Man, it's been a while since I posted here. So many responsibilities, so little time. I think I have significantly less now so although I'm sick, I'll post a little something. And by that I mean answer a lot of questions!

Time to ask the classic questions!

Code: Select all

[b]How many characters do you have?[/b]

[b]How many are closed species?[/b]

[b]How many you designed yourself? How many designed by others?[/b]

[b]How many characters do you WISH you had?[/b]


what drawing tablet would one recommend for a hobbyist?
Um, for hobbyist I would say a Wacom Bamboo medium size. I use a small myself but the extra 20 dollars for a larger size is totally worth it!

Here is their website to help you pick and choose! Oh, and to compare prices as well!
http://wacom.com/en-us

How do you feel about people PMing/Noting you to ask if any of your characters are for sale?
I love it! It means people care enough about my characters to actually pursue them. I think that shows great love and a perfect example of a good future owner!

How would you want someone to note/PM you? e.g. a polite inquiry? Right to the point? Conversation before question? etc.
As long as they aren't swearing up a storm and being down right rude I don't mind how they ask!

How do you usually response if/when people do ask you about it?
If I don't feel attached to the character, I give them away for free. If there is a little attachment I usually sell them. At the least, I allow them to offer their price.

When looking at characters that are up for sale, which do you prefer: a character site/profile or a stash group?
Why do you prefer this way?
Any tips for someone looking to sell characters?

Sta.sh. The reason why is I feel that character sites are mainly for showing development and fleshing out your character, while a sta.sh gets straight to the point. If I'm buying a character I'm probably not so much interested their previous backstories.

As for tips, just have credits with your pieces is all I can say.

are there any types of characters that you'd love to have but have not found the perfect one yet?
A character that has fullbody gradients with some accent markings. I can never find one that strikes my interest, except for Bellicose and some kias.

What's your most interesting character:
Silver
Probably Silver, who has 8 other addition forms based on what type of silver they eat: bloop
(art and design by me)
What's your most original characters:
SSC
Stopsign-chan for sure (art and design by me)
What's your strangest character:
I dunno, maybe Stopsign-chan again? Ha.
What's your favorite character overall:
Bingo
Probably Bingo! I just love any gambling motif and Bingo really shows it! (art and design by me)
What's your favorite piece of art you've ever gotten of any character:
ACK. That's hard.
Um I actually can't decide.
So have Silver's newest piece instead? I actually cannot choose, for I usually like all the pieces I get.
Image
By dave.

Do you have any characters that look more like the opposite gender? do you have characters that don't look like any particular gender?
All my the characters I made myself are agender so I guess that answers that question, heh.
As for characters that look more like the opposite, I suppose you mean sex? Then I wouldn't really know. Maybe Ana looks like a guy?
Ana

Do you have characters that are not binary gender? (i.e. not male/female)
This entire group
who is your oldest looking character?how old are they?
At this point, it's probably Biscotti with 3+ years?

who is your youngest looking character? how old are they?
Bero who I just got . . .two days ago?

Who is your tallest character? who is your shortest?
Tallest is Peikoe, shortest is Kin

Who is your lightest character? who is your heaviest
Pallas is my lightest, and Rach is probably my heaviest due to his monster size.

Do your characters have Zodiac signs? name 5 of your characters and give their sign
Silver - Scorpio
Pallas - Leo
Biscotti - Also Scorpio
Rach - Also Scorpio
Kin - Gemini
( I just did the 5 that came to me quickest)

If I sold him, how much should he be?
500 points at least!

Would you want to buy character designs from me?
I love sheep, so if you had another sheep design probably!

Do I, FallenPegasus, have any of your dream characters? Or any that you like? link
No dreamies, but I do love Sharkie!

What have you found to be the best method for clearing house? As in getting rid of characters totally.
Gifting them, fcfs. Then away that's just something I personally love doing.
As for the average person, perhaps slashing the prices in half? Advertise it as a deal, and promise to do holds. If you do holds people are more willing to do business with you

how much has the info in the form that you joined the caaa with changed since you posted it?

Well when I initially joined I got 23 I believe, then when I joined again (for old times sake) I had only my 10 mains. I still only have 10 mains, but everyone including CS species and retired characters brings me to /round 40.

To you, what are the most important qualities in a reference sheet??
Hex codes and angles that show the markings from every side, unless they are assymetrical!
Oh, and tongue colour and nose colour is important too.



--------

I don't think I ever shared this, but my friend Zuppe gifted me a kia!
Image
(art and design by Pandoras-Island)
They have Rare Ear, Fur, Tail, Hair and Leg Edits! Zuppe said they were a 45$ value so I'm so thankful to them!

Code: Select all
@Kessler You always have such great characters! I might poke around, heh heh!

@AlienBabe Welcome to the CAAA! Hope to see you around more!

@ QuantumNightmare Good luck selling!

@Smolder I think that's a rather nice design! I'm not one for multiple leg species, but you shouldn't take less for that for that design!

@Larkspur Ooh, how lovely! Yeah, I think that's a good fursuit ref! And a new job at Krispy Kreme? Congrats! Hopefully you get discounts on the donuts!

@KinqBoo Congrats on making some Pimmie adopts! I do love your designs, so I await to see what you come up with!

@Miss. Scei Love the natural colours with the sparkley fluffy bits. Hope you get some offers!

@NizoLuv That piece of Nightpaw is rather cute! Catproof did excelent work!


I would type more responses but I'm sneezing too much to type correctly *sighs*

woo posting again a bit soon bc i love questions!

How many characters do you have?
uhh... my most recent count landed at 62. But I do have a few stragglers not added in to be counted yet, that number is just how many folders i have (one each char.. good for sorting art and stuff) within my character folder.

How many are closed species?
22(+)? One is of a species I think has been abandoned but i still love the one i have, 2 of them are cheese doodles and 18 are kiamaras! There are a few from closed species I created but I may or may not transfer them off species in the near future

How many you designed yourself? How many designed by others?
Basically every one of them except the closed species (and even then 3 of my kias were myos so i did design some), and like 2 or 3 non closed. I connect better with my own designs~

How many characters do you WISH you had?
I'm content with as many as i feel i need. apparently, 62's juuuust right for the moment~ Honestly despite the large number I am intensely attached to each and every one of my characters and could name off most if not all, from the top of my head

@Aniki - that birb is adorable! ;w; i wish more people had bird characters; they are just so precious..
@Fawkes-Rinzler - i love the alternate colors you gave cecil! c:
@Miss. Scei - all that fluff! that design is adorable!


When looking at characters that are up for sale, which do you prefer: a character site/profile or a stash group?
Why do you prefer this way?
Any tips for someone looking to sell characters?

i much prefer stash groups or toyhouse for looking at characters.
sometimes character sites can be really inconvenient to navigate and when i have to continuously click on links to look at the characters i often give up looking or just don't look at all. stash folders make it a lot easier to view a lot of things at once.


How many characters do you have?
33 active

How many are closed species?
1 is a kia and 2 are lld's which were formerly a closed species.

How many you designed yourself? How many designed by others?
i designed 5; and the other 28 are designed by others.

How many characters do you WISH you had?
i wish i could narrow my count down to around 20. ;w;
on hiatus...

Wanted to show off a little floating pixel of my character, Caeli.

How many characters do you have?
*cracks knuckles*
Alright, time to get started.

Fursonas - 2 characters
Primary - 6 characters
Secondary - 6 characters
Tertiary - 5 characters
Closed Species - 11 characters
Which is a total of 30 characters.
BUT, I have 10 characters in my "selling" folder which would bring my total to 40 characters.

How many are closed species?
11 characters are closed species! I have 3 Deerserts, 1 Plumerian, 1 Fookita and 6 Sweets.

How many you designed yourself? How many designed by others?
I've designed 3 characters, Everest, Rez and Unnamed.
I'm only listing a few uvu...
- 6 designed by Lady--Bug on DA
- 2 designed by Kittencity on DA
- 1 designed by Sixbane
- 1 designed by Sadbloom
- 1 designed by Harpsr
And the others designed by other people.

How many characters do you WISH you had?
I wish I would have at least 15, and I'm trying really hard to cut down on characters but it's so hard to give them away... :>
