WHAT'S THERE TO FEAR?
Nathaniel Scramling, A.K.A. "Primogenitor34", or simply "Primo", is an avid illustrator and graphic designer based out of the wonderful world of Cleveland, Ohio. He is a graduate of the class of 2013 from Virginia Marti College of Art & Design (now North Coast College), with an Associate's Degree in Graphic Design.
Primo was able to develop a love for drawing at a very young age and soon committed his entire life to the craft. Thanks to daily practice, a steeled devotion, an unhealthy obsession with Pokemon, and a deal with the Devil to trade his soul for godly artistic talent, it soon paid off.
He currently draws characters and other concepts for a story that he's been developing over the years with the hopes of turning it into a video game, among other projects, including a graphic novel, tarot card set, and visual novel.
In the meantime, freelance commission work preoccupies his time... Primo has been able to work with many amazing customers, collaborating with names big, small, and up-and-coming, in both character illustration and design work for streamers, content creators and more. His biggest clients include the voice actress Lauren Landa, with whom he has worked on two commissions, and the highly popular anime Youtuber Lost Pause.
He was also able to acquire an internship for a short time at Go Media, a design cult based out of Cleveland, Ohio, where he assisted with their apparel mockup program, "Mockup Everything", volunteered at their annual creative festival, the "Weapons of Mass Creation" and, with the help of its President, William Beachy, created his logo, which he still proudly brandishes to this day.
Primo attends conventions on a semi-regular basis, at least before a plague was ever an issue, selling prints and other merch, as well as promoting his story and concept art in the hopes of raising interest in it. And yes, he also cosplays.
As of July 7, 2024, he is now happily married to his loving and devoted wife, who is also his biggest cheerleader, his loudest fan of the story and world he's created, and his proud assistant now helping at his art tables, along with her service dog, Hana.
When he's not drawing (which is not very often), Primo is most likely playing FPS or fighting games, sorting through his vast collection of art books, drowning in mead, watching anime, or blasting his ears off with metal music.
