Authors for the AJAC have been chosen!

  Heyo, Jammers!  This post is just going to be really quick because I have some art I need to work on but I have to post this first :)

  The initial authors for the Animal Jam Artists Collaboration blog have been chosen.  They are: Purplestarclub, Sarahkey8, Arcticstar8404, Harmonypurr9, Karalee, Sharae16, Crazcatlover, and Swirlshine.  Don't worry if you weren't chosen, though, because new author try-outs will be hosted in the future!

  Thanks so much to those who entered, and if you were not chosen as an author, I still hope that you will read the blog when regular posts begin on July 28th.

Speedart Saturday- Ember Lightninglight!

Me:  Hey!  Guess what day it is?
You:  Um... It's Saturday.
Me:  And you know what that means?
You:  I dunno, it's summer break so I'm out of school anyway...
Me:  ...  IT'S SPEEDART SATURDAY!
You:  Oh.  I thought you took a break from that or somethi-
Me:  I'm taking a break from my break :D
You:  Ok.

  ...The intro says it all.

And here's the art itself!

Giveaway winner + Animal Jam Artists Collaborative!

  Heyo, Jammers!  So, it's Monday, the 10th, which is when I promised I would pick the winner of the red rare short spiked collar that I'm giving away!  I got 23 entries; thanks so much to everyone who entered and for entering your friends as well!  The winner is...




Melodymixer!  Congratulations!  Check your Jam-A-Grams for your prize =D



  In other news, I'm starting a brand-new blog- The Animal Jam Artists Collaborative!  This will be a collaboration blog, with daily posts by Animal Jam artists like myself!  It's currently a WIP, and I'm hosting try-outs for the initial authors!  I want at least 5 initial authors, though I'll host try-outs for new authors every few months.

  Authors don't need to be super great at art; I'm actually more looking for positive Jammers who can post at least once a week/once every 2 weeks.  And lots of different forms of art count; so whether you make traditional drawings, digital drawings, masterpieces or edits, feel free to try out!

  If you're interested in trying out, click here for the Google Forms submission form!  The initial authors will be chosen on July 17th, so enter while you can!

  If you're under the age of 13, ask a parent/guardian for permission before entering!

  If art isn't your thing, though, it'd be greatly appreciated if you spread the word, and told your artistic friends about this project!  If you want to help spread the word, here's an image I made that you can post on your blog:

I might be taking a hiatus from YouTube

  I'll get straight to the point.  Lately, I haven't enjoyed making videos as much as I used to.  It gets frustrating to edit them, and drawing speedart videos with a mouse is more annoying than fun these days.  And I just discovered that I accidentally deleted my speedart folder from my computer.  All my speedart footage is gone- including the footage that was supposed to be for Speedart Saturday.

  Not to mention, my videos get about 50-70 views each, and I'm not really gaining any subscribers.  I don't know if I'm quitting YouTube, but I'm definitely taking a break.  YouTube used to be a lot of fun for me, but now it's more of a frustration.

  I'll continue posting here on my blog, and my G+.

Rare Spiked Collar Giveaway! (CLOSED)

  EDIT:  This giveaway is closed, and the winner has been chosen. (Congrats, Melodymixer!)

  Heyo, Jammers!  I'm back with another post, a post that you will all like very much!  As you already figured out from the title of this post, I'll be giving away a RARE SPIKED COLLAR!

  My buddy Sophiao2020 kindly gifted me this rare short red spiked collar, and since I hardly play AJ anymore, I figured I should give it away!

  All you have to do to enter is comment on this post your Animal Jam username, and the username of one of your buddies that you want to enter as well, and the winner will be chosen randomly on Monday (the 10th).

 Unfortunately, you must be a member to enter so that I can gift you the spike, but if you are non-member, you can just enter 2 member buddies!

  You must keep your Jam-A-Grams open so that I'll be able to gift you the spike if you win- if the winner's Jam-A-Grams are full or closed, I'll have to choose someone else.

  And, yeah!  That's all!  Good luck :)

Crazcat Chats Episode 2 (Part 1)

  So after about forever, I finally made this video.  I took so long because I had to write a script for it and I felt like the script was just drawn out and long...  so I just ignored it for a week or two.  I finally decided to edit the script a bit and cut down on the amount of art and tips featured in this video in order to make it less long and rambly.  I'll feature all of the tips and art, but the ones not featured in this episode will be featured in a future part 2 of this episode.

  Also I discovered a much better quality microphone, so... yay.

  I still need Q&A questions for Speedart Saturday, so it would be really nice if you provide some down in the comments below!

Team Zios Fan-Art

  I drew some Team Zios fan-art!  I don't know when I'll post the speedpaint video for this, but until then, here's the art itself (which took over ten hours of working on it), so here it is.

  I'm in need of Q&A questions, so it'd be really great if you commented down below and asked me a few questions for me to answer in this speedpaint video and other future speedpaint videos :)

Oh Look- It's a Post

  Yeaaaaah, I've sort of lost motivation to post anything here lately-  I haven't even posted last week's episode of Speedart Saturday!  This post is going to be kind of short, but I'd just like to say, I'm still here.

  Me and my good friend Karalee, from the DXplorergirl Blog and The Animal Jam Friendship Community, did a collab with me!!!  It was somewhat complicated to set up, but we managed to do it and it was so much fun to narrate with her!  We're still working on her part of the collab (due to technical difficulties and stuff happening in her life, it may take a while).

  Anyways, here's the art itself-

  I'm not entirely satisfied with the art- I was trying to draw it Chibi-style, but I haven't had much practice drawing Chibi-style yet.

 

  I'm currently working on this week's episode of Speedart Saturday, but here's the sketch!

  As you can tell, it's some Team Zios fan-art!  I've been trying to draw some Team Zios fan-art since this whole contest started- but I guess now it's a celebration that they won.  Yay, Zios!  (Aparri has a fidget spinner.... lol...)

  I'll draw Team Mira as well, eventually XD

  I'm going to go and actually draw this thing- I've spent half an hour writing this post rather than actually drawing.... so... bye

Yeah I made a Peace Love Ninjas edit...
