germanname's picture
I'm a huge fan of Sonic the Hedgehog. The interest started in July 2001, when I was 11. I did not draw Sonic until I was 12. Over the past 5 years, all of my Sonic drawings grew more and more sophisticated.

If you're asking me why I started my interest in Sonic, it had a few elements. I did not have a Sega Genesis until October 2003, and this was back in July 2001 (read above). I wanted to play this Wheel of Fortune (I flippin' love that show) game for the Genesis, even though now it doesn't look any more sophisticated than the new Computer stuff to me. I go to my cousin, and he gives me his Genesis for a while. He also gives me his game collection for the Genesis. Two of the games were Sonic 2, and Sonic & Knuckles. I really liked them. That was when my interest, soon to become a huge love, began.

For those who wonder why I named myself germanname, it's because my last name is German. Since its spelled GENAME, many pronounced it juh-name, but it's actually pronounced gah-name under German standards. My ancestors arrived at the US shortly after the Civil War ended, and I have never been outside the US. My online name actually was the result of an accident. I received this writing award in 2003, and not only my name was misprounced, it was spelled GERNAME. In 2005, I remembered that accident and also learned my last name was German (a GErman NAME). It was originnaly spelled with one N, but many sites already had a germaname user, so I added another N. If germanname was also taken on a site (which happened when I registered for YouTube), I added my birth year of 1990 at the end of it. The rest is history.

It's been quite a while since I last submitted anything here, the site where I made my internet debut. From now on, I'm submitting to my DeviantArt account, but if I find a submission to be special, it will be posted here.

I let everyone at DA know, and I'll let FAC know this. I'm closing requests down as I'm receiving a large number of requests. They will be open again after I'm finished with the requests I received up to this point.

In regard to FAC members, requests are:
dth1971: Paw requests (these are also for someone at DA)

Y49670Here is a history of the SCSD wheels
1975 Trial Hower: Rainbow
1975 first permanent hour: The gold big wheel
1977: gold walls become red
1979 pink pricedown $ and the green sections are added to the wheel, in 1981 two dots are added for contestants to stand on
1986: the superball $ replace the original ones inn 1994 the dots are replaced by the red carpet from the davidson version, in 2001 the carpet recieves a gold trim and a G-T asterisk over by the scoreboard
2008 version 1: a purple version of the 1981 wheel but with 2 raised silver $ and the scoreboard is now actually on the wheel instead of on a post with 5 and 15 changing (the actual # not the section) from blue to green
2008 version 2: basically an orange version of the spininig pannel wall of the turntable, the carpet now has orange squares going across the outside border and the asterisk has become orange with another asterisk being added in front of the wheel itself recently.

germannameIt's still gonna be a while before I do requests again, and doing the original Price is Right wheel from 1975 will be tough, unless I were to draw it. Sorry.

germanname<chuckles> I'm sorry if I had you go through all that (I was pretty excited), but it's fantastic work! She looks far more gorgeous that she would have if you didn't wait to finish it. Also good luck in the skateboarding contest for the umpteenth time. :)

Y49670About my computer it was the power supply that gave out so when I get a new unit my dad is going to put my hardrive in the new unit since power supplies are to expensive to replace.

Y49670It's an entire website of it's own www.golden-road.net. I talked to Carlos known as temptation1979ga1 and he is still obseving to why got banned and according to the homepage I am still banned I am X54321 there so once and If I get back I will add you to my buddylist if you sign up. When Carlos gives me an explanation for my rude dismissal. You will have to start at the lowest rank which is outside in line and work your way up to where I am which is taking a bounus spin. If I find out what's going on from Carlos he'll talk to Marc the site admin, and try to de-ban me.

germannameI understand that meanings can be lost. Now I'm not saying that you never read the rules, but just try to make sure you follow them next time. It's real easy to get lost with doing things, but as long as you're respectful, which I'm certain you are, chances are they'll listen to you and understand. I'm glad they got you back.

Now, what's the name of the group? Is it on Yahoo Groups? I gotta try and check that out sometime.
