Remember her? Viki, my leopardess character that was of the first characters I created. She just turned 3 years old on October 5th. :)

Although it may not look like it, this really took a lot out of me; I had to take several breaks from working on it. Viki is based off of a friend of mine whose friendship with me got really rocky and plummetted to the ground and ended for a while. She still remains close to me and so does her presence in the character, so it is hard to look at Viki in the same way I did before and not see the real figure behind her. But I love her too much to let something like that get in the way.

Happy Birthday, Viki.
