There is lots of it.



Not really.

People:
"What's up lately"

Jean-Luc Thomas:
"Soul caliber 4, fighting as Ages and random characters from Ages that i made...yeah...not to productive.
Some newer art has been made, but it is sent to the pile of continually growing "Must scan" Pictures. In other words i have so many, its to overwhelming to do much about it.
I also have tons of unfinished pictures that i need to get to work on.
I will be submitting finished ones, as well as some new Comedy-Comics, The whole stick man based crap that i throw out from time to time."

*Washed up artist.*

Hi, and welcome to my profile.
I am known to most as Ages.
I'm a Musician! and I'm an Artist.
Definitely a dreamer.



____________
Ages and other series and more about me.
____________

I have been home schooled since the 3rd grade due to a silly incident with a bully's accusation.
Being home schooled, i have always had time to think and be creative.
I started my creativity with drawings of dinosaurs and often made up gnarly
looking monsters that could probably tear your head off.

I began to get into this "Role playing" deal that i had been hearing about my brother playing a lot.
So i created my own character, the strange kid i was, i wanted to make a creature as a character, or a pet of some sort.I then created Plazma Raptor, which failed and i never role played as it.

The first time i ever remember creating Ages was during my boredom on my first plane ride, Ages was a mitten gloved, Clunky boot wearing
Hero of my first attempt at a serious comic, He wore a scarf flailed in the wind which i thought was "The coolest" at the time.
He lived in the desert in some mysterious place, and at the time i had not described where he was from.

I invented some monstrous creature called a "Gastyphon". I never bothered to draw much more than it's massive feet.
It attacked Ages in the desert, which later became a moon called Barron.The comic ended after Ages kills the Gastyphon from the inside out, by slashing his way through a suffocating array of organs and then after a very fateful scene into the future in many ways, as he made his way to a huge Domed city.

After that i began to get even more into Role playing, as it also became an art form for myself. Beginning in yahoo chat rooms and slowing down to private rooms with 3 or 4 well acquainted online friends.Soon i began to grow Ages into something more mature, as i grew myself. Friends began to contribute wonderful
characters some of of which still to this day are main characters in my still developing series. The first main contributions including my own, were

Ages Akelenson.(Jean-Luc.)
Iyaka Anesh.(Shenaa.)
Staff Haxon.(P.j.)
Valore Huntsman.(Jean-Luc.)
Vicious.(Bridgett.) And many others.

Soon Ages Grew into what it is now with over 20 characters with solid and emotional, and mature, background stories, some of which are still developing to fit the story. With Ages it has always been my dream to make it a graphic novel or an animation series.

Over the years i have been majorly inspired by Classic role playing game titles such as Chrono trigger,
Secret of mana, Final fantasy, and Zelda. As well as action games like Super metroid and those like it.
I was raise with a good taste for music and stories. Many things over the years have urged me on to develop
Ages more and more, Most of all it was Jesus, who i give all the credit to and thank for saving me from
very dark times in my life. I love God, and i have been a christian for most of my life.

Starting around 15 is when i really began to realize mature and important things about the spirit. Some very important and overseeing kind of characters are very Biblicaly inspired. The Oracle, or Mayim The Third(Mayim means water in Hebrew.)
Is a very Christ like figure in my story. The oracle as often called, was originally a short fish man with long claws that looked almost sinister. He evolved into the place now where he became a guide to Ages, Staff, Iyaka, and the other "Chosen". Now a 7 foot tall fish man with a finned head and a respirator that releases steam.As i continued to develop Ages, I also began routing out plot holes that riddled my mind constantly. As of now, most have been filled with proper solutions.
It's been like a long dream, and sometimes a nightmare, but i have gotten through. Thank you Jesus!
________________________
Despite my dreams of a graphic novel, I had quite often pondered on other formats.
Games, Movies. and that everlasting over incumbering thought of someone stealing ideas from me.
(Anyone who does that to anyone is a very unsavory fellow if you ask me >:[ .)
________________________
And here i am now. Ages, and multiple other series' i have created are at a stand still, i have the artistic ability, but i still lack the
Equipment. I am expecting to receive a legal copy of Photo shop cs4 as a belated birthday present. Hopefully.

I forgive you, and anyone else who would do me wrong at some time. because thats the way i have learned that life works.

Thank you for saying sorry.

And i forgive ben as well, I have chosen to depart from him though, because time and time again he seems to prove me wrong to stay with him.

Hey Ages,
I just wanted to drop by your profile and apologize to you for the way I've acted. It was completely obscure the way I treated you and what I thought you had done, but really haven't. I feel horrible, and hope that when you get this message that you will be able to forgive me for the fool I have been, and to finally realize that you were right about Ben, and that he is insane and needs help. I will continue on commenting and critizing your art, and I hope you do mine as well. After seeing your new artwork, you've inspired me to pick up the old tablet and start getting my ass in gear on a new project. Thank you for your advice and commpanionship over the years.
Peace and Love,
-Divine.

You cant tell me that if someone looks at your picture and is fully informed of Jhonen vasquez, that they wont automaticly recognize Him, not you.

My point is, i believe art is an invention, and we must invent our way of doing it. sure its fun to occasionally see what we can do by imitating a style, this even has some skill to be learned in it.

But whats important is to create your own way of doing things.

Rather from what i see, Jhonen's way.

I never heard or seen art as an invention.

Art is the process (or "product") of deliberately arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses or emotions of the artiest. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music, literature, film, sculpture, and paintings.

I don't think its possible to own a line. So that's just it. :/
