Eugenia, 30 y.o. from Russia. I started drawing when I was 7, after I first saw an episode of Sailor Moon :D I fell in love with anime and wanted to be an "animator" and my general love for East Asia grew big. Anime tied me with a few friends, and our small company created a few "universes", that I drew (and still drawing) a lot of art of. Mom sent me to art school and I spent a whooping 1 day there!
In my teen years I found out that anime is based on manga, so I wished to become a mangaka, but then I never went past drawing 1 page.
After school I went to study in uni in China and basically stopped drawing for 8 years, until I started again with the nudge from my husband. In 2016 I started a 1page1day challenge and in the same year we made our first one-shot comic to participate in Shounen Jump contest, as a duo of my husband Darkstrong as a writer and me as an artist. After that we made 3 short stories, making 1 ongoing and have plans for a dozen more stories.
