FemJesse's Stuff!

Very cool pics. I really like the self-portrait one. I really have difficulty drawing non-show characters in a Groening style - the fact that you've done it with real people too and turned them into Groening style characters is especially good.
Nice sunset - even some of the clouds to the left just by Fry and Leela look like they could be hugging each other. 
Though the two things at the top look like shooting eye-balls to be really honest 

[Reply #441 on:]

Will you be able to do some more Bender pictures Jesse?

[Reply #442 on:]

Argh! The sunset pic is way too romantic! *Overloads* That pic is very awesome. Makes me realize how very lonely I really am   

[Reply #443 on:]

I love the sunset pic. Awesomeness.

[Reply #444 on:]

Much thanks Femjesse I don't know about the Amy thing she has always seemed to me to enjoy rubbing it in to leela about how much more girly she is than her "OH so this is where you shop for your boots" she seems to take pleasure in it for some reason. I always thought someday she would push Leela to far and it would be a brawl but I guess we'll never know *sigh*
Once again the bed calls my weary head Good night Femjesse where ever you are. Or should I say good morning? Man it's after 5   

[Reply #445 on:]

Femjesse, that picture of Fry and Leela with the sun set is, just, wonderful.  I think its great that you can take what could be just simple lines and make them into something as beautiful as you do.  I think everything that you've drawn is great, and everytime something new appears, then it's what I have to look at first.  I hope that you continue to draw, or write, or whatever makes you happy.  I think that I and many other members here will always be on the lookout for your new stuff.

hey! awsome stuff! i liked your pics, you did a great job in making your friend in a Groening style you both look really cool in that pic    & the Amy pic is really good but you might want to fix the hair a bit  otherwise its very good.

[Reply #447 on:]

Very clool art again, the pic of you and your friend is neat. And the silhoutte pic is very effective

The loneliness spawns beauty.

Wow, that's so amazing, awesome work. Any more like that, and it might even turn me into a shipper.

Love the sunset [Fry]it's like all the colors of the rainbow, plus some new ones that are so beautiful I fell to me knees and cried.[/Fry]

But the rest is equally good.

I'll check out the Diablo II thing, when I have a few hours for playing, but probably not before the weekend. I like the new synergies they added to skilltrees, too bad they couldn't improve the AI of the valk. I guess wet sawdust only have so many IQ points. 

[Reply #450 on:]

Hrm... Wet Sawdust?  I think you're giving Zon Valkries a little too much credit.
*pulls out a can of insta-valk 'Just add water'*
Then again... maybe not... *tosses it behind her and it bonks a big barb on the head*
Here's a kitty for Paul.  I had the idea to do Amy as a Siamese since she's of asian descent... apparently...

That's a big ball of yarn you have there, Missy...
I did a quick real life drawing.

Let there be music... the sketchbook text for this picture is
"Thank you for the music.  So this is a twentieth century compact disc player?  Its really great.  It sounds much better than mp3s.  There can't be a better song than this... who wrote it?"
"Me."
"You?"
"I wrote it for you!"
"You're so full of shit."
"I swear it!"
"I don't believe you..."
"You never do..."

[Reply #451 on:]

Fantastic work, FemJesse.
I'm a huge fan of your real-life drawings, I'm so glad to see that your making more.
That's one amazing talent you have, FemJesse.

[Reply #452 on:]

^ Second!  That's just some great stuff.  Totally down to earth subject matter too...outstanding.

[Reply #453 on:]

Atticus said it all.

Btw FemJesse: I think you must be telepathic or something. If TLJH3 ever arrives, it’s going to be flamed as a rip-fest... Oops, spoiler!

[Reply #454 on:]

More excelent work the Amy Kitty (AWWW, CUTE) was great. the compact disk snuggly realistic drawing very very nice thank you for more excelent
 now if you'll excuse me I'm going to bash myself in the forehead with a hammer so I can finally fall asleep, G'night

[Reply #455 on:]

Add two more O' wow pictures to the collection of art done by the amazing FJ. I like the second one a bit more than the first, but bolth are awesome.

I also just noticed you and the Voices seem to use similar styles of shading. At least thats based on looking at the two pics you just posted vs the Voices most recent O' wow pic. The main difference being you used colors.

[Reply #456 on:]

The only difference is that he uses ink and crosshatching. I usually go for gradient crosshatching with pencil, because I like the lightness I can get just using a pencil.  For example, when you work with pencil you can't erase the "guide lines" so you just wind up making them a part of the finished picture.
(Look close, they're there)

Farnsworth38: I have been known to move things with my mind... nah.  Seriously though, I have predicted things and good things at that.  Nintendo 'stole' a bunch of Pokémon my friends and I invented... including Kecleon Chameleon, Combusken Chicken, Torchic Chicken, Medicham Psychic, and Absol Disaster-type.
Also, once I got a really bad vibe in art class so I excused myself and went into the bathroom... where my friend was about to jam a shard of the broken bathroom mirror into her wrist.
My mom says claims of ESP are common in Irish people, and I'm about 33% Irish.  So who knows.  Lately I've been having frightening dreams that are more symbolic than anything else...

More awesome pix, I especially like your new real life drawing

Ok I see what you are talking about now thx for pointing it out.

N with regard to your dreams, if you think these dreams have something to do with ESP try sleeping with a wet towel wrapped around your head. Based on some of the things I have heard about ESP this might help block out some of the bad dreams/visions.

I just might have to do a fanfic based on that last Amy picture. 

[Reply #460 on:]

More great work from FJ.  The Siamese/Amy one is cute, sexy, and SCARY - all at the same time.  The second one is great too.  No, I can't see the guide lines; I don't even know which end of the pencil to hold...

[Reply #461 on:]

I really like the pencil one, that is superb. The Amy one is very cute, but quite freaky at the same time 
Though I'd be very interested to see a Kryter-fic about that one! 

[Reply #462 on:]

One time, I dreamed my hermit crab died, and when I woke up, he was dead.    i wonder if I have any irish in me.

FemJesse, you are a genius!

Sure you can!  I'd be interested to read it.  I love Anthros... and Futurama.

[Reply #466 on:]

Thanks! Coming soon: Chapter 1 of "Catastrophe".

[Reply #467 on:]

And there was much rejoicing as Kryten began to write stuff again!

*dies of happy* kittens for everyone!

[Reply #469 on:]

I guess I should post the picture of Fry and Leela as cats, too.  After all, I drew that one first.  Paul is going to color it for me; 'cause I'm a lazy bum. =D

There's something inherently evil about that picture...

[Reply #470 on:]

You mean the very threatening claws? Good work, FJ 

[Reply #471 on:]

That must be it... all of the claws are completely retracted.  Ready for some death killing... or fuzzy killing.  Or bloody yiffing.

Leela: Stay away from my milk, jerk!
Fry:  I just wanted to dip my paw in it and flick it on you to piss you off. *does so*
Leela:  *HISSSSSSSSSSSS*.... AH!  Wet!!

[Reply #472 on:]

Hahaha daaamn thats an awesome drawing Jess!! You are one hell of an artist 

[Reply #473 on:]

Squee....pretty colors and fuzzy aminals!

I should be an art critic. :P

[Reply #474 on:]

People actually LIKE my real life drawings... I'm... so... thrilled...

I've gotten emails along the lines of "You're butchering the characters"  "You've destroyed my imagination" and I clutch my head and go
"No no no!"

But then I get some "Keep it up, you rock, can I host your stuff, emails." and I do a double thumbs up and grin and go
"Yes yes yes!"

Then there are some people who say "I like them in black and white but when you color them it ruins the sketchy and original quality of the work." 

In response to that last thinger, I've been leaving the black and white copies of my work, and making color copies in addition.   (though IMO some have no competition compared to the black and white counterparts... *thinking of Dinner at Elzar's*)

Here's an idea that ponged around the chat room...

Full of original drafty character quality...

She's so purdy... its too bad she never got to be a real teen for very long. 
Freckles!!  Sobakasu!!

Editted because I'm an idiot and got the tags wrong.

[Reply #475 on:]

definitely one of the top 4 (unpaid) artists we have for futurama.  The Voices, Paul, FemJesse and me 
in no particular order, but i'm last
and is it just me, or do we tend to see just the back of cartoon FemJesse? 

[Reply #476 on:]

I've done some paid work...  but not fanart. 
I'm not good enough to sell prints yet.
Commission for "Munch"
Cards that Chan and I use against each other (mine is particularly awesome and unfair):

[Reply #477 on:]

Whatever did happen to Pokemon? No seriously...

I'm not sure about the bottom two, but I love the top Dark Charizard...that's awesome 

[Reply #478 on:]

All very impressive work. Sorry to be opinionated but those people who write and complain are goits!

You see first I really like the sketch and the real-life appearance, then the colouring really compliments it well, in my mind.

Nice kitties pic, looking forward to the coloured version. 

[Reply #479 on:]

wow that pic of teen Leela is real pretty.
