I bet you didn't see this coming, but let me introduce you guys to my very first very own sona :D It took quite some time, I know...^^ So for those who didn't know, until now I used Estella to talk to you because I didn't have any avatar I could speak through. And even my older attempt for a sona was based 90% on Stella. And that led to a ton of confusion with a lot of you...^^; Many of my readers identified Stella with me, and that slowly became a problem, because Stella is a character with her own personality and story. And over the years it really started to bother me… So for the past year I was thinking about what kind of avatar I could make for myself. And it turned out to be a much harder thing than I anticipated… ^^ But as months passed by, I realised I have a few “quirks” I could nicely implement in a character :D The first thing was my “food memory.” That means I can remember every single detail about anything if I remember what I was eating when it was happening. It is… a very specific talent, I know ^^ And I realised that in general I think a lot about food and like to eat in general a bit more than one should… So those are clearly traits for a pig! But while pigs can be cute too, something is missing from them. They don't have enough... fluff! So after much thinking I know what I have to go with: A BOAR! They are “pigs,” so they like eating, but they are also fluffy, they have a lot of brown (I love the colour brown, don't laugh!) have adorable ears, can have some stripes (I know it's a bit of a stretch, but after Stella I just couldn't give up stripes!) and they also have one extra detail: tusks! And I'm sure I'm not the first artist who thought you could use the tusks to show emotions if you turn them into cartoony rubber, but I just adore this idea so much :D So this is my sona: a fluffy, chubby boar :) I would also like to think of this design as “version 1.0,” because I'm still not 100% sure how to make it completely mine. I had no proper sona until now, after all. So I will allow myself to make some design or colour changes after I draw my fluffy pig many times and get to know her better^^
Nothing against the color brown, it is one of my favorite as well. But you are right, I didn't saw this coming. Still it is nice that you have your own sona now instead of using a character from your stories. And I find the idea with the boar interesting.
