JM Is Up AND New Art!

Heyo guys! Just wanted to tell ya, that, finally, JM has been posted! Yay!

Also, you know how I said yesterday that I was working on a piece of art? Well, I finished it, and it got approved today! Here it is!


It's my main pet, Purplewings! It took me 2, or maybe even 3, hours to complete. Though it may not look like it, I spent a ton of time smearing/softening (whatever you call it) all the lines. I think it paid off, though, and I'm pretty proud of this artwork! 
One of the bloggers (I believe it was Sarah? I THINK? I sorta forgot, XD) mentioned that they were drawing all the bloggers' main pets, and that gave me the idea to make this, so credit to them! :D


I also made another Owl City Masterpiece-


-but yeah, only people who have heard this song before will really get the words here. I will show the picture I used as a reference, though!


You have NO IDEA how hard it was to recreate this. I didn't even bother doing the... um... what do you even call that white dusty stuff? I dunno, but I didn't do it because the picture had already taken a long enough time to make. It looks simple, but when you're trying to recreate it in a bigger space with limited digital art tools, it's actually kinda hard!



Anywho, I'll try to make a real post sometime soon! Until then, remember to PARTY HARD, BE KIND, and JAM ON! :D

    1. Aw, thanks Kimberley! ,:D

      As for my digital-AJ-handwriting, I used the air brush tool, and put it on, well, THAT size (XD)!
      The paint brush is another story... XD!

      XDD, yessssss, I doooo! :D

      Delete
  4. OH MY GOODNESS, THAT OWL IS PURE AMAZING!!!! :OOOO Like, wow, I can't get over how perfect it is! You have improved your art SO much this past year, it's unbelievable! (Hahaha, see what I did there?! XD)

    *secretly wonders if I can have a masterpiece of my main pet* XD

    AND THAT MASTERPIECE OF THE OWL CITY SONG, AHHHH, IT'S SU GOOD!!!! :O You make me want to do something like that. XD I love a lot of songs. (Such as: pretty much ALL the RT songs, some CLEAN pop songs, some CLEAN K-pop songs, and a lot more. XD Yeah, I know, I like a few K-pop songs but c'mon, they are catchy and the lines are cute. XD OH, and I love Lindsey Stirling songs.)

    OH AND THE CHAPTER WAS AWESOME!!! :D I love JM. <3

    You have such an amazing writing style. I feel inspired when I read your story. Not like I'm gonna copy you but I just feel like I should try to reach your level of writerness, which is NOW A WORD!!! XD I sometimes feel like all writerly things skipped me. Cuz, my sis and brother write and they writer AMAZINGLY and I'm just.... me. XD But you help me get inspired to keep writing!! PLUS, YOUR STORY IS JUST PURE AMAZING. XD

    ^Sorry if that was weird, I'm tired.^ XD

    P.S. Guess who's posting two chapters of JH today? XDD I know, it's been forever.

    1. Awww, thank you Lost! ,:D
      And XDDD!

      Yeah, of course you can!!!
      Eheheh... what IS your main pet? I totally didn't realize you had one until just now... XD!
      I was gonna get on AJ and check what pet was by your main look, but then I realized that pets don't show up on player cards. Oops. XDDD!

      Aw, thank yooou! THOSE LINES TOOK ME FOREVER FOR SOME REASON! XD!
      And you're right, actually: K-pop is VERY catchy, and a lot of the songs are actually pretty good!
      (How do I know this about K-pop when I don't listen to it? The answer is my old friend, aka Dancer in Jamaasian Middle. XD!)
      OOOH YAY ANOTHER LINDSEY STIRLING FAN!!!!! :D

      Yay! I'm glad you liked it! :D

      Awwww! Thank you so so much Lost! This comment officially made my day! ,:)

      Also, I can assure you that you are so much more than "just you". Trust me, you are awesome in a ton of ways, and one of those is writing! Don't get discouraged, because, honestly, your Jamaasian High story is one of the best I've ever read! :D

      *Reply to the P.S. part of the comment*
      Oh yeah! I read them, and I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AND NOW I AM WAY TOO EXCITED FOR MY OWN GOOD ABOUT THE NEXT CHAPTERS! XDD!
      (I would say I'm delirious or something, and that's why I'm so crazy... but I'm not. XDD!)

    2. I think her's is Frostyblush.. idk XDD

      Delete
    3. I'll find out soon enough XDD

      Delete
    4. You're so welcome, Swirl!! :D
      XD

      As Sarah said, my main pet is Frostyblush. XD It might change someday but for now, it's her. I just hope people don't think I picked a penguin because it's cold in Canada (which it is in SOME places but not everywhere. :P)

      XDD Some things just take a while to get right. Like, I am drawing a masterpiece that I separated into four parts using the line thingie and IT TOOK FOREVER TO GET IT RIGHT! XD
      Ah yes, I really like some songs. My favorite (and basically the only ones I listen to... XD): "Run", "Lil' Something", and "Peter Pan." (I know, of course I love a song named Peter Pan. XD) I think they are all by a band called EXO... I think... XD
      (Ah, I know about K-pop cuz of Koolest's friend IRL. :P)
      YESSSSSS!!! XD This sounds super weird but one of her song's called "Swag" always makes me think of Aparri or his intro or SOMETHING! O,O It's so weird. XD
      I really love Lindsey Stirling. XD

      I LOVED ITTTTTTTTT!!!!! XD

      Aw, really? :D I'm happy to do that! ^.^

      Aww, thank you so much, Swirl! ^.^ I guess I accidently compare myself and then... yeah. XD Comparing your art/stories to others is the worst. But thank youuuuuuuu, that means a lot! ^.^

      XDDD YOU'RE SO SWEET, THANK YOUUUUUU!!! XD AND NOW I CAN'T WAIT TO READ YOUR CHAPTERS AND EEEEK, I DON'T WANT JM TO BE OVERRRRRR!!!! :OOO It feels close to over... XDDDD NUUU!!! *sobs forever* XD
      (Hehe, you're not crazy, your crazy amazing. XDD)

    5. :D

      Oh, okay! Thanks for telling me; I'll get to work on the Masterpiece! :D
      (I also made you another little piece of art! Nothing too great or anything, but still. :P I don't want it getting lost in the mail again, so I'll keep it for ya, and next time I see you, you'll be getting quite a lot of art. XDD!)

      Yesssss, simple things like lines seem to be the hardest to get right on Animal Jam, huh?
      Ooooh! All those sound like good songs! :o
      XDD, swag DOES sound like Aparri!
      YEEEEY LINDSEY STIRLINGGGG! I was very obsessed with this collab-sorta song she had, "Something Wild", so I listened to it for, like, a week. XDD!

      XD, yay!

      Same here! I love making people happy. :)

      No problem! :D
      Hey, I feel the same way sometimes. Like, when I compare my art to people like Nymphaeaalba (OH MY GOSH I SPELLED IT CORRECTLY ON MY FIRST TRY!! WOOO!), I feel like mine could be made by her in 2 minutes.
      The point is, though, if you love making art and writing, keep it up! :D

      I knowww, I don't want it to end eitherrrr! Jamaasian Middle is so fun to write, and it kinda takes me into this whole new fantasy world, you know? But I guess it DOES have to have an ending one day.
      Don't worry, though: when I'm done with JM, I'll be posting some more fanfictions I've been wanting to post on here (including Larry The Bunny's story, XD)! Might even make a story blog sometime... :D
      (And awww, thank yoooou! ,:D)

    6. Waitttt, YOU HAVE MADE ME MORE ART?!!! O,O
      *is hyperventilating because I haven't made Swirl any masterpieces except her wolf and that one was AWFUL*
      *also is hyperventilating because I am getting more awesome Swirl art*
      AHHHH, I GOTTA DRAW YOU A MASTERPIECE NOW, EEEEEEEEK!!!! :OOOOO
      Honestly. I have wanted to draw you something for a while and now I MUST DO ITTTTT!!! :o

      Yessss. XD Cuz if you don't do it PERFECTLY straight, it's a little jagged. :P
      THEY ARE, YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO THEM! XDDD
      It does. Honestly, it does. XD
      YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!!! I love her songs. XD OOOO, "Something Wild" is good. It was in the new version of "Pete's Dragon." :D

      Sammmmmme. XD Making people happy is fun. :D

      OH YES, SAMEEEE!! O.O Like, literally every time I see her art, I just sit there and am like, "What the hay, how did she draw this?!" o.o (ALSO, CONGRATS ON SPELLING IT!!!! :D)
      Yup, that is true. :D

      Truuuue. It's an amazing story but I think that if you try to make it last forever, it'll lose some of it's goodness, ya know? So, just end it whenever you feel like, I'll be sad but at least I can read more of your stories. ^.^
      (YESS, LARRY THE BUNNY!!! :OOO) And that'd be amazing!!
      (You're welllllcommmmeee!! :D)

      Delete
    7. XD! Yeah, I made you some for fun! :D
      I think you also gave me the Animal Jam Jumble one, and the Huggle Ninja Sheep one! Also, THE WOLF ONE IS AWESOME!!!! I always try and put it up in my dens, XD!
      Oooh, really? I'm looking forward to seeing it!
      *Bounces in place*
      Is it done yet?
      XDD! Just kidding, take your time!

      Yup, and it's also SUPER HARD to make them perfectly straight. :P
      IMMA LOOK THEM UP LATER, XD!
      This just proves that Aparri is the new definition of swag. XDD!
      Yeah! I haven't seen Pete's Dragon yet, but I found the song, and now I really want to watch it... XDD!

      Yesssssssssss, XD!

      Right? I don't know how she does it! (And YAYYYYYYYYY!!! XD!)

      Yeah, I know what you mean! Honestly, that's why I don't want to make it last forever. I'll just run out of ideas and it won't be exciting anymore. I do love writing it, though! :D
      LARRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! XD!

    8. Oh, that is so kind of you!! :D
      Ohhh, right! XD And what?! You think it's awesome?! o,o That's very kind of you but... I kinda don't like it... The nose... XD
      XDD I STILL NEED TO START IT!!
      *tries to plan what to draw*
      XDD Heh, I'll try to finish it sometime soon...

      YESSSSSS! XDDD
      YOU MUSTTT! Actually, you don't but still! You SHOULD! XD
      I know. XD I actually showed my brother an Aparri video (He's always saying how much he hates Aparri even though he hasn't seen any video/blog post/ by Aparri... XD) and he found it "meh" I think. But I still feel accomplished that I showed him an AJ video. XD
      Oh, it was a cute movie!! :D You should watch it. :) ("Something Wild" is in the credits... That's it... o,o)

      XDDD

      I KNOW!! I honestly do NOT get it. XD (XDDD)

      Yeah, I get that. I will probably feel super sad when I finish JH (I have no idea how long it will last... XD Probably a long time.) but I don't wanna drag it along. And I love reading JM! :D
      LARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYY!!!!!! XD

    9. Of course I do! I love ittt! :D
      And XD, you can take your time! :)

      XDD, I probably will anyway.
      Welcome to ze worlddd of AJ YouTubers, Lost's brotherrr! XDD!
      HOW COME ALL THE SUPER-GOOD MOVIE SONGS ARE IN THE CREDITS!? ):L

      I think some artists, like Snowyclaw, have programs that work on AJ and can zoom in or whatever so they can add tiny details. Still, though, I wonder how long it takes...!

      NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
      JH SHALL LIVE
      BECAUSE I LOVE IT
      AND IT IS ON A CLIFFHANGER
      AND I REAAAAAALLLY WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENS
      XXDD! Don't feel rushed by me, though! Plus, this way, I'll be even more excited when the next chapter comes out! :D

      :O
      LARRY NEEDS A THEME SONG OR SOMETHING

  5. I'm writing my AJ Fan Fiction in a masterpiece XD It will take a looong time, going to try to get as many words in the masterpiece as possible, and keep going, making it a masterpiece once I run out of room, and then starting a new one, where the other one left off :P
    (in case you are wondering it is this one XD)

      Me: *sues the person who made Wikipedia*
      You guys: Again, how do you know who made Wikipedia?
      Me: *sues AJHQ*
      You guys: WHY ARE YOU SUING AJHQ?!
      Me: Because they made the game! And if they hadn't made the game, there wouldn't be that wiki and if there the wiki hadn't been there, I wouldn't have to sue anyone!
      You guys: That isn't the right way to do it...

      Computer: No you're not!
      You: Yes... I'm typing a comment on a blog!
      Computer: Oh. Well... um... those don't count anymore! ):L

      XDD, I dunno why I love doing these skit-thingys (if they aren't intros, I have no idea what to call them, XD!)!

      Delete
    9. Same, Swirl, same. XD

      XD You must tell me her reaction!

      LOL! I love your skits! XD

      Seriously, that typing program keeps having reminders pop-up. Like, I'm playing AJ and a pop-up comes and says something about getting off the computer because it is probably hurting your eyes or something. And I am like "COMPUTER, I LITERALLY JUST GOT ON! IT WAS SOMEONE ELSE WHO WAS ON FOR AN HOUR AND THEN LET ME PLAY!" XDDD

      Ehhh, I'd call them skits. :P

      *randomly hears a weird sound coming from outside*

      O.O It sounded like a tribal call... Kind of... XDDDD

      I'm an odd bird.
      You guys: *snickers* She thinks she's a bird!
      Me: What?! No, it's an expression!
      You guys: Mhmmm. *smirks*
      Me: FINE! I'm an odd FAIRY!
      You guys: *rolls around on the ground, laughing*
      Me: WHAT NOW?!
      You guys: SHE THINKS SHE'S A FAIRY!!!! *laughs*

      *Goes off to tell sis*
      Okay, this was how it went:

      Me: Hey *insert my sister's name here* ! Just so you know, tomorrow, I'm going off to sue the world!
      Sister: What does that mean?
      Me: Like, instead of suing a business, I'm gonna sue the world!
      Sister: Okay. You have fun with that.
      Me: Okay, I will!

      XDDD!

      Yeeeey! I love how so many bloggers use my Swirlshine-intros now, XD!

      XD!
      Wait, it gives you pop-ups to get off the computer after a long time?
      :o
      I probably need that, because I stare at this computer for hours playing AJ and Roblox and blogging... XDD!
      Okay, but, you know, I get up and stuff to get food and drinks and stuff...
      Okay, I think you get the point. XD!

      XD! Same, since I don't know what else they'd be called.

      XDD, that randomly reminded me of some weird frog that was croaking really oddly last night while I was trying to sleep. I dunno why... XD!

      But you ARE a fairy! A LOSTfairy!
      Haha, see what I did there?
      You Guys: ...
      Me: Because Lostfairy is her username, and... and-
      You Guys: WE GET IT SWIRL.

    Also the llama is amazing.

    **twiddles thumbs**
    So... What to do as I wait for episode 2?

    Why, BUILD A SHRINE, OF COURSE
    ((if anyone reading this has any pig items since they were removed from stores, please tell me if you can gift them or want me to trade for them))

    Oh boi I just remembered HOW MUCH HOMEWORK I HAVE.
