My Bio

Digital artist stamp by WhiteKimahri Commissions - Open by SweetDuke Proud Musician -Stamp by musicalsusical Composer Stamp by theshaggyfreak

Greetings program! My name is Bill and I'm 40 years old. I'm a musician, audio engineer, sound designer, photographer, and graphic artist. Send me a message if you want to know more.

...Oh! Check out my website to see my webcomic, listen to my original music and various other bits of geekery.

**Commissions**

All commissions are billed at an hourly rate of $20 per hour. I may be willing to put a special package together depending on size and scale of the project. Please contact me if you have any questions.

1) Original 3D character artwork for web or print.
2) Vector art for web or print.
3) 1 1/4inch buttons (pins).
4) Original music and sound effects.

Requests for artwork can be of anything you want as long as it doesn’t go beyond PG 13. In other words, nothing too naughty. Feel free to roam through my gallery to see some of my previous pieces if you'd like to get a feel for the kind of work that I do.

All of my buttons are 1 1/4 inches and I will create up to a batch of 100 using a custom design. The design work falls under my hourly fee. The buttons themselves are $1 each or 7 for $5. Contact me for quantities beyond that.

A song request can be of any genre or style. I can create original music anywhere from rock to classical and just about everything in between. Do you need music for your video game? I can do that! I also will work on scores for independent films and other video projects. I can even do your foley effects!

So, if you are interested in any of the above, please send me an e-mail at shaggy@zoiks.org. Once we work out the specifics, I’ll send you an invoice as well as give you an estimate on when you can expect your purchase. Since I’m a one man show, I’ll need to schedule commissions out so that I can get things done in a timely manor.

Current Residence: Centreville, VA
Favourite genre of music: Just about anything
Operating System: OSX

So, it's been a little crazy here during the past couples of days. I'm part of the crew that will be working on the Megatokyo Visual Novel Game with Fred Gallagher and our Kickstarter campaign is really taking off! We're getting close to hitting 85,000 and it's only been two days! Anway, I invite you to come over and check out what we have going on!  http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fredrin/megatokyo-visual-novel-game

So, Intervention is only a few days away and I'm working hard to get everything ready for all of you lovely people who are going to be there. The picture above shows just a few of the things that I'll have with me (no, you can't have the little Casio). I'm definitely just about ready to party down with all of my geeky friends!Today I spent a good deal of time putting together the music that will be part of the Electro-Poetry thing that I'll be doing at the convention. I wanted to get this part finished beforehand so that I could spend more time fitting in all the stuff that people submit at my table. Remember to stop by and give me your ...

**This is cross posted from my website***I really do enjoy going to various types of conventions and I've been to several different types: science fiction, fantasy, horror film, anime, comic and culture. Despite only starting to visit these things about twelve years ago, I feel that I have a well rounded perspective on what's out there in the United States. I can't really speak for other areas of the world but I imagine that there are a lot of similarities.Not only have I attended conventions as a spectator but I have now been to quite a few as an artist. You really do see these gatherings from a different point of view when you're on the ...

Thank you so much for the :+fav: on What a Cool Witch !! :heart::heart:

:iconballoonplz::iconfaveplz:
Happy birthday, William!
You're welcome!
Hi! Just stopping by to thank you for watching my account, but I have moved to :iconfictograph: - please re-add me there for all future updates! You may un-watch this account.
Happened to come across your page by chance when I noticed your comic pages. Thought it was cool to see another artist delving into a mix of arts from comics to music like I've been attempting!

Thanks! I'm actually a musician first. The comic came sort of by accident about 4 years ago and I've just been keeping at it and working to merge them together.
