@leverage Aww, that art is TOP NOTCH! I love shooting star's art.

@Serelathe Good luck! *helps paddle since we're in the same boat heh heh*

@Wesley What a lovely deal! Good luck and I hope someone is able to either add another kia to their collection or finally owns one of their own.

@sunlitsecrets I never noticed you looked up to me as a person who develops their characters. That comment really made my night, so thank you so much for mentioning me. ;v;

@neo. Welcome to the CAAA neo.! Hope you enjoy it here! Heh heh!

How do you decide whether or not you should keep a character? When do you know that it's time to let go?
If I can't develop them then its time to let go.

How do you convince yourself to get rid of a character that you no longer like but have an emotional connection to?
PFF. Currently, I actually have no idea how to answer this. I have several ocs that I feel this way too but they are developed and have loads of art and can't separate from them. I would guess you could put them up to readoption and then see the energy and compassion others have for it? If I see that someone wants something a lot I usually have a desire to give it to them!

How do you revive old sparks with characters that you no longer love?
Change their personality completely. Give them new bonds with new characters. Give them new items and perhaps shift their hue?

I assess how much I like their design/personality. When I decide I'm never going to draw them again.

How do you convince yourself to get rid of a character that you no longer like but have an emotional connection to?

I usually don't XD I really just keep them in storage.

How do you revive old sparks with characters that you no longer love?

I find songs that apply to them since most of my characters are based off of songs.



hey guys I might be streaming later and usually I give away a free custom character, see ya then!

not accepting pms right now unless I add you to my friends list.
finally quitting. I've told myself I'll quit soon, and I never did, but I finally feel like I should quit. Still keeping my characters/deviantart though. I've wanted to quit for a long long time, but I'm doing it.
Nobody on here talks with me , is friends, and I try to chat on the FR thread but nobody responds much.
Quitting CS and flightrising.

All my fr dragons/stuff went to one of my real life best friends, so don't ask for my FR stuff.

I made a fan-club for mine and Burnside's species! You can find it here! I would love it if people joined the community and marked the main thread and such <3

How do you decide whether or not you should keep a character? When do you know that it's time to let go?
It depends on how much I've developed the character, if they only have like one piece of art and Im not really into them I know its to to let them go.
How do you convince yourself to get rid of a character that you no longer like but have an emotional connection to?
I think how Im practically just hoarding them and then I feel bad and decide I should try trading them or selling to a good owner
How do you revive old sparks with characters that you no longer love?
I start ordering/doing art of the character, try writing more into them and stuff?

@ Ittam best of luck with the points /v/ i'd buy but im broke rn oops til i get paid
@bitterpigeon aa that art is lovely ;v;/ the character too~ i like the spikeys on their back
@leverage that arts all super cute /v/ i love the tiger chara~ i like the green/orange together aa
@ Vermillion congrats on the kalon, that ones a cutie QvQ it reminds me of bubblegum ahah


How do you decide whether or not you should keep a character? When do you know that it's time to let go?
Usually when i've come to a close with their story. I've played out all situations in my head, or I just? have no ideas left to use with them. I don't give up charas often, usually i keep them for years before i'll part with them.
How do you convince yourself to get rid of a character that you no longer like but have an emotional connection to?
I gather an emotional connection to most any character i own at any time ,really, usually if i want to get rid of them due to lack of time, i convince myself they'd just be better cared for elsewhere,with someone else
How do you revive old sparks with characters that you no longer love?
Revamp their designs, or add a new 'chapter' to their stories.

I finished my kintaur myo and im just waiting for approval on her ;v;/ im excited to use her

Another vuask up, this one's based on an orca
looking for maybe another artist or two for them? Ideally ones that can use oekaki,though i am making some non-oekaki lines, feel free to pm me~

@Sixbane I love your species, they're so cute! I like their anatomy and their designs are perfect! Keep up the awesome work!

Is anyone selling their feral characters for anything except USD or points?

    How do you decide whether or not you should keep a character? When do you know that it's time to let go?
    If I lost connection to both the design and personality/history. Sometimes I try to revamp the design or re-create the history to get myself connected to the character, but sometimes that doesn't work for me so I give them up... :<

    How do you convince yourself to get rid of a character that you no longer like but have an emotional connection to?
    aHHhh, I'm actually doing this right now. TBH it's very hard to do this, but I tell myself that the character is going to a new owner where they will be greatly loved and taken care of. It's not the best way, but it works for me.

    How do you revive old sparks with characters that you no longer love?
    I've never actually done this, but you can always revamp the design if you're not a fan of the design! Or (this is what I do) you can re-create their history/personality- give them a clean slate and start over. I think, I've re-created a couple of my character's histories at least 2-3 times.

Hey guys!
I need 700 points by tomorrow!

why do i do this to myself

Selling characters here:
(please offer)
All characters here are open for offers
This character is open for offers
This one is too
PM me or note me on DA!

Also taking Paintie commissions for 100 points each!
You can see an example of them in my signature
I can add accsessories, add hair, and minor fur edits
I can also add parts from other paintie bases (like a cat with dragon wings)
So PM me with a ref with what you want!
If you don't have the furdollars to use it, for another 100 points, I can give you the furdollars needed to upload a paintie!
(so if you want both it would be 200 points total)


@Sixbane I can't get over that species of your omg, also that paintie is gorgeous!
@Vermillion congrats on your first kalon! I'm still trying to get my first
@Ittam your art is amazing! Too bad I really need points right now XD
