*hugs it lovingly*

Erm, anyway...

Hey! I'm Lauren, though most of you probably know me as Slewinca (on YouTube, but also on Myspace, Care2, Youthnoise...it goes on -_-). I've loved to draw since I was a toddler ^^ (drawing Lamb Chop...CONSTANTLY ^_^) My favorite things to draw with are pencils. I don't have a Tablet...or Photoshop TT_TT But I do the best I can with what I've got...deploying Microsoft Picture It 7.0 and Paint when needed ^_^'

I mainly do fanart; mostly Kingdom Hearts (KH2 = my favorite game EVER XD), but I've started drawing some Death Note characters, too. I wouldn't say I'm the best at drawing...in fact, most of my early fanart is kind of embarrassing -_-'
(if I decide to post any of my early work, it'll be in the "scraps" section)
But, with the right motivation, I think I can do pretty well ^_^
I also write fanfics, but I'm not sure whether I'll post them here or not.

Within Kingdom Hearts, my favorite character to draw is Axel; he was the first human I ever drew in any seriousness, and drawing him just comes naturally to me now. I tend to draw him with Roxas, though Roxas isn't quite as fun to draw...

...because I love AkuRoku XD

Not just as yaoi though, mind you; I've loved them together ever since I played the first part of KH2. Something about those final scenes of them together made me really believe in their friendship. I NEVER thought that they would actually have a following. So when I found the AkuRoku group page here nearly 2 years ago...I was in heaven XD
And as you can see here, I still have a fondness for that very group (great for getting my AkuRoku fix every once in a while ;D) ^^

In case you're wondering about my username here, it's one that I came up when I combined Axel and Roxas' Organization titles: The Flurry of Dancing Flames, and The Key of Destiny. It subtly references Kingdom Hearts 2, alludes to Axel and Roxas' friendship and (possible) love...and is pretty at the same time XD

My favorite characters in Death Note are L (of course ), Mello, Matt, and...Near.
(*gasp from the audience* ok, I don't really, REALLY like him, I just like him...he's fourth on my scale, as you can see here...and I saw the anime first, not the manga, so that's probably why I don't hold a grudge against him, based on what I've heard...)

Also, I'm an animal rights activist, who's been vegetarian for 4 years

OK! Enough rambling! >_<
I've been meaning to get an account here, mostly debating it with myself...but now that I've got one, hopefully it will serve as some motivation for me to work on/improve on my drawing ^_^

Bye for now! ^^

Ah, the AkuRoku lovins XD


PETA2!!
