I was chattin with :iconsennd: and I needed to do something artsy-fartsy but very loose and not like what I normally do. So I told her to draw a random squiggle and send it to me and see if I could turn it into something.

Some of you may have played this game as a kid. I used it more as an idea base rather than actually having to continue the drawing ON that line. Squiggle game is much more interesting when your a more mature artist. I quite like how they came out. All turned out to be animals. XD It's hard to do people with Squiggles if your not much of a cartoonist.

All the Original squiggles are next to the pics, I rotated them, but that's all.

All done without refs, all off the top of my head, but I did fix up a few anatomy issues after the initial doodles once I got color refs.

All just messy doodles but I figured you guys might like too see them. Maybe you can try it too. it's a fun game.

Try it yourself;

I remember these! My newspaper used to run these in the comics section when I was a kid, along with a weekly essay contest that centered on a theme. When I was in elementary school we were assigned the essay thing once a month, but we got extra credit if we entered that week's squiggle contest. Winning essays and artwork were awarded points that we could later cash in for books.

God, I got nostalgic there...

This would be a fun meme if someone pulled it off.

Ah, lovely! I'm amazed at your horse without ref. This would make a great meme, by the way. It would be cool to see what other people would create with those squiggles.

This is a really cool idea. I never got to play that game as a kid, but it looks fun. Now to find someone to draw me squiggles! :D

Coulzie, can I ask you a bit of advice? Someone on facebook has uploaded a ton of my art and is pretending they're Sun Rei and have been roleplaying her. Maybe to some people, it may not seem like a big deal, but its my first major art/character theft. Normally its only a picture or a couple that I find somewhere, but this is 4 accounts totaling way over 60 pictures. I've reported them and am sort of waiting to see what happens.

But my question is, how do you deal with it? I feel so hurt someone would steal Sun Rei - she is my special creation and has been one of the only things that has helped me through years of hardships. Now I feel like I don't even want to draw. Like I never want to upload another thing of her, or of any other thing I've drawn. What do I do now? :(

They did the same thing to me, The took my furson and Krueger, turned me into a gay, emo, gothic, boy. I just reported them as a scam, it was down in a day or so.

And yeah it kinda feels like being raped almost... it's really weird. It made me almost wanna take down all my lions stuff that's still up cause I'm like over being associated with it. But you know what man, she is yours. Everyone knows that, and just because someone was stupid and just happened to pic her doesn't mean that all the things she stands for are gone, that person was just not an artist and decided to rip of someone, not really anyone in perticular, it just happened to be you. But you keep Sunny who she is, no matter what others draw or do. So just keep doing what you do and let this little thing pass.

Thank you, Coulzie. It honestly got me so down when I saw it all last night. After everything that's happened to me, at least I had that part that was still untouched. Now it kind of feels like I don't have anything. They also started uploading Treydan too, which really sucks.

I really appreciate you replying to me - you cheered me up and made me feel a lot better. When it first happened, I just didn't see how I could draw anymore. It really hurt me a lot. But you've given me a nice nudge back to where I was - I'm Sunny after all. How could I still call myself that if I let this get me down?

Thank you dear. It really means a lot to me. :tighthug::glomp:
