How long have you been on DeviantArt?
8 years

What does your username mean?
It's just my initials. I created this account before I started to regularly use the moniker "Geocorn." (Geocorn is a portmanteau of my first name and my surname.)

Describe yourself in three words.
Intelligent, caring, dorky

Are you left or right handed?
Right

What was your first deviation?

What is your favourite type of art to create?
Papercraft

If you could instantly master a different art style, what would it be?
I'd love to be able to draw. As you can see from my gallery, the few times I've tried were awful. But more importantly, I'd love to gain mastery over the 3D modeling and papercrafting that I already do(the two go pretty hand-in-hand).

What was your first favourite?
(I think this is somebody I used to be friends with in real life?)

What type of art do you tend to favourite the most?
Probably fanart. I know that answer annoys a lot of artists on here but it's my honest answer. It's more likely for something related to franchises I like to come in my feed. And I'm counting papercraft and cosplay as fanart if they're related to a franchise.

Who is your all-time favourite deviant artist?
How do I even answer this? There are so many artists I love on this site. If I have to pick just one though, I have to say BettyPimm.

If you could meet anyone on DeviantArt in person, who would it be?
Another question where I have to make a singular choice? There are so many people I've gotten close to through this website. I'll pick at random of the list of people who mean so much to me and say LW-Lucy

How has a fellow deviant impacted your life?
There are a lot of people who have helped me get through turbulent times in my life. And I feel the need to specifically identify them.

What are your preferred tools to create art?
Depends. For papercrafting, I try using Blender but I'm not very good with it, so I usually revert to my ten year old copy of trueSpace (before Microsoft bought it). Then I often use GIMP for texture work. For the "unfolding" I use Pepakura Designer. I've used a whole variety of programs for ripping models from videogames, but they always require being edited in Blender first. Accutrans comes in very handy for converting 3D file types. 

What is the most inspirational place for you to create art?
I tend to do it at home. I've occasionally done work in my office when I used to have one. (Off the clock of course, I didn't do it on company time!)

What is your favourite DeviantArt memory?
Well I won a few kiribans on here, but the first one that the person actually gave me the prize was at the time my best friend on this website, ChaosComix. When I moved last year, one of the first things I did (after like, moving all the heavy furniture and stuff) was to put my prize from her in frames and display them in my livingroom. (I'll look later to put thumbnails of my prize, as well as the other piece that she sent me in addition to my prize because she's so awesome like that.)
