Interview: Fizz Man Industries
Chess set that was passed around the Internet. We spoke to the man himself about his work, his process and what he'd like to do in the future. To see more of his work please visit his official website - Fizz Man Industries .N-Europe: Can you please explain who you are and what you do for our readers please?
Fizz Man Industries: My name is Ben Howard, I'm from Cleveland, Ohio. I'm 25 years old (26 in six months) and I've got no allergies. I like to sculpt, and when I sit down to sculpt something new I invariably end up sculpting a video game character. I'm a video game character sculptor!
N-E: So what is your background? Are you an artist by trade or do you just do it as a hobby?
FMI: It's always been a hobby for me. I started sculpting terrible versions of simple characters like Shy Guys and Metools from Mega Man when I was 15 (almost 16!). They were really very badly made, and also badly painted. I don't think anyone really offered me encouragement at that point. I liked doing it though, so I kept at it. They got better and my friends and family started to encourage me, so I kept at it some more. I never took an art class outside of High School. I studied English and Psychology at University. My day job was managing a shop in the mall. I just found time here and there to work on sculptures.
