FirestormCAN 246 July 9, 2013 Share July 9, 2013 Relax, your sentries are safe from me... I didn't bring my sticky bomb launcher. Anyways, hello one and all, my name is Firestorm, or Nasa as my old friends from Neopets call me. I've been a fan of Friendship is Magic since the midway point of Season 1, and boy have I seen a lot come out of this crazy cartoon. Not just the show itself, but the entire stinkin' fandom. Seriously, I have never seen so much creativity and passion. Of course, like with most fandoms, it works in both ways, but I won't delve too much into it. At all. I'm a vector artist by trade, first recreating poses from the show itself for others to turn into wallpapers, collages, and lots more. After a while, I was contacted by Garrett Gilchrist aka Tygerbug, who asked me to create vector versions of his work. And I have to say, I'm very proud to be working with him. He's the most understanding and compassionate artist I have ever met, so I'm thankful to have met him. Right now I am Deputy of Design for BronyCAN, managing the art team to design, create and flesh out beautiful graphics for the convention. I'm also the project lead for the convention's Tumblr blog, Ask BronyCAN. Being practically next door to Richmond, I was very excited to help out this convention get off the ground and show what Canada's got to offer. Why haven't I joined these forums before? Laziness. That's why. But I'm here now, and I look forward to meeting and interacting with you all! 8 Vector Production ~ Friends: YES | Public Requests: TBD | Commissions: NOBronyCAN 2016 Head of Publications - Email of PM for questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
long gone 8,929 July 9, 2013 Share July 9, 2013 Relax, your sentries are safe from me... I didn't bring my sticky bomb launcher. Good, another 'customer' to 'satisfy'! Welcome to City 17 MLP Forums. You have chosen or been chosen to relocate to one of our finest remaining urban living centers to join the largest forum on the Ponynet. I thought so much of City 17 MLP Forums that I elected to establish a greater presence here than another MLP forum I go to. I am proud to call City 17 MLP Forums my home away from home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through to parts unknown, welcome, to City 17 MLP Forums. It's friendlier here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirestormCAN 246 July 9, 2013 Author Share July 9, 2013 It sounds like you've done alot of vectoring, and your doing stuff for bronyCAN to? As a matter of fact, I have done an official vector: http://firestorm-can.deviantart.com/art/Apricity-s-Swirling-Maple-Mane-373442923 This was originally drawn by Nicole Gauss, one of our guests. I also made two other vectors from her. At the moment I'm accepting ads for the official convention guide book, and I'm in charge of putting the entire thing together. But I'll get more into that later. 1 Vector Production ~ Friends: YES | Public Requests: TBD | Commissions: NOBronyCAN 2016 Head of Publications - Email of PM for questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavelColt 22,881 July 9, 2013 Share July 9, 2013 Welcome aboard the hype train, friend. Always nice to see some true participators and organizers of the fanbase joining our growing slice of pony :3 The High Father tells us that our fair site is playing host to some BronyCAN folks and offering you guys a place to set up an outpost, so here's to hoping for a happy future collaboration and whatnot. I'm CD, one of the poor, sleep-deprived saps that looks after this site day and night, rain or shine <3 If you ever have any questions regarding this, that, the other thing or any sort of thing in between, be sure to check out the Site Questions and Tech Support section. There, you'll find a place to throw your questions, and two overlapping repositories for all sorts of crazy info; our site's FAQ, and the Resource Map, accordingly I hope you enjoy yourself. I won't be attending BronyCAN myself sadly, but I am going to BronyCon, for my first convention ever. But, as I've told Feld0, be sure to say hello to the moose(s)/meese for me.

---------------------- 1,645 July 9, 2013 Share July 9, 2013 I'm usually not a man of many words. Welcome to MLP Forums, it's cool to have you on board . I don't get to attend many cons, and saddly bronyCAN is one I cant attend. As with CD, I will be attending Bronycon for my 2nd time . I am also a vector artist, but I take that as a 2nd skill, my first being a techy wizard and hopefully getting into programming. Hope to see you arround ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
