Nicholas Caballero

Paraguayan/American Artist, Video Game/Animation Enthusiast, Technologist

Hi, I'm Nicholas Caballero! Though you can call me Nick C., or just Nick. I like to draw cartoons/anime and generally enjoy various things such as animated shows/movies, enjoy video games, technology, obscure stuff, and more!

I do Art and Graphic Design work

Art featured from 2022 and 2023

I draw things! I tend to draw lots of fan art and occasional original content, and also somewhat do occasional graphic design. But here, it's mostly art.

Hey there! My name is Nicholas Caballero, but for short you can refer me as Nick C. (call me Nicky and I will obliterate you)I'm a American/Paraguayan self-taught artist that's currently practicing and improving. Alongside that I generally enjoy video games, animation (in both cartoons and anime), technology, occasionally being funny and archiving rare content.Many of my interests include stuff like:
- Nintendo (Mario, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Super Smash Bros. and more)
- Sega (Sonic, Persona, Puyo Puyo, 90s Sega titles and a lot more)
- Namco (Generally 80s-90s Namco, including Pac-Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, and many other games)
- Puzzle games (Bejeweled, Tetris, Puyo Puyo (again), and more)
- Animated media (such as SpongeBob, Studio Trigger anime, Animaniacs and etc.)
- Tech stuff (like researching system OSes, such as Windows and iOS, and more)
- Enjoying generally obscure content (such as Rocket Knight Adventures, Ristar, Gunstar Heroes, and much more)
- I have a soft spot for cheesy or bad video game box arts

What I Do

Here's a bit of things to expect on my profiles and stuff, most of which happen specifically on Twitter (X):- Occasional suggestive (PG-13) content notice: A few things I occasionally bring up may contain suggestive content, however I will never bring up NSFW on my timeline. I limit the amount I bring up that kind of stuff by a big amount.
- Retweet heavy! On some occasions I may retweet a large amount of tweets at once.
- A ton of likes of mines on your timeline
- Tweets or retweets of the interests I have (May contain spoilers for content listed!)
- Art stuff, of course (I try to get at least one art out every week!)
- Occasional shitposts/memes (now infrequently)
-- Shitposts examples from 2017-2018
-- Shitposts examples from 2019 and more
- Occasional serious things, but I try to limit myself of that on my profile.I may occasionally bump some of my older tweets through self-retweets!On other places:
- I co-run the Animaniacs Wiki Twitter/X account with my friend Drew D. and others, where we post interesting things about Warner Bros.' Animaniacs.
- My Instagram account is somewhat my art only account! I occasionally post WIPs in my stories here, so check that out if you're interested.
- My Threads account acts as an alternative to my Twitter/X space, so it naturally follows the same style as that.
- My YouTube channel is where I post normal speed versions of my Procreate/Procreate Pocket timelapses.
- My "stuff" YouTube channel is moreso a place for experimental stuff and more. Game OSTs, shitposts, archival dumps and more.
- My Newgrounds account is where I post exclusively art, sort of like Instagram.- I contribute to a few FANDOM wikis, however I have administration status in the following wikis:

I'm a variety artist of different kinds! I draw various different art styles in effort to learn and improve so I can work on my own personal style. On occasions I also do 3D art as well! I try to get a new post out on a weekly schedule on Twitter/X, Instagram, Newgrounds and Threads, so look forward to the stuff I got!Clicking on the images will open the original source tweets/posts on Twitter/X!

MY POLICY WITH USING MY ART

- to re-upload on your pages or profiles (I can give you permission if you DM me on any of the mentioned platforms above)

Requests/Commissions

I don't do commissions! I'm not ready to start with commissions yet, but I am planning to do it in the future! Just trying to rack up on more art practice until I'm really ready.
Twitter (X) mutuals, I do art trades! Whenever you want to, my DMs are open on Twitter (X) or Discord. I'll get back to you when I can.

Extra Stuff

Here's a list of people I really like on social media!!

I've replaced the underscores (_) with - due to Carrd having an italic text code interfering with the underscore symbol. They're not like this on Twitter (X)! Just replace the -s with an underscore if you try to search them up.Shane realShanes
