    Pens, Paper, Paints, Hand drawn CJ Group

    This group is for hand drawn art, paper, paints, pens, oil pastels, and pencils of your choice. It is not for stickers, rubber stamping, embelishments, digital or photography.

    What is a Circle Journal?

    As a participant, you are required to
    --check in with your Journal Group at least once a week
    --report to group when you will be away from net or out of town and where you stand on spreads at that time (VERY Important)
    --report when pages are mailed (it is suggested that you photograph the stamped envelope containing the page with the recipient's address for verification of mailing)
    --report when you receive a spread and from whom
    --notify the group and your partner if you cannot mail on time
    --notify your next trading partner, if you fall behind, not to create or mail a page for you until you are caught up.
    ~~ Be prepare for postage costs of mailing large envelopes each month and possibly around the world. ~~

    Note: If you do not post to your group thread or to a Group Host for more than two (2) weeks, the Group Host may report you to the Moderators and your membership in the Circle Journals will go on suspension. Your name will be taken off the rotation and pages will not be sent to you. NO EXCEPTIONS. We expect active participation in all the groups.

    ~~ I plan to follow these rules. Communication is VERY important and I would prefer you not join if you are not typically active in the forum. ~~

    * Delivery Confirmation Numbers (for USA) on packages are no longer mandatory for page spreads, but if you do use them, post the # in the group thread.

    LOL I spent a long time looking at Mrs Alderman's and Locke's characters. With my internet it takes forever! Then I started to print some for referance and I ran out of ink

    But I guess it is ok I just remembered I have to draw a Purple people eater chunky before I get too far into this. Almost forgot about tht trade.

    Aw :3 My characters are very special to me...and many of them I don't post and I don't know why! I have so much random unfinished art x_x

    I'm so excited!

    I definatly know what I'm donig for Lemurkat's! My favorite book is The cladi Journal's Series by Tanith Lee (wolf Tower, wolf star, wolf queen and wolf wing!)

    and I have many ideas for Evailia's already too!

    Locke you can always put some in your gallery here. I don't now if you have the paid membership but you get a whole lot more message and gallery space with it. And I think it's something like $20 for a whole year.

    Also to both of you with characters you want used it might be fun to give a little profile story about each if they have particular personality traits you would like to include.

    I have some ideas and I am thinking of using Illia.

    I still need to form my ideas better for Mrs Aldermans characters but I am most drawn to jester and Lemya.

    Illia has a rediculous story that a friend of mine and I came up with when I was in highschool.

    She was a space 'pirate' (a.k.a junk collector) who owned her own small ship. When she was trailing a strange message one day she found a bunch of debris around a planet she'd never seen before and had her ship grab what looked like a broken escape pod. When she brought it into the ship there was a huge man inside but he was part armadillo. His name was Maximus and his entire civilization was destroyed by a shark alien race. Maximus's armadillo 'shell' on his back had been badly damaged and she helped repair it with metal working much like her eye. (Her eye behind the visor is blind, but she can see through an opening in the visor when it does open.)

    Together they travel around trying to gather a resistance to fight back at the shark people.

    *is weird*

    That is really cool. The image I am thinking of is to have her inside something like the inside of a computer, a mother board or some such. Have her rescuing someone (maybe Van) Who is sealed into a clear cylinder tube, and have some sort of grimlins here and there since I know my computer is full of them.

    XD sounds fun Locke!!

    Jester has two careers, a circus performer by day and a master thief by night. shes a contortionist, tightrope walker and not afraid of heights, ect ect. bright patterns and circus apparel in the day, stealthy clothes at night XD. her time period is early Victorian ages. (i've yet to draw regular apparel, but there is a short comic of her in stealth mode and a gob in circus wear)

    Lemya is a student in an under water academy and she just graduated to be the sea folk's traverser. she gets to be one of the few to leave the ocean/sea and explore Thera (a very strange mixed up planet) and come back with storys and books to tell the underwater folk. i have two pages of that comic done so far.

    Attachment 83266 Here is my line drawing for Mrs Alderman, I will add more detail as I go. I hope you don't mind me putting the girls in swimsuits? I know that tree has a really funky straight branch. I had it inked to far before I really focused on it. I am sorry, just hope the other stuff draws the eye away...

    Now I really need to go worky on that Purple People Eater chnky page. LOL

    Yes I think I noticed a shark look to her teacher? Maybe he is from the same planet that Illia and Maximus are fighting.

    thats soo cool Linda!! thank you! they all look so cute in their suits , i love how Jester is swinging in the tree and how Lemya connects the pages together ^U^!! Luna looks adorable too. your tree looks fine, i cant draw trees very well (which is funny for a horticulturist...)
    yea hes a shark XD. the dean of the school is a regular mermaid and her classmates are various fish types.
    ooh they could totally be from the same planet if its okay!
    all of my characters intertwine through Thera somehow, it is truly a strange and very very large planet. there's floating islands and a comic book country and its really just a spew of things put together onto one planet XD. it would be fun to connect other artists comics and stories to it!!

    Ohh i have a story like that...but instead of one big planet there's one but the gods split it into 5 alternate worlds that share the same space...Like invisible barriers that block us from seeing or feeling people in the same space as out own...and when you die you move on to the next world but since we're somehow kind of the same people we are drawn to the same places which is why in one world we'd see ghosts...like the energy left behind of one person in the world interacting through the barrier or trying to touch that person through it..

    Aw, it's okay. I really don't have a lot of time to focus on arts stuff right now any way
    Maybe I'll try to jump in on a later one.
