So I've been tagged by one of my longtime DA friends so of course I had to respond.

1. You must post these rules (very, VERY Important )
2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and create ten new questions for the people you tag to answer.
3. You have to choose 10 people to tag and post their icons on your journal.
4. Go to their pages and tell them you have tagged her/him.
5. No crap in the tagging section about "you are tagged if you're reading this."


1. Why do you post your work online?
-B/c I'm an attention whore and I need any kind of affirmation and reinforcement...positive or negative!!!!   

Seriously...I was initially afraid to post my stuff here on DA b/c 1.) I was worried that everyone would think that I'm some sort of perverted weirdo with my many drawings featuring semi-muscular cyborg women and 2.) seeing all of the amazing art here on DA knowing that my stuff wasn't anywhere near as good.

That, and I'm an attention whore.

2. Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft?
-Ol' Skool Nintendo...like back in the Super NES/NES 8-bit systems.  Modern day Wii...meh.   Both Sony and Microsoft are pretty cool too.

3. DC, Marvel, or something else?
-I am actually an ol' skool Image fan cira 1993-2000.  While I started as a huge X-Men fan, I jumped ship to Image when stuff like WildCATS, Cyber Force, Youngblood, Stormwatch, Bloodstrike, Brigade, and several other titles took off.

4. Live action or animation?
-Depends.  You can do more with animation action-wise, but sometimes there's nothing like a real person conveying actual emotion on the screen.

5. What's the one thing you would attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?
-Be a talented artist/writer.  All of my stories that I write would be in graphic novel form and I would have series of stories featuring my OCs and their adventures!!!!

6. "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." What comes to mind when you read that quote?
-Hamlet...my favorite Shakespeare play.  That's where that line comes from.

7. Do you have a Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr or other social media account?
-I have active Facebook (Marcus Wayne James) and Twitter (@Mr_Marcus_81) accounts...hit me up!  I don't have a Tumblr, and I've still got my old Myspace page out there...somewhere.   I also have a page on the social network that my church has called "The City".  And of course...I've got DA!!!!

8. Traditional art or digital art?
-Sorry...gotta go with digital.  It's just easier on the old eyes.  As for my own work, it starts as traditional with the penciling, then it's scanned and inked/colored digitally.

9. City or country?
-I'm a country boy at heart, but gotta go with the city.

10. If you could choose any past era to live in other than now or in the future, which would you choose?
-The 70's!!!  I wanna go back, rock a huge fro with some killer sideburns, wear butterfly collared shirts, bell bottoms, and platformed shoes, and boogie down to some groovy funk music in the disco!!!  Can you dig it, baby?!!?

My Turn:

1. What is your favorite genre of music?  List your favorite musician/band and your favorite song of said genre?

2. Comics: do you prefer decent to sub par art with a great story or great visual art with a lackluster story?

3. Do you like sports?  If so, what's your favorite sport, team, and player?

4. Who is your favorite comic book or video game character of all time?

5. Who are some of your favorite artists here on DA, professional or non-pro aspiring artists in any medium?  List about 5 of their avatars in your response, please.

6. If you could have any metahuman/superhuman power or ability, what would it be and why?  Would you use your powers for good or evil purposes?

7. Would you rather for your heat to stop working the midst of a harsh cold Winter or for your AC to go out in the dead middle of a desert-like Summer?

8. What is the most alluring/attractive feature of the opposite sex to you...OTHER THAN BOOBS, BOOTY, OR GENITALIA...ya filthy perverts?

9. Indulge me...which of my OC's is your favorite and why?  And could you please elaborate a little more than just "I think she's a cool character!" or "She's hot!"  I know that my characters are attractive and well-proportioned...I designed them that way!  I'm looking for deeper reasons!

10.  Indulge me one more time... and are my most faved deviations.  It's obvious that there's a common, yet VERY popular theme that all three share but I've got plenty of bootylicious, boobie-licious, and nudity in my gallery...so what makes these three so great in comparison to some of my other pieces like that I put so much more detail and effort into?  Nothing against my most popular pieces, but I personally feel that I have better pieces than those?  Can anyone elaborate?

My victims:

or whoever that feels like answering these and posting their own questions!
