Steph: I promised anime and I'm going to deliver, check out this page!... Oh my gosh.. I couldn't do profile views!
Both: Hi Art Friends!
Steph: I hope youre excited to look through some of my old sketchbooks! Adam: It's time for an anime adventure!
Steph: Yeah, These are all from my "Anime Years"
Adam: How long ago was this?.. Steph: This is my actual art folder that I used to use in my art class
Adam: If any of you are still in school doing art do you still use these?
Adam: I bet you still use these!
Steph: Come to think of it this probably has my old GCSE work in it
Adam: Oh Cool! Steph: And for people who aren't English, GCSEs are like our end of year school exams you do when you are 16
Adam: It's like when you leave High School, kind of!
Steph: So without futher a do I promised anime and I'm going to deliver, check out this page!... Oh my gosh.. I couldn't do profile views!
Adam: He's like: "Kawaii Desu!" *Grunts*
Steph: I just couldnt do teeth or lips! Adam: "Ehehe!"
Steph: From a side profile... *Laughs*
Adam: Considering how young you were, these are pretty good! I couldn't do these!
Adam: I love that one! "Hurraaaaay! I'm on the wall!"
Steph: Look how tiny her little hands are!
Adam: So shes not jumping for joy she is like, "HELP, I HAVE TINY HANDS"
Steph: Look at all the eyelashes! Adam:...Whoa
Steph: You know I think I remember with this one.. I drew that eye and I was happy with it and then I had to put the second one in *laughs*
Steph: At least I drew the second eye! Kudos to me!
Adam: Ehehe, EHEHE
Steph: Have you seen these expressions? I'm sure there used to be an anime drawing tutorial website?..
Steph: Oh my gosh! I have just remembered! Adam: What did you remember?!
Steph: We had to pick a country to theme our end of year exam around
Steph: I think I picked Japan.. Adam:... That would make sense!
Steph: And I was watching so much Mark Crilley at the time! Adam: No way!!
Steph: And he was advertising that Micky Falls manga at the time!
Adam: So Mark Crilley has been helping you for like, a decade!
Steph: Yeah seriously! I have been watching Mark Crilley videos since I was 15, 16!
Adam: YOU THE MAN MARK
Adam: Whoa Steph: And he still makes videos! That's crazy! Adam: Everybody knows who Mark Crilley is!
Steph: Oh.. I spent ages on the background on this Adam: You have perspective going on and everything!
Steph: There is quite a lot of reasearch involved in this as well
Steph: We had to do a bunch of observational stuff much to my dismay because I really just wanted to focus on the anime!
Adam: "I wanted to be an anime artist!"
Steph: And this was when I was going through my emo-goth phase Adam: Is that an emo rat?
**The most emotional music ever**
Steph: Yeah ;__; And I have got all of my gothic make up!
Adam: Where are you going rat? Rat: I'm on my way to The Black Parade!
Steph: There is the wrist band that I used to wear! Adam: Oh yeah *laughs*
Steph: This was supposed to be an observational peice of a Coca Cola can
Steph: You had to do just like... a portion of it?
Adam: Why is school art class so weird like that?!
Steph: Then I have got one where of a Cola Can! Adam: Oooh! When I was in school we had to do a crushed can that's like another staple of art class in this country!
Steph: I dont even like fizzy drinks or cola but these I can vouch for!
Steph: *GASP* I don't think they even put dream chocolates in uhm... Heroes? Adam: They still do those but they're not round any more they are half ones!
Adam: We're getting so distracted talking about the size of chocolate! *laughs* Steph: It shows its age!!
Steph: That used to be my keychain because It said Stephanie on it! Adam: That's cute!!
Steph: And everyone always used to buy me that same keychain for birthdays and Christmas because it had my name on!
Adam: So you used to have loads of them?! Steph: I had like 3 all with my name on!
Steph: Oh Fruits Basket!
Adam: Oh wow it is Fruits Basket! Steph: And I have done a written piece about Manga! *laughs*
Adam: Can we have a quick look? Steph: I cant vouch if any of that is true because I cannot remember writing it!
Adam: "I'm just making stuff up!" Steph: Look it's me as a Pokémon Trainer!
Adam: Wow.. t-that is one... lean Bellsprout
Steph: One day we should redraw ourselves as Pokémon Trainers!
Adam: If you wanna see that guys, comment and let us know! :D Steph: That would be really fun
Adam: You have to redraw lean Bellsprout! Steph: *Laughs*
Steph: And a Staryu and Togepi!
Adam: Is he implaed on his head all: AHHHH!!
Steph: There are such random peices next to each other like me as a Pokémon Trainer, then a drawing of a leemur teddy that I had...
Adam: He's kinda, staring into my soul here...
Steph: In school everyone used to say i looked like a leemur because I have really big eyes... Adam: What?!
Steph: *Laughs* Adam: Isn't school just the best!
Adam: What was the first anime that you ever seen?
Steph: It was probably Fruits Basket I think?... Because one of my friends linked it to me!
Adam: Mine was, Tenchi Muyo! Steph: I have never even heard of that one!
Adam: I was back when Toonami used to be on Cartoon Network years ago!
Adam: Comment down below guys what was the first anime that you ever watched? Steph: Yeah! Do you remember what your first anime was?
Adam: Whoa it has changed again, what is this?! Steph: This is a classic example of a one eyed character that I just covered with a fringe!
Adam: it's funny how in previous Doodle Date's we've talked about how we have all done this and you've done it too!
Steph: And this one, I have stapled this over that because I probably didn't like the eye?
Steph: So I thought you know what, that looks like a stronger eye!
Steph: He looks angry!
*Eeeeghhhhh"
Steph: I think some of these drawings were copied off the Internet! Like this one Adam: The Castle?
Adam: Okay.. what is hiding underneath there? Steph:.. I think it's a pig getting her hair done?! Adam: *laughs*
Adam: Art class is so weird..
Steph: Oh here is some observations animal stuff because I have always really liked animals! Adam: Oh cool!
Adam: Oh! It's like realism! Steph: I used to draw a lot of birds! I just noticed because as you know I draw a lot of birds and this dates back to when I was 13 or something!
Adam: Is that like a bear? A Teddy Bear?
Steph: I think these are drawings of things that people got me for my birthday? And I included my watch in it
Steph: It was a little watch that I got from Claires Adam: Claires Accessories? haha
Steph: And I wore it every day throughout Year 9 and then eventually it turned my wrist green *laughs*
Adam: Uh oh Steph: It started to smell weird so I stopped wearing it haha!
Adam: It made me diseased!
Steph: Oh I got really fed up on this page... It was a very observational one
Steph: This was meant to be a drawing of my Nana's garden and I just couldn't do it and I got so frustrated!
Steph: So in the end I was just going KEKEKEKEKE Adam: I can see the rage in this piece!
Steph: And here is where we are getting into my anime rabbits going Gothic!
Adam: Oh nice! Steph: Prepare yourselves there is going to be a lot of this guys!
Steph: I had 3 characters and they had this little voodoo bear and i used to draw them all over my MySpace Layout and stuff Adam: Oh wow
Steph: I have tonnes of digital art of these as well I have kept hold of it all!
Adam: "Sometimes you just cant hide, that you're being torn inside"
Steph: Oh! This is a copy of a Chinese wave or Japanese Wave?...
Adam: Oh I see yeah it's inspired but that one! That one is very famous
Steph: I think I will have my final GCSE artwork in here somewhere Adam: Oh awesome!!
Adam: Are you okay there?... Steph: I did rabbit Egyptians.. What was I thinking?!
Adam: Cleopatra, Pass the carrots!
Steph: I recently did an Egyptian study as well! Adam: Yeah you did! Steph: It was for a zine that I was a part of!
Adam: Look at all these bunnys!
Adam: I had no idea you were this intro rabbits.. Steph: Oooh yeah you were missing out!
Steph: It was all I used to draw! Adam: I was missing out on the rabbit trend?!
Steph: Look at that fiery pig! Adam: my pig is on fire
Steph: That was her name! Adam: Kira... Kiseki? Steph: I didn't even know how to pronounce it to be honest!
Adam: What you got there? Is that a mixtape? It IS a mixtape!
Adam: "Those songs that once made me smile, are now the ones that make me cry..." Aww it's gonna be okay!
Steph: All of my artwork was very emotional Adam: It was very emotional and you were very deep back then what happened? Steph: no anymore! *Laughs*
Steph: Oh! Mermaids!
Adam: Mermay has been recently so it fits!
Steph: I have something to share about this piece because this piece has a bit of a story behind it... Adam: Oh dear...
Steph: So! One of my friends Melissa, I talk to her quite a lot on Instagram you might of seen me plug her work a few times...
Steph: I used to sit next to Melissa in art class all the time, and she was watching me work on this - and Melissa was way better at drawing than the rest of us!
Steph: She understood realism and we were just really far away from the point she was at.. Adam: From Mount Melissa
Steph: So I was working on this and Melissa looked over... and she looks at this first and said "That's a really good fish!"
Adam: This is the fish in question.. Steph: Yes please take in this fish!! I was so proud of this fish because it has Melissa's blessing!
Steph: And Melissa was the art god of our school! Adam: *laughs*
Adam: You have been blessed by Melissa! Steph: and recently I was talking to her and i was like, you know what?...
Steph:.. I am STILL proud of that fish because she complimented it all that time ago and she said "Oh, I cant remember it..." Adam: WOT
Steph: And I was like: URGHH HOW CAN YOU NOT REMEMBER MY FISH?!?!
Steph: So I dug it out of my cupboard and took a picture of it and send the whole piece over to her Adam: This whole thing...
Steph: And I was like "Look! it's THE FISH you like, you like this fish!"
Steph: But she didn't like the fish but she liked the crab!
Steph: I was like: COME ON!! *laughs*
Adam: He reminds me of.. he is shaped kinda of like pasta shells?...I kinda like him!
Steph: But I am so horrified that she doesn't like the fish anymore and she likes the crab ;__;
Steph: She never even mentioned the crab when i shown it to her when I was 16!!
Adam: The moral of the story is, Melissa sort yourself out that is a good fish! Steph: Yeah!! *laughs*
Steph: And also at the time my art teacher was getting really angry with me when I was doing this piece... Because he said I wasnt put enough shadows into my work
Steph: And.. I didn't know how to make shadows, if you can see I want over it a million times Adam: Oh yeah yeah!
Steph: I was literally using the yellow paint at its full intensity to try and get the darkest colour out of it and then with the green too
Steph: But i didn't realize that you could just mix it with a darker blue to get a darker shade...
Steph: HE NEVER TAUGHT ME THAT HE JUST TOLD ME THAT I WAS DOING IT WRONG!!
Adam: NEEDS MORE SHADOWS
Steph: But hoooooow?! T___T
Steph: Oh! there is that Pucca character! And we had to do a bunch of master studies of.. Oh gosh I forgot the name of the famous Pop Artist!
Adam: Very famous yeah, I recognize the style!
Adam: "I know how you must feel Braaaad..."
Steph: And then we have this wonderful anime rabbit underneath this pop art master study! *laughs*
Adam: Shiori having a few Mojitos!
Steph: Here was have some Christmas rabbits!
Adam: I love how they are all themed haha!
Steph: We have been to ancient Egypt, Japan...
Adam: Rabbits, Through the Ages!
Adam: What the heck is going on there?! What is that turkey doing?..
Steph: He's got voodoo bear on him! Adam: He is being ridden by a voodoo bear?!
Adam: Oh wow Powerpuff Girls!
Steph: Oh.. was it that?... Adam: What have you found?...
Adam: What is going on here?..
Adam: What.. whoa okay.. uhm....
Adam: It's some kind of cryptic message!... I...
Steph: It says, "I'm sorry for all the mistakes that I make with you, so let's just close out eyes and pretend this didn't happen"
Steph:... Not a Rabbit.
Steph: That might be my face on a rabbit! HAHAHA
Adam: No matter how many rabbits you draw, you will never be a rabbit... Steph: Maybe that is what I was upset about!
Steph: And we have the Powerpuff Girls to lighten the mood.. Adam: "That'll cheer me up!"
Adam: Rosie Land?...
Steph: Ooooh this is going back!
Steph: So when I was really young, this is primary school back when I was 5-9?
Steph: I created this place called Rosie Land and it was this imaginary world where there was trolls and stuff...
Steph: And you had to jump on a grate to get into Rosie Land, and these are all things that would happen there
Adam: Can you read the middle for me?
Steph: oh no.. Adam: That's what you get when you enter Rosie Land! Pazazz! Steph: That is really showing its age!
Steph: Oh! It's even included "The Hamster Game!"
Steph: In the imaginary world if you poured hot water over yourself you would turn into as hamster and the other person would have to be an old lady that would have to care for the hamster... *laughs*
Adam: You must have a pension and be over the ages of 70!
Steph: Here is a mouse looking at a Babybell moon! That's a type of cheese over here
Adam: What does it say? You art was so deep back then!
Adam: Moon moon in the night, Moon moon what a fright, Moon moon if you please, Moon moon made of cheese.
Adam: And what are you sat on? Another Cola can! Steph: And a Fruit shoot or something! I like Fruit shoots!
Steph: Over here we have a very chalky piece Adam: Oh yeah I didnt even notice that!
Steph:.... Another Rabbit in case you couldn't guess... Adam: Surprise! A rabbit!
Steph: This is a princess Rabbit, and a frog Adam: He's like, kiss meh!
Adam: If a princess rabbit, kisses a frog... What does the frog turn into?
Steph: A... handsome prince?... Rabbit?
Adam: Some frog rabbit hybrid?
Adam: Whoa what is he?! He reminds me of the heart out of Adventure Time! Steph: Oh yeah he does look a bit like it!
Steph: This was loooong before then.. Adam: Eat a vegetarian, a vegetarian will eat you?
Steph: Oh! It's because the rabbit wants to eat the apple and now he is going to eat her! haha
Adam: "STAY AWAY FROM MY SON"
Steph: I don't know if he is still a vegetarian if he eats her..
Adam: We are learning a lot about Steph today
Steph: This one is like a comic? Adam: Oh wow okay!
Steph: This girl sees a modelling audition and shes like yay!
Steph: So they're saying pose now! Adam: POSE. NOW. haha
Steph: and then it says "She's in the paper!" and "The winner there she is!"
Steph: haha and she gets a billboard and it says..
Steph: Zuzu! Got constapation? Use Zuzu! Fast relief!.... My bowels feel breezy! HAHAHA
Adam: Wow.. that needs to be a slogan today!
Adam: My bowels, Feel breezy <3
Steph: Everyone is laughing and pointing at her..
Adam: Well she can be like "Well you guys are never gonna be on a constipation billboard" so i would be quite proud of myself!
Steph: You've got to own your successes!
Adam: And having breezy bowels is nothing to be ashamed of!
Steph: Oh its a cybunny! Those are from Neopets! Adam: Oooh?
Adam: Oh yeah there he is!
Steph: We've got some kind of anime raccoon over here... He's a new addition to the family! Adam: "I'm not a rabbit!"
Steph: I think this is a watercolor painting?
Steph: This was copied from something else because it is waaaaay happier than my artwork!
Adam: It's not deep enough! We have to go deeper!
Steph: Have we looked... no we havent looked at this one!
Steph: Okay well, this is an alien attacking Tokyo...
Steph: And, I have put a McDonalds ad up there "Start your Engines"
Adam: Only 99 cents? Steph: Cents!! Because Japan uses those! haha
Steph: Seen his hair? Adam: Is he on fire?!
Steph: No! He is running really fast so his hair is flying backwards!
Adam: I thought he was on fire all "THEY'VE GOT ME"
Steph: I was really into alien invasions back then!
Steph: Oh! This is the preparation for the final exam piece!
Adam: Oh! We have the idea behind the final piece right here!
Adam: Every character should portray a different emotion and have a different hair colour too!? Steph: *laughs*
Adam: This is very important, for my final composition!
Steph: Oh! Here is a study of The Simpsons where I just seemed to give up
Adam: Where is Homer?... Steph: I probably just didn't leave enough space for him looking at it!
Adam: Is this the alternate timeline where Homer dies and then by 1987 Marge is dead as well?
Steph: Oh why does this phase never end!? haha Adam: There is a lot more than I thought there would be!
Steph: That is kind of ironic!
Steph: "Always look on the bright side of life"
Steph: coming from me! Adam: But if you see a rainbow, project it with your gothic umbrella!
Adam: Flash! The camera never lies! Whoa... What is this?...
Adam: She needs to up her selfie game a bit...
Steph: This was like, 14 year old drama and I must of been expressing myself?
Steph: There was a friend at school, and a bunch of my friends found out that someone was cheating on her
Steph: And, they got photos of him doing it!
Adam: Is that why the camera never lies? Steph: Yes!! *laughs*
Adam: This is too dramatic!!
Steph: There is a girl kissing a boy on a boat!
Adam: That is quite romantic! Steph: But I used to sketch so lightly...I pinned this on my wardrobe!
Adam: Really? Steph: Yeah it still has the piece of backing on it! Adam: How old is that?!
Steph: This is a dramatic MySpace entry!
Steph: It's even got a floppy disk in it! Adam: In the CD drive?
Steph: We didn't even use floppy disks back then I just though it would be trendy..
Steph: This was meant to be an observational piece
Steph: There is a self portait! Adam: That is a big one!
Steph: There is my rabbit, of course!
Adam: Vans! Steph: Oh! My blue elephant!
Steph: He is over here! Adam: Grab that elephant!
Steph: Blue elephant has been with me a long time! Adam: A lot of you people wanted to marry him, we were really surprised how many of you want to just offer yourselves to elephant!
Steph: Those were the shoes I used to wear with a cat on the front and a tail around the back
Steph: I do not know why it says "Gettin' lucky in Kentucky" *laughs*
Adam: Was that one of your life goals back then? I'm gonna get lucky in Kentucky?
Adam: Guys if any of you know what that means, if any of you are form Kentucky let us know!
Steph: This is meant to be a self expression piece! but there is a cow over here with a hairdo Adam: Oh that is a very stylish cow!
Steph: There is a heart covered in PVA glue Adam: Oh! because it is being fixed! Very emotional
Steph: Those are my initals, S,H,E
Adam: She gettin' lucky in Kentucky!

Adam: Is there any way you can get lucky there?!
Steph: Here is my GCSE piece! Adam: OH! Is this the final piece?
Steph: Yeah! Every one has different hair colors Adam: They are expressive!
Steph: They were meant to have different emotions but they look like they have the same one
Adam: She is like "I had to dye my hair for you!"
Adam: Is there a rabbit cameo in this somewhere?
Steph: Yup there! Adam: Look at those giant eggs! Look how big those eggs are
Steph: I don't know what is going on over there!
Steph: He is crawling over the hill because he wasn't here in time?...
Steph: Toaster over there!
Steph: It's one of those pictures that you have to keep looking at because different things keep appearing!
Steph: There is a dog that has ran away
Steph: and a sunflower with sunglasses on Adam: That is one cool sunflower
Steph: I think I have even more artwork.. Adam: Look at all this! Steph: So let me know if you're interested in a part 2
