[liiontai]

Do any of your characters have professions?
Well, Guion, I like to think of as someone who works on planes. He has always loved aviation and has great knowledge of everything to do with that field.
Rosse works as a DJ at her local club.
P4T was a repair and maintenance robot, before he broke away from that.

I'm here to share an adorable Chibi from my friend and what I got for Secret Cupid!! ;o;

@ liontamer321 woah nice chars!!
@happysparrow Mika is so cute!

I need some help choosing what flowers to frame around him. It's far from finished but this is what I have so far! There's four frames, which one looks best?

I'm still unsure on which to choose, any more opinions? ^.^

[Lily.Sweet]

Had a lot of fun drawing Fennel as a dark elf, so meet FeniKel
Linked for size


@MotherMother
I liked 3, if that helps

[Larkspur1678]

Just got a preview of the take-home badge I ordered from ChibiMarrow at Midwest Furfest. It should be laminated and shipped out soon!


I also got an amazing character design from my secret cupid, GasW0lf! Art/design is by them.




Notice any excessive patterns in your oc collection or do you manage to keep things diverse?
Wild canines and big cats are 90% of my characters. I also have a lot of grey and blue in my collection. Tiger stripes are also becoming more prominent.

How do you usually attain your oc's?
USD on FurAffinity. I don't buy characters too often though, so its not that costly.

[amarula]

ok, I need some help.
I need to earn about 20 dollars more to hit my goal of 50 (next goal 100). I'm discounting alot of my things in hopes they sell. I got interest from alot of people, but as usual no one buys anything, and my hopes are falling. I need this money desperately for when I move out, and thats probably sooner than later. any purchases are appreciated.

$3 each! used to be 5.


$10 ! used to be $20!


$10! Used to be $20!


$7!


$5!


There's plenty more available but I dont want to spam too much. Please please check out my DA: http://courtneynm.deviantart.com/ I also have hq commission options for very cheap!

@Larkspur- love the design you got, I haven't got mine yet D:
@Lily.sweet- thats so good C:
@mother.mother- I like option 3 C:

[Hoffnungsstern]

Sorry for the really long post!
I haven't posted in the last few days so there is quite a few of my daily character art:

One of Vicenzo:

Vicenzo's nickname is Vince and he is male. His birthday is on the 4th April and he would be 25 if he was human. Vicenzo is asexual and is single right now. He is a tiger and was born in the jungle and still lives there to this day. He has never seen the world outside the jungle or even knows that there is something else beside the jungle. His mother was killed by humans when is was little but he survived because he was raised by another tiger, who also had cubs.
Vicenzos favorite prey are wild boars and if he isn't busy with hunting he sleeps. His favourite spot for sleeping is in a large tree next to a lake.

One of Clara:

Clara doesn't have a nickname. She is transexual (male to female) and her birthday is on the 28th January. If she was human she would be 16 and she is homosexual. Clara is a princess and will be queen someday although some are arguing wther she will be a good queen or not as she loves jewelery. They fear she will drive the kindom in bankruptcy with her urge to buy expensive accessories.Speaking of becoming queen: Clara has another Problem. To become queen she needs to get married and she only wants a wife as beautiful as her.

and one of Ani & Ina

Ani and Ina weren't always called like that but they forgot their former names. They are both agender and their birthday is unknown as well as their age. They were once two seperate beings with Ani being a demon and Ina an angel. They were both captured by scientist who used them for experiments. One day they both woke up attached to each other and with new names.

I also got some awesome new characters

@amarula
I probably repeat myself but your designes are so cute! I wish I could buy one! I saw that you haven't added them to any groups maybe you will sell them if you add them to some? I hope you get the money you need!

@Larkspur
That badge already looks so cool!
Also congrats on that awesome character!

@Lily.Sweet
That art is so cool!

@MotherMother
personally I love the 3rd one the most!

@happysparrow

@liontamer321

@Paranoia
God luck to you as well!

@unloyalist
That kintaur is beautiful I love the colours!

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

Got any insect or weird species oc's? Who's your weirdest?
I don't think i got any insects but I got many weird ones for example:
Aquor
Cat
Error
Fade
Indigo
Jasmin
Judith
Kasper
Kichi
Oswald
Pasco
Sputnik
Wither
Wolle
I don't think I can choose who is the weirdest of them

Notice any excessive patterns in your oc collection or do you manage to keep things diverse?
I think right now I have pretty diverse characters. That's probably since I'm not so picky with them.

How do you usually attain your oc's?
I do a lot of trades for art I think the most art I draw is for trading a character

[iHolli]

{It's time for Holli's once a month post haha ;u; I have a lot to talk about buuut I'll try not to make my post too *visually* long!}

@ NARANDA [p. 400];; I'm in love with the art by Zera ;o;
@ MotherMother [p. 400];; I prefer the third frame personally uvu
@ oof [p. 400];; Wuzie is stunning, your raccoon is adorable, and aaa Nozi looks precious in that piece! He does look like a Pokemon! Cuuuteee >v<
@ Mikuru Senpai [p. 400];; What lovely art you recieved <3
@ irina [p. 401];; Ah, your OTA batch is gorgeous, good luck selling ;u;

@ unloyalist [p. 402];; Whoaaa Santos Abaddon is a cool character anD a cool name :0 Congrats!

@ amarula [p. 403];; Good luck getting the funds you need ;o; That Dachshund is precious!
@ Hoffnungsstern [p. 403];; Your daily character art is just wonderful ?? I love it ?? And such gorgeous new chars you got! The first one though aaa <3

There's sO MANY QUESTIONS I want to answer aaa

Code: Select all

tell us some fun facts about a character you dont normally give attention too!
Ooh! I'll pick Joseph for this one! I love him to pieces but I haven't done a lot with him. Okay, so, he's the first of my space characters. He's sort of like a Green Lantern [im trash i make these references] except he has to take care of the entire universe that my characters live in. It's a big job but he still makes time for his friend Pandora and the two are slowly bringing in more characters to help Joseph so he doesn't have quite so much to do. He's never made it clear if he is actually immortal, instead always explaining that time isn't really a concept in space. And for the job he has, he really isn't that great with people. -shrugs-

do you enjoy simple hybirds where one specie is more dom than the other or do you enjoy more complicated ones that show the different speices traits?
I'm going to say more simple for this one. My big species hybrid is canine x marine creature, like my secondary 'sona Holli and Makos.

Any fandom based characters? Either personality or otherwise?
I have a tON of fandom based characters because I'm not original ?? I have three Pokemon chars; Maestro Leopold is basically the cat version of the character from MSA Magic; I tied Bennett directly to the Steam Powered Giraffe universe; Beatrix and Volt are inspired by SteamWorld Heist; Ongakugami is an Okami fanchar and Yami is based on the final boss from the game; Aiden is a cross between Aladdin and my favorite book trilogy; I could go on for so long about my fandom based chars oops

Do you base any of your character(s) off of you? Any examples...
Because I'm not that original of a person when it comes to personality, actually all of my characters probably have some similarity to me, be it a personality trait or just something we both like.

Oldest Character(s) you currently own? Any examples...
Ooh...tough one. The oldest that comes to mind is Shae.

Closed species VS. Original Characters- Which do you prefer? Any examples...
I'm not a big fan of closed species anymore but maybe that's just because I'm bad at winning them ?? Oops
I really like original characters though [despite the fact that I don't make my own very often], I just enjoy seeing others' work uvu

Have you retired any of your characters? Which ones?
Officially only my 'sona was retired, the panther design of Holli. Guess I haven't considered retiring characters x>

How often do you feel like you aren't giving your characters enough love?
...more like when do I nOT feel like this

Are you planning on using the ocs now for future published projects such as books, comics or videogames?
I've had so many ideas for character comics come and go, but I usually run short on ideas for long-term projects plus there's the whole having to draw it thing xD For the most part I prefer short stories with characters. They suit my attention span and I can write about more chars that way!

Do you have set mains, secondaries, etc, or do you just randomly focus on whatever group of characters?
I focus on individuals :'D Setting specific mains etc would be too difficult for me since my "favorite chars" vary a lot depending on what I'm doing with them.

What site do you store your characters on? Do you like it?
Right now I have only three places where ALL my characters are: my computer, my phone's note app, and my Sta.sh. I love having my stash for storage and it's easy to keep all the design info there. The actual character info is on my phone though. I occasionally spend time on my wip Weebly site but it's been kinda obnoxious to use. I only recently got a Toyhou.se so I haven't experimented with it yet!

What's one animal you'd like a character of but don't have one?
An otter ?? They're popping up everywhere at the moment and I now I want one too! I actually have an idea for one, I just haven't gotten around to making him a reality <3

Would a raccoon based species that hoards random junk be something you were interested in?
yE S ???

What is the most important part of a species?
Uh, my own translation of the question answers with 'its community.' A species relies so much on its community. No community at all and the species won't take off. A welcoming community is going to get more people involved. If the community goes downhill the species will too.

How do you choose a mate for one of your characters?
Usually it starts with a design similarity, then I end up making the two characters a launchpad for each other. For example, one couple I have is Kellin and Heartblep. Heartblep is like a living heart moniter so she lives in a hospital going between machines. A near-fatal accident put Kellin there and Heartblep saved his life. Voila, I have a ship. xD

Do any of your characters have professions?
For me, character development starts with what they do, so yes xD

Where do your characters live? (world/special houses/habitat etc)
I have my characters spanned across several worlds in one galaxy/universe, though most of those worlds are like Earth, just maybe in different time periods or AU versions. And of course I have my entire space group as well!

Which of your characters is the younger? And the older?
Excluding my space chars, my oldest are Lotus and Misaki. Lotus is a demonic Egyptian queen who ended up in the modern world, placing her at 3000+ years, and Misaki is an ancient tree spirit, so who knows how long he's been around. My youngest is probably Pip-Pip, who's barely a puppy.

Which is the character you've desired the most and actually achieved? Show!
My fourth JBD, Tao! I believe he's the only closed species impress-me contest that I've actually won. He has a perfect mix of all my favorite possible species traits and I love his split personality.

Got any insect of weird species oc's? Who's your weirdest?
The first that comes to mind is a character/species concept who never made light past Facebook but who I still enjoy, Arana. She's a black widow-rabbit hybrid!

Notice any excessive patterns in your oc collection or do you manage to keep things diverse?
I think mine are mostly diverse? However I do go more for characters with dark palettes and I lOVE skeletal designs.

How do you usually attain your oc's?
Auctions and flat sales, I've always been a buyer over a competitor xD

I'll add some links tomorrow it's already 6 in the morning haha

{I have gotten so many new chars since my last post, I want to talk about them all otl}

Unnamed;; I haven't decided on a name for this boy but he's my Sword Art Online character! He's an insanely skilled VRMMO player who is constantly underestimated due to his small size, he really only goes outside at night, and he lOVES small dragons.
Unnamed;; This awesome cat-dragon-something ?? I'm definitely thinking some kind of Chinese or Japanese mythological creature for this one uvu
Unnamed by Shining-Star-Adopts [dA];; I have so few human/oid characters so I'm very happy to have this one! Another MSA Ghost character because I'm trash haha
Cosmica [lines by cactusjpg, design by tennisbutt];; This lady ?? I'm still so happy I won the auction for her ?? Initially I was debating more of a Maximum Ride character for her bUT I've had an idea for a space char and she fits perfectly! Cosmica, who is named after an SPG character, is my star caretaker. It's her job to repair and clean stars <3
Baloo by Azalesha;; Eeep this kid <3 Baloo is my ditzy, carefree, happy lion boy who loves bananas <3
Nimbostratus by junkdad [dA];; Nim, my new sad bb who, despite being a Great Dane, is convinced he's still a lap dog >v< He controls precipitation and is why it rains when you're sad. Since Nim cries a lot he feels it's comforting to people to know they aren't sad alone! But he can't be everywhere at once so people have to sort of take turns getting rain. Nim rides around on a little thundercloud uvu
Unnamed by LittleViolenca [da bc I forgot your CS name ?? oops];; This char screams redwing blackbird at me and since my parents love birds I had to have him, he can shapeshift into said bird and he likes to look for unique birds to journal about!
Unnamed by Sock.;; Got this cute pup, they don't have a name yet but I'm thinking of making them some kind of fallen angel uvu
Sad rose couple by silverwolfahoo;; I've really been into rose designs lately ?? I got these two and made them a couple, they're both sad all the time so they rely on each other a lot and they're rly cute
Unnamed by Noel;; Impulse bidding again ?? Another space character! This bright pup grants the wishes that people make on shooting stars >v<
All but top right by Shadow.Flame;; I've gotten five designs from Shadow.Flame I'm crazy about their work oops :'D The gray pup is another space character but I haven't quite decided what to do with them; the dragon pup, who is in fact the size of your average gigantic dragon, hoards gold, but only the kind at the end of rainbows!; and the galaxy panther/undecided big cat controls comets and meteors, and works somewhat with the shooting star pup.
Volt by Shadow.Flame;; SteamWorld Heist char number two <3 Volt is slightly nicer than Vectron from the game but he's just as bad a shot.
Yami by Shadow.Flame;; And Okami char! I have almost no villain-y characters but Yami is based on the Okami character and hE ISN'T NICE
Juniper by hnai [da] [I think ??];; I love Australian shepherds and I don't know how I didn't have an Aussie char before? But I bought Juniper and aaa I'm in love <3 She's probably going to be one of the weirdest personalities of my hoard, she's obsessed with radiology, and she has a "shadow tail" >v<

{There will be a day when I stop getting new chars but apparently that day wasn't this week ?? Oops}
{buT Arbok did get some wonderful art by Zailune!}


{I always love getting art of my characters so I'm definitely going to start focusing there more, especially now that I've finished the last of my owed art and just want to develop the ideas I already have for my chars. and bc i have no money for spending and im going to want to buy games for my new-to-me 3ds bye}

Code: Select all

[b]What's a really unique species for a character that you have maybe not seen before and would like to?[/b]

{I know the question was asked for what would you like to see more of so this might be too similar ?? But because I have a ridiculous imbalance between my canines and other species I want to change up some species and would love some really unique characters!}

Code: Select all

[b]Pick one or two of your characters that you think receive the least attention or are the most underdeveloped. Now tell me a few things about them that might help you with their development![/b]

{To answer myself, I'm choosing Scoobi! He likes fall and photography, paints in his spare time, and is fascinated by superstitions and the supernatural. He loves the ghosts from Mario, and, somewhat ironically, hates Halloween. His favorite time is foggy/misty mornings, when he usually ventures outside. He's probably buddies with Juniper, my MSA Ghost characters, and my grim reaper char Haunter.}
