Thankyou, A13!!! :D I'm glad you like it!
Aww you're so sweet, I feel so happy x3 I'm actually working on another entry for your challenge! And my sister has one too, but she's rarely been online... We'll definitely post before the deadline^^

@:

I agree!!! xP I like cold weather much better :D
Oh I'm reading Prince of Tennis! Its good! I've never heard of those other ones you mentioned... I should check them out! Have you heard of Whistle!, Major, or Crimson Hero? Those are good ones too... and of course Eyeshield 21 is amazing^^

@:

AH YES!!! Exactly!... if only I COULD draw/write a good story just like Eyeshield 21 =_= I feel like I can't do it sometimes. Lol but hearing you ask that just made me happy cuz that definitely is my goal x3
*highfives!* I love sports manga as well! I was gonna ask you which ones you have read, but I'll go look at you giant manga/anime list instead^^ (that is a very convenient list!)
I actually don't officially play hockey... I only play it in the winter when the ponds freeze into ice and our neighborhood can make some ice rinks! IT IS SUPER FUN!! But guess what? This winter it was too warm so now I have to wait a whole year again! Dx

@:

Ah your nice words make me super happy!! I can't explain how much I appreciate your comments^^ I'm always really glad that you enjoy my art! Lol I still have a long ways to go though... Since I want to do a hockey manga, I'll probably be trying to draw drawing more hockey players soon to practice. x3

@hackerblackrose:

Thankyou! Lol I just finished up quickly on the hair... I wanted to bring out the brightness and I was squished for space. But next time I'll keep an eye out on that! Thanks again!

i really like this piece a lot :D but i think you should of work more on the hair where the white part is the strokes at the end of it makes it seem messy but over all it is really good :) ♥

@MangaKid:

Yeah same. I like it Saturday nights but not friday nights cuz it gets darker sooner.

@twilight samurai:

Oh take your time! I haven't started on your phoenix yet, but I'm brainstorming an idea^^

Lol yeah, I'm not in school anymore^^ And I actually haven't been in school for a while as I was homeschooled! You're right about that, it can be boring xP Funny, I was thinking about that this morning... I have friends but I don't hang out a lot. And this winter, I missed ice hockey so that means no social games Dx. But I have theO, my 4 siblings xP, the dogs, and in the summer I'm going to a camp so I can't wait for that! Lol so thats why I have more time for art! Its sorta like give and take xD

@Aria Sky:

Lol I actually don't always have to walk dogs every single day. I have to walk my dog everyday, but my work schedule varies. I regularly walk one dog on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday every week. And then the others are usually 2-3 times a week and nothing on weekends usually. Lol it leaves me lots of time for art! :D
But I'll be having to do more studying now to get ready for that GED test Dx so I'm gonna be shocked haha!

@byakuyarox1:

I saw it! And I love how you drew Nagisa^^ Arigatou, tomodachi!! Ugh I don't like day-light savings time too! Sometimes its alright, but its particularly annoying when you feel like you're actually losing time Dx

@Gero Chan:

Thanks so much, Gero chan! I thought Ichigo's orange hair would stand out on a blue background :D I love orange and blue xD Thanks again!

@:

Thankyou so much for your comment on my Bleach art! I'm sorry about the late reply... I couldn't reply 5 consecutive times which is a bother Dx Anyway, yep I coloured this by hand with copic markers which are really amazing tools! I'm really glad you like it! :D Thanks again!

@MangaKid:

Oooo! I can't wait to see it! I have to work on your Charmander picture. :P

So wait, you're not in school? That's nice to have all that time to yourself, but it must get boring at times, right? But then again, you've been doing so much drawing lately that that mustn't be the case. xDDDD

@MangaKid:

You're so amazing to be able to draw so many drawings every day!
And you still have to walk the dogs as well!

@MangaKid:

lol okay! I am almost done. I have to finish coloring the dress. It's coming out pretty good so far. I've been working since 2:00 so the room is slowly getting darker. I hate daylight savings time sometimes.

@Jouanofarc:

Haha xD yeah I'm sure I have never watched Bleach before! Lol I've seen Ichigo pictures around a lot though cuz he's so popular^^ I'm really thankful for your nice words :D I'm so happy Ichigo looks like Ichigo!

@star petals:

Thankyou so much!!! I never though of it that way before... so cool!^^

@twilight samurai:

Lol thanks so much, my friend!
Its funny cuz sometimes I think that I don't have the time to draw, but its probably only my lazy side tricking me xP
Since I'm not in school, I usually have the whole day off unless I have to walk dogs^^ Its great, but I'm sorry to say that sometimes I procrastinate Dx
PS. And your phoenix request is next! :D

@byakuyarox1:

No problem! I'm so happy that you like it I can't wait to see what you have in store for me^^
I got on my laptop late today so thats why I'm replying late... and I read your emails as well so I'll reply soon too :D

@Aria Sky:

Lol thankyou so much, Lea!!!! Yeah it is similar to my Link art... Recently I've been really interested in doing those artworks with 2 sides of one character^^ I'm so glad you enjoyed this! I'm glad the 'ripping paper' turned out alright! :D I've been working harder on my art recently so hearing such nice words from you makes me super happy x3 *hugs*

Gorgeous as usual~!!! I like the contrast of the bg with Ichigo's hair! And the eyes are spectacular~! Awesome work and keep it up!
- Gero Chan

This is a great idea!! Are you sure you've not seen bleach before? It looks awesome!

Very cool concept! The tear-away effect is especially interesting - Ichigo is literally ripped apart by this alternate side. Keep it up!

You must have gobs of time to just draw stuff!

This looks great. I like how the colors pop!

He looks fabulous! Made my day! Lol arigatou gozaimasu. I'm going to color yours today. I drew it yesterday.

Amazing! I swear, your drawings are getting better and better, with each one. I don't know how that's possible, but you make it happen!
I just LOVE how you make it seem as if he's ripping the paper. At first, I thought it'd be something like your Link drawing and the sword, but then I realized that it's like ripping off paper...a "mask"!
My shock ---> O_O
You're so creative!! Good luck in the challenge!

@MangaKid:

Even though it not a checkerboard, it still came out good! It's almost like glass and I thin that effect looks better! I'll look forward to more of your experimenting!

@caosgoth:

Thankyou so much! That makes me super happy, every time I read your comments^^

@toyotami kun:

Thankyou, Toya!! Yeah I tried the checker-board background this time^^ Its not exactly in a checker-board 'pattern' though but it was neat to try! I'm so happy you like it^^ I wanna try out some more things in the future :D

@ItachiSasuke:

Thankyou so much, Bonnie!!! Lol I asked my sis whether it looked like ripping paper or not and she was like 'How can you ask such a thing?! Its definitely ripped paper!' But I guess its harder for me to notice as I'd been staring at it for 5 hours... That brings me to my point of why I'm really glad to hear that you enjoy it so much and can tell whats going on^^ Thankyou as always for your wonderful comment^^ *hugs*

@animegirl171:

Thankyou, Ana-chan!! I'm glad you like his hands cuz they were the hardest part >_< I thought I messed up on them at one point!
I would have probably started Bleach but I see that its SO long!!! Just like Naruto! Maybe I'll watch it someday... it looks cool^^ Lol I feel a bit 'behind the times' since Bleach is so popular yet I haven't watched it xD

@:

Thankyou so much, Pramod! I'm glad you like it! Woah you think so? I keep thinking that I've been slower then usual so it makes me feel better that I haven't slacked off too much^^ Usually I have enough free time to do art but sometimes I end up doing other stuff instead so I feel like I wasted my time xP
Thanks as always for your nice comment^^

Awesome job, Jen. The ripping of the paper is unique and can't believe you haven't watch or read Bleach yet, but was able to capture Ichigo's personality so well. Like how you decide to use colors, though I think you would produce an awesome pencil sketch anyways :D Have a good day

Oh my gosh this looks awesome!!! Ichigo looks really good and I love your coloring!!!! That background looks so good too! Good luck with your challenge!!!

I forgot to add, I thihk that idea with Ichigo ripping the page was really good! I love it!!!

Wow, this is stunning (as usual)!!
I just love how you made the paper look like it's being ripped! :D
I see that you're colouring like a professional now XD Keep up the stunning work~~~
The 3-D background aspect to this art is pretty neat as well. Best of luck in the challenge, though you won't need it :D
Take cares~!

o.o So awesome! :D
I love how you colored it! Whole idea of this drawing is so amazing :)). His hands look great too. Good luck in the challenge, but seeing this I don't think you'll need it xD.
You never watched Bleach? I thought everyone did xP. (I watched it a bit too^^).
