WORLD WILL BE RECEIVING A RENO-JOB AS SOON AS TIME ALLOWS! Thankyou for your support and patience!

Hello and welcome to MangaKid and Ikemarth's Artist Cubby!
We hope you all enjoy your time here!

This is a world Ikemarth and I have created after our dear friend Angel Satina gave us this great idea! We wanted to create a place for artists to share their methods, experiences, tips/advice, ect. Its like a club in a community where artist friends can join even closer together^^ We will be posting anything such as our own step-by-step process of creating art, tutorials, art notices/progress, cool artistic videos, before and after pics of artwork, and simple tips as well as answer any questions that you post or have! We hope everyone, including us, will learn new artistic ways and become even more creative together as we experience each others' style. For new artists, we hope to help inspire you and motivate you to continue drawing!

Note: Check out the Cubby's sister world: The Otaku Fellowship by Aryia!!
If you are looking for tutorials on how to make wallies and ecards, please visit our friend Aria Sky's cool world The Ultimate Guide to Creating.
And if you're looking for a neat project to do, check out snow fox's Collaboration Nation!
And for additional awesome art tutorials, definitely check out ekaknr's Artist Cafe!

If you have any questions, feel free to PM MangaKid or Ikemarth! We are accepting guest posters, if you feel that you'd like to join and share your tips with the Otaku!

Rules+Guidlines: -Nothing inapropriate.
-We'd like you all to shorten your posts to new pages but you DO NOT have to shorten your profiles. Please post your profiles normally. We want the other posts to be shortened though as it'll be a lot more organized that way.
-You can post a chibi at the top of your posts if you'd like, but please make sure its small (approx. 300x300 pixels. A bit bigger then that is alright too.)
-No putting down anyone or making them feel uncomfortable (of course, we're all good friends here so I don't think we need to worry about this^^)
-If you join, you are not obligated to post (even though we'd LOVE to see posts from ya!). Feel free to post anytime or not post at all. The main thing is if you enjoy the club, learn new things, and make new friends :)

Hey Otakus!
Thankyou for visiting our Artist Cubby! I'm MangaKid aka Jen-chan and I'm very excited to start off this world with my good friend Ike! I hope it will be as much fun for you as it will be for us!
Alright, here's a little bit about me so you can get to know me better!

-Country: Canada
-Current Age (Jan 2012): 18

-Anime/Manga (the ever-growing list xD): Bakuman, Prince of Tennis, Whistle!, Crimson Hero, Dengeki Daisy, Maximum Ride, Eyeshield 21, Yotsuba, Kuroshituji, Wolf's Rain, Fruits Basket, Kaichou wa Maid Sama, Clannad, Hetalia, Ouran HSHC, Nana, MAJOR, Enigma, Studio Ghibli films, Special A, Beast Master, ToraDora, Genkaku Picasso, Tiger&Bunny, Mars, Highschool Debut, Cutie Boy, various shoujo one-shots, Summer Wars, Black Bird, Hana-Kimi, Go Ahead!, Gokusen,
-Favourite Genres: Sports, Romance, Drama, Comedy
-Video Games: Ocarina of Time 3D, Nintendogs, Super Mario, Mario Kart, old retro games x3

-Art Style: Traditional
-Favourite Tools: Copic Markers, Micron sakura pens, .5 mechanical pencil
And I like to try a little bit of everything: paints, coloured pencils, fabric paints, even digital (though I'm not good at it yet xD)

-About Me: Well I think I've always liked creating art since my mom used to be a graphic designer^^ In school, I liked to be as creative as I could but I never got into manga till the beginning of last summer. I used to like the style, but I never stuck with it long enough to learn anything. I couldn't even draw people. I was scared to try so I just stuck with realistic animal drawings. Last summer, I worked really hard on learning anime style though.A lot of good things happened to me: I started reading manga, I bought myself Copic markers, and I stumbled across theO while looking at fan arts. I'm really glad I joined theO as I've learnt a lot already and my confidencd has really been boosted by all your feedback and friendship! Thankyou^^ I think one day I'd like to learn more digital artwork and buy myself a tablet, but for now I just want to keep improving and experimenting with traditional :)
