Ehh, why the heck not, haven't done one of these things since the start of facebook back in highschool, I think.

Naaah

 ➤ name: 
Alan, or A.J.  Really not sure why I was ever called AJ, given that it's not any shorter to say than Alan...  I like Alan more I think, but tend to respond better to AJ since it's what I'm used to.

➤ star sign : 
Really? Only... 13 questions, and this is one that is asked?
Gemini, if I must.

➤ average hours of sleep :
Danged if I know.  I can never figure out when exactly I fall asleep, I can't just lie down and go to sleep, and even once I am I drift in and out frequently throughout the night.  

➤ lucky number(s) :
Hmmm, dunno.  5 or 10?  Not sure if those are "lucky" or if I just like them cause they math easily.  

➤ last thing googled : 
Loooks like..... Mesoamerican murals.  Sounds about right.

➤ favorite fictional character(s) : 
Ahhhh I can never answer questions like this, cause I always get plagued by indecision and feel like I'll forget something.  This list would probably be as long- or longer! than a list of my favorite games, books, movies and tv shows.  I might have a better time answering the question about specific things.  I can't think of any all-time favorite characters that I've always really liked.

➤ current attire :
Well right now I'm wearing teal pajama pants with penguins on them and a "Ravenclaw" t-shirt, but this really could have varied a lot depending on when I decided to sit down and do this.  Other things I wore today was tan pants with a dark red collared shirt, and my Pizza Hut delivery outfit.

➤ when did you start this account? :
Hmmm, freshman year of college I think, a friend told me to make one when I was doing some invader zim doodles for them I think?

April 2, 2011, apparently, so I guessed a bit too early.  I remember now that it was when I was in one of my later dorms, silly me.

➤ number of watchers :
13, apparently?  Surprised I have any, since I'm not super consistent about putting stuff up on here, and tend to do it in small bursts when I realize I've made several things but haven't put them up yet.  Been doing even less recently cause most of my artistic effort the past year has gone into a tumblr ask blog I run

➤ what do you post? :
Moostly fanart, it seems!  I think most of the stuff I've drawn has been Pokemon or MLP, though I've done art for some animes and other cartoons I like in the past.  Sometimes I draw stuff based off of characters or other stuff from D&D games I've played.

➤ other blogs :
ask-terracotta-jade.tumblr.com…
mlp ask blog about an archaeologist I've been running for the past year.

➤ do you get a lot of comments :

Nah, not really.  But I don't really comment much myself, so I can't complain.  Think I get the most notes on things I draw for other people, or draw using sketches people send me, but that's mostly cause those end up being little mini-conversations where half of the "comments' are mine.

If I don't comment on your stuff or favorite, doesn't mean I don't like it.  I'm just really lazy when it comes to that sort of thing:  If I watch you, I like your art.  I just figure I don't need to favorite things cause instead of going to my favorites tab I can just go to your gallery and look at things there (and I do this occasionally!)

➤ why did you choose this username? :

Hahaha, I don't know, probably cause I was too lazy to come up with something else.  Probably should change it at some point, but to what?  Its a username I've had for random stuff since I first got on the internet, whenever the heck that was.  Otherwise its pretty much what it says on the tin: I like turtles and I like Gandalf.  Only my elementary (or middle schooled? not sure) self could tell you why I combined them into one unholy fusion.  Or why I dropped the "e" from turtle.  I can't imagine someone else already had "Turtlegandalf".  Maybe it was a character limit for the size of the username?


Huh this was really short for one of these wasn't it.  Don't they usually err on the long side?  Not that I'd prefer that, but a few more questions might have been nice, especially since a few of them didn't really have a lot of substance to them.

If my work is not quite what you're looking for, I reccomend taking a look at :iconsukir: SukiR 's commission page
Art Commission/Trade/Collab Information
Opening commissions! They will stay open unless I feel I'm being overwhelmed and have to close until I clear my list more. Those that are still expecting sketches will still be getting those as soon as possible.
Note me if you're interested about commissions, trades, or collaborating.
ALL PRICES IN USD
COMMISSIONS
Before commissioning me, please be aware I may take awhile finishing it. I have a part time job and when I get home my priority is plush work with art being worked on during breaks. I may finish your commission the same day or in a month, depending on how much time I have. Do not rush me or your commission will be canceled and no refund will be issued.
I only accept PayPal, no more points.
Sketches - $10
