Today we’d like to introduce you to Ace Bundy.
Hi Ace, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I’ve been drawing for almost 20 years, now. From a 6 year old drawing Sonic characters on poster boards, to a 25 year old freelancer and character designer. I got very far, but there’s still so much I want to branch out and do!
Throughout practicing my 10,000 hours, I learned how to toy with color, shape, silhouette, and ultimately, I learned how to gather inspiration from the world around me. And make it mine.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
A lot of struggles came my way. Money was a huge one, parental support was another. The biggest obstacle that still affects me to this day is both imposter syndrome, and the fact I’m not the machine I used to be when it came to creating art and animatics.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I specialize in alternative characters and fashion designs. I also love to redesign popular characters in my own way, usually for more visibility for those in my circles. I’m proud of the brand I have made for myself. 100 style variations later, I’m still discovering more and more of myself to pour into my art.
I’m proud of the fact I have the opportunity to make characters for stories and background game art. It’s so honorable to be sought out personally for someone’s project, someone’s BABY.
I think what sets me apart from others is the way I cope with my BPD and BP1 through my characters. Through style, I get to become my own creation. And through some sort of inner energy recycling, it becomes easier to draw and flesh out these characters I love so much, just by being them for a bit.
Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
Being remembered by others and celebrated for existing makes me feel like I’m floating.. It’s great when I’m reminded I dont have to do something great to be appreciated. I also like being able to show my style that I’ve worked on for years to “perfect”, and getting credit for that growth.
