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.
first!
ReplyDeleteSecond! I was just completing a picture to submit for Spirit Art, when this came up! XD I could've gotten in this time...
ReplyDeleteThis was my drawing.
I am REALLY frustrated right now because the pen is in the drawing vv and that is the ONLY copy I have!
ReplyDeletekey :D
ReplyDelete3rd!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! :D
ReplyDeleteWow! That is awesome! :D
ReplyDeleteAAWWWEEESSOOOMMEE!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could submit. :(
ReplyDeleteBy 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.
Thanks! It took, like, a year to do it though...
ReplyDeleteThank you! :3
ReplyDelete*sees the word skittles*
ReplyDeleteWhere can I buy this?!
Congratties! *hands cake*
ReplyDelete-wishing it was real-
ReplyDeleteUH... mars...?

ReplyDelete-Steals cake from random change of command reception and gives to Summerflair-
ReplyDeleteawe this dragon is so cute ^u^
ReplyDeleteIm thinking about sending my artwork... but i don't think it's good enough to be in one of Shadow's posts. Shud i send one in the comment section?
ReplyDeleteAll art is awesome : D
ReplyDeleteIn some way it's awesome i guess, but mine are generally bad. XP
ReplyDeleteno my art is bad i can only draw some Pokemon and my MLP oc and other things :'D i suck at humans and animals and everything
ReplyDeleteSnowy are you Here?
ReplyDeleteNeed to tell Snowyclaw something :(
ReplyDeleteI draw foxes,wolves and cats only. :T
ReplyDelete(i suck at humans too yey)
I once attempted to draw one and ew.

ReplyDeleteCool art! :D
ReplyDeleteI keep trying to draw my animal jam fox but I keep failing :(
ReplyDeleteD: try drawing fennekin she is a fox so u could practice with her : D
ReplyDeleteSnow, is Tiger ok?
ReplyDeleteBirthday kids
ReplyDeletewhy 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
What's wrong with them getting free stuff..?
ReplyDeleteEh
ReplyDeleteI'm only good at traditional artwort
http://orig09.deviantart.net/f9f5/f/2015/129/7/9/hetalia_japan_by_hungergamesrock19375-d8srdn6.jpg
Very cool. :3
ReplyDeleteVery interesting insight. Agreed!
ReplyDeleteFoxes are hard to do, I'm only good at arctic wolves, wolves and bunnies.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! The head is a bit small though, but I love the idea!
ReplyDeleteYuy! Thank chu! *hands some of the cake I gave @Summerflair to you*
ReplyDeleteOkie!
ReplyDelete*grabs spacheship and flies to Mars*
WE'RE GOING ON A TRIP
IN A FAVOURITE ROCKET SHIP
ZOOMING THROUGH THE SKY
LITTLE EINSTEIN!
because that's not the point of a birthday.
ReplyDeleteIs glitched Nerd Glasses and red, black and grey non-solid Top Hat worth a silver Spiked Collar?
ReplyDeleteAwesome! ^.^
ReplyDeleteI like the eyes.
(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.
ReplyDeleteOkay, never mind, I traded it, and they sent me a pink Worn to make up. XD It probably wasn't fair, but whatever :P
ReplyDeleteOoh! Transformice! I was just playing that. ^.^
ReplyDeleteYes! Agreed!
ReplyDeleteActually, I never watched that when I was kid...
ReplyDeleteI'm like the only person who doesn't play Transformice or has an interest in it.
ReplyDeleteMe neither. I just know the song.
ReplyDeleteI’ve lost interest in it’s players. -.- The community is extremely immature.
ReplyDeleteI know this much:
ReplyDeleteYou're a mouse.
You get the cheese.
You escape some stuff.
Yus yus.
ReplyDeleteAnd there's shamans, but Idk what they do. I hear they build bridges or something..
ReplyDeleteYeah, they do, and balloons and boxes and things.
ReplyDeleteOh. Cool. I never really played because it's like getting dumped into another 'Animal Jam.'
ReplyDeleteTy
ReplyDeleteThe 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.
ReplyDeleteWelcome.
ReplyDeleteAJS 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.
ReplyDeleteFew comments?
ReplyDeleteAnd 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!
ReplyDeleteAny art is good enough to be in Shadow’s posts. ^.^
ReplyDelete(unless it’s inappropriate).
I wish I could send in art, but I don’t have an email.
Sigh. With very limited rules, (or no rules at all), anarchy reigns. ;(
ReplyDeleteI've only sent in one piece of artwork: the wolf/arctic wolf/fox/whatever you want it to be below.
ReplyDeleteOh. Okay.
ReplyDeleteYup. The bad and good thing about us is that we stop at nothing.
ReplyDeleteNothing at all.
ReplyDeleteExcept for when there is cake at the side of the road.
Bye!
ReplyDeletePerseverance: Good or Bad?
ReplyDeletebai bai ):

ReplyDeleteNeether or naither? (These are how to pronounce it, say it out loud and you'll see what I mean)

ReplyDeleteneether i think
ReplyDeleteIs this a new author?
ReplyDeleteBoth I think someone look it up on dictionary. Com
ReplyDeleteYou should have not traded the black top hat
ReplyDeleteyey!

My username is TigerClaw50114.
I would prefer a blue, green and magenta, or pink headdress but any color works.
Sorry if that was spammy..
That's a OVERRTTRADEE A silver spike is probably ONLY worth a bad worn.
ReplyDeleteI think the screen shot is from the new den in the diamond shop? I think it was the beach house one?
ReplyDeleteThese 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 ^^

Interesting that you said that today: tomorrow is my birthday. I totally agree with that quote!
ReplyDeleteIs the feather/markings a Transformice referance?
ReplyDeleteI agree. I just end up blocking most people.
ReplyDeleteno. im a girl and i dont have eyelashes on my animal,
ReplyDeletei sometimes use hearts but i dont wear purple, SOMETIMES pink.
nope
ReplyDeletenope XP
ReplyDeleteYes, 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.
ReplyDeleteUh... Brick walls a rare viking helmet? I can change or add if you want
ReplyDeleteThat was an over trade... Silver spiked collars are worth a few rare item Mondays but not that much
ReplyDeleteIt's Nyeyether or Neyether.
ReplyDeleteI'll send this in when I can be bothered lol (I said this 4 months ago)
ReplyDeleteThis blog is not the same without Tigerly tbh.
ReplyDeleteI really do not like this new commenting settings, you know many have left?
ReplyDeleteIs Snowyclaw even here? Our comments will take like 10 hours to be approved because she is always busy.
ReplyDeleteI met Tigerlypaws In real life And I RAPED her hard In the Bushes LOL
ReplyDelete''Everyone should be thereself and feel happy about their body and looks'' ~ Tigerlypaws
ReplyDeleteSays the fatty who wears 100 buckets of make up and feels the need to bash skinny women and make them turn fat to be her friend or have her 'bass'.
Illuminati confirmed
ReplyDelete:Hits in face with cake:
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday
HEY GUYS! Okay, well! Great post and the beginning suits since it's only May, gargh
ReplyDeleteFIRST 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!
I only have a Rare one, sorry, and also it's about AJ and on the topic so I doubt it's spamming! x
ReplyDeleteWow
ReplyDeleteHmm, 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.
ReplyDeleteI care...
ReplyDeleteI didn't say anything was wrong with it...
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteWow! Umm, I would do except I have 400/400 inventory items :D you should be able to buy more with gems!
ReplyDeleteXDD We care!
ReplyDeleteOf course it's the den XDD I thought he was joking...
ReplyDeleteAND OMG IT'S LUCYKATE651 I am your biggest fan!
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.
ReplyDeleteNAITHER? Nobody says that. NOBODY.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's NEETHER.
Silver Spikes are barely worth ANYTHING so it's most definitely an overtrade, don't do that scam!
ReplyDeleteAshleydaflower is one of the best celebs because she sends you beards and worns every month for free, sometimes Rare Spikes too.
ReplyDeleteSweet, wanna see some of mine sometime? I am sorta shy about it though.
ReplyDeleteThey are cute chibi eyes
ReplyDeleteI want Heelys for my birthday
ReplyDelete#MissingThePoint
Sure why not
ReplyDeleteDo you have a DA
That's where mine are
I know I was just saying, hehe, I care lots about AJS so comments are worthwhile if we are a shared community <3
ReplyDeleteOh
ReplyDeleteKthen
Deviant? Nah. I have a polka-dot sketchpad which is better :p
ReplyDeleteAh
ReplyDeleteBye :)
ReplyDeleteI hate how everyone is addicted to pixels animal jam used to be a game where everyone was happy now everyone is scamming it makes me sad.
ReplyDeleteSayonara
ReplyDeleteAww
ReplyDeleteI have a silver spike and I traded a dark blue fox hat for it :l
ReplyDeleteI love it hunger!!!
ReplyDeleteDey look like England's eyes
ReplyDeleteYay!!!!
ReplyDeleteTy
ReplyDeleteOh XD I don't know if it was a joke or not, still worth a guess?
ReplyDeleteHey! :D
I'm flattered! Thank you C:
if you say it with an american southern accent it is naither.
ReplyDeleteYe :3
ReplyDeleteThank you very much ^^ I appreciate it :D
ReplyDeleteHuh? Cool!
ReplyDeleteIt did a bit, but I hosted a party and someone called me a he, and when I said I'm a girl, 3 people there where just like "I know bruh" And I'm like, YESSSS.
ReplyDeleteOkie. Good. I have a rare one too, but I really want a blue and white nr one.
ReplyDeleteAwesome artwork! I luv the gif :D
ReplyDeleteWhy? Is it because of the triangle in the a?
ReplyDeleteHmm, meh I prefer some others
ReplyDeleteLawl
ReplyDeleteI have never heard anyone say that. What do Southern Americans sound like?
ReplyDeletenice
ReplyDeleteI will trade mostly anything, i was offering a rare spike but i traded it and so i will offer anything i have but one item
ReplyDeleteMy posts leave everyone speechless 83
ReplyDeletelol I'll set up the art contest sometime soon...
ReplyDeletelook it up on youtube :3
ReplyDeleteOh 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
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteThe 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:
:3
ReplyDeleteShadow is a girl
ReplyDeleteSORRY. Jeez, how am I meant to know?!
ReplyDeleteWarrior Catz is awesome, i always imagended Longtail would look like that white cat with the black tips.
ReplyDelete
