Hey, the comic is coming along nicely.  Great work :D.  And I'm glad you're going through with Ashlee's idea, because the grandma/little cousin FMG thing, would have just been wrong.  I know some people enjoy that stuff, and that's fair enough.  But it just doesn't sit right with me.

I really liked it.  It was exactly as long as it needed to be :D, and it also made a really powerful point.  If I could think up a great plot for a Tetsuko story, then I'd probably have a shot at it!

Wow, that was a nice growth sequence.  Is the rest of the anime that good??

Hmm, so what makes an artist?  Well, they say "a picture is worth 1000 words".  So I guess a nice broad definition of what makes a good artist would be "the amount of words that an artist could cram into one picture."

I definitely agree with you when you said about art been a popularity contest.  I know I'm definietely glad to see when a drawing I've put up on deviantArt has got a bunch of favourites.  Its just because when you put some intellectual property up on the net, its nice when it gets a response.  Especially if someone else gets some joy out of it.

I only really draw for fun.  I know I won't be able to make a career out of my drawings simply because I lack the skill required.  I guess in a couple years time after a lot more practice I might be good enough, but I've got other plans for my life.  I guess in that regard, I am a successful artist, because I've got the bar set so low that anyone could clear it :D.  I'm having a lot of fun drawing this stuff, and am glad that other people are enjoying it.

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone  😎

A fine work, dear Bass. Excellent blending and line work.
And is the background somewhere local to you or merely a photograph that you found within the Cyber Space Realms?
For it looks very familair to this eye.

Actually, yes, the background is a photograph of somewhere in the vicinity of where I live.  Heh, unfortunately that doesn't narrow it down a lot, because there were a lot of misguided attempts to plant pine trees in an environment that doesn't support them throughout this city.

Thanks!

I think the coloring is great! I also like th outfit. 😆 😆

I'm glad you loved it 😀  I decided to do those modifications to the outfit, because I don't think the original showed off enough of the goods :p.

I loved the way that picture turned out 😀  You should definitely consider doing some more of her :p.

So how does this trading work in regards for art swap? Do you show him a low res version and he shows you one, then when it's worth it you exchange a Hi Res version?

Basically you do a drawing of someone's choice as long as they do one of your choice.  You just give them the high res versions.  No need to mess around with low res pictures.  I wanted Iczerman to do a picture of Kari, from Digimon, because I'm obsessed with her.  And Iczerman wanted my take on his character Tress in this case.

By the way, I'm a she.

Happy Birthday 😀

I got you this awesome paper clip :D.  See, in this configuration you can use it to hold paper together!!  And if you bend it this way, then you can…  ummm…

Well, Happy Birthday anyway :D.

[Bass]

Heh, actually I'm not really a noob.  Yet, this is still the first time I've seen any of those pics.  Awesome pics, and thanks for the artist commentary :p, now I won't need to pick up the DVD.

[Bass]

Dang..  If I were good enough, I'd take comissions :p.  But now it sounds like more trouble then its worth :(.
