Heeey, 300th picture here. Sweetness.

Anyways. Remember those "shamefully overdue" character trades I mentioned? Yeah. This is one of them. This here is they Kynionychus I promised the uber-talented Naderi ages and ages ago in exchange for a loverly picture. She provided the colors and the specs and I just now got around to putting it together.

Hope you all had a nice New Year, stick to those resolutions of yours. ;>

How-dee. :>

Here's my late (but not nearly so shamefully overdue as some) part of my character trade with Luna. I might need to adjust the colors of this since I suspect my laptop shows stuff lighter than other computers do. >:/ It's supposed to have dark purplish spots on it's back...tell me if you can see them well or at all. Hope you like it, Luna. I was beating my brains trying to come up with a good design, and I really don't know if I succeeded. x'D

I've been so out of the loop lately that I didn't even /think/ of Secret Santa until the 26th. Dag. I've never missed that before, and I'm rather saddened by that. Hopefully next year will be less hectic.

Miss you guys. :D

"Mom--the mane! Watch the mane!"

Contrary to popular belief (not really,) I'm not dead. School just sucks a lot and this is the first finished drawing I've made in a month or two. Ouch. I am really behind on a bunch of character trades/a regular trade or two offsite and other jolly stuff. School comes first, unfortunately. :C

I figured since I didn't upload for a month I should at least do some semi-canon. So, I did a picture of smilodon Simba and Sarabi in keeping with this Smilodon King thing I'm trying to justify in my head. I really should have looked up a ref of Sarabi, but whatever. I forgot to make Simba's cheeks fluffy like Sarabi's, darnit. Dx

Hopefully I'll upload again next week.

Howdy chaps. Been busy, blar-dee-blah--you've heard it all before.

I was given two awesome-sauce Orapa by AnnieH and I love them both to death...Still haven't named them though, haha. So I tried to sketch them out and get a feel for their anatomy. Near and I can tell an Orapa is a cross between a hare, a bird (obviously,) and a feline of some sort depending on the size. Am I close? C'x

Yeah. Got a lot of stuff I need to do art-wise and I seem to be out of practice with my Tabby. Darnit. I need to make more time for digital painting, but sculpting is so fun. D: I hope to have a wee something to show you guys in the next week or two depending on when the heck I get around to it.

'Till next time, have a nice day. :B

Hello everyone. :P I was feeling bored so I thought I'd go ahead and make my first icon. I've been wanting to offer chao icons for a while now but I finally got around to making it.

So, run down to the TT and make your requests and make sure that you read the instructions. If you don't get one this time around I'll try to put this up again the next time I have a free moment. I won't have a lot of time for these though, getting ready for my birthday party tomorrow night. :D It's going to be a rip-roarin'-good time.

Hey guys. :> Welcome to round two of my ongoing process of designing a proper Maori feline. Thanks to alla dang y'alls helpful suggestions, I think I am now much closer to the final product.

So. What do you all think of the markings now? I tried to make them more elaborate, as well as cohesive. I could learn to do these from memory with a bit of practice. :< And what do you think of the name "Rua"?

Couple of things:

The Nautilus tattoo is supposed to go across his neck/shoulder region, with the triangle notches eventually connecting with the back of his ear...Yeah.

At the bottom I depicted "Rua" with the tribe's tattoo artists: an aged, somewhat senile porcupine. :>

I've already got lots of stories for this character. :D

No, this is not an adoptable...Sorry. x'D

This bit of concept art is the product of much wishful thinking over the past...over two years now. I've been trying to find the perfect tribal character. Buuut that doesn't seem to be that popular of a theme nowadays. I have a serious soft spot for Maori culture ever since my visit to New Zealand years ago, and I really wanted to incorporate some of those themes into the design. So. Tattoos. I don't design them well. It's supposed to vaguely resemble a Nautilus...:/

Any kind souls want to offer suggestions? (Color, marking, accessory-wise?) I'd seriously appreciate it.

Here he is color-free.

Looong overdue character trade design for Red. A sable antelope with ladybug markings/colors, as requested.

Sorry about last weekend chaps. My tablet and scanner both decided to stop working and I finally got them to cooperate today. I felt crippled without either of them. DX I've got some designs in the works. It's all a matter of whether I get them colored in a timely fashion.

And about that evil kitty I made. I know I said I wouldn't keep him if he lost, but I think I changed my mind. :/ I don't know how/if I will use him exactly, but I just can't part with him now. I'm sorry. D:

Oh look! Another upload. :B

Just wanted to do some quick portraits of a few of my favorite characters and see if I could still do something like Disney style. I hadn't planned on coloring this at all but I decided to go ahead and do some flats.

I did my tiger Matu (designed by JamaniB, I love him to death but I draw him /so/ badly. X'D) and then I did Indy whom I've already introduced. Then there's Naiad, my gorgeous Feathered King Cheetah designed by Mystery; and Lune, adopted from Sami. Last is the Lavidra (Maya) designed by Redbull.

I might do more of these in the future.

Long ago, in a faraway land, I asked Angu if I could make myself a Zora lion. And she said yes.

I just now finished this, but I made the lineart back around Christmas. I draw this guy all the time though...weirdness. Just thought I should finally pull my act together and wrap it up. I based Indy's design off of the Twilight Princess-type Zoras as opposed to the old-timey ones. I thought the rib-gills were cool. :P The two false eye-spots on either side of Indy's head were sort of inspired by Princess...Ruto's(?) design.

Indy walks with a bit of a hunch and doesn't...actually...live under water. Think "sea cave." But he can still swim and stuff.

Bonus points to whoever can find the picture Indy appeared in previously. ;)

Hey you's guys; I'm still at that art place.

I stayed up really late the night before I left to finish this--it's Big Dille's 21st Birthday present. :> It's from that scene from The Road to El Dorado--I stole the drum designs and everything. :B We just really love that movie...and that one song with the trippy colors. The original is 18x37 and we got it printed up real nice at Kinko's.

I don't have this in my email in a smaller size, so I'mma gonna have to go through the slow approval thing. Haven't done that in a couple of years. Cx

I'm soooo ready to come home. I hate using this puny computer lab. :c

"So the next thing I knew I was skidding across the ground and--what? Have I got something on my face?"

I had just about the stupidest bike accident ever last week. It involved a large flying insect and my poor balance. Now I have very colorful legs. After the crash it didn't look like I was hurt too bad but five minutes later my knee was a small geyser. x_x Big Dille was the first one to notice. It was seriously gross. But other than that it was a lovely day. ^^

Leaving soon--I won't be able to take my laptop but apparently they have a computer lab. I'll try to have some art ready for show when I get back.

Khet in a sort of IJCWTBK setting. :> (Somewhat bg reffed I guess.)

I was feeling mighty happy about school finally being over, and felt like making something cheery. Khet has the happiest color scheme so I chose him for my victim. This is the second time I've done a picture without lineart, 'twas interesting. (I was inspired to try it with a cat by Emo_Hellion's adorable chibis. <3)

I'm going to be gone for three weeks starting Sunday, and I may not be able to upload again before or during that time. I should still be able to leave comments and all that good stuff though--it's going to be interesting regardless. :>

Heeey, lookit. Dille finally finished her Larko design. :P Very simplistic, I know.

It was awful coming up with a color scheme. And with my laptop's funky resolution I really have no idea of knowing what it is /you/ guys are seeing. Dag. But I like him anyways. :) He needs a name though. I'll probably be picking one myself but I don't mind suggestions. I originally made a bg, but it sucked so I manipulated a texture I stole off Google.

Lots to do, finals are a comin', been busy. Wanna see why?

Adorable cub adopted from Abracadavera. <3 I love him already.

I tried to get back in touch with my old style here. Not entirely successful, but not too bad. I don't like this picture all that much. I did it in the span of 50 minutes and when I set it down I just said, "You know....he looks /way/ too happy." But whatevs. I sort of miss drawing lions in Disney style, but right now I guess it is really more important that I work on my own. :/ Meh.

I'll try and answer peoples' comments on this and my last picture tomorrow--I'm trying to be better about that. D:

I have lots of half-finished art and completed OT pieces, so not much to upload here. :/ I'll try to color some stuff this weekend, but you know how it is.

I still love you guys. <3 I really should comment y'all's art more. My number of comments keeps decreasing as old pictures are being deleted faster than I make comments. C'x

Fun sketch of Dahlia I spent about 30 minutes on.

It started out totally static, but gradually mutated into something a little more entertaining. I tried something a little different with my style, but it's not a permanent change by a long shot. Cx (And I doubt anyone would have even noticed if I hadn't mentioned it. Whatever. >:U)

I have so much half-finished art I need to just FINISH ALREADY. And I'm actually making giftart again. It's been forever. :/ Hopefully I'll finish it before graduation. DX

Ok girls, honest opinions:
What do you think of "Guyliner"?

Oddly enough this topic came up with my friends repeatedly over the last two weeks. (There were a lot of guys wearing it. Long story, not that interesting.) But all the girls I talked to really liked it...Like, a lot. In some cases to the point where it was a little bit scary. Personally, I think it's a little creepy. The boys that wear it tend to weird me out is all. (That particular week half the guys in my grade were wearing it though. Oy.)

So, what do you girls think about it? Attractive, or creepy?

Sorry I didn't upload last week. Did a couple of OT projects. Also somehow managed to lose the lineart for the picture I was going to upload today. I have NO IDEA where it went or why I took it off my clipboard in the first place. I feel like I'm losing my mind. o_O

Anyways, here's Horus, my Egyptian lion. (He's wearing a headdress, he's not a mutant.) Might make a tie between him and Nanda...even though she lives far away...in the Namib....Maybe he'll move there. I dunno.

I made this a while ago and had hoped I would color it before uploading, but I didn't have anything else to post. ('Cause of my Houdini sketch. Arg!)

I'll go look for that.

She wanted me to draw Dinne and this is all that came to mind. Hope it's ok. I like the poses, but I think it needs a background. (I'll try and at least make a little one.) These two characters are awesome. :D I think my favorite part of making this was doing Red's hair. Cx

Made this with Big Dille over Christmas Break. Thought I'd upload it for fun...even though it's a doodle. Cx

Anyone here ever seen Milo and Otis? It's a rather old, sucky movie that we saw when we were little. I thought it was cute when I was five... Anyways, we watched it again recently, (friend got it for Big Dille for Christmas,) and were SHOCKED by how much animal abuse there was....And by how much it sucked in general. Like, not even funny. I can't believe I used to like it. This movie is why PETA exists. XD Read the picture for various examples of abuse. I think I missed a couple. I wonder how many cats they used to make this? O_o

Anyways, we want to send this to whatever twisted mind(s) is responsible for that awful movie. XD

WOW I had to cut the quality. Like, by 40%. Eww.

Anyways, this is my submission for Timitu's contest.

So seriously. This is the /only/ thing that came to mind. I thought in the Graveyard, perhaps some sinister shadows would have been a nice touch, but I can understand why they didn't do that.

Tried to make this look onceptual/storyboard-ish.(By like, drawing everyone in a funky style.) Not sure if I succeeded. Don't think I'll be trying that again for a while. DX

But yeah. :D Since the Wii is awesome, and I sort of have no games for it, I might start trading commission(s) for items off Amazon.com. I've seen people do it in the past, so I might give it a try.

So happy finals are over. x_x They were pure torture. I didn't get to do anything fun for like two weeks because of all the studying! D: But now they're dead. Thus, happy Dahlia for your viewing pleasure. Cx (More interesting stuff on Christmas. Yay for lilymud SS.)

Ulozi and my unnamed jaguar cubby from Mystery. <3 Love 'em.

(Name's? *eyebrow waggle at Saz*)

Anywho, I love these guys. They got a story in the works, but basically Ulozi is taking care of the wee Jaguar chap. ^^ They're close, so it's all good. Also, I've decided they are night kitties. So, they sleep when the sun is up, and their pretty markings only show up at night when they are active. (Hence Ulozi doesn't have his pretty peacock markings and the cub hasn't got his spots showing, just the tattoos.) I'll be sure to fill y'all in on the details later.

Gonna be gone this weekend, gonna have lots of fun. :D Have a nice weekend me hearties!

Awwr, she’s shy. ^^

It’s the little Crystal Gem Liger that Firestar was so kind to make for me. <3 I haven’t come up with a suitable name for her yet, but I’m still looking. (I’d name her after her stone, the Opal, but that seems kind of lame… I need to try harder. XD)

The grass was totally the most time-consuming part. It took like an hour just to do the blades. But it was sort of relaxing, so I guess it’s no big deal.
The pose was taken from a picture I found while browsing anatomical references. It was just too cute to resist, and it looked perfect with this character. :> The link to the picture was too long to add, but you can find it on Google.

Aaand I realized about halfway in that I forgot her pretty opal collar. Rats. >_<

I've made some big ol' changes to my style (for the better I think,) and I've made a few new chums around the archive. :> Things on the school front are looking pretty good too. Being a Junior is /way/ better than a Sophomore. Much less painful. x_x

In other news, I've lost my shiny clipboard. D: Now I must go buy another. Thing is, it had a few pieces of lineart on it I was sad to lose. (/No/ idea where it disappeared to...) Oh well. :< Life goes on.

My application for Zionsclaw’s character on the TT. C: She looks so cute, and I would totally name her Oomla. (A mispronunciation of those two funny dots that find their way on top of vowels. I ran into, like, my first one in Spanish last week. *clueless* I can’t remember the right way to pronounce it now.)
But yar. I made this sketch today…Well, I did the rough forms last night, but the rest I did during my English and AP classes. I really enjoyed it, because this character is stylin’ without being overloaded with itty bitty details that cause….head implosion. Yeah.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

"Intense"

About two and a half day's worth of effort here. I haven't done a serious pen work in a while, so I am satisfied with how this turned out. Once again, I was forced to greatly compromise the quality of the image. (To about %65, sadly. :/) I felt it needed to be fairly large to be as nice as it looks in real life. Too bad my sketch pad is way too big for my scanner.

Yep. Still a-workin' on the art I owe a few people.

Yes, I know, two uploads from Dille in one day is sort of unheard of. Bah. They aren't any good so it's not a big deal.

I'm applying for this lovely wild dog on the TT (from Fluffybunny.) I really like her blue markings, and I think she would fit in nicely with Ajax.....Who is way too small in this picture. For some reason I was under the impression that wild dogs were bigger. Next time I'll actually use a reference. Dang. Anyways, she would probably serve as a messenger for Queen Nanda. :>

Back from my cruise. :D It was loads of fun.

Anyways, the picture. This was going to be for Kitka's contest, but I am very late having been unable to finish this before I left. It was about Global Warming or summat. And since I've heard rumours of an ice age being the result of GW, this popped into my head. Smilodon Simba and Nala with a bunch of mammoths for the IJCWTBK number. I should have used references or at least looked over that clip...but I didn't. So it's not as good as it should be. The only parts that I sort of like are Simba and Nala, and yet I feel their designs are a little...lame.

Oh well!

Where has Dille been? Hiding. I haven't been able to put the finishing touches on the many things on my to-do list, so I lurked. Sadly, those to whom art is owed will have to keep waiting, I'm going to be leaving for a week in Florida tomorrow.

Sorry to those of you who like to color my lineart, I may update the file without the watermark in the future and just put a sig on it instead, but I've actually lost track of my tablet. (Which also explains why the art I owe is MIA.)

Wheee. Cx I just finished reading Tima's latest compilation of stories by the illustrious Audroole, and it was a load of laughs. The stories are cute, and Tima's illustrations are fantastic, but what really makes them great is the inclusion of the odd comments by those who were in sketcher at the time of the story telling.

Vilra, Birdie (Tima,) Tamu, Dahlia and Timba are the listeners here. I wanted to put Maq in, but I couldn't figure out how to pose her, and I kinda-sorta wanted to put Vilra in there anyways. >_>; *cough* I learned something about Timba also:...He's spotty. x_x

I'm sad that Audrey Cosmo has told her last story, but hey, at least she's making a great comic. :>
So, this is for you Audroole. <3

"Oh PLEASE."

Yeah, Vilra and Dahlia are not amused. I just got caught up on the latest smidgeon of archive drama and my eyes wanted to roll up to the back of my head and never come down. Seriously, I think a swift kick in the pants would do a lot of people a world of good. This was doodled up in sketcher and then colored in PS7. I was in such a grouchy mood when I made this. I'm still irritated, but I feel much better. :>

Here's the sketch. ('Cause I thought it turned out nicely.)

Now I need to go make a late prezzie for KassyNaVerdis. You all should too, 'twas her B-Day yesterday. :x

Basically a Photoshop experiment, I spent much longer on this than I wanted to.

I got a pretty adoptable and decided to doodle her up in PS, and then this happened. x_x I just wanted to make a simple little sketch of her, but I couldn't stop. Soon it mutated into some sort of horrible background and lighting practice that really didn't turn out the way I wanted it to.
I like it fine I suppose, but the background, (excluding the sky,) looked much better before....the sky exploded or something. I don't know what happened with that. x_x

Her name is supposed to be Otabinti but I'll just call her Ota until I come up with something else. (Suggestions?...^^;)

Err...I never uploaded this here, now did I? ^^;

It's Pluvia, the gorgeous cloud fae that Hibbary gave me. The background was kind of a bust, but I still entertain hopes of maybe getting this colored someday. :> Thaaaanks, Hibba-hibba.

Contest prizes are coming along....well, I haven't actually started on Alora's yet, but I have ideas. I'm almost done coloring Scarla's but it most likely won't be up until tomorrow evening or summat like that.

Dille <3's summer.

Hey. Hey, guess what.... =D

...I'm a Junior now, YAYS!

My level of happy is not so much attributed to being a Junior as it is to /not/ being a Sophomore anymore. Gnyehh. Do not want. Yes, this was the best year so far, but it was also filled with the most suffering. :D I'm NEVER taking all honors again. Bah. >_____>

So yes. To celebrate, I colored up some lineart of Dahlia dancing. ^^ I made up the headphones, but that archaic bit of tech she has is indeed my iPod shuffle =====> OLD.
The lineart isn't as pristine as usual. Weird eraser = smudging like nobodies business. :/

Happy Summer! 8D

Naiad, looking up to the surface. (I <3 this gal, Mystery.)

I hope to color this eventually. This lineart is about a month old, but I didn't make a thing all week so I'm uploading what I have so far. (I keep a couple of pieces of lineart for busy weeks like this.)
Alas, I don't think any art will be done this weekend. All projects are on hold until finals end this upcoming Friday.

This week is not going to be fun. >___>

This was just a quick PS thing, about 30 minutes of half-brained work here. Meh. I'm ok with it I s'pose.

A big thanks to Saz for the unique name that actually has a sort of point to it. :D Yaaay.

A character design I am messing with. I shall post it to keep you distracted so I can try and finish up my picture for Hibba-hibba. (I don't know why I call her that...)

Anyways. I blame this on my listening to Dreams of an Absolution half a million times and having that darn'd Silver infest my brain. Anyways, this is what oozed out my ear and I hope you guys like him.

Name suggestions would be greatly appreciated/adored/heartily thanked. Yes indeed.

Made on sketcher, rather inspired by Silver. Now if you will excuse me, I'mma go draw this guy and refine his design.

Here's something to entertain you guys while I'm gone. I'm going to be heading off to Rome, Italy in the morning, so you won't get another upload until around next Saturday. I am so darn excited I can't believe it.

I made this in H Geometry last year. c: If you want to, you can print it and put it together or something. I would suggest pasting it onto good stiff paper before cutting it out though. And don't use tape to hold it together, glue is much better.

Have a nice week everyone. (I hope I do!)

WIP, I hope to upload a version of this with a background in the future.

Why yes, this /is/ all I have to show for myself. I just got back from my youth ski trip, and my butt is /killing/ me after that 18-hour bus ride. We watched every Bourne movie in succession, and I can't get his darn'd theme song out of my head. DX HELP ME!

Anyways, here is my unnamed smilodon I adopted from Firestar. I'm thinking of calling him Flint, but I stink at names. This was entertaining at least. I also managed to get a sketch that I like of my picture for Hibbary. Just need a marking ref now.

No anatomical reference used. (Or any sort of reference really.) Yes, it /does/ show, doesn't it?!???!?

A bit of lineart a few weeks old that may never be colored, but I figured it was worth posting. c:

It's my techno genet critter that I got from Majime. ^^ I've taken to calling her Electra, but that could change. (Any suggestions? c:) I made a few changes to this character....like, her gender. :P I also screwed with some of her colors, but it's nothing too major. I hope to color this, but I'm hard pressed for time.

Alas, I was not able to make an application picture for Hibbary's Arcus that didn't totally stink. :( I thought I had some good ideas for him, but I just couldn't get them on paper (or tablet) the way I wanted them. Ah well. Best of luck to you other appliers though. c:

No colored art until next weekend at the earliest. I only have time to sketch during my classes. The March Through Heck week is almost over, just a few loose ends to tie up before I can crash. I've been operating on very little sleep recently. Some of my friends got between one our and no sleep at all last night. I had to finish my 15 page allegory. *dies* But it's done now, stoopid Western Lit. final. >3>

*cough* Anyways, Mystery agreed to do a charrie trade with me, and this is the doll I got from it. She a feathered king cheetah-ess of the water element. I'd luff it if y'all could help me name her. <33

I'll color my part of the trade next weekend once finals are but a memory. c;

edit* 200th picture! ^^

*falls off face of the earth*
Sorry about not updated last week, too busy. :o I have managed to get some rather important lineart done, but I won't have time to sit down and color anything until after finals. (They start the week after next. *gulp*)

I need to get a bigger scanner. This darn thing doesn't fit my sketchbook, and I had to (poorly) edit the dark, grainy shadow that was on the left side. Eww. Anyways, lynx study for a beastie I've dubbed Erasmus. c: (After a dead philosopher no less.) Lynxes are fascinating, I never really noticed how oddly they are built.

edit* Forgot to mention, the poses and such in this were heavily referenced from photographs to get the anatomy right. Oh, and I'm on Sheezy now. Come visit me. ;D

"How's the weather down there?"

Simon, the tree pangolin. c:
His appearance has changed a bit since his last picture. I mostly tweaked his color and his weird...platey things. (What do you call those things on pangolins? Scales?) Anyways, I made the scales a bit more bristly.
Perhaps my first(?) tablet only picture, no scanning lineart or anything. It was actually very fun, and I find that I really prefer this style of shading. I'm trying to learn to do half decent backgrounds and I figure this is a start at least. c:

I'll probably be updating this file once or twice. I think the colors might need to be sharpened, but I'm too tired to tell anymore. Crit appreciated.

Who's sick of my character sheets? *multitude of hands go up* Yeah, well, me too.

This is from my Blastoff church retreat last week or so. (Two weeks? Week and a half?) Anyways, we played Mission Impossible, fuuun. The best part was the scouting. ^^ (Depicted here is the team captain and m'self.) It was fun running through the dark, tall grass as fast and as quietly as possible and then throwing yourself into the shadows spontaneously. :D

Hopefully there will be more ballpoint pen illustrations of the weekends high points finding their way into my gallery.

Dille turned 16 at about 6 o'clock this morning. ^^ She's officially OLD. To commemorate the occasion, I have drawn Vilra and Dahlia together. Of course, Dahlia is stuffing her face. c:

Hurrah. Now I can drive, but I hate driving, and I have nowhere to go. o____o Happy Birthday to meee. At least my sister got to come home for Fall break, that's peachy-good-times right there. Not much to say really. This lineart probably won't get colored, pencil art is now an insane pain to color. It was hard enough trying to keep from smudgin' it. *huff*
Oh well. You may have noticed Dille doesn't get really excited about birthdays. Cx Have a nice week, mah homies.

My application for Mithril's albino cheetah up on the TT. (I'm cheetah-crazy, I know.) I was just going to do some lineart, but I figured Yuna deserves some color. c:

If I get her, she shalt be queen of alla my cheetahs. ('Cause her description says she's a queen. I'm just so creative, you know? *sarcasm*) Ahem, anyways. I think she'd make a spiffin' queen. :)

Several people will be getting this picture, but it's not a mass thank you. If you get it, it's because I actually put some thought into it.
If you have ever helped me to fight art thievery, (in all shapes and forms,) you'll get this as a thank you. ^^ If you have helped my out and you don't get this, please tell me. c:

And now, down to business. I understand there has been some talk of style-filching. People seem to be under the impression that I don't care, as my previous attempts to resolve the issue were apparently ineffective. This is not the case. I do not approve. I'm not mad, but I do not approve. I just want you all to be aware of that.
I'm trying to decide what further action to take, thought this'd make a decent first step.

My zebracorn character, Juniper, as a wee foal. :3 It's been hard finding stripe patterns for all of my new characters, but it's fun.
I had to use reference for this picture, I lack horsely skills. D:

This took me forever. x_x Well....not really, seeing as I was able to finish it in one day, but still, the shading was a pain in the bum.
Rednight's old fursona, and my new character, Robin. c: Love this gal, she's so cute and versatile. I like characters that fly, 'cause you can put them into scenes with clouds. (And as you have all figured out by now, me likey clouds. :B) Now I must go and crawl into bed, gotta get up early on the 'morrow. G'night. c:
