Creation
The first attempt at building Jenny took place around (407,1378), just next to the r/Drama cat, shortly after the canvas was expanded for the final time. This attempt only got as far as the pigtails and top of her head before being abandoned, due to pushback from other users around the area and some streamer art appearing just below the build site.
Shortly thereafter, Jenny's build suite was moved to her second and final location, with members of the MLaaTR fanbase taking the opportunity to use a space that had been previously cleared out by xQc's black-and-yellow void, just below the southern branch of the Green Lattice. Construction began from the bottom of her head with little resistance.
Throughout her existence, there were several minor changes done to improve the artwork such as adding some hearts, slight change on her lower part of her head (as of related tweak on her torso), adding her hand holding the Tetris artwork below her, and recolor on one of the heart with trans colors (as she is also related to the trans community, albeit wasn't a big one). One singular user proposed the idea to have an alliance with the Tetris community right below Jenny which is why she is holding the Tetris artwork.
Conflict
Early on, there was a mild struggle for space with the neighboring communities of Good Pizza, Great Pizza and University of Alabama (r/rolltide). Diplomacy was soon achieved, however, and Jenny then shared a border with the two of them, with GPGP even shifting one pixel to the left to avoid conflict with the side of her head.
The art of Jenny was originally planned to potentially include her full body, but not long after work began on her head, members of the Tetris community took a place just below, making expansion difficult. Some members made a futile attempt to expand into their territory regardless, which was met by quick resistance.
Eventually, an alliance was formed with the Tetris community, and plans were drafted on how to integrate the two artworks. One idea was to have her body "behind" the Tetris art, thus having her legs continue underneath it, as well has having her hands hold the Tetris art from either side. Due to various other art below Tetris making it difficult to expand without conflict, this idea was scrapped in favor of simply having one hand holding the Tetris art from above, which remained until very near the end.
After several hours within, Jenny was partially damaged due to Bratishkinoff's Giant Derpy which was earlier located nearby before deleted by color void then the creation of FC Barcelona emblem, the MLaaTR Fanbase members managed to recover the work that is lost from the incident.
Nearing the whiteout/The Great Erase, Jenny, along with GPGP and University of Alabama were wiped of by Mexican streamer named aldo_geo. Adding gasoline to the fire, he also mocked the MLaaTR community with his egoistic tweet,[1] which didn't end well with his art only lasting a couple minutes.
Final Result
Sadly, Jenny Wakeman didn't make it to the definitive image of r/place. However, she will be available on r/thefinalclean edition.
