I'M LOOKING! Well, at least I'm getting to them now little by little ;w;

You're pretty sure this is the last time? Pff, we'll see, Marky, won't we... |D
I was about to say that you don't draw this character enough ;w; I guess now I know why. But with a purpose you should be drawing him more often from now on, right? :dummy:
Aaaaaaaaaand alternate forms... I think he'd look brilliant as a gryphon. Or a pegasus. You don't have any pegasus characters do you? >w>

I DUNNO! Might end up like you and changing Alta's design. |D I've got a story thought up for this name change though so hopefully it'll stick this time. >o> Hopefully I'll do more with him now. Roomie and I have been playing with other ideas for him and I'm starting to like him a lot more. That's what happens with some of my characters though. I don't like them much at first because they're just kind of there, but once I actually come up with a purpose for them and their personalities start developing, then I actually start to like em. XD

Nope, no pegasus characters yet. And dang, I hadn't even thought of making that for a species either. *brick'd* Somethin to think on though. :'D All I know is that Mr. Chubby Pants says a couple of his alternate forms are a little embarrassing, or he thinks so at least. I'll probably end up playing with species for his area before I fully decide on forms though. *long reply is longish*

WhatareyoutalkingaboutIneverchangeAtla'sdesign |D *COUGH* Ah! Well, if you have a story then it should stick! :la: Haha, that's how it goes 8D A purpose is all they need :la:

No pegasus or hippogriff? Or winged horse in general? :P Bah, I shouldn't point fingers. I'm pretty sure all I've got is that hippogriff, number 34. And well, number 57 is a horse with "wings", but they're too small to fly with XD Perhaps I should make them bigger so I could say that I have a real pegasus *ponders*
SO! He says some of his forms are embarrassing? If you could make him turn into a goofy looking pheasant with that typical "what's going on!?"-look on his face that'd be priceless! 8D Hm, for some reason I also think a black/purple/red pheasant with scales around its eyes would look rather awesome... Oh dang, now I want such one XD Damn it

Hah~ Yeah, there are actually a lot of characters of mine that I didn't like much at first because they had no point yet, but once I figured out a purpose for them I started liking them a lot. <3 That seems to be how I am with characters in general though. They need some sort of purpose and at least a bit of info on em before I can really start liking them. : P

Not yet, but who knows. I know I won't stick anything like that in the one world with Rae and them because I don't think a pegasus would quite fit there (then again I've got unicorns and dragons so... pppft), but something like that might fit in Mark's world. I really don't have many species thought up for Mark's world yet so there's a good bit of room open to making things there.

OH MAN! That would be pretty funny. >D I have yet to decide on forms for him so I could certainly play with the idea of a pheasant. Might have to just draw him as different things and see what I end up liking. |D

Guess they start growing on you. Just like getting to know someone IRL : P

Hoihoi, excluding things can be a good thing 8D Makes the world more interesting and peculiar instead of just being "this big amazing place where ANYTHING is possible and ALL creatures ever thought of live". At least at some level I think it's cool to have rules about that :XD: Like how I (at least tried to) keep dragons out of my world. I failed at that, but ya know... XD And yay for a pegasus breed in Mark's world! Still a lot of work to do on that one, huh? But I recon you'll continue focusing on the Aldrin world for rest of 2012? :P

Would sure be fun to see! 8D Oh yes, draw him out as a lot of different things! :la: And post them all so we can see 'em! :la:

Indeed. :3

Oh yeah, I've got so many rules written out. Roomie can't even keep them all strait sometimes. XD Or at least she looks confused when I try to explain too much at once anyway. At least I know what I'm talking about? 8D But yeah, the amount of work I have done with Mark's world is like one drop in a bucket compared to what I have to do still. But I only work on that if I feel the need to take a short break from the other world. At this rate I'm thinking it'll be another few years before I finish Verenya's world building. =A= (Although apparently some people take 10+ years on world building so I suppose it's not too bad with mine.)

OK THEN! :la:

Beautiful reference! He has quite an elegant and strong design, those scales must taken quite a bit of time to draw. Nicely done indeed =D

Oh yes, the scales do take a bit of time, but it's worth it I think. :3 And thank you!
