Hello, everyone! I’m drawing a bunch lately but I’m running out of ideas. If you guys want me to draw something specific, let me know! I’m mostly focused on wildlife but personal characters are welcome too.

Rules:
  • You have to post ALL the rules.
  • Answer 12 questions you have been asked and then create 12 questions for people you tagged.
  • Choose 12 people.
  • Actually tag these people.
  • Can't say you don't do tags. 
  • Tag backs are allowed
1) Pick one or several Pokemon you relate to. How do you relate to them? (assuming everyone I tag digs Pokemon)
I relate to Espeon and Alolatales. Espeon because they are known to be fiercely loyal to the one person they deem worthy and will protect them at any cost. I relate to Alolatales because they are elusive and tend to hide away, but will take the time to guide people in the right direction... even if that's just to get them to leave their home alone. Not to mention an old friend compared me to an Alolatales, which I took as a compliment. ;w;

2) What game do you always find yourself coming back to, if any?
I always come back to Okami, but there are a lot more I love. Okami is a game I play every year like a tradition... usually with my youngest sister. I've played it too many times to count, and I know almost every secret. The first time I ever played it I was horribly sick with strep throat and I stayed home from school the day after my birthday to finish it. I love this game so much that I've made it a requirement for my significant others to play it.

3) What's something you like that's definitely something nostalgia related?
Ah man... There are a lot of things, but I really enjoy TY Beanie Babies. I don't collect them anymore but I still like them. I could go on a huge tangent about all the things I really like because of nostalgia, but I'll just list them instead of explaining it all; Fruits Basket, Fossil Fighters, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Warrior Cats, Danny Phantom, and Pokemon.

4) If/when you die, what would you like to be known as, in simplest terms? (ex. Alexander the Great, Arthur the Brave, etc.)
Uhhh... I suppose Rachel the Understanding

5) Do you dig Spongebob? If so, what's your favorite Spongebob meme?
Spongebob is pretty good, but I was never super into it. I guess the tough guy meme is pretty good.

6) What's your favorite meme in general?
I really like cursed images and videos at the moment.

7) Describe an animal you'd like to see be real. Be as out there or as realistic as you want.
I really like dragons, but I think I'd like to see a jackalope more than anything.

8) Keeping up with any TV shows right now? If so, which? If not, are there any you'd like to watch?
I'm gonna be honest and say I've only been keeping up with My Hero Academia. My mom watches a lot of shows though, so I passively watch a lot of those ER/Police/Firefighter dramas. I REALLY want to finish Full Metal Alchemist but I gotta wait for my sister to watch it with me.

9) Do you think soccer (football) would be better if every player got one (1) brick and they could do with it what they please?
I'm gonna go ahead and say no... sorry ;D;

10) What piece of media shouldn't exist? You don't gotta be deep.
I don't think anything should be banned, honestly. I think everything should be available for anyone to see, even if I hate it.

11) What was the last thing that pissed you off?
My family were all fighting and slamming things around... I was really mad because it was so obnoxious.

12) Did you do any black friday shopping this year, leaving your house or online?
God no. I like a good deal but I don't want to have to kick people in the junk for what I want.

8 Questions 2.0

Rules:

- Write 8 facts about your character
- Tag 8 people (nah, I'm good)
- Tagbacks are allowed

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

The character requested was Ashen!
Ashen Reference by WhimsicalWoods

1. Ashen cannot fly. His wings are so tattered and ruined that he can no longer lift himself off the ground. He can still stir up a little wind, though!

2. Ashen would never intentionally hurt a child. He can't bring himself to ruin something so pure, even if he mortifies them already.

3. Ashen is fiercely loyal. He would never betray anyone he trusts and he would easily die for any of them. There are only two people he trusts completely, they are Emblem and Whimsy.

4. Emblem is like a brother to Ashen. Ashen was cold to him at first, but over time he grew to like Emblem. They have both been through a lot and they are each other's pillar.

5. Ashen's tail is supposed to look like an ash tree leaf.

6. Ashen learned how to use ice magic under the tutelage of Fate. 

7. Ashen has a special mark on his right palm. This mark is why his father denounced and neglected him.

8. Lumiere and Ashen both have one blind eye, but unlike Lumiere, Ashen's spirit sight didn't come as naturally. Ashen had to train to see spirits as well as Lumiere could immediately.

Character requested: Selene
Wishing by WhimsicalWoods

1. Selene is based on what I want people to see when they meet me. She is essentially an idealized version of myself.

2. Her face is supposed to roughly resemble a "fleur-de-lis". It was a symbol that was very prevalent through out my childhood and I always thought it was beautiful.

3. Selene loves humans with a passion. When she is alone, she likes to walk on her two back legs and tried her best to paint with her front paws. She even tried to dance... but that usually ends in a mess, haha!

4. Selene on all fours runs like a ferret. It's adorable. She could mimic their war dance.... if she really wanted to.

5. Unlike most dragons, Selene does not control any elements. Instead, she has a hallucinogenic smoke that she can use to escape/hide in dangerous situations. If anyone stumbles upon her cave, she will use this smoke to confuse them and drag them far away. This leads many to believe their experiences with her are just dreams.

6. Selene's cave is full of old human relics. She collects old paintings, broken sculptures, polished jewels, pencils, and paper if she can find it. The walls are covered in messy paintings. Despite the clutter, everything is surprisingly well cared for.

7. Selene does not have wings because I feel like I need to crawl my way through life. 

8. Unlike many of my characters, Selene does not have a solid place in my story. I have tried to place her in different situations, but none of them seem to fit. I see her as more of an observer than someone who would take an active role. Her name was originally "Author", but I changed it because Selene is much more fitting.

I will be deleting and re-uploading a rash of art tomorrow, so be prepared for upload spam. I want to fix the way my gallery looks, because as it is, it is a mess. Thank you for your patience!
