Description Mmiri - "Hey Lesotho! Lesotho Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Lesotho! Hey! 

Lesotho - "Yyyyyyyes Mmiri??? 

Mmiri - "How was that Wallow? Was it nice an relaxing after I left?" 

Lesotho - "Why yes, it was. I took a nice nap, then got hungry an' here I am now at my tree. 

Mmiri - "Oh very nice! ................. You wanna hear a joke?" 

Lesotho - "Uhhhh, sure.

Mmiri - "You wanna know why you're so tough?......You got thick skin!" 

Lesotho - "Ehhhhhh......I've heard better. Like this one for that matter: How come Springboks aren't part Chicken? 

Mmiri - "Ummm, I don't know, why? 

Lesotho - "Because they BOK in the name! HEHehAaEHEHHEHE HEHEhE EH!" 

Mmiri - "AhA! AHAhAHAAHAHAhAHAHAhAhAHAHAhH! BOK BOK BOKAW! AHAHAHAAHahaHAAHAH" 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAH! 

I haven't drawn Lesotho in a while so I did! 

This is what I assume Mmiri was doing while Nuk, Salma, Zika and Kekere were checking out a weird eye-thing in one of my previous arts. 

This takes place a little while after Mmiri jumps into one of the Mud wallows that Lesotho happened to be lounging in. 
She came back just to ask her friend how it was and then told some jokes to one another. 
This shows that Lesotho is not always annoyed around Mmiri.

This artwork looks quite colourful and vibrant as well as full of personality and character. You have used the colour pencils very effectively they bring the vibrancy and personality to this artwork. The characters in this drawing are well designed and are able to express their emotions through facial and body language. The tones of lighting and shading are also pretty well done and brings a little more depth to the drawing which is very good. To be honest, I reckon that you would make a very good children's book illustrator since the artwork is quite colourful and full of lovely characters. Keep up the amazing work mate e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

Thank you very much for the Critique, Omega! 
You really think so? Actually a lot of people have told me the same thing about making my own book for children. I've been sort of considering it for the future! 
Thank you again!

Lesotho is based off of a Southern White Rhinoceros.
They have very wide upper lips to help them graze grass, as apposed to the Black Rhino which has a pointed, prehensile upper lip that helps it browse bushes and small trees.

wow. that's pretty cool, I didn't know that rhinos could be black or white. I always thought they were gray.

The names actually have nothing to do with their natural coloration. 

The White Rhino was discovered by the German first, and gave them the name "Vite Rhino". "Vite" is the German word for "Wide", hence the Rhino's wide upper lip that helps it graze. 
Then when the English herd of the Rhino's name, the misheard what it really was and thought it was "White Rhino". And so to this day we have the name White Rhino, as a misheard pronunciation of the original German name. 

With the Black Rhinos, they are called so for the kind of ashy, dark colored mud they love to wallow in. Giving them a much darker appearance than that of the White Rhino.

Haha xD poor Lesotho. Those jokes... That girl knows how to tell them though x3 
We really need to find someone to voice her. Although it does remind me of a time when me and some old friends went swimming and I said something in a sassy black woman accent xD it was quite hilarious how random it was, but also how hard I failed at it.

Anywho, nice job on this Ian ^.^
also, sorry I haven't come back to the stream. My internet keeps getting choppy and is having a hard time loading pages. I think it's just that there's too many people using it at once. So.. Hopefully after someone moves out, or me and Jamie move out it'll help.

It's quite alright. The internet works in mysterious ways. Hopefully you it can be resolved soon, ya!

Thanks Moon! 
They do actually, ya! 
Well, not too long. It's painstaking finding the right colors and getting them right. But it's pretty easy actually. 
It's getting the right lighting and the picture taking that can take sort of a long time as well, for I want everything to look as good as possible.

Huh, what kind of colored pencils do you use anywho? Mine could never look that good! XD

OH WHO WON THE POLLS?! WHO'S HORN IS BETTER?!

TheFriendlyElephant In reply to MoonOfSouls [2016-01-14 20:14:53 +0000 UTC]

I primarily use the Prismacolor brand. The colors from them are so bright and vibrant, that other brands can't seem to compare. 

Welp, the results are.........24 for Sabe and 18 for Mooncatcher. 
Sorry buddy, I guess Sabe has the best horns in the land! Better luck next time!

MoonOfSouls In reply to TheFriendlyElephant [2016-01-14 20:48:47 +0000 UTC]

Oh that explains it, I don't have Primsacolor. @~@

Wait! I saw TheFluffyMoogle 's poll before she lost her Core membership! Moon was in the lead! So it's a tie! They're horns are equally matched! ;u;

Well, then I guess we both win, huh? Let's make a celebratory toast to a win win and a no no to fighting over who has the better horns, because in the end it doesn't matter, friends matter and uh........uh.........yeah! Let's go with that!

Haha yeah, you need Prismacolors xD I love them. I recommend either watercolor colored pencils, or their soft-cored colored pencils.
