I always drew, when i was 3 i drew Pippi Longstocking, when i was about 9 or 10 i had my first cartoon character (recognizable as cartoon) ____ _\___| /_ | (___| The Sargent About a year later i saw a doodle and decided that it looked like a face, i diddled it a bit and made it mine, it had no name though. I can't recreate it in ASCII, I would if i could. Many cartoon characters later i created "mr. Mo Hawk jr." another one that don't do well in ASCII, but i saved an animation i once made of him. You can view it at http://httpd.chello.nl/~p.maassen/mrmohawk.avi This has ben my most successful cartoon character, it has been published in a local magazine that didn't survive its 12th issue. >I began young, myself... >during my latter highschool years, however, my desire to draw waned and >instead a passion for poetry and the literary arts was born...
