mas and Happy Seasons!

Oh, happy birthday to you, and Merry Christmas! I've been up and down, but as for now, so far so good. Been somewhat busy playing Oblivion Remastered but I'm also trying to get back to drawing again :) I'm currently maintaining a third Nexus account while I kinda left all my stuff I had hosted on my two previous accounts behind.


I'll also be more active over at FurAffinity than here.

Thank you!

Oblivion Remastered, that's something that might be able to bring me back, if I had the time to actually play it that is.


Oh, yeah, and the Nexus. Also haven't been there anymore in ages. Lastly things and the community were developing towards an environment I didn't feel welcome in any longer, so when I no longer got the free time to hang around there either I just... kept away, and it's been like that for quite long now. I kinda miss it all and would love to see if things have gotten any better since my disappearance, alas my free time still won't allow it much, so it can't be helped anyway for now.


That's good to know. FA's another site I've also often been frequenting before.


Here's hoping for even better days!

Can you spare some points?

I'm afraid I don't have any. My balance says 0.

Many thanks for the llama. It's very lovely. Now, to think of a name for it.  :)
