F.A.Q~~~~~
Q -
What kind of name is BleedingCrow?Answer - I created this account back in 2002 when I was 15 years old. And no it wasn't because I was emo or trying to be morbid. I couldn't think of a name for the life of me. I came up with that name because on that day I found a baby crow crippled and bleeding in my backyard. Being a bird lover, I took the baby in and tried to take care of it. Later when I went outside I found that there were
HUNDREDS of angry crows surrounding our house, sitting on the telephone wires, the fence, our yard, our roof, in the streets, everywhere. They were cawing angrily and the baby inside cawed back for help. Terrified, I let the baby free and the adults came to it's rescue. True story, embarrassing name. I can't go back and change it so whatever.

Q -
Do you like Anime?Answer - Ironically, I
hate most anime.
My comic has manhwa storytelling elements that is similar to manga but the artwork itself is mainly inspired by the artwork of Disney and Dream Works. I liked the anime from the 80's early 90's.. then they went overboard. Also, I'm not a fan of japanese style story telling/humor. My distaste for anime ten-folded once I finished 2D and 3D Animation in college. Too many bad experiences. I'm not biased against people who like anime, I just don't like it.
Q -
You're Japanese right?Answer - No~ I'm Korean and Irish
Q -
Can you teach me how to draw?Answer - There is no magic wand that will suddenly make you a great drawer. Take art classes in middle school, high school and go to an art college if you're really adamant about art. It took me 25 years to learn how to draw and even then I'm still learning. Understanding art is like understanding the world. Movement, anatomy, science, construction, color, light, mood and emotion, storytelling. etc.
Q -
What can I do to improve my own artwork?Answer - First of all, learn to draw life. Study figure drawing and anatomy. Learn what the muscles are and what they do. Only when you perfect life drawing can you succeed in believable cartooning and animation.
Q -
Any helpful hints to us inspiring artists?Answer - I am no teacher but I believe in working smarter not harder. Find shortcuts. Another important thing is to find inspiration. My inspiration is music, watching 2D animated films, playing amazing video games etc.
Find YOUR inspiration. Lastly, be unique. Don't be another copycat fanartist who only draws one style. Find a style you like and tweak it to make it your own. My style is a mix between Disney, DreamWorks and Korean Manhwa. Though finding your own unique style is important, it's equally important to sample a little of everything. Try painting, then water color, inking, sketching, cartooning, realism, surrealism and find out if you like something
Stop watching anime because it makes you stupid.
You know I find most anime/japanese lovers very annoying, pathetic and pretty much the most ignorant people on earth but I don't go around telling them that do I? What a stupid thing to do. It's their choice and I have no right telling them what to do. It's the same with annoying religious fanatics, telling others they're going to hell because their beliefs are wrong.
If you're going to say smoking is bad, then you might as well say stop drinking, stop sex, stop prescription medication, stop everything artificial, recycle, save the animals. How annoying! Yes, it's my decision. Maybe I'm stupid. But if I were so stupid then I probably wouldn't have breezed through college so easily. Once again, I find that someone so young and naive.. someone who hasn't even experienced life yet telling me what I should or shouldn't do.
For the 7 years I've been on this site I've only blocked two people..

2)you
I'm a bitch when I get annoyed but I'm not THAT much of an ass so I'll leave you alone after this comment but if you bring this topic up again then I won't hesitate to block you again. I DON'T CARE WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK I hope you understand this. Now leave it alone.
