Hello! I'm Fishfghtrs. I commonly go by Fish or CJ. I'm a US based illustrator who primarily focuses on character design, and am currently in my final year of studying at Northern Michigan University. I love worldbuilding and brainstorming ideas for characters and their worlds.I have always had a knack for drawing things I saw on TV or from video games. My favorite past times include video games and immersing myself within their worlds, and of course drawing. I also love dragons, the color red, and my cat Panther (I am a proud cat parent). In 2024, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Japan for 9 months.
