Introduction thread for new forum members

Hello everyone!

I’m Jiskpirate, Dutch 17 year old and was accepted on the 2nd of August, only now I got myself down to write a fine little introduction for this forum. I’m a solo developer working on various projects (which probably will be a continuing project never to be finished, hehe) including Hogwarts [Copyright issues], Diagon Alley [Yay, copyright issues], some Napoleonic vessels and the Great Western Railway. Yup, I like to make highly detailed locomotive models which are often a pain in the ***.

Prepare for a little biography for those interested :wink:

I started building somewhere at the start of 2015 after 3 years being a Post-Captain in one of the first Naval groups of Roblox. My first attempt in studio was with the massive castle of my favorite books and movies. The set design by Stuart Craig has always inspired me in rebuilding the beautiful Gothic architectural masterpieces to relive Hogwarts in her fine glory of the first movie (Yes, the castle changes literally every movie). However, since my building skills were undeveloped it was a messy structure with a lot of small gaps here and there. I got rid of it after a year and rebuild sections of the castle. When I got the whole exterior finished some sections were so outdated I threw it all away and started from scratch again. That’s why this project is taking a bit long. After 2 years I have finally reached the building standard I wanted and by so continued working on the projects on a slow pace. Hogwarts is far beyond finished, but I do have a lovely showcase where I show my finished locomotives. Some British friends of mine are willing to script some of them and I am more than happy to see them moving down the line in the distant future. My goal is to learn how to use blender and textures and by so making detailed yet less demanding models for the Roblox community.

I hope to add a valuable contribution to this forum. I’m mostly active on twitter so for recent updates go to @jiskodisco

Thanks again for letting me be a part of this.

Regards,
Jisk

Hey everyone! My name is BASEKILL and it has been a delight to be invited to the DevForum.

I am a game designer who is currently working with the team at DoubleJGames to create Game Dev Life. It is rare that a dedicated game designer is around on Roblox (Never seen one anyways) so it is a joy to be one of the first! I also do some GFX, Marketing and Monetization work. I hope that I can learn new things, especially Roblox related game design to help improve my skills.
You can also contact me on twitter @BasekillRBLX
Thank you!

Hi, I am also one of the new additions to the developer forums.

I am ReindeerIce, & I have been on ROBLOX since 2011. I have been enjoying building for several years now & currently being part of the developer forums has been such a blessing. I am excited to meet the fellow developers & get involved. I build a variety of things, homestores, maps, etc. My building style is a modern sleek finish.
Also, one more thing, thank you to my great friend Astraily for nominating & supporting me.

Thank you!

You know that kid that fakes being sick on the first day of school to avoid the awkward “tell us your name and one interesting fact about yourself” uhh, yup. That’s me. This is long overdue, but here goes anyway…

I’m Emma. I’m an artist in the Roblox community and have been for close to a year now. (I would say March of this year was when it started to take off though) I’m also a Community Manager for Pokemon Brick Bronze.

Never did I ever think that I would end up here, but one of Lilly’s tweets stuck out to me and inspired me to try out, and the rest is history. (The one where she said that art is a form of development too) Sadly from my experience not everyone feels the same way, but nonetheless I’m honoured to be here and looking forward to soaking up as much knowledge as I can.

I’ve had the pleasure of drawing some cool people in the community, and I’ve created some badges and game icons/logos as well. (For PBB, Epic Minigames and Fast Food Tycoon)

I compiled a list of all of my art if anyone wants to check it out: https://twitter.com/i/moments/903653544640876545

Thanks for having me! :slight_smile:
