Speaking of Yu-Gi-Oh, i used to run the tournaments in Toys r us.
Of course I let my younger brother get all the freebiess left over.
I was too old to really see the value, but my bro saw the perks of the being spoiled.
On topic, I personally been sketching since i was young.
Its all self taught, so I learned to copy imagines.
Also to memorize anatomy to make my own manga.
It helps take my mind off things.
