First time I saw The Fellowship of the Ring, I was torn between thinking these guys were scary or just plain cool. This pose is one of the defining ones for the Ringwraiths.

Hey, you're very good at it, so whatever. It takes mad skills to copy things well. I'm more that kind of artist myself, cause I just don't have the skills yet to be origional, so for now a lot of my stuff copies other picies or artist's styles (like kazuya minekura).
It's so much fun. Lately I've been drawing more Sanzo pictures for my best friend, cause she love that dumb monk, just like you (don't get me wrong, I love him too, I just love my pervy watersprite better). I drew a sanzo pic on one of my breaks at work that had sanzo surrounded by the words "Just die! It's a perfectly natural thing to do." I put it up on the billboard in the breakroom in another piece of paper for my friend, but somehow it fell out and my boss saw it and thought my friend was getting death threats! Ha ha Good thing it didn't have my name on it (well it did, but written in elvish, which my human boss can't read), so I didn't get in trouble, but I just thought that was hilarious. Sanzo fans will appreciate that one. Hehehe...

Oh, don't worry, I don't mean anything bad by "Dumb Monk" I mean, I call my baby a "pervy water sprite." You're right, though, I'd better be careful, or he might "accidently" shoot me like he does to my beloved Gojyo.
Hey, LOTR weapons and stuff are way cool. Good place to start. I'd be lying if I didn't say that LOTR was what inspired my to become a better artist and go to art school. So, ~blumarine convinced you to draw people? I'm guessing that first attempt didn't make it up on deviant art. Oh well, you have greatly improved and I must say that you draw very yummy looking bishounen.
Awww, you sound like Goku, drawn to Sanzo by his beautiful golden hair. He is definatly the best looking (and worst tempered) monk I've ever seen. I just love how he looks as Konzen. Something about the long hair... I told you I have a long hair fettish.
Good idea, i'm going to go pounce on my water sprite

Awww, it can't be all that bad. You should see some of my first art... shudders. Not a pretty site. I did not grasp the concept of 3 dementions, so all my people were flat. guess it prepared me for drawing anime art. Ah, some things are just ment to be.
Hey, so are you a Legolas fan too, like ~blumarine, or just a LOTR fan in general?

Ah, it's so nice to see how far we've come as artists... and hopefully laugh about how cr@ppy we used to be...
Oh good, another Legolas fan. Ya, my mouth dropped when I first saw him dismount off that horse in fellowship... and I've been inlove ever since. I've actually seen each movie 9 times in the theatre, if you can believe that. I actually just sent ~blumarine some Orlando piccies from an old people magazine, so hopefully she'll share. I guess US magazines are pretty expencive in Malaysia, so I'll probably be scanning her a lot of stuff, and you too now. See, I work at Barnes and Noble bookstore, so I get discounts on magazines and stuff, so I have tones of Lotr magazines and books and stuff. I love that Weapons and Warfare book. It is so cool. The different art books for each movie are beautiful too. Let me know if you ever want any scans. The costume and weapon designs are just devine.
Ya, I haven't had the chance to do much Lotr art lately since I became so anime crazy, but I will be doing something soon... so just you wait... I have a brilliant idea, and no time to draw it!

9 times??? Oh yeah I can believe that allrite....I have a friend who went to watch Return of the King for...around 20+ times...if I've not mistaken....kekeke......nahh...not me....can't afford the cinema tix....am currently waiting for the extended version to come out.
Barnes and Noble eh?? Cool....imported magazines here can be really pricey......
~blumarine sharing? She better share or else I'm gonna shoot her with Sanzo's shoureiju...ekekeke......nahhh...joking. ...yeepp n/p...I'll ask her that later....take a peek and drool...

Oh ya, I've had lots of those "Aka drawing classes"... tried that at work once, though, and got written up for doodling... that was stupid, it was barely a doodle... oh well, if I'm going to get in trouble for something, it would be drawing. I'm pretty much a good girl...on the outside!
Movie theatres... so evil they're trying to send the world back into a depression, I swear...evil corporations...grrrrrrr...ya, I have issues with them. Piracy! Yay, I love pirates, especially Captain Jack "Where's the rum gone?" Sparrow. J/k, piracy of movie is not good, although the movie theatres are just asking for it.... wow, there I go again
Must stop now....ahhhh, ok, think of happy thoughts, like hot Saiyuki boys at the beach.... which reminds me I need to draw something for the ClubSaiyuki contest...ok, off to work, I've been inspired!
