Wow I've been gone quite a while lol School and the like had me busy -.-;; However, I'm on summer break now, and figured its the perfect time to start focusing on characters again! I got a couple of ref sheets done (It's only been a few months, but already my style's changed. I ended up completely redrawing the base I'd put down for my dog characters ;o; It's pretty likely the others will face the same fate.)

I've got a couple more dogs who I plan to put on this base (That's all of em!) before I've gotta draw from scratch again. Let me know if anything doesn't fit the requirements! (Also I plan to add text and mini bios to the sheets! I just wanna wait til all the similar ones are done first. I already had an issue with losing the original text & font I'd planned to use, so I'll do that last and all at once lol)

    How many characters do you own? Tier 1
    What challenge(s) will you be attempting?: Every challenge in the Writing and development skills portion and the "Character Keeper" just so that I transfer my characters from their previous weebly site to the new wix one (and track down artists of artwork), and I'll try to order art but I'm not going to commit to specific portions of it (just a goal of ordering any 3 pieces of art for each character)
    Link to the thread, website, sta.sh, etc. where you will be keeping your progress: my wix site
    Any additional questions or information:
    I'm not entering the art category but I do have some artwork of my characters already! I also have some development down too but I want to rewrite and refresh everything that's there already! I'd like to have all my characters developed to the best of my ability by the end of this year. If I don't finish characters they will be put up for trade/gifted. That should encourage me to write more! C:

I'm going to stick a completion log here if that's alright! Coding done by skylark

Edit: Pending re-write. My apologies!

[Tier 2] - 70 Characters


Organizational skills
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
CHARACTER KEEPER - 100%
    July 11, 2017
      I put everyone with a name up on Toyhou.se along with all the art I could find in my art folders. I don't really want to shoot for scanning and upload every drawing I have of them on paper, but I still want to get some art up of the characters I've never drawn digitally.
    July 28, 2017
      I finally got around to organizing this and deciding which characters to stick into my trade folder! I ended up deciding not to count characters who're more of side-characters in my stories. Everything should be in order now uvu


Writing and development skills
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
BASIC BIO - 13%
    July 11, 2017
      13 bios down! Decided to start with my story characters since they're the easiest to write for haha. I'm not entirely sure now how many characters I'm counting, so I'm waiting to complete Character Keeper before I put an exact % completion.

SHORT SCENARIO - 0%

Artistic skills
▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
SNAPSHOT - 1%

A HUNDRED AVATARS - 16%
    July 28, 2017
      So, no one's completely done, but I have 23 lines done! I'm counting the lineart as that character's icon being 50% done, hence my current completion percentage (I'm letting Google Sheets handle all the math for me lolol) One of the characters is threatening to give me carpal tunnel with how difficult he's being to draw so I think that's enough for today ;o; ((better square up tho Edwin before I kick ur butt into my Trade group. I have no use for a character I can't draw >:///))


READY TO REFERENCE - 4%
    July 11, 2017
      I kind of want to redo some of the ones I've already done hah,,,
      I did make a reference for Max tho which I'm!!! really excited about. I'm scratching my base idea. I like it better when I've drawn the character completely from scratch and can show their personality in their posing & such.

I really need to do some work for this... I am so behind.
Just been so hectic.

If anyone is doing art stuff for pets or something that might be willing to help me out with some of those, I'd appreciate a PM? c:
All the writing I'll try and do myself, but as I am not artistically inclined that is more difficult.

I will be here
when you think you’re all alone
Seeping through the cracks
I’m the poison in your bones
My love is your disease
I won't let it set you free
Til I break you

You’ll never know what hit you
Won’t see me closing in
I’m gonna make you suffer
This hell you put me in
I’m underneath your skin
The devil within
You’ll never know what hit you


I tried to be the lover to your nightmare
Look what you made of me
Now I’m a heavy burden that you can’t bear
Look what you made of me
Look what you made of me
I’ll make you see
