I have a lot of adopted designs and characters that I never really show anyone outside of my select circles of friends. Friends I can trust.

I know a few people who have glanced at my 'cast' of characters have expressed a sense of anger or, idk, judged me for 'hoarding good adoptables' or something. I have like 200+ of them amassed over around 15 years now.

I doodle my adopts here and there as I please, in private, and I rework them, evolve them and develop them for stories I write constantly with my many friends in private chats. Many of the characters also flesh out worlds I write as important background OC's or supporting cast, with the ability for someone to interact with them more if the plot required it, or if they were interested in them. A shop keeper may become pivotal to hiding a cast of my friends characters in the later stages of a story when before she was just a vague background OC. A rumor of a demon living on a mountain might start an entire plot line for a farm of goat-monsters. Another may be a long lost brother for a handsome stranger looking for the rest of his family in an unfamiliar city. Or I might completely rework a fluffy black and white dragon beastie into the fighter jet pilot on an alien moon.
Guess that's up to me, isn't it?

I love having a wide selection of characters to choose from, and I like supporting artists by purchasing those adoptable characters every now and then with some spare cash I make from my day job. And in these dire days, when most people making art for a living are now being broken down and undervalued as it is, I assume selling some cute pony adoptables to me is pretty neat. So don't be so sour. Don't be so blue~

Anyway
Hope your all good, my lil kittens. I'll keep sporadically posting artwork whenever I can!! Some of you may have noticed my artwork being published lately in a few places! Which is nice! I've been suffering from a few health problems, as you do when your long in the tooth like me, but I am so well loved and have such lovely friends around me. Blessed.
I can't wait for xmas and to see my wonderful family too! We had a few very sad losses this year, they are so missed, but so grateful to have known them and had the chance to love them. And I am thrilled about the new additions to the family, and the hope for more in 2024. There is always time for more family members, more friends and giving a warm home to furry little fuzzies again.
