Marina, but you can call me Moku or any/all nicknames, some people call me Cheesy :3

Uh.. profession?? I like to draw a lot, especially spartans, and animals as well as creatures from games and media I enjoy! EDIT: uhh- I mean- I TOTALLY KNEW WHAT THAT MEANT- UH- UH-..... Student..

I'm 15 years old!

Drawing, gaming, daydreaming about animatics and ocs I want to make.

I love the spartans the most! They really were the things that brought me in when I was a lot younger!

Favorite Halo game would be Reach! It was the first game I was exposed to and the one that stuck out to me the most, it was beautiful to me,
love the characters too! They have personality, some just don't see it, I guess.

My favorite games in general are the Halo games, Hollow Knight, Rain World (still pretty stuck with Rain World because its hard but, ehhh) FNAF (Security Breach is my fave) and generic things like Minecraft and such (guess you could say whatever "the kids" my age are into)

MARVEL (specifically Spider-man and Deadpool related things) Warrior Cats (used to read them but now I don't have as much time to) studying 2D animation, researching about things like animals or cosplay related things or whatever, really. Star Wars (watched the first movies a few times a long time ago, but I like the Clones, though I forgot a lot about them now) might be forgetting a few things but it doesn't matter XD

Ramen, poroshki, pizza, Trollis, a very specific type of potato salad one of my Russian aunts make, and a few other things, I'm really not too picky.. so...

My music taste is everywhere, so I don't really stick to bands, more of individual artists (unless that still counts) but I'd say maybe Imagine Dragons? I dunno, more into individuals and not just bands.

Wall-E, the Spider-verse films, The Prisoner (its an old show) Spider-Man cartoons (2007 spectacular Spider-man is the best :3)

I hope to learn any and all info to get better and better at anything I might want to do with making cosplays and just 3D printing in general! Love to see all that stuff!

Embarrassingly, I DID make a costume once, just made out of two cardboard boxes maybe 3 or 4 years ago or something?? Just when Among Us started becoming popular, and yes, it was a crew mate costume XD

This is the first kind of costume community I've joined, and I feel pretty excited about it!

And theres that!! :3

 

[Legend 113]

I agree with u on the spectacular Spiderman show, it was my favourite thing to watch as a kid. I know this was a little off topic but I just had to say it
