I thought you guys might want to see the final
mine weren't pulled out, they were cut out of my jaw ^.^

I have a few friends who had to have that done. That's why I thank Zeus that I don't have any.

That's what she said. I know. I'm right here.
Oh thank gawd. I thought I was the only one. But I have 25 teeth.

Yeah, four of mine were cut out too. I was a pretty hot mess. Two of them had plans to to come out really high up in my gum. Like tusks! I'm very grateful that my parents were able and willing to pay the boatload of money it took to defreakify me.
That's funny to me for two reasons. 1. I had all my dentistry done in Mexico, where's it's something like 90% cheaper. 2. It's because of a few botched cavity fillings (as said, done in Mexico) that 3 of my molars got infected and had to be pulled.

Hahahahahahaha!
Not all of us are privileged enough to have a Mexican dentist hook up.
That reminds me of my aunt though. She refuses to see American doctors because thinks Colombians ones are "politer" and she's kind of insane.
Seriously, a couple hundred bucks below the Rio Grande is totally enough to rebuild yourself. But yeah, you may die in the process.
MExico is also the place of choice to get those medically unnecessary amputations you've wanted a ll your life.
This is why we can't have nice things.
You guys think you had bad teeth, when I was a kid I had extra teeth like a shark.
T hat's hot.
This is why we can't have nice things.
You must look forward to Shark Week all year long.
Who doesn't?
This is why we can't have nice things.
Indeed.
That's a valid point.
This is porn to me.

I have issues.
This is why we can't have nice things.
But is has no teeth. A teethless shark.
Issues.
This is why we can't have nice things.
i see
I bet if sharks knew what was going on they would be pissed there's a whole black history month but only a shark week.

I live every week like it's Shark Week.
Then how come you put it up here 
Skydoll is Kenzie's dad!
Show us your super, amazing, much better than kenzie's art, Skydoll!

I have 28 teeth and never developed any wisdom teeth. They just aren't there, like anywhere.
Kenzie, how old are you again? If your dad's such an asshole and he really said that to you, you should stop being low self esteemy smurf and valuing his opinion so highly, most especially at the exclusion of all others. You can't see it now, but that's totally dumb. You could grow up to be fucked in the head with a string of failed relationships with the wrong men for the wrong reasons or maybe an angry lesbian and if people think you have a shitty, angsty attitude now...man, watch out.
Nice drawing, though. I like it and I'm not one to look at art like this and have any expectation of anatomical correctness. Too many teeth? I mean, come on. It's not exactly anatomically correct to have a butterfly/moth fused to your bones, either. Also, skulls don't grow on trees, dumbasses.
This is why I love when Alecia's around!
My dad is one of the smartest people I know he also used to be an artist till they found a tumor in his neck which paralyzed his right arm now he can't draw or even write his own name.
So that's why I value my dad's opinion over others I guess.
and sorry I'm such a Debbie Downer all the time.
Geez. Well I think he's probably just bitter that he can't draw anymore.
Sorry, I know the situation must be hard for your family. But what he said is not exactly constructive criticism, he was just being a jerk.
It is good, he could have made suggestions on how to make it better.
Maybe it's the content of the picture that bothers him.
I don't think so it's just difficult to impress him. My mom on the other hand, I can go out and pick flowers from a field and she'll put them in a vase and tell all her friends about it.
Your Mum sounds nice.
I like your mom too.
Sorry about your dad. But it does sound like he's holding a grudge.
Let our opinion matter! We have fine taste.
Nah, you just sound like a robot.
Also listen to Alecia, she said what I couldn't. Don't listen to the people nitpicking at the teeth. That Smartazdude has OCD, and the rest have an obsession with counting stuff. I think you have quite the talent and you'll only get better. Tell your dad to fuck off(Not really but sometimes it feels good pretending you did) and keep doing what you enjoy doing for yourself. If someone doesn't buy it don't get discouraged. I'm pretty sure most culties here would buy a few of the pieces you posted, I know I would.
Well at the competition I got $300 today so I'm content.
Whoo hoo!!!!!! Way to go!
That's awesome, Kenzie. Well done. 
if that doesn't boost your confidence even a little, I don't know what will
That's awesome. Congrats Kenzie.
Well she did say se was content - which is probably +5 from where she was before.
I still think she's a robot

ha
Thanks and I guess I'm the epitome of an angsty teen.
Oh, teen angst, how I did dislike thee .
Stop lying Fano.
I like my angst fully grown.
Have you been introduced yet to fully grown?
This is why we can't have nice things.



I've 24 teeth. The others were yanked out before getting braces because they're huge and don't fit inside my mouth.
That's what she said. I know. I'm right here.
