More drawing about~> Me

This was actually a drawing meme I plan to do a while ago.
But never really bothered to, and only really did a journal for it. Till now!

It's surprising to me, how long I've been on this platform. Geez I feel old now!
It's nice to reminisce on how I've changed over the years, and the adjustments I have done to myself.
Before my character used to be very uninspired, generic, creepy and boring. Now, it's truly something
I am very proud of! I would have never got this character if I haven't bothered to changed her over the
years. This is why I encourage other character creators to adjust there characters once in awhile, If you
don't you will never improve your characters and will eventually lose interest in it. Even if it's only minor
changes, or removal of certain features. Go for it! It will all be worth it in the end!

Story of my character-

2015-2016~  www.deviantart.com/miaminks/ar…
This was one of my first ever character designs, a creepy robotlike fox thing. That was heavily inspired by fnaf.
I've had this character even before I made my deviantART account, and unfortunately most of the images of this
character has been lost to time. The only one being the last one on my deviantART account.

2016~  www.deviantart.com/miaminks/ar…
Okay this one is a bit closer to the design you guys know now. This was actually for a group page called Chantler-Species .
It was a small group page that was with a few friends of mine, they had a few rules when creating a character
for this group page. So taking these rules on board, I designed the character. And I decided to design a character
that was based off a wendigo. (Wouldn't suggest you looking up if you're squeamish or young) But the basic
premise of these creatures are, Humans who have been driven mad with starvation and have become a deer/man
hybrid after consuming human flesh out of desperation. Appropriate, I know. So that's what I was into back in
those days, I was a really messed up kid then.. =.=''

2017~  www.deviantart.com/miaminks/ar…
This is probably something you guys recognise more, if you been on my page for a long time. This was at my
peak popularity, when I used to have my Bendy asks. But anyways, this is kind of a combination of the original
2016 design, and a leaning towards a cat. I didn't mean her to look like a cat, but people started mentioning it
and it kinda grew on me. The gemstone in the chest was meant to represent Steven universe, and the feathered
hair clip was based on Hawaiian culture as I was quite interested in that. There was just too many details to keep
track of, And in the end I didn't find as fun to draw her any more. I decided to revamp.

2018~  www.deviantart.com/miaminks/ar…
You guys will definitely recognise this one, if you didn't recognise the other one. This is where I fully embraced
the catlike design of my character, and pushed more heavily onto the paintbrush tail. That has now grown iconic
to my brand. I also gave her a colour scheme that was similar to me, as I do have blue eyes and blonde hair.
She felt more personal, she felt more like me. The only reason I changed this one, was because it didn't have as
many details. And it seemed a bit too plain for my liking.

2019~  www.deviantart.com/miaminks/ar…
And now we are here, with my current design! It's been a long journey with my character, but it has been well worth it.
I took most inspiration from the original 2018 design, as I still really loved that design. But decided to put a few added
details to her. To give her a bit more to look at.

It is a these moments you think.. Geez, I'm really flipping old. =w='
I'm just glad you didn't bear witness to my 2016 phase, Grim.
Now that would have definitely been embarrassing! Lol

But love to see if you try to one of these as well, Grim.
It be fun to see what your character used to like! >:3c
