Young Writers Society

I spent most of today working on this, although I was thinking about it all last night but didn't have the time (or the brain capacity) to work on it.

Once again, I blame the chick side of me... and I'm starting to wonder about this new obession with drawing gorgeous dresses (both of the last two drawings have girls wearing dresses I would love to own)

The lyrics are from Wishes by Superchic[k] which has become a song very near and dear to me. It was bound to show up on one of these pictures sooner or later. The full lyrics are:

The saddest thing is you could be anything
That you could want
We could have been everything
But now we're not
Now we're not anything at all

The hardest part was getting this close to you
And giving up this dream I built with you
A fairy tale that isn't coming true
You've got some growing up to do

I wish we could have worked things out
I wish I didn't have these doubts
I wish I didn't have to wonder just what you are doing now
I wish I didn't know inside
That it won't work out for you and I
I wish that I could stop this wishing and just say my last good-bye

After all the things you put me through
Tell me why I'm still in love with you
And why am I
Why am I still waiting for your call?

You broke my heart
I'm taking it back from you
I'm taking back the life I gave to you
Life goes on before and after you
I've got some growing up to do

I wish we could have worked things out
I wish I didn't have these doubts
I wish I didn't have to wonder just what you are doing now
I wish I didn't know inside
That it won't work out for you and I
I wish that I could stop this wishing and just say my last good-bye

It's time I said my last good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye
It's time I said my last good-bye

Me likey! Whoa, nostalgia...

*laughs* nostalgia over the phrase "me likey"? *remembers the days back at the YWG* or over something to do with the picture?

And here we have yet another Superchic[k] inspired piece. lol. The lyrics one this one are from "Courage". That particular line probably hit me the hardest off the entire album, which is saying alot since Beauty From Pain was a particularly powerful CD for me.

Full lyrics are:

I told another lie today
And I got through this day
No one saw through my games
I know the right words to say
Like 'I don't feel well'
'I ate before I came'

Then someone tells me how good I look
And for a moment
For a moment I am happy
But when I'm alone
No one hears me cry

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

I don't know the first time I felt
Unbeautiful
The day I chose not to eat
What I do know
Is it changed my life forever
I know I should know better

There are days when I'm okay
And for a moment
For a moment I find hope
But there are days when I'm not okay
And I need your help
So I'm letting go

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

You should know
You're not on your own
These secrets are walls that keep us alone
I don't know when
But I know now
Together we'll make it through somehow

Together we'll make it through somehow

I need you to know
I'm not through the night
Some days I'm still fighting to walk towards the light
I need you to know
That we'll be okay
Together we can make it through another day

Wow! These are all really good! Now you just need to add shading! I love them, maybe you should make some avatars with your work.

Whoa, you are really getting better at this. They looks so real. I like the creases in the clothing. Awesomeness.

Danke danke, both of you. I'm working on figuring out how to do shading on these as we speak. *looks a computer and laughs evilly as she sees it quake in fear at the thought of her trying to do something new* mwahaha...

You really are improving, Dusky. Nice.

I haven't updated this for a while, but I just have to come in here and show off (well, show I'm excited, I suppose would be a better description).

This is one of Bobo's drawing which he was a darling and gave me permission to steal (is is still stealing if you have permission?) and color. And I'm no where near finished yet (still got all the lovely shading to do), but I just love her face, so... lookee!!!

It's called borrowing.

Oh yes! thank you.

Found one of my first superchic[k] themed drawings this morning:

This one is from FROGS AND DOGS

The Full lyrics are:

All princes start as frogs
And all gentlemen as dogs
Just wait til it's plain to see
What we're growing up to be
Cause some frogs will still be frogs
Some dogs will still be frogs
But some boys will become men
Just don't kiss us til then

You hate men
That's what you say
And we all understand
How you feel that way
All girls dream
Of a fairy tale
But what you get's
Like a used car salesman
Trying to conceal what's wrong
Behind a smile and a song
And I'm not saying that boys are not like that

But I think you should know
That some of us will grow

All princes start as frogs
And all gentlemen as dogs
Just wait til it's plain to see
What we're growing up to be
Cause some frogs will still be frogs
Some dogs will still be frogs
But some boys will become men
Just don't kiss us til then

You found him
That's what you say
And we all want you
To feel that way
The frog you've got
Seems cute enough to kiss
And maybe frogs seem like that's all there is
But even if you haven't found your prince yet
It doesn't mean you're still not a princess
And what if your prince
Comes riding in
While you're kissing a frog
What's he gonna think then?

So look into his eyes
Are you a princess or a fly?

All princes start as frogs
And all gentlemen as dogs
Just wait til it's plain to see
What we're growing up to be
Cause some frogs will still be frogs
Some dogs will still be frogs
But some boys will become men
Just don't kiss us til then

I'm excited to see the finished product of your colored version of my pic. It looks amazingly similar to how I imagined it. I mean- the hair is like the exact color of hair I'd do. O_o

:whistle: Catchy I like the picture more though.

I just learned how to use smilys.

So cute! And I love the one of the girl with the sword with the snake like swirl on its as a design. Nice cool colours too!
