Default Interview with Dave Rapoza

Guys!

This is it, as the new writer for the pad I thought I could begin with something special.
I could convince Dave Rapoza to allow me to interview him.

Check out his blog
http://daverapoza.blogspot.com/

He is a fulltime freelance artist. Hes never attented any artschool and has some really cool stuff going on...

So here is the thing:

What do you want do know?

Give me some questions! This is your chance to ask him stuff, that you want to know! Ill try to incorporate as much as I can from your feedback to this thread!

Ill be asking him around 15 questions, so dont belive that I can ask him everything...

Until then thumbs up and draw!!!!!!

Q:
You seem to give so much back to the community, do you find that it is a self-serving feat? I seem to remember that you said that "any exposure is promotion, contests, putting your art everywhere it can be seen, helping others..." Do you actually get more work for helping others improve?

That's okay, I understand. I hadn't had the possibility to be here for a couple of weeks, otherwise I would have posted a question before yesterday.
Looking forward to the result of the interview :)

does anyone have any requests for any artists they'd like to see interviewed, we've previously had a few pro's who we've managed to interview but we dried up.....we can't promise that the artists you request will grant us the time to interview them but we'll try.

Great interview, thanks for making it!

I'd definiterly love to see an interview with Ryan Meinerding (http://www.boyrobot.com/) if not with James Luke (http://belderes.blogspot.com/) or Emrah Elmasli(http://www.partycule.com/) or Josh Kao (http://josh-kao.blogspot.com/) or Matt Kohr (http://www.mattkohr.com/index.html) or Thomas Scholes (http://crayonboxofdoom.blogspot.com/) or Carlo Arellano (http://chainsawart.blogspot.com/) to name a few.

I know it wont be possible to interview all of them but those artists really do have a lot of potential and are simply amazing.

Sorry for being such a type nerd, but that justified text on CG-Pads article sites is awful. ;) Can you align it to the left? Would be better - a lot. ;)
