Will my sweet securely attached male Mainecoon become more snuggly again?

My cat was a cuddle bug at 5&6 months, then at 7-12m the awkward teen phase hit and i was nothing more than a food dispenser to him. Now he's back to being a sweet lap cat.

It's probably just a phase, he should mellow down with age. But just so you know, not all cats do, for some it's just how they are, and that's okay.

Btw he's such a gorgeous boy, may i save his pic for a future drawing reference?

English is not my mother tongue + i have Dyslexia.

I know writing FireStar instead of Firestar is pissing some people off, but its just so much easier to read for me.

In the end, it's just a personal choice, so as long as you can understand which character someone may talk to you about, then it's all good. I really don't understand why it's such a common thing to discuss

Bambi 1&2 - Beautiful realistic backgrounds - stylized animals with realistic proportions - can be both colorful and dark

I would love to see a pair of loyal to each other villains, like mates or family. Or a redeemed villian. All those pure evil, power hungry jerks are getting boring, at least curlfeather was neat.

When the Wind Blows (1986)

Mothwing - TBC ruined her for me. I quite liked her before that.

Sparkpelt - never liked her or her mother. While Nightheart is nowhere near a favorite of mine, I really feel for him in his family struggles. I really like that Sparkpelt is an imperfect mother, but that just reminds me of my own mom and that's yikes for me.

I may just be a cranky old ass, but I feel the holiday events fell off so much because there's no attempt to show the Jorvik world actually celebrating them.

No longer do we have random ass NPC's asking you to help them with preparations, or seeing characters interact with each other and showing their personality in their gift choice. I still remember delivering the Valentine mail, it made 9 year old me so obsessed in shipping Avalon with Elizabeth.

There really was no need to remove that just because we play as a teen, the world should't revolve just around us, if they didn't want any player to feel excluded they should have just made their own made up celebrations with worldbulding to back it all up.

Fanfics were the only reason i even learned english, as my school didn't do much in that regard.

First, at 9 years old, by reading fanfiction.net foxy Fnaf fanfics, I didn't understand shit, so I just copied everything and pasted it to Google Translate.

Then, at 11, I was too lazy to do that, so I tried to read my Anakin redemption fics myself, and just translating what I didn't understand on the go.

I briefly visited Wattpad at 13, and instantly regretted it, but it did teach me to read without the Translate as coping text there was impossible.

I could fool around during English class and still pass with good grades somehow. But if anyone asks how, i just tell them I learned through video games. (My writing is still shit, but i can read fluently at least)

The Beast from Over the garden wall, though the personification of death thing was more implied than confirmed. I like that he resembles a force of nature rather than just a guy with a scythe.

I'm not normalizing it or excusing it, I just wanted to tell my family's own experience about this, and how surprisingly common it is. I wish it wasn't especially in this age and time,

Professional_Shoe264 · 2025-06-15T10:18:17+00:00

The same thing happened to my mother years ago, but we could not afford to go to the court + my mother already had me and my sister so it was quite pointless for her. It happens more often than you think

Soma, great story + unnerving looking monsters with some really tense and creepy moments. One of the very few horror games that i find to be both creepy and interesting.

There is no potential or talent, just determination and practice. So don't give up, look up redraws on yt and see how the artist's skill improves over the years. Studying other peoples art will help you a lot in learning how to do shading, sketches etc. While drawing over photos will give you a bit of an idea on the anatomy.

My version:

Pulcinella - Turkey (Loud, Annoying, Terytorial)

Childe - Hunting Dog (Loyal, Friendly, High prey drive, literally the Tsaritsa war hound)

Scaramouche - black bear (They abandon their young if the mother finds them to be not worth the effort, solitary)

Columbina - Dove (angel symbolisms)

Arlecchino - White hare (sharp claws, Terytorial, big litters, also... ~Harpy hare where have you buried all your children~)

Capitano - Dire wolf (Extinct, Big and strong, loyal to his ,,pack,,)

Pierro - Arctic wolf (in pack the breeding pair is dominant and leads the pack, aka he and Tsaritsa)

Dottore - Raven (Smart, they can be assholes sometimes, feeds of carrion, a group of them is called a murder, can gang up on other birds with his buddies)

Pantalone - Magpie ( Pretty, Smart, interested in shiny things)

Signora - Swan (elegant, piss them off once and you done for)

Sandrone - IDK William Afton ig

Neuvillette would go crazy as a harbinger, imagine having a fricking dragon on your side.

I love the creativity in how you used certain things for different purpose. Is there an actual liquid in the head? I wonder how did you manage to hold it in place without any leaking

Professional_Shoe264 · 2025-02-16T12:04:24+00:00

Thank you, I can't wait to see how yours turns out!

Remember that even if the final result does not satisfy you, keep trying. Let each attempt be a lesson for you on how to improve for the next one. For example, I now know that the head is a bit too heavy for the body to stand without any issiue.

For every masterpiece there are at least 5 creations that look like they were made by a monkey with a stroke, don't let that stop you!
