Hey there. My name is Seth Cloud. I live in the United States. I am 15 turning 16 in December and I want to pursue a career in animation. I have been doing animation for about 7 months now, minus a few breaks. I draw occasionally, but I have been drawing each day for three days. I want to get better at all types of drawing, so that I will be able to some day, be a professional animator.
Here are some of the locations of my animations:

As you can see.. Basically, I do stick people. But that is changing. I have three years to develop an artistic talent. Possible? I sure the hell hope so. I will work as hard as I can to become a professional animator. So, you guys think I can do it?
Sorry for the double post.
I have a question. It is about Anime. Yes, I know. You guys must hate hearing about it so much. I am currently reading the "So you want to be an Animator...." thread, so I know how you guys feel about it and that animators need to broaden their horizons and reach into other animation styles that they may hate.
I can do that. I will do whatever it takes. But what really got me going in animation is a series called "Spice and Wolf". It is really a beautiful story, animation, characters, and pretty much everything about it. I want to animate stuff like that. As I said before, I will do whatever it takes. And I just really need you guys to help me out, critique me, whatever. I just want to be able to do that.
I would really appreciate it. Thanks, guys!
I think there is still quite a lot of hope for you, 8 months in.... there are quite a few success stories of severe hppd passing after 1-2 years.
