Who am I?

My name is Tim Dawson, I'm 24 and live in Sydney, New South Wales. I am a 3D animator in the games industry.

Dragon Tails began as part hobby, part grand plan and part attempt to find something to do with eight dragon characters so I wouldn't feel so silly about their origins.

My main interests have been the visual arts and computers, and through their amalgamation, the wide world of computer art. I've had a reasonably broad exposure, from life painting to film making to simple assembler programming, and have spent time in both a Visual Arts and Computer Science university degree. I'm a keen PC and console gamer, a shameless Sega fanboy, and I'm an anime enthusiast, all of which have had a great deal of creative influence on me, as well as making me a great big nerd.

I have always had a strong interest in dragons, from writing stories about them in English and drawing them on my workbooks to sculpting, rendering and using them as the basis for my final year highschool art project. It's somewhat ironic then that this site, the largest public project I've ever embarked upon, should be about young dragons, and derive its very premise from deconstructing and poking fun at the noble, wise and powerful attributes I've always enjoyed most when it comes to what a dragon represents. Whoops.

My ultimate goal is to one day create a TV show, make feature length movies, write novels and produce computer games, and not necessarily in that order. I'm planning to stand and shout "Bingo!" when I'm done.

My ultimate attack is to transform into the Mecha Bull Chicken and shoot visible laser beams out of my head.

I am (sometimes) active on my DeviantArt account.
