20, though I still look so young when im in pubs or anything they ask me to leave before they even check my ID, then get all apologetic when they see im actually 20 years old (the legal age here is 19, not 21 like in the states).
As far as accomplishments go im still about at the level of a 17-18 year old, havent gotten anywhere since I finished H.S.

Thanks R_T .. but better yet, you should try Spain- As far as I know the legal drinking age there is 16! It's 18 over here in the UK as well. I went into a bar when I was in the states last year, but the owner couldn't even let me sit ar the bar, whether I had a pint in my hand or not! Gahhh!!

Over here it's heaven :] The drinking age is 15 or 16, dunno for sure, and the reason why I don't know is that noone cares I had my first beer when I was 7, and that was at the bowling >_>; They don't usually serve youngsters alcohol tho

and if u r only 15 or 16, then u could be as good or better then bomu in 3 years, its not too hard if u try and practice.

It's 19 here in B.C., 18 in alberta (they also get to start driving at 15).
16 is insane! Then again I guess when your allowed to drink that young it doesn't become taboo, and make it 'fun' just to drink for no reason other than it being illegal.
I havent driven much either. It's so lame right now you need to put these stupid signs in your car, and there are so many rules these days it's almost freakin impossible to learn nowadays (without violating some stupid rule), unless your parents or somone has the time (which none of mine do). I'll just get driving lessons as soon as I find a new job and can afford it, just enough so that I can pass the test.

yeah keith! i couldn't agree more about driving...bloody L plates are so annoying!!! ahhh!!! get rid of them i say...

alcohol I think official is 16 over here like cicarettes but those little punks running around with both of it alot earlier.
You get your driving licence at 18 (the first two year are trial)over here.
And you have to do a minimum of driving lessons before the testdrive (hope that is the word).
oh it is not allowed to drive around without the teacher and only in his cars.

im 18... drawing for years..then suddenly stop for years..and then started drawing recently a few montsh ago... i need more colorin practice....

i'm 20. bin drawing for ever. started out when i got introduced to Ranma 1/2.
remmber. drink when you're 18 (or whatever the age limit is in your country) and drive when you have a license. but DON't drink & drive. there - my moral for the day.

hehe Keith, waiting 3-6 months on your "L" really sucks. Once you get your "N", you get so much more freedom. Jus don't get too many speeding tickets or they bump you back down ...

I'm 22...sometimes I get frustrated when I look at art sites by people who are 17 or 18 and are amazing, but I also got screwed out of any art instruction until just last year and I'm finally starting to catch up.
