HOH. Guess how many days it took to finish this monstrosity?
Eh.. Umm. I forgot.
I started on it when the anniversary-event was published though! _{I think. My memory's evil. o^o}
*Checks the date on her sketch that she uploaded to Stash*
... 4 days? NEW RECORD FOR ME. Usually I get tired of an idea if I work on it for that long. XD
And note that I really didn't do anything else besides slept during that time, thank goodness for having no school nor summerjob~.

This is also the reason why I've not replied to the notes as quickly as usual and not drawn those Tumblr-answers for Lulla. |DD

But I think it was worth it? I hope I didn't butcher anyone's character~.
This is indeed my entry for that mini contest -thing. _{Even if I really hate contests. Hehe. Oh well, the idea was so awesome I had to do something!}

Soooo, one year of PKMC? Only one year? It feels like I'd been here and known you guys forever! But so it is, one year. And may I say, all of us have grown so much, especially in art~, ne? I know I can't dear to even look at the drawings I made back when I had just joined. _{And same goes for my English and storytelling abilities.} I bet I would not have gotten this far without DA's RP-groups, and surprise surprise, PKMC is the one I fell in love with the most! _{Sorry for ranting, I bet there will be a looot more, LoL, so much to say.}
All the fun events, kind people, amazing concept and may I say.. I love the PG-13 limit. |DD _{Seriously, in many other group chats people always get a bit too friendly to my tastes. *Chaste* But enough of that.}

It's been a great trip so far~. It's inspiring to look at people's works now and see how they've gotten so much better in such a short time. _{*Looks to especially Rothie and jwater* >u>}
Let's keep this train rolling for another year, yeees? Let's see what the second year has in store for us~. I know I'm nowhere closed to being bored with Pokémon Crossing~.
Especially since AC:3DS is just behind the corner!

Oh, and about the picture here, I wanted to feature as many of the characters that Lulla had met as possible in one picture. There was a few more that I would have liked to include but.. As you can see, it's a bit crowded already! 29 characters!
Oh, and the positions of the characters.. Well, it's not EXACTLY in order of who's closes to Lulla, I was originally gonna have Hope be next to Lulla, because heck, she's almost like a sister to him~. But when I sketched the head.. It decided to be Nicki instead and I was just like: "Okay, fine, be Nicki.
(And also if that was the case, then Olivia should be closer than that, BUT the little thundermice had to be on the front row as well because they were so tiny. xD ) But there is a small seed of truth in these place too, new acquitances are mostly further away while closer friends are mostly more to the front. ouo *Rambleramble*
Just wow.. Never have I drawn this many characters on one picture before. @u@'
But I love group pictures even if they're a pain in the butt to draw~. All the characters having fun!

I think that's all for now, better not ramble too much again.
Happy B-day to PKMC! And everyone.. Stay awesome~.
