Spirit Artwork #24

Hello, friends. I apologize for the long absence; some stupid germs got to me and I had some major tests going on to boot. I may still be a little inactive, but once summer rolls around I'll be posting more.
What a calming view!
Can you guess where I took this screenshot?
Ahh, how fast spring has passed us by! Now, jammers are bringing out their long since hidden summer items and buying new summer dens. Speaking of which, your buddy has just invited you to a beach party at their new, expensive den. You happily agree to go. 
When you arrive, however, you find that the water is still uncomfortably cold, and the fruit from which the fruit punch was made is still sour. Taking a seat on the blindingly white, plastic flight of stairs, you brood over how jammers tend to try to force seasons into changing before they're ready. As you gaze out onto the small body of shimmering, turquoise water, you notice a glass bottle. Huh. Would you look at that? There seem to be some pieces of paper inside!

A radical piece of art by SuperMarshMellowz. I love how you've included every piece of her outfit. The dark background helps for the character and the text to stand out.

Some lovely fanart of Snowyclaw by Tailsthefox81011! The style in which this is drawn is rather interesting. And I just have to point out that the greenish glow reminds me of those weird blackboards at the doctor's or dentist's office where if you touch them they turn green. Does anyone know what I'm talking about??? xD

A rather interesting type of drawing, depicting a badger, sent in by Dolphinrider8910. The way you drew the character in a square reminds me of AJ's blocky style. It's very unique and recognizable.

A few lovely pieces of brightly-coloured, spring-themed pieces of art sent in by Emily Rose Pika/LightningBluetooth (sorry if I'm getting your username wrong... I wasn't sure what to credit you as.) I love the way the red on the Scarlet Tanager contrasts well with the green background, making it "pop." And that phantom is so adorable! Its limp tentacles and angered eye reflect its annoyance.

To conclude this post, we have some awesome pieces sent in by lucykate651! The first piece is all-around cute, drawn in a chibi style. I love the how the water grows darker as we near the bottom in the second picture: this adds to an atmosphere of foreboding. And finally, we have an animated gif. I love how you've animated the head and tail.


If you'd like to see some of my own artwork, check out my deviantART or my Youtube. If you'd like your art to be featured, please send it to spiritjammer@gmail.com!

    By the way here’s a wyvern. It will bake cookies for you, and it will do your laundry and it will clean you’re house. It will give you skittles every day, and it will rake your yard and it will eat the annoying bugs in your house.

  6. Thanks! It took, like, a year to do it though...

  24. Birthday kids
    why do they think they get free stuff?
    "A birthday is not about being a penny richer, but about being a year older" Because that gift is not something we can all share

    ReplyDelete
  25. What's wrong with them getting free stuff..?

  27. Foxes are hard to do, I'm only good at arctic wolves, wolves and bunnies.

    ReplyDelete
  28. That's great! The head is a bit small though, but I love the idea!

  31. because that's not the point of a birthday.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Is glitched Nerd Glasses and red, black and grey non-solid Top Hat worth a silver Spiked Collar?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Awesome! ^.^
    I like the eyes.

    ReplyDelete
  34. (in my opinion) It wouldn’t be wrong for people to feel nice and give them a gift on their birthday, but it would be wrong for the person to become greedy and selfish because it’s their birthday.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Okay, never mind, I traded it, and they sent me a pink Worn to make up. XD It probably wasn't fair, but whatever :P

    ReplyDelete
  36. Ooh! Transformice! I was just playing that. ^.^

    ReplyDelete
  37. Actually, I never watched that when I was kid...

    ReplyDelete
  38. I'm like the only person who doesn't play Transformice or has an interest in it.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I’ve lost interest in it’s players. -.- The community is extremely immature.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I know this much:
    You're a mouse.
    You get the cheese.
    You escape some stuff.

    ReplyDelete
  41. And there's shamans, but Idk what they do. I hear they build bridges or something..

    ReplyDelete
  42. Yeah, they do, and balloons and boxes and things.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Oh. Cool. I never really played because it's like getting dumped into another 'Animal Jam.'

    ReplyDelete
  44. The problem is, there is no moderation (or at least GOOD moderation) in the speech, so people will say whatever they want to. It gets bad.

    ReplyDelete
  45. AJS recently set up a moderating thing, so all comments are moderated before being shown to the public. Unless you're whitelisted, your comments have to be reviewed by someone before they're posted. It all really slows down commenting, so a few people left because of that.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Few comments?

    ReplyDelete
  47. And people will ALWAYS find a way to say stuff. Can't say this word? Replace it with this word! Add numbers! Change the spelling! Make something that sounds like it! Add dashes and dots!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Any art is good enough to be in Shadow’s posts. ^.^
    (unless it’s inappropriate).
    I wish I could send in art, but I don’t have an email.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Sigh. With very limited rules, (or no rules at all), anarchy reigns. ;(

    ReplyDelete
  50. I've only sent in one piece of artwork: the wolf/arctic wolf/fox/whatever you want it to be below.

    ReplyDelete
  51. Oh. Okay.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Yup. The bad and good thing about us is that we stop at nothing.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Nothing at all.
    Except for when there is cake at the side of the road.

  62. NutterButtersTigerclawMay 9, 2015 at 6:28 PM

    That's a OVERRTTRADEE A silver spike is probably ONLY worth a bad worn.

    ReplyDelete
  63. I think the screen shot is from the new den in the diamond shop? I think it was the beach house one?
    These all look amazing :D

    I like the lineless one by SuperMarshMellowz! To me that is a very cute style ^^


    The one by Tailsthefox81011 is unique to me because of that glow, and yes Shadow I know what you mean .O.



    The badger has a very interesting cube style :D The stars around it make it look fabulous!


    The phantom with the bunny ears looks so annoyed but so cute at the same time :D I would squish those cheeks, if only it wasn't so dangerous to get near .O.
    The bird looks very nice :D I agree with Shadow! The red looks nice with the green :D Complementary colors do complement very well :D


    As always, Shadow you do a fantastic job describing art and an awesome intro :D I forgot to mention in the last Spirit Artwork. I'd like to draw your ladybug C: If you don't mind ^^

  70. Is the feather/markings a Transformice referance?

    ReplyDelete
  71. I agree. I just end up blocking most people.

    ReplyDelete
  72. no. im a girl and i dont have eyelashes on my animal,
    i sometimes use hearts but i dont wear purple, SOMETIMES pink.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Yes, that's a very good trade for one. Not a rare one, but a diamond shop long one. You can't get them on the diamond shop anymore though.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Uh... Brick walls a rare viking helmet? I can change or add if you want

    ReplyDelete
  75. That was an over trade... Silver spiked collars are worth a few rare item Mondays but not that much

    ReplyDelete
  76. It's Nyeyether or Neyether.

  77. I'll send this in when I can be bothered lol (I said this 4 months ago)

    ReplyDelete
  85. HEY GUYS! Okay, well! Great post and the beginning suits since it's only May, gargh
    FIRST piece of artwork - SuperMarshMellowz - I adore the look as if a child has painted it, like Snowyclaw the wolf is a best friend of theirs and they have sent some artwork to commemorate her! Okay, and the stars are to DIE FOR!
    Tailsthefox81011 - fantastic! The greenish glow makes the image pop into mind of a shadow, but perhaps in the jungle or some mossy area? As if Snowyclaw is wild and lives upon some unknown island. It's truly beautiful and I adore the way it's so... DIFFERENT! It makes you think!
    Dolphinrider8910 - cute! The blocky style does remind me of AJ and especially the grey wolf's paws. It's very sweet how it's such a different image, do you hope for badgers to come to Jamaa one day? I think so.
    Emily Rose Pika / Lightning Bluetooth, WOW! The Tanager is gorgeous and the Phantom is hilarious! I love how it looks limp and slightly frustrated, like the owl on The Owl & Co on channel Boomerang. Does anybody else watch the new series?
    AND FINALLY I was waiting for some art from you, lucykate651. You never disappoint! You are my fave artist <3 I especially love the cuteness crossed with chibi anime and EMOTIONS and the simplicity of cub's bliss. The gif is wonderfully created
    CONGRATULATIONS IF YOUR ARTWORK WAS FEATURED!!!! Otherwise, keep trying!

    ReplyDelete
  86. I only have a Rare one, sorry, and also it's about AJ and on the topic so I doubt it's spamming! x

    ReplyDelete
  87. Hmm, it's not weird that there is no pink or purple or hearts since that is a stereotype. Myth can be a girl's name also, but the eyes may confuse people.

    ReplyDelete
  88. HungerTheHetalianMay 10, 2015 at 6:12 AM

    I didn't say anything was wrong with it...

  89. Wow! Umm, I would do except I have 400/400 inventory items :D you should be able to buy more with gems!

    ReplyDelete
  90. XDD We care!

    ReplyDelete
  91. Of course it's the den XDD I thought he was joking...
    AND OMG IT'S LUCYKATE651 I am your biggest fan!

    ReplyDelete
  92. ShadowCharizard used to enter artwork but now is the author! So he only posts on Spirit Artwork pages. But he's rather new, I suppose.

    ReplyDelete
  93. NAITHER? Nobody says that. NOBODY.
    And it's NEETHER.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Silver Spikes are barely worth ANYTHING so it's most definitely an overtrade, don't do that scam!

    ReplyDelete
  95. Ashleydaflower is one of the best celebs because she sends you beards and worns every month for free, sometimes Rare Spikes too.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Sweet, wanna see some of mine sometime? I am sorta shy about it though.

    Oh gosh those last drawings had to be for warriorsXD I love those books and I can tell fan art when I see it! For instance this pic

    ReplyDelete
  123. I am actually not a Warriors fan to be honest ^^' I used to read the books but after the 1st series I kinda quit. Mainly because the story was a bit... Boring? I don't know... I couldn't get into it that much.
    The first one is my fursona Gazini. He is a wolf.
    The second one is Lynol, he's part otter and part lynx.
    The third one is a Warrior OC. I did an art trade with a friend. Well in this case it's an animation trade. ^^
    I have made fan art in the past, but my friends wanted/asked me to do them.
    Looks like the gathering in that picture C:
