Watchers

Groups

Lots of little things, but several of them I could use your opinions on, watchers! I know it's long, I'm long-winded. Sorry. >.> But I'd really appreciate your input (It's times like these that I consider getting a premium account entirely to use polls…)

1. Legend of Korra. OMFG. I'm in love. Waiting a week between episodes is killing me, I need more. AHH. If you didn't catch on earlier, Bolin has become my favorite character of pretty much anything. Now, to be fair, this happens often, and give it a month or two and he'll fall into his place on my list of characters I love. And Tracey'll probably go back to the top. But for now, BOLIIIINNN. <3<3<3
With this new obsession, though, comes OCs. I blame *xTwilightxSpiritX for this entirely, she did it first. I'd been seriously pondering it, and gave in when she posted hers. Kina, I both hate and love you for this. It screams bad idea, but I don't care. So I'm working on two of them, I'll post arts soon, I'm loving their designs. Also, I'm debating it still, but I think I might make them Aukai ([link])'s grandkids. Just for fun. Why not? He's not paired with anyone, so his future could lead to Korra-era grandchildren. >w>
But, I need name help. What do you like best? Suggestions?
:bulletblue: Male, waterbender, 24. Older brother. I like the idea of him having a longer name that can be shortened to one or two syllables, but not set on it.
                          Akiyo, Akio, Akinori, Akihiro -> Aki; Fai or Fei, both pronounced like Fay;  Kaoru; Koki; Seiki; Xue; or An (would like something longer, can't find anything…)
:bulletblue: Female, non-bender, 16. Younger sister. Just needs a name that doesn't sound like someone else's.
                          Chie; Fei or Fei Yen; Miko; Reina; Sang; Shiori; Yun or Yuna; Zhia

And while on the topic, I can't really do much with these characters this early into the series, but...could be fun to stick our OCs into the same story, if anyone else has any yet... Meh.

2. What do you guys think of adoptables? I lot of people I watch have been doing them recently, and something tells me that it'd be something I'd enjoy. Character design is something I love, but as you know, I only have fifty billion characters I already neglect. So maybe that could be a good use of my time? Does anyone have experience with them and could tell me more? I honestly have NO idea. I do know I'm not the type to actually adopt any from someone else. As noted, too many characters already. But I think it could be fun….whatdya think??

3. This one's been bugging me for a while, and, look, I know no one's reading this, but it's nice to have it all spelled out for me somewhere. You may be vaguely familiar with some of my characters from my non-existant story Elemental Darkness (Shilo, Alexa, Zephyr, Trey, Ri, etc…). Most of the main characters in that story are what are called Elementals, and each has control over some sort of "element," or spirit power, really. For example, Shilo's is Darkness, Alexa's is Time, and Zephyr's is Force.
Well, for the longest time, I've had the character Marcus ([link]) as the Elemental of sight, or vision, or….image. Need to figure out what to call it. When I designed Marcus, over 4 years ago, I knew immediately that he was blind, caused by his power. He could create visions, but not see them himself. Paired with Jey (Knowledge,) he could show the future or past to others. In contrast was the character Sylvester, or Syl, who was the Elemental of Sound, and was equivalently deaf. He had similar psychic abilities with Jey, along with the ability to manipulate sound waves (basically, could make loud sounds out of nothing, or make it hard for others to hear anything). But, I've been thinking, I need to switch those two. Keeping Marcus blind and Syl deaf, but giving Syl the power over sight, and Marcus over sound. Thus, the power dulled their other sense, but it makes more logical sense that it's not so ironic. Syl's glasses can be explained in that he needs them to make his vision worse, otherwise he sees too much?
…. I'm just really hesitant about changing a character I've had worked out for so long. But I like this new idea....
Opinions, please!!

And 4. ATCs/ACEOs? This is definitely WAY for the future, and after I finish that last commission, but…would anyone be interested? I bought some of the cards on a whim last year and have really only sketched one, but they seem like something I'd really enjoy, and they'd be really fun. I know a few of my watchers do them, but do people think that'd be interesting for me to try? Would you be up for trading them??

In other news, 2 more weeks of school. I'm not as stressed as I will be next week. >.> And that last commission's coming soon, promise. And them some art for me. And trades/collabs will be a possibility again. We'll see.

Anyway, that's all. Feedback is awesome, please? Thanks for reading…

I would probably be able to, yes.
However, unfortunately, I don't have access to my sewing machine while I'm away at school, so the earliest I would be able to start working on it would be late May.

I would have to do some research into them first, I've never dealt with them before.
I don't really have much in the lines of pricing figured out yet, either. I've never really done a commissioned plush, just ones for fun...
