@Team Plasma N:

Lol its okay about the comments, but you should have seriously saw my reaction when i woke up this morning and checked my backroom to see TONS OF COMMENTS PILING UP!! xD I was so surprised, but super happy :D Thankyou for taking the time to comment on my art^^ I'm so happy you enjoy looking at them <3
Ah thankyou! I believe the drawing looks better on the computer though, instead of real life. If you really look at it up close, the circles are all wonky O_o But I'm glad you think it turned out well! LOL Wow, you think so? Thankyou so much!! Well, I use the copic markers which will make someone without talent look like a pro (they better do that, since they're so expensive! xD Anyway, I usually do layers: light colours first, then more detail over top. I'm a sucker for detail haha! And actually, I frequently mess up so I end up piling more colours on to cover my mistakes... sometimes it works, and sometimes it makes it worse Dx. So I still need to practice, but I'm very happy you like my results so far^^ Thanks again for all the comments!!! I can't tell you how much they mean to me ^_^ I'm so touched when I read them all :) <3

Here we go! I have spammed you with at least 10 comments by now!! I am SOOOOO SORRY For not being around to comment on all your fantastic ones but I just commented on a few that really caught my eyes right away!! I just wanted to tell you that first off its really hard to get a background hand drawing for retro done and I have to say you pulled this off nicely. Second of all, how the F do you color like you do? I still don't get it! Dang girl!!!

Just even minor details and I can see them!!! They look great!!!

@MangaKid:

Lol aw thanks. I still need to work on my style. I'll use some of my books I have.

@byakuyarox1:

Ah NO! Don't say that! Your artwork is really good! I love how you do faces, don't say they're out of proportion cuz they aren't!! I love your style... Maybe I'll come by to leave comments for you on some of your older art soon too (mwahahaha random evil laugh xD)
I need to practice myself on some things like feet xP Ugh!

@MangaKid:

Haha really? I can't draw shoes for the life of me. My downfall in art is almost everything-feet, shoes, hand, poses, legs r really hard for me I think, facial proportion-the list goes on lol

@byakuyarox1:

Lol Thats funny that you like the sneakers!! I thought I messed up on them lol xD So I'm glad you don't think they are as bad as I think ^^' Usually I use a reference picture of shoes or even my own shoes so I can get all the detail down right
Ah thats ok^^ I actually was surprised to see so many comments, and then i was so happy to read them all :D Thankyou so much!!

How do you make your sneakers all detailed! hehe. I like the colors! Okay, I'll stop commenting now to keep your comment box open. :) That's not a promise yet. lol

@:

Thankyou so much, A13! I'm happy you like it! The colouring was new to me... I've never tried to do backgrounds with so many colours, so I'm happy it turned out well^^

@toyotami kun:

No problem! Oh i know what you mean^^ I seem to be more lazy on the holidays and I get SO out of my schedule. The holidays change evrything (my siblings are all home and I seems to just hang around without any dogs to walk xP). Anyway, I always love a little break though now that I'm not in school anymore, I don't really benefit from a holiday either :P
Woah you sound super busy! I can never clean up something without help... sometimes it gets too overwhelming for me and I can never concentrate on anything >3< I can;t wait till you get back to drawing too so then i can see new artwork from you^^

So interesting! Good idea for the Doushinji. If you need any help or anything, ask me and I'll do my best! :D I'm sure you'll do amazing on it. I'm feeling very happy right now, since I just stumbled upon one of my older comics. Its not good enough to post on theO since its super messy and its about bugs lol. But I'm thinking of re-drawing it with humans as the characters! It might just work^^
Yes, I'll wait for you and your art after New Years! It'll be so fun x3 I bet you can't wait to start drawing more and posting lots again!
OKAY! Thanks for the recommendation! I'll definitely check it out :D I've never heard of Ice Revolution before, but it sounds amazing^^ Thanks again! And guess what? I started watching Clannad too! I love it so much!!! I laugh while watching it but its also been sad. I'm on episode 10 right now^^ Thanks for the recommendations!
I know! The weather is being crazy this year. Why can't it just be cold in the winter and hot in the summer? everything is getting mixed up xP
LOL I didn't mean to write this much! Sorry, I'll stop writing now!

@MangaKid:

Sorry for the late reply, ah man I have to start with the cleaning tonight, I'm not looking forward to that or tomorrow since things are going to be so busy and I won't be albe to draw! I'm glad the holidays are almost over then I can go back to my holf normal self, drawing and getting distracted! XD
Oh the Doujinshi, I'm still writing the script and looking for city refereces since I'm challengeing myself with this. I don't want to ruch it, and I'm not sure when I'll get to post. The pages will be posted her cause I consider The Otaku my home base! XD I always everything here first, and I try to post on DA to but I'm lazy! XD
I'm still so busy with stuff, but I'll be post art soon and maybe some comic pages to, I just have to finish all these things for New Years!!! XD
I think that the ice skaters will be a good idea since you are really into that! You should also read Ice Revolution, it's an ice skating manga, but it's not completed yet! I really recommend that one! it's really good! XD
It's so funny, it got hot here, there is no sign of snow at all, the weather is so weired! XD this might be the first yar without snow! XD I don't really winter, it's to cold, but the snow is pretty! XD

@toyotami kun:

Wow sounds like so much work! I bet it'll all taste so yummy though :3 My family had our turkey for Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I'll be sure to talk to you after New Years day! I also need to reply to your email :) And then after all the celebration, we can both get back to drawing comics and art! I really can't wait to see your new comic pages... are you going to post any of your doushinji (spelling?)on theO? I'd love to see anything you draw/write.

Oh good idea!! Maybe I should draw ice skaters^^ That sounds like a perfect solution to my problem :D Thanks for the inspiration!! I'm actually feeling a lot better after today. And I'm happy because it snowed a lot! Its supposed to rain tonight though :( I'll wish for more snow and winter weather for both of us then x3 Oh I didn't even ask you, do you even like the cold weather?

@MangaKid:

yes we're already preparing stuff! my mom is going to buy a turkey and cook it tomorrow so that way that will be out of the way saturday and we can jump to making tamales! XD
I may clean tomorrow after work but I maybe tired XD

It didn't snow at all here, it almost did, but it's getting rainy again! I think that maybe you should draw ice skaters or something since it seems your really into that right! ^_^

@toyotami kun:

No problem! I know, time is the most bothersome thing sometimes >_< I wish time could be slowed down or stopped, or even reversed sometimes LOL
I guess you and your family are getting ready for your big New Years party! Most of my celebrations are over for this holiday, but one tihng I'm really looking forward too still is an ice rink to skate on! It snowed more today and its cold too so HOPEFULLY it won't all melt away before we can make the rink. And in the meantime, I need to start doing some more art projects. I'm just so lazy Dx

@MangaKid:

you have a point, I'm just stressing over the time! I really do feel bad about the paper! I with I would of not been so carless. But still, I'll see if I can have it up this week. I will be carful not to hit an artist block, I didn't even thing about that!

@toyotami kun:

DON'T WORRY! I know you must feel awful for tearing the paper, but don't worry about me^^ I'll love whatever you draw and whenever you post it. I just don't want you to hit an artist block because you're having trouble with the drawing (with your hand). I'll be here, so you don't have to rush or anything. Thankyou so much though!! *hugs*
And I'm glad to here that your hand is feeling better! :D

@MangaKid:

I accidently tore the paper for rushing it, I feel so stupid for that, so I'll start over! I see if I can post up the sketch! I'm so sorry about that!
Sometimes I can be an idiot when it comes to stuff!
I would like to see if I can have it done this week, I don't like to keep it for to long! Sorry!
My hand is feeling better, I had to just sketch a little, but no coloring till recently! XD

@toyotami kun:

Lol Don't worry at all!! Waiting makes me even more excited! It'll be a surprise for me when you post it :)
I'm glad you like your dedication so much^^ I know I'll love your artwork too! Thankyou for taking so much time and effort to make it... Its too bad your hand starting hurting at this time =_= I really don't mind if you take longer though, its totally fine! I know you will get it done! :D And sometime again we should do another art trade or something similar^^ Its been fun so far!

@MangaKid:

Yes I really like this drawing you did and I just want to have my Half of the art trade done. I just sort of want to do something, if I don't draw, I get stressed so that is why I'm going to toughin it out. It's just silly that all had to happen now.

I don't think you messed up Kaito's eyes they look really pretty! XD lol the circles can be a off, even I can't do them perfect, which can be annyoing sometimes! XD

I'm glad we did the art trade too, even though my half is not up yet! sorry! I actually like doing art trades, they are fun, but I don't get to do them much, mainly cause I think people are to shy to ask, or it's me that to shy to ask! XD I'm glad you asked though! XD I promise to have your half done this week! sorry if I have to make you wait! T_T

@toyotami kun:

Thankyou so much, Toya! I'm glad you enjoy it :D I kept thinking I did average on it... but I'm super happy that you like it! Lol waiting probably made you even more excited to see it!! And I can't tell you how happy you made me, all your kind words! especially when you said you liked Kaito's eyes, since I seriously thought I messed up on them >_< and I'm glad you like Andres's outfit and Ponch too! It was fun to do, thanks for asking me to do an art trade with you :D It really motivated and inspired me! <3
Ooo I'm so glad that you like the background too!! It looks better from far away though since I didn't do the circles perfectly xD Lol I keep saying that I'm so happy, but that's cuz I really am!! :D
Oh thankyou, but don't push it with your hand! I'm excited to see it, SO EXCITED!! but do it at your pace ok? ;) Thankyou so much!

yes I finally got see this!!! After having so much trouble trying to wait!!!! XD
Wow Manga!!! You did such a beautiful job on this all three of them so so cool and the coloring is eally lovely!!! That background is so cool/nice!!! I really like those types of backgrounds!!!

lol Kaito has such pretty eyes!!! Ah!!! Ponch is cute and he's wearing blue, it's cute!!! Andres looks so coole and really like the way you dressed him! I like that they are listening to music together too!

You did such an awesome job, I hope I can do teh same! I decided, even though my hand hurts a little, I'll just toughin it out and color. I hope I can do the as good as you did!!!
Thank You this was really cool!
