My Bio
My name is Alexander, I'm 23 years old and live in Trollhättan, Sweden. I mostly use this account to stalk my favorite artists here on dA, but sometimes I actually submit some things of my own. And when that happens it's usually sketches and small drawings. I'm not an expert, but I enjoy it.

Favourite Movies
Silence of the Lambs, Zodiac, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Thelma & Louise, Alien(s) among many others
Favourite TV Shows
Will & Grace, American Dad, Scrubs, BBC Sherlock, Doctor Who, South Park and much more
Favourite Bands / Musical Artists

Favourite Gaming Platform
PC
Tools of the Trade
Pencils (I prefer Pilot 0.5) and black markers from Staedtler
Other Interests

Been focusing mostly on my writings right now, and therefor not drawn as much. I have a novel, and right now I'm working hard on keeping it alive, been working on the third chapter for about a month now >_

Scanner issues

0 min read
I really enjoy drawing abstract things, and I love using my markers, but I've noticed that things really don't turn out as good when letting them through my scanner. It looks damn much better than trying to photograph it with a cellphone camera, that's for sure, but well... I'm just a bit disappointed when it feels like the scanner destroys what I do. because I generally like what I draw, but can't say that anything I've submitted here looks nice. You can see every stroke of the markers, and sometimes it's almost... like the scanner gives too much contrast. And you see every tiny fault I've done. But maybe I'm just trying to blame the scanner

Well, hello everybody! I guess this is my first entry here at my all new account. I've been on dA before, actually for a very long time, but I decided to change account when I realized that my old one was from 2006, and it was just filled with scattered submission of really old pieces that I didn't really like or felt proud of. So I wanted to make way for my new pieces, what I'm doing right now, and not things I did in the past. I don't know how often I will submit things, or how often I will write here for that matter either. But I will probably be online very much to stalk my favorite artists ;) So if you ever wanna talk or ask something
