Well, I finally done my part with the Art-Trade with Haiz

I'm practicing (is that even a Word? I dunno) new poses so... this one is a Little bit weird, also, tomorrow probably I won't be online too much time (school and stuff).
Anyways, I hope you like it ^w^

That's cool!  Is it the yoga Tree Pose?  In some religious/spiritual traditions body poses are important conduits for calling on particular powers/moods, so I could see a creative seiđr practitioner like Haiz trying yoga (or the Icelandic-pagan equivalent).

Thanks!
And, yes it is, is a yoga pose. I think, like you said, it's the tree. I have to ask my mother because she practices reiki and it's pretty similar to yoga.
Also, because she's a mage, she probably would do that (at least, that's what I think).

(Yeah, it is a word)
The pose looks pretty good, actually! I think you've got a good handle on it.

I agree. I would totally be down with humans all having hooves or something on our arms. With thumbs I guess, to hold the pen?

Amorphous blobs are the only correct answer to the evil of hands. Only problem is, with enough time, we'd start automatically over-analyzing those blobs, and would have to figure out how to make them "look right"... seeing something so often makes it absurdly hard to draw, strangely.

I resisted, but the mighty power of Windfighter and Lars_B's evil enabling have caused me to create a character. Basically me, but different. Janni Tähtivaara, Finnish skald/mage. She lives in Mora currently. I figure she is from Keuruu, but then moved to Mora for further studies. I believe she is into biology, specifically with animals, and has a strong interest in feline communication. I have her in Finnish and Swedish clothes, since she probably needs to blend in a bit more when living there, but keeps her Finnish clothes (and kantele and puukko) for field wear.



Janni Tähtivaara
Age: 25
Nationality: Finn
Area of birth: Keuruu
Gender: Female
Immunity: Yes
Profession: Skald, Mage
Languages: Finnish, Swedish, Icelandic

Wow, nobody's made a new oc in a while! Anyway, the Infodump has been duly updated with your character (who looks great by the way - I love both her Finnish and Swedish uniforms, they're very unique!).

I vote completely armless. We'd draw with our feet, natch.

I just went through the infodump and saw something that needed correction. Ilmari is a scout by trade. I realize that I didn't put that in the original bio I wrote up, and just went into things he was interested in, so he got put down as a cook.

READY TO WHACK TROLLS WITH THE GLORIOUS APPLE PICKER

I hope you like it ^_________^ and i hope it feels enough, after all the backgroundstuffs you did.... wow.... also i have no idea what hair colour so I just gave you the norwegianest hair colour I could think of

She looks beautiful :D I've never seen an apple picker before, but food collection tool and weapon in one sounds brilliant!

I really like this thread. I have a bad habit of skimming through posts, but not here. This thread is so happy and I love it. :)

Haiz: those drawings of everyone are so cute! I'm joining the they-all-look-unique club.

Starfallz: I wanted to compliment you on how legible your handwriting is. I don't know many people with handwriting that great - either it's chicken scratch or pretty but impossible to decipher.

*raises hand* me.
Unless I'm trying really hard, my handwriting devolves into this half-cursive mess, with all kinds of weird swirls and things sticking out. I should post a picture of my notes somewhere on here at some point, it's kinda ridiculous.

Ohhh, is *that* what it is.  I wondered if it was a lacrosse stick.  Well, in y90, probably Mikkel is the only one who's even heard of lacrosse, and all the sticks were long ago turned into apple pickers (kind of like beating your swords into plowshares...)

Mine's not even pretty; when I take notes in pen it's atrocious. I can write whole sentences with one line, and it's not even cursive so it just looks like a mess, eheh.
