Putting It All Together

I only just started blogging but I already love it. It gives me a chance to give my ideas to everyone who will read.  I’m going to keep this short, but I’m going to keep this short by complimenting blogs I think are great.

The first one is a girl named Sonali.  She is 10 years old, but an excellent writer. One of my favorite post is a poem called “Darkness”.

The Waterfall

Long ago, there lived many different beings ruling over the earth in harmony.  There were the humans, dwarves, elves, and the fairies.  The humans were the most populated of the four, so they were split into kingdoms in order to feed the growing population and mouths.  The dwarves were great craftsman, working in the dark oak forests, the great Copper Canyons, and the Iron Hills.  They were small, stubby people with strong arms that were good for swinging heavy hammers.  The elves were majestic, knowledgeable beings that were the wisest of the four.  There were the Woodland Elves, who lived in the forests of the north, and the River Elves, who settled by the rushing waters of the Moltrat river.  They were tall, angular creatures who had strong limbs making them very fast and nimble.  They were bowmen and prided themselves as the fairest of the four beings.  The fairies were clever trickster who had fun in playing friendly jokes on anyone passing thru.  They are small winged creatures with clothes of nature. They lived in almost any forest making houses out of twigs and perching them in tall trees.

To keep the peace 5 ambassadors from each civilization meet by a small waterfall deep in the forest of the north.  Here they discussed problems and how they can help.  They did this for a peaceful 400 years, but one day all that changed.

The human race became more and more powerful, and soon the kings became corrupt and power hungary.  Less and less than began to neglect their duty to attend the meetings, and the others began to become suspicious and started to prepare for the worst that was about to come.  The humans began to rally and attacking small villages of elves and fairies.  The dwarves were in constant work creating armor and weapons to prepare for war, but when it finally came no one was ready.

Smoke and fire covered the land burning the forest and scorching the ground.  The humans had no mercy as the massacred everything in their path.  The dwarves and elves fought desperately but were driven back as humans took over the world.  The aftermath was as worse as the battle, the Earth was scorched black and the remaining elves, dwarves, and faires were driven into hiding. Today I believe they are living among us fighting to avenge what we did to them many years ago. I have made you aware of this buried story so that you can fight for the survival of our humanity.

The Magical Flower – 100 Word Challenge – Week #27

In galaxy far, far away, on a planet just like Earth there is a patch of flowers and in the middle was a singular Daffodil, but it is the wrong color. This Daffodil was magical flower with special healing powers. Anyone who drank the pollen would be healed of any disease and disability they have instantly.  This flower only grew in this specific spot and only bloomed twice a year, the winter and summer solstices.  You might think it be easy to gain this powerful flower but the patch is guarded by a powerful being. No one knows what it looks like because no one has survived its wrath.

Music With AJ

There is a ton of music that I like, from rap to meme music.  Songs like Mr. Brightside and All The Small Things are older songs that lots of people haven’t even heard, then there are songs on Youtube that should be heard because in my opinion they are amazingly made.

One song that I really enjoy listening is I’m Something Else by SomethingElseYT.  He is a youtuber who makes animations on events he has experienced.  The song describes his experience with people who told him that he wouldn’t accomplish anything in life.  Empty by Jaiden Animations (ft BoyinaBand) is a song that describes her experience with Anorexia.  Anorexia is a eating disorder that affects many people.  I think she is very brave to be able to relive this experience and make it a song.  One more song I enjoy is Don’t Stay in School by BoyinaBand.  It’s a song that explains the flaws in the school education and how they could have taught us some more helpful things rather than something like calculus.

Drawing with AJ

In my All About Me I mentioned that I like to draw, this point is what I will be talking about in this post.  My knowledge of drawing may not be at full scale, or at its height, but I can give some of my techniques on how to begin.

You do not have to have the best materials to start with, as they are important later, you don’t need them at the beginning of your career.  I, personally, use a comic/cartoon style of drawing and so all you need would be a pencil and some fineliner pens.  One of the good substitutes for fineliners are different size sharpie pens, really anything that will make the picture outline and details permanent.

To start a character you should first sketch out many different sketches of different parts of your character’s appearance. Even if you find a design you like you should always continue, you never know if you would like one better than your initial idea.  After your done your sketches you make your good copy.  You want to create a pose that is appealing and suitable with your character, after that you sketch it out on a seperate piece of paper.  Then, after that is done, you take your fineliners and make the picture permanent on the paper.  After that is done it’s time to color your piece.  My go to material is a marker branded Copic.  It is a alcohol based marker that blend really well together.  Now it’s time to show off your piece to EVERYONE.
