2. When do you started skinning and for which game?
I started skinning around February 2000. Quake3 was the first game I made skins for, then months later, I bought UT and started skinning that too.

|
3. Do you remember your first skin ?
My first skin EVER is a skin called Rika for the Mynx model for Quake3.
My first skin for UT is a skin called Val-Kyrie for the Rumiko model.

4. Can you tell us, for which games you have made customskins?
Quake 3 and UnrealTournament. Each game has its ups and downs. Quake 3 has problems with my .shaders and UT's UnrealED is the most unfriendliest tool I ever used! ;o;

5. Which Skin's/Model's you have made for Unreal Tournament?
Most recent listed first.
Team Saphiria 2047 for the RiotGirl model
[TFF]Kiwa for the RiotGirl model
Lunar's Xenobia for the Female Commando model
ChaosUT Val for the Rumiko model

6.What skin/model are you working on at the moment?
I'm working on my first Q3/UT model which is a cat-girl based on the drawings and sketches from http://www.val-kyrie.com.
I also have another Crash/RiotGirl dual release up in the works as well as a skin for Roger Bacon's 666 Crusader for Quake 3.

7. How much time do you spend on a great skin/model?
As much as I can ... without all the breaks in between, it could be a whole day or two! And that doesn't include any special botfiles for Quake3!

|
8. Do you want to say something to the community?
I just want to say that we're all respected skinners and modellers. We've been newbies before so don't feel bad if you're one. Just keep working harder and someday, you'll become respected and well-known.
But I have some catch-22's ...
1) I don't do clan skins.
2) I don't do DBZ-related skins.
3) And ... I don't skin the Male Soldier model ... there's TOO MANY MALE SOLDIER SKINS!

9. Can you imaging, making skins for other games like Unreal2 in the future?
Heck yeah! I can't wait for Unreal2 and Doom3 to come out so I can make skins for it! ^o^
