Yo, I'm Nyctaeus or Nyx for short. I make ships. Shiny ships. For shiny projects... And sometimes for standard ones too.

About Me

  • I'm freelance graphic designer with professional artistic education, but I still produce very ugly things from time to time.
  • I live somewhere in central Poland and I'm slavic by ethnicity.
  • I like joking about my country much more, then I like Poland itself.
  • I don't speak english, but I speak polgrish instead. Polgrish is my custom language consisted of english vocabulary with polish sentence syntax.
    • Of course I often misspell english words too.
  • I love beer, but hate vodka. So I'm rather poor slav.
  • I don't think that Skyrim is the best RPG in the world.
  • I think UEF should conquer the GTVA.
  • I hate winter.
  • I love cats.
  • I think Bryan See developed The Search for Bosch.
  • I'm zen buddhist.
  • I joke a lot but also I have a bad sense of humor.
  • I'm lazy. Lots of released ships doesn't change a thing.
  • I copy ideas for personal page from Droid803.
