@toyotami kun:

Totally! I hate those boring assignments that just kill your creativity and imagination! =_=
Oh poor you! It'll be okay soon, but I can tell how annoying it would be... At least, you're raring to draw and colour! At least its not artists block. You'll be ready to go when your wrist gets better^^ Adn I'll be here waiting for your awesome artworks! Have a very Merry Christmas, and I'll talk to you tomorrow! *hugs*

@MangaKid:

yeah assignments is what makes realism projects boring, you can't really do what you want!
I thought it was getting better, but it's on and off....T_T

@toyotami kun:

Yeah, i agree^^ I need to do more practicing with landscapes! Ya, they are especially hard to do if you have to draw it for a project or something! >_< Its too boring that way xP

Good to hear! I'm happy your hand is getting better^^ :D

@MangaKid:

yes they are important since in comics there are a lot of stuff like that. I also kind of like the struture of buildings and landscapes are pretty. I would only draw those for myself, It's something assigned to me I don't think I can have fun with it.

lol Pencil Fight! XD My hand is a little better and I'm also in the sketching mood! but I want to color more then I do sketching, but not yet! ^_^

@toyotami kun:

Lol ah it does look like that, since 'pencil' and 'right' are next to each other LOL XD
Oh interesting! I don't think I like doing too many drawings of still objects like that, but you're right... they are SO important in fan comic settings! I really can't wait to see your doushinji :D
OK! I will keep working, I just seem to be doing better with pencil since I'm really getting into the 'rhythm' of sketching xP I did two more sketched today and I like how I can control my pencil better then my markers xD But I'll keep trying and practicing! :D

@MangaKid:

lol I thought you typed "Pencil Fight" I would actually like to draw buildings and some landscaps since I've never done that before! It's like a chanllenge for me, then I'd like to mix that with other stuff to mix it up more.
Also I would like to get some setting ideas for the story that involves Andres.

Ah don't let those marker beat you! Try your best!!!

@toyotami kun:

Oh yeah, thats right! You'd be able to see so many new things if you travel, and I bet you'd get lots of story ideas too :D I bet you'd be a great artist, whatever you draw^^ I think realistic drawings can get boring when they're something like a building or landscape xP but I think they're really rewarding when you sketch something you love. I'm sorta in a pencil fix right now, I'm having trouble with my markers Dx

@MangaKid:

now it's okay I don't mind, I just may not know to how to reply, but I will! I would like to travel more and explore more to, mainly to get some inspiration for drawing real life since I need to practice it more! XD

@toyotami kun:

Cool! My family only travels to Indiana and thats it though... I've also gone around some parts in Canada, but not anywhere else. I can't tell if I like to travel or not. I like to explore though! :D
Oh sorry, I'm realizing I've been writing super long comments to you right now >_< Sorry!

@MangaKid:

oh I see, I thought you had Family there! I know a lot of people that travel pretty far to visit their families, oh you're really close to the US. that pretty cool! lol I have a really bad sense of direction always! lol at least you get to travel, the only place that I went to was St. Louis which was 3 hours away from where I am. It was fun though!

@toyotami kun:

No we don't have family there, but we have lots of friends. And each year, my family either travels down to join a big get-together with people around the world who celebrate Easter (and we see our friends). I also go to a youth camp down there^^
Ontario is right above Pennsylvania and Ohio area. Buffalo is close by too. I live near Toronto, our province's capital. Look it up on google maps... thats what I had to do to find Kansas >_< I'm bad at geography! lol

@MangaKid:

lol I don't know where that is! yeah I live in Kansas, very close to Missouri! XD it just 10 mintues to get there! XD
Do you have family there? that cools if you do! You get to explore a little!

@toyotami kun:

Yeah! I live in Ontario :) Close to the USA border. Coool! Kansas :D where Dorthy from the wizard of Oz lived! lol you do live far away from me... I don't think I've been to Kansas before, but we do travel to Jeffersonville Indiana each year, and thats closer to you. :D

@MangaKid:

lol so true! Oh you live in Canada? I''m from Kansas! XD telling you since you told me! wow that's pretty far! it was kind of snowing here, but it stopped now! XD

@toyotami kun:

Yeah I agree... rain isn't good in the winter and the weather man knows nothing LOL jk I live in Canada, so we're supposed to be having colder weather, but its just warm instead Dx Oh well... hopefully it'll get colder soon!

@MangaKid:

lol but what they was is stuff! XD jk, The whether guy siad it might snow for christmas over here, but it's just raining and it might turn to ice, which is not good! XD

@toyotami kun:

Its cold where I live too, but its been raining over the past weekend :( I SOOO wish that I get a white Christmas this year Dx
Aww thats alright, just give your family all your love^^

@MangaKid:

lol it's cold over here, and we're expecting some snow, not sure when though since it's just raining!

That's nice! I wish I could of got some stuff for my family, but money is really tight right now.

@toyotami kun:

Lol you're right >3< I'm just dreaming of ice right now, since I want to go skating XD Its too warm though DX
Thanks! Maybe my sis will be my friend again when she sees that I bought her a horse teddy for Christmas lol (she loves horses) :)

@MangaKid:

lol ice rink, then everyone will be slipping everywhere! XD

yeah it took a while for both of us to get along, but everythings cool now. It also didn't help that we are also stubborn! XD I hope you and your sister get along too!

@toyotami kun:

WOAH!! Thats cold! Hey you could make an ice rink down there lol just kidding XD I like the cold, but not when I'm inside! The cold weather deserves to stay outside where it belongs haha!
Yes, that's exactly what my sister is like right now! her attitude has changed and I was upset about it at first. But then I got frustrated a bit... and we're both stubborn so that doesn't help when we need to try and get along xP I'm glad to hear you're sister and you are doing fine again^^

@MangaKid:

it is pretty cold, my brother spilled water down there and forgot to clean it up, the spill froze and was like that till spring. I though It was pretty funny! XD
My sister sometimes get like too, I get annoyed by her sudden attitude change, but she's fine now!

@toyotami kun:

Woah your basement sounds pretty cold! A portable scanner would be a great idea! and I don't like when printers run out of ink >_< For one, I have to wait to print something till you get ink. For two, I have to GO and get the ink >_< For three, my family always is shocked that the ink disappears so fast so they're interrogating everyone about who used the most ink! XD
Haha my sister used to never care what I did with her things and vice versa. But now that she's in highschool, she's not being friendly to me :( I figured it was cuz she was nervous about going to a new school and now she's got a bit of an ego xP But she's still my good sister! and for now, I can use her camera if i take extra special care of it XD Thats funny about your sister!!

@MangaKid:

my scanner is also a printer, but right now it has no ink. I got some alst year, but I frooze in the basement, so I haven't bought any since then. I kind was to get a portable scanner though.
Ah your sister doesn't want to share? XD my sister hogs my camera and it's not even hers! XD

@toyotami kun:

Ah my scanner broke almost immediately but I don't think my family really noticed since we rarely used it so it wasn't a big deal. We have it in our basement too. Its also a printer and copier by the way (besides, we got it in a package with our laptop. And my camera just stopped working one day :( Its old though, and I got it from a friend who didn't use it anymore. Lol my sister sort of minds when I use her camera since she's not been in a sharing mood recently. But she's being ok and allowing me to use it sometimes >3<

I don't know if I'd be able to learn all those things! I had so much trouble just making on ecard online today haha!

@MangaKid:

oh no it's fine! I use to have to use my teacher's scanner cause I didn't have. I was able to buy one about 2 or 3 years ago? I'm just afraid that it might break since I have it in the basement in the cold.
lol how did you break both the scanner and the camera? It's fine though! as long as your sister doesn't mind!

I still can't figure out GIMP and Manga Studio is pretty hard to figure out, but I'm working on it! XD

@toyotami kun:

Me too! I sort of had no idea how to use GIMP unless I just wanted to edit a photo. And one thing I need if a new scanner as well! My old scanner broke a long time ago and my family has never really felt like getting a new one. But now that I'm doing more art, I need one! And my camera broke so i've having to go the inconvenient way of borrowing my sister's camera to take pics of my art >_<
Lol I got off topic there.. oops!
Ooo Manga studio sounds cool! And those other programs as well! I like programs that have tons of tools on them, but they are easy to use and work with^^

@MangaKid:

Oh I have Gimp and it's very similar to photoshop! I just don't know how to use it! XD I think it might be because it's been a long time since I've used photoshop.
I've been using Paint Tool Sai and Sketchbook Pro, and sometimes Manga Studio.

@toyotami kun:

Yes, I think I should! It sounds amazing!! honestly, I've never tried photoshop before... Have you heard of GIMP? Thats the only program I've used but I deleted the download after I was done using it. I'm thinking of trying it out again, or trying something like photoshop sometime. :)

@MangaKid:

thank you! Photoshop is really fun to use, but it's been almost year since I've used it though. I've been useing other prgrams now.
You should try is sometime, maybe a trial version or something! there's so many features it has and there's so many things to you can do too! XD

CUTE! nice work with photoshop! I've never used it, but it looks awesome You're so talented!
