PERSONAL
I love to throw and make throwing knives and I compete at most of the major tournaments. I was an Armor Crewman (19K M1 Abrams Tank) in the US ARMY. I was stationed in Friedberg Germany from 86-89 (WarDogs 4-67 3AD). I love to create things and draw stuff. I carry a sketchbook around all the time. I collect books and a few movie props. I like watching cartoons with my son.
I hope you enjoy my space. also check out my website J6Studios.com or my blog J6x2.com for more of my stuff.
