My name is Nikki, I'm a 23 year old emo trans girl from New Jersey. Still pre-transition at the moment. My trade is digital art and graphic design, specializing in band shirt designs, portraits, logos, illustrations, and pixel art. I'm a huge fan of emo subculture and music -- my favorite bands are Silverstein, Armor For Sleep, Hawthorne Heights, Finch, and My Chemical Romance. I'm also a big follower of professional motor racing, and I do a lot of work in the sim-racing community as well. I'm an enthusiast of the classic Mega Man games. You may recognize me from my Make a Good Mega Man Level 2 entry, "City Under Siege". I'm an avid writer, and I journal pretty frequently. I also love meeting new people!! I'm on the autism spectrum, though, so please be patient with me. A lot of my artwork looks and feels very gritty and messy. My style of graphic design is heavily influenced by grunge design, mixed with what I find appealing in design. I use a lot of dirty textures, corroded edges and typefaces, sketchy linework, and a lot of paint splatter. Generally speaking, what I do is the kind of stuff you might find on band tees or album artwork. If you read this and want to commission me, most of my business is done through Instagram.
