@MangaKid:

Okay 8)
Oh, haha! Yeah but you do have your own job, my parents would have to buy it for me that's why I wouldn't want to pay that much...of course if I did have my own job I probably REALLY wouldn't want to pay that much...but if I thought I needed it I might overlook the price and regret it later x)

@PurpleMochi:

Hahaha x)
Ah I'm not on, but I'll get on now <3
Yeah, you made me think of that more... I don't really pay much attention to the price if I really want something xD But I think a ball would be better now that I've stopped to think, so thankyou!

@MangaKid:

Sokay 8)
Ah :/ ...lol, apparently not. And indeed :)
Haha! X)
...Oh, yeah I am, on oovoo, so are you on right now then?
Oh lol, it would be nice to have that chair, but it's a bit overpriced I think.

@PurpleMochi:

Haha its fine! I'm gonna try to reply to all ur replies, tho I might be shorter ><"
No its fine! I understand and I believe in that too... I guess Rebekah doesn't have a problem with it.. I don't think jamal does either =_= I won't! Yea I'm sure it'll be ok :)
LOL that jsut sounds so weird and funny XD OH LOL, too funny!!!
^_^ yup I agree!
LOL yes yes!! I'm glad we can talk here! Abbey said u are on ooVoo s maybe I can get on after I reply to ur comments here <3
Haha me too, my dad wants me to just buy the ball so I just have to find a good one x)
:)

@MangaKid:

Lol xD But I did! I failed the short comment challenge horribly! >3< lol
^ ^ <3
Indeed! Lots of mini emails XD
Yeah, sorry, the way I wrote that was weird. And I didn't even think about it oO until Ben asked me about it, but again don't tell anyone that Ben asked me x) And yeah, lol. Yeah, I didn't either but I do believe, and I'll pray about it, that the Lord will show them what to do.
Haha, you're funny X) I feel sorry for your future boyfriend, he'll have to see you looking like a zombie from lack of food X) He'll have to take you somewhere nice to eat so you can look human again...lol xD
It made me feel better too, lol, that's why I said it xD but I think I'm right about that :)
Ah, it has been 4 days since I last talked to you OO I am shriveling = = need...more...talking...with Jenna! x)
Ah, yoga balls. Oh really, haha, well I'm just gonna buy one of the exercise/yoga balls and hope I don't fall backwards whist sitting at my desk.
Yay Target <3

@PurpleMochi:

AHAHAHA you made me laugh when you said at the end that you failed at the short comment xD *LOL*
Hooray, I'm looking forward to more! <3
Haha I'll also try to get on, but its neat talking to you here over comments! Like a bunch of mini emails x)
OOOH I see what u mean there... I remember thinking that once but sort of forgot about that issue. Wah Ben's thinking about it too huh? Yeah I agree with that... So far, they are happy. I didn't really think about it tho >u<" Yeah I think she's going to see him! I'd be SO nervous if I were her! O_O" I'd probably not be able to eat for the whole week and look like a zombie when I met him xD
Yeah for sure, that thought makes me feel better ^_^
HAHAHAHA XD If we didn't talk, I'd start shriveling up. (true story)
LOL Yeah! But you're right.. I think they're also called yoga balls. I'm gonna just buy the chair tho I think. Its cuz I realized that its the same price of another chair I was gonna buy before seeing this one so I would have spent the same amount anyhow xP
<3 I can't wait to check out Target!
Its ok! xD

@MangaKid:

Hey, coming back and replying to this message X)
Yeah! Haha xD
Ah thanks >//< I really will post some more art in a bit, after I finish them and start a few x).
Ah, lol, yeah I actually need to get on oovoo more too :/
Oh yeah, haha! I'm glad that she's (rebekah) happy, I do sometimes wonder and don't say anything but Ben actually asked me about it, if it's entirely right for hispanics and whites to be together BUT I don't know, I believe the Lord will help them to know if it's right or if it's not though. And I am happy for her, she's planning on visiting him in July after the camp, like cause he's going to the older camp.
Ah, yeah I've thought the same, I imagine they probably feel the same way we do, don't want to appear unfriendly but just wind up not talking as much because they're busy and don't have a lot to talk about, stuff like that.
Ah ^___^ Same! And yeah o_o same, I always think I'm a horrible friend to people because I don't talk to them enough, but it'll be alright x) they'll get over it.
<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3
Haha, I guess it doesn't seem like it belongs in "sporting" goods, more like play things to me (me and my brother used to have a blast playing with those X)
Yep, I like our target 8)
...= = I failed the short comment challege

@PurpleMochi:

LOL ok me too *short comment challenge!* xD
Lolz, I'd love that... seeing your art is always fun!
Same here, I'd get lazy and I'm lazy now with anything called ooVoo or emailing xD Hahaha yeah thats so true about us emailing so long!
Yeah for sure... I think she's really happy since she's talking to her boy friend a lot ;)
Ya... I end up thinking those friends who haven't really talked to me are just not compelled to do so. But I know what its not true, I'm sure they are busy and actually its ok. I'm glad to have a good friend in you!! I just don't want to be a bad friend myself O_O
<3<3<3
OH right, I should check a sports store *facepalm* XD
AH that sounds good then! I'm excited to check it out since what I've heard about Target from you~ x)

@MangaKid:

I'll try to shorten it this time > < lol
Yeah, oh okay, thanks o3o
Ah >U< haha, I do need to post some every now and then just so you can see it, and THANK YOU >3< <3
You're so nice >//< haha, but yeah it would be :)
^__^ I was the one who didn't email fast enough, I got lazy every now and then about emailing you back..but that's cause we wrote so much xD
Ah yeah I talk to Rebekah too, not all that much but I'm glad to keep in contact with her.
Ah, I'm sure they do remember you, but yeah I've wondered that about some of mine too :/ Lol x) Dave.
Ah, I'm very thankful to God for that too!
Ah, lol, and yeah I haven't actually seen any of those, I'm assuming I can buy one at a sporting goods store.
XD YEAH! lol
Yeah, only better and not so huge..or the one here isn't as huge.

@PurpleMochi:

SO long!!! xD its ok, I'll prob write just as much again too xD
Yeah, me too! I love the fantasy stuff! If I find any good artists, I'll let u know!
Lol teehee! I already think that you're become even awesomer with your art now that you're drawing a lot more! <3
Yeah! I would want to steal u but I wouldn't xD It would be nice to hang out with others :)
Yep!
WAH that makes me feel so glad, I'm so happy that we kept talking!! I thought you were super, but I felt like I didn't email fast enough xD YES me too! I haven't even been in contact with other people, except I did talk to Rebekah when I got on ooVoo last time.
I think thats cool! I'm sort of like that too, but I sometimes wonder whether my older friends even remember me since we never talk =_= Lol Dave! And yeah, thats true. Some people are just friends for life <3 I'm thankful to God for that!
Yay! Yeah it looks good, but I never looked hard at the price and now I think you're right. My dad also thought I should just get a ball too. I need to find one tho! xD
Lol its fun, nothing can stop us! haha
Nice about only the good stuff at Target! Its like a Walmart right?
Haha thats ok!

@MangaKid:

Haha XD
Yeah same, I like to look at some of the fantasy artworks..I haven't got on there much tho, DA I mean.
Ah x) I just need to "improve" at improving.
Welcome and Yep! ^ ^
Yeah! :) Only if you do come down it'll be me and several other people I'd be staying with, but it would be really nice to see you there! And maybe we could go out to eat with some of the young people there.
Yeah, it sounded like a good book.
Haha xD Well I've never had any christian friends before you, except for one good friend, and I was really glad that you emailed me back like you actually wanted to talk to me oO lol, like I said I lose contact with most people due to lack of communication...but then again this friend from my church, we like barely talked to each other for years because she was so busy with work and school, but we're still real close..and Dave, lol, I haven't talked to him in like a long time but we're still good friends, so it's weird, but I think the Lord knows why.
Indeed! o3o
Ah, yeah I did, that's why I think I'll buy one of those balls now that I know that xD Ah, yeah haha, it would be convenient to just buy it but it is a bit pricey for a souped up exercise ball. you are so awesome o3o I love building stuff! lol, I haven't in a long time tho.
Hahaha! TARGET! Yeah target's a pretty cool store 8) there clothing line is ungodly here but they have some nice stuff, like room decor and stuff for your home. And hats 8)
@.@ this is longer then the last reply xS sorry!

@PurpleMochi:

LOL yes so long! but yay, now I can write a long reply back to ya xD
Yeah I agree! I can get lost just browsing DA O_O If I find a good artist, I just look at all their art xD
Lol I have to do the same thing, but more in the way of improving my style before trying new ones xD
Wah thanks!! And Im glad u are doing more art too <3 Woo!
Oh yes! I'll have to come down, tho I'll be most excited to see you! I'll have to read some of her book... I thought the story plot sounded good!
(Now I'm laughing, u make me laugh all the time xD) This is so funny, seeing that u thought I was a cool artist person who emailed u back XD hahaha! Ooo yes, I know right?! It is really awesome how we met and became friends! and how we relatively haven't hung out a lot still, but I think you are the bestest!
Haha yes strange, isn't it? xD
LOL It is supposed to make a really good seat, did u read about what the ball does for posture? I'm wanting to buy one but you have a point about just making it xD I used to be like that... If I couldn't buy something, I'd make it!
OH Target is coming to Canada! thought I'd tell u that xD

@MangaKid:

Yep x) Ah, lol, Indeed, DA has a lot of different, and sometimes pretty impressive, artworks on there x,
Yeah ^_^ but now I think I should improve at the mediums I'm using for a while before trying any more X)
Ah, well that's okay cause you're really good at digital and with pencil :) And thanks xD I'll continue to do more too. Yay ^ ^
Haha, if you come to Georgia on Labor day she'll most likely be there. Ah, and yeah she did, I read like a glimpse of the book on amazon I think, and it sounded good, she's a good writer.
Haha, I thought of that when I was typing that xD It's true! I didn't lose contact with you, but then again you would talk to me when I would email or comment and I thought you were a really cool artist person (which you are) XD AH! I'm so happy I'm friends with you!! >//< lol, now that I'm thinking back it's just so cool how it worked out.
Ah, that is weird, Curry's art store, Artisono's food...they are backwards, lol
Oh, lol, well I might actually buy an exercise ball now but it would be cool if I could build a frame for it. All I'd need is some wheels and some type of circular plastic that's the right size as the ball, and a few tools...lol, then I'd have it made, literally.
Ah = = so long, lol, sorry

@PurpleMochi:

So true, thats it exactly. And looking at art on DA doesn't help =_= That is awesome!! I'm glad u are trying new medium stuff and enjoying it! I'm always afraid to try new mediums xD I just stay with pencil haha or digital, but I really am happy that you're doing more art!! I love it!!
Neat, I'll have to meet her in person then.. Yeah it was kind of weird talking to her online and I haven't replied to her email yet either >3< I think she got a book published. LOL thats funny, cuz you never lost contact with me xD I was surprised that you kept wanting to talk to me, but I'm so glad u did!
Haha thats neat! Its weird cuz the art store that I like is called Curry's and then there is an exotic restaurant beside it called Artisano's. Its like, curry is a food and artisano sounds like an art store, but its the opposite haha xD
LOL Thats what my dad wants me to do too, just buy an exercise ball... but idk what I'll buy yet :/
^_^

@MangaKid:

Haha, thanks! >//<
Ah yeah, me too. It's cause there are so many different art styles, you see a new and you want to try it..so far most of my drawings were done in colored pencil or acrylic paint, but I've started really loving oil pastels and carbon and charcoal pencils.
Welcome, and yeah :)
That would be so cool x)
I talked to her a bit at the labor day meetings and she's really a cool person to talk to, but I don't talk to people online very well :/ I kinda lose contact with everybody from my lack of communication = = And yeah, so do I :)
It's actually called Jerry's Artarama.
Ah! That's cool, lol..and expensive. I should buy an exercise ball and build a frame with wheels for it.
I believe that too, and that's okay x) I would very much love to come myself.

@PurpleMochi:

LOL ur so bad! YES its true!! I love your art! ^_^
Ah that makes sense... I just felt like I always want to do some other style xD LOL AH really?!! Thas funny, thankyou for saying that ^_^ I'm glad u can notice a style in my art :)
Yeah I agree, I still wanna watch the movies with u (come over this summer and we can have a Ghibli marathon ;)
Oh thats right.. Yeah I talked to Laurissa once but it was kind of awkward... It was like she was wondering why I was talking to her :/ I think her wood burning art is neat tho!
Oh I haven't heard of Jerry's before, I would like to start buying more online tho... I might buy a chair online, its this one: CLICK
YAY I'm really excited cuz I think something will work out for you to come here <3 I don't mean to pressure u tho, I just would very much love for u to come ^_^

@MangaKid:

Ah >U< not true but thank you <3
Lol, why? I love to try different styles, it would have your own style in it anyway, unless you copy the drawing exactly. And you do have a style, cause I can usually tell when I see a drawing on the top 8 fan art before I read the name mangakid x) that it's yours, especially if it's a manga drawing. Lol, ^__^ same! And studio ghibli is the best xD ..Of course Larissa is an artist, but I'm not real close friends with her just cause I don't talk to her as much as I should I guess :/ She does oil paintings besides wood burning.
Ah yeah, or from an online art store, like Jerry's maybe :D haha
Ah >U< I will! haha, I just need to arrange how to get there and back. But I'm glad you want me to come visit, because I want to come up there and usually I don't want to ask if I can come visit someone, I let them ask me first, cause I don't want to stay if it's a bad time or anything like that.
Lol
Ah, neat, yeah they're cool, I would like to do some drawings with them too.

@PurpleMochi:

Thats good! :D I know for one thing that you're art is always lovely!
LOL TOTALLY!!! Hahaha you got it right xD I shouldn't do that tho, I should just stay with my own style... but sometimes I don't even think I have a style =_=
AHAHA I'm so glad u are an artist too, cuz I don't know any other believers who are artists, tho I'm sure there are some... But also, you like anime like Studio Ghibli so that is way cool too!!! ^_^
Yeah, you might find them in a more supply artstore? They probably aren't in Michaels. Hey!! just come visit me and then u can buy some! ;) *pressuring u into coming here* JKJKJK
Ugh! I'd be afraid to use thoe pencils in case I dropped them too xD
Same here! I wanna try those multi-coloured pencils out again tho x) Toyotami kun made a nice art with them right HERE!

@MangaKid:

Ah, exactly..I think I'm getting a little better tho, at not making it so perfectly x)
Ah :/ sowie. I know, it's frustrating when you see this art style that looks really neat and you think I should do that, so you try it and you're like "+_+ not...simple, doesn't even look the same = =" lol
Ah cool beans, yay for Kate 8) I'm glad you, my friend, are an artist! Otherwise I would be the only person I know who draws >_<...lol
Ah, okay, that's nice. I haven't seen any mechanical colored pencils here, but I haven't looked for them either, maybe I just never noticed them. Yeah, I dropped like 4 of them = =
Yeah I have 8) haha, they're fun xD I had one, but that was a long while ago, I doubt I still have it.

@PurpleMochi:

Yeah!! I'm the same tho... I don't like practicing too much cuz I feel like doing the whole thing perfectly or at least neatly xD I just mentioned on my PM that I tried practicing a new style tonight and it made me feel bad cuz it was so hard!! and I'm so tired =_= But my sister Kate wants to start doing practice sketches too so I'll probably be motivated by her to do some more xD
Yeah thats right! Its coloured pencil led :) Oh thats so cool!! but that wouldn't be fun if u dropped it :/ Did u see the coloured pencils with multi-coloured leds?
No its ok, its not ur fault!

@MangaKid:

>3< welcome!
You're so right OO I was just thinking that the other day and today too. I definitely want to, I want to do a sketch a day at least and not worry about what it looks like x)just draw for the pure practice of it xD
X) Haha, yeah! But they are, like the lead is colored pencil lead, right? And that is cool 8D I have these colored pencils that are wood-less, so the entire pencil is all lead, it's helpful in that you don't use up the pencil as fast but if you drop em on the floor they brake into xP
Ah yeah :( sorry bout that.

@PurpleMochi:

Thankyou!!! This is what u need to do more xD And I need to do it more too... Pencil sketch studies! They are very helpful <3
LOL They are!! but these aren't ordinary coloured pencils... THEY ARE MECHANICAL COLOURED PENCILS!!
and I sent u one for Christmas and the mean mail people stole it D8<

Ah, cool x) That's a neat idea, and they're good drawings for quick sketches COLORS! @3@ lol
And cool again 8D Aren't colored pencils addictive? x)

@toyotami kun:

Thanks Toya!! I used to not have a use for the pencils but now that I tried them, I want to get every colour xD

Thanks so much for all ur kind words!
Lol thats funny! I don't care too much for Lotr either but the characters are really fun to draw <3

Awesome job Jen! I really like that colorful lead for the mechanical pencil! I didn't know there was colored lead! I need to find some!!!

I think that each sketch here looks awesome! I really like all the details for everyone! you did a wonderful job with the realism too!
I'm not really into lotr so I don't know most of the characters other than the ones I've seen you draw before...OTL lol

@HotRamen2Go009:

Thanks a million, Ramen!! Kyaaa you're too nice <3 I would never have thought I'd be able to draw realism let alone anime/manga, but after being so inspired and encouraged by my friends like yourself, I want to do my best!!
So thankyou so much again! <3

@CitrusStorm:

STORMY!!! *hugs* Great to see u, or hear from you! :D
Lol yeah I booed and hissed at the Orcs xD

Thankyou so much! *highfives for orange*! Hope you're doing well!

@CelestialSushi:

No problem, Sushi! I've been wanting to dedicate something LotR-related to you! Lol Ikr? the coloured pencils were much more exciting to use then normal pencil xD
I am so happy you like them!!! ^_^

Totally! Hahaha oh yeah, those Orcs and wargs... O_O"" But everyone else is pretty cool!

@Rainbow Dragon:

Thankyou Judai!! You should watch or read the Hobbit sometime too :D
Hooray, I'm so glad you think they look like the real characters <3 I relaly like these guys :D
Thanks for asking! I actually will be starting Johan today or tomorrow... I'm on sketch 4 and I have to also ink the previous sketches. I went on a marathon of drawing yesterday and got a lot done but haven't hit Johan yet. I'm looking forward to him tho! If I had to put a time on it, I'll probably have these sketches all finished and posted by next week! :D

@DeathSeraph:

sahjfklahljdf thankyou Sera!!! I actually think I messed up badly on Kili but they were all fun to draw x) I want to do larger digital version of them as well sometime :D
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaa you're too kind!!!! >//U//<

Oh WOW! Love it! *stare*
It's so cool!

Fghjkahshduehdjajajsjahahshsgajaksksksk!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE AWESOMENESS IN THIS DRAWING IS OVERPOWERING!!!!!!!
XD

@CitrusStorm:

Meh, I guess you could consider it an archaic phrase if they don't. Then again, you might be able to hear booing at sports games, right?

Wha!!! You made them looks so cool and the colors are great. Their facial expressions are well drawn, and you have studied their faces well! I admire your ability to try out new things (like realism :D) and take it to a whole new level :)

Later Jen

Aw, thanks for the dedication! :D And those colors, wow... but man, those are some really fantastic and detailed sketches :D THE HAIR, the shadowing... it's really great :D

Yeah, the characters are pretty neat, huh? :D Obviously, you've got your villains to boo and hiss at, but there are plenty of heroes and good guys to love and cheer on.

Epic art is epic~i love LOTR.
You did an awesome job. Your realism is so lifelike. Beautiful details. Looks exactly like them. Great job.
Did you start the Johan drawing yet?(just wondering is all)
~Judai

wow, they look awesome!!! :D Fili and Kili are amazing, and also Gandalf is perfect :D
awesome work, not that I can't expect anything less from an amazing artist as you ;)
