Halfshell Hero (September 6, 1981 - ) currently resides in Kansas City, Kansas and hoping to become a celebrity.
Halfshell (also known as Halfshell Hero, Sabaka, and Sabaka'Zlo) is a furry artist who joined the fandom in 2003, after leaving the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom the same year. While surfing, he stumbled on anthropomorphic art and was instantly hooked. He began to submit his own art and picking up requests and was welcomed into the community. Along the way, he has chatted with individuals from Jaimetud Otter to meeting Sir Kain. Halfshell attended his first furry convention at AnthroCon 2005 with Sir Kain. Halfshell has met many furs online. After the trip to the con, Halfshell got his first Post Con Depression.
Fursona edit
Sabaka (Zlo) is Halfshell's first original character. Sabaka, the Russian meaning for dog or wolf; Zllo, the Russian meaning "demon", "evil", "devil". The idea for the character was spawned when Halfshell and a local kid were creating ideas for comicbook characters. Sabaka' Zlo is currently being used for IronClaw role-playing game, and is Halfshell's current fursuit.
