Passions
I love computer games, animation, movies, drawing, modeling, just everything with a good visual design! And I love the Fantasy and Sci-Fi genres in any form available. I also like to read up on history and am known as hobby ethymologist ;). Oh yeah, when I design something medieval, I listen to medieval music. When I do something Sci-Fi, then either John Williams or Electronic are the way :)!
