Hi! Are you currently taking requests at this time? I had an idea for one involving Zaki, but I figured it would be best to ask first just to make sure you're ok with them.
No answer.
Thank you for allowing your work in the DoctorDoomFanartClub
Great job with Darkstalkers, Samurai Shodown and Killer Instinct characters! Congratulations!
You want to draw new characters from Samurai Shodown and Darkstalkers?

Damn, you're pretty good. And I'm just talking about your old stuff. XD
Would you ever be interested in offering commissions (2D or 3D)? If so, what kind of prices would you want?
