    When I start showing signs of nonexistence, then you can tell me to stop. But right now, I'm me. I am not defined by my characters, my stories, or my drawings any more than you are.

    I doodled a minor outfit redesign for Chip, as well as a human version, because I was bored.

    Surprise! Last but certainly not least, I sketched @Tatterdemalion 's Kathleen Jones (from his story, Substellar Vagary) with her new, shorter hairstyle.

    Looks great! Mind if I put it in Substellar Vagary's art section?

    Whoops I made another new character. This guy was created as an idea for a certain storyline, but most likely won't show up until far in the future. Here's hoping I remember him when it comes time to put him in!
    Due to... things... his "hair" is made up of, well, prehensile vines. They aren't sentient, but they sometimes seem that way, as he's unused to having them and may do something like trip over one. He's really not as much of a threat as the sketch makes him look. :p
    I gave him the name of Stema because I'm apparently still having trouble coming up with names for Florans and I really liked the name suggestions that @Lonewolf239 made. (I know it was supposed to be a girl name, but with Florans it shouldn't matter so much.) How would you pronounce the name, by the way? Would it be like STAY-ma, or STEM-ah, or what?

    More modern clothing, yet still reminiscent of Glitch fashion. It's made out of modern materials but worn as he's used to. I never realized how tall Gedath was... Not overly, but I mean, when compared to Varc, yeah - she was kinda short, but he's also kinda tall. And no, I didn't mean to give him ape arms. >_>

    A lazy sketch of Karia. I'm sorely in need of some motivation... >_>

    Sorta unrelated, but I'm gonna be on fall break next week. That means vacation, so I might not be as active here as usual...

    You might've seen this already, but I drew this piece of pixel art yesterday. It didn't seem to fit Suci's art thread (I couldn't give a good reason for her to make it) so here it is.

    So I decided to draw something in a little more... stylized style. I hope you guys like Avians...

    Her name is Ilaxani, and she's going to be a landlord! (She's Atali's mom.)

    Sorry, that first image wasn't supposed to be there and I thought I had removed it. Bad code, no cookie for you!

    Some fan-art I did - not exactly Starbound related - for Crossfang's Shop. It may seem small right now, but I assure you it will grow as more people join.[DOUBLEPOST=1442767897][/DOUBLEPOST]
    Short backstory on Ilaxani:
    Ilaxani did not always have the name of Stormbringer. That came after she married Myra. Before then, she was mainly known as Sharpbeak, for her sometimes cutting remarks, witty comebacks, and tendency to snap at people. She was intelligent, but clung to tradition and was slow to accept new ways (even after she seemed to accept them, it was often only begrudgingly). This habit was inherited from her own father, who despite being a Grounded was very traditional in his ways.
    She met Myra when both were adults. Myra had only recently escaped the persecution of the Avian home planet, and he was wary of tradition. He slowly grew to trust Ilaxani and her family, though.
    Once together, Myra and Ilaxani first started a business, a lodging service mainly for tourists and newcomers. Then they raised four children - two boys and one girl, and one last girl nearly 16 years younger than the others. This last child was Atali, who befriended a young Novakid named Sucrose. Myra and Ilaxani eventually had to foster Sucrose, as her parents died of an illness while they and she were with the Stormbringers. (This wasn't the Stormbringers' fault, as they knew nothing of Novakid illnesses. Rather, the Novakid should have been more careful about it... but Novakid aren't known for being careful.)
