My Bio
Well, decided to create an account for the two of us (me, Renton AKA Astral, and my GF, Simone AKA Astrial).
For the most part, we're here for fun. Neither of us plan to accomplish much from dabbling in art any time soon.

We are amateurs, for the record. No training and not a lot of experience (especially me, I started fiddling very recently indeed). Our skills may be lacking now, but hopefully, with time, we'll be able to nurture them and be able to create some impressive works. For now, we enjoy ourselves (together).

Basically, she draws (physically) as she wants and I edit (using GIMP) her drawings digitally, giving them colouring, backgrounds and generally a bit of style. I may not work on every picture she draws, but I'm also rather unlikely to work on any picture drawn by any other in the near future. We are a team, essentially.

In the future, she may begin uploading some photography work, as she may start working on learning that skill soon. I have started (and shall soon continue) to learn some 3D modelling skills myself, as my personal skill (or lack thereof for now).

Hello, we (I, Astral (aka Renton) and Astrial (aka Simone) are new here! We're amateurs, but we'd love to have some feedback on the bit of work we've done. If you randomly feel like requesting that we redo a piece or recolour a piece, drop us a message and we'll consider it.
