October 2011 OCTOBER 31ST Wee... midnight and you know what that means! All the Halloween adoptables have retired for the year! But don't worry, you'll see them again next year! ^_^ Night everyone! I'll have new adoptables for you in the morning! OCTOBER 31ST
Happy Halloween! OCTOBER 30TH
Only one more day 'til Halloween! XD I'm so excited! For today, we have some tasty treats for you, your pets, and anyone else you'd like to share them with! I give you: Mirin-Brand Cookies! We have three flavors for you: Chocolate Chip (shortened to Choc. Chip), White Chocolate Chip Fudge (shortened to Wht. Chip), and Peanut Butter (shortened to Pnt. Butr.). I'm using the shortened names so none of the name gets cut off ^_^' . Anyway, in each bag is a single cookie that looks... well, open it and find out! Each bag "opens" at level 5 and then the cookie comes out at level 15! Enjoy~! *munches a cookie* OCTOBER 29TH
Two new ones today~! Why only two? Well, I've got some... stuff I'm trying to get ready for Halloween and I've been busting my butt trying to get it all done in time! But! You won't be disappointed with today's adopts, I promise! ^_^ Up first we have yet another Experiment: X-09. This one is... slightly less dangerous so I've lowered the open-at level (see description). It was designed mostly for defense but it still has some offensive capability. The second is an odd Bonsai mutation. It grows at the same rate as a regular Bonsai, but it's proportions... well, you'll just have to wait and see ^_^ Enjoy! OCTOBER 28TH
Alright~! Now that the level bug is fixed, all of you who were waiting for some kind of spoiler for the rest of the critters can see a few in my favorites. Click more and you'll get more spoilers! Anyway, onto today's adoptables! OCTOBER 27TH
Announcement: I've clicked around and after waiting a bit, I've seen my clicks register! I believe the bug has been fixed! OCTOBER 26TH
Only two new ones today, but I worked really hard on them! First up we have the Coffee Whisker, which is inspired by those really cool/beautiful designs you can make with the coffee cream that floats on top. Don't know what I'm talking about? Do a Google Image search for coffee art and see what I mean! Up next is the Burnt Bonsai... which is still smoking. Erm... "only you can prevent Bonsai fires" right? Anyway, I'm sure you will all enjoy them both! OCTOBER 25TH
Today we have a couple of different things. First up are the Punk Foxes (Pink and Blue varieties!). Originally, the Sky Fox was supposed to be a Punk coloration type, but I got led astray by something shiny... SO! Today we have the truly punked-out foxes, complete with stripey socks, chains, and faux hawks. XD Next we have two new Bonsai: the Star Tree and Sunset varieties. Star Tree is absolutely GORGEOUS (in my opinion) and has lots of glowing and intricate markings. The Sunset Bonsai is mostly an exploration of color (no major lineart changes) but trust me, you won't be disappointed! Enjoy~! OCTOBER 24TH
Alright, an interesting twist for the foxes, but first we have the beautiful Jade Bonsai! It took quite a while to recreate the look of real jade, so I do hope you enjoy it as much as I do! The next two are the Twin Foxes Yin and Yang. This is the first time I've ever attempted a two-part adoptable, so I do hope it works to everyone's expectations. I'm proud of it, but we'll see what you all think! OCTOBER 23RD
Now I know not too many people like them, but I am FASCINATED by the patterns on snakes. I chose a couple of my favorites for now, but I know I'll be doing more snake scale patterns in the future. They're just so pretty and interesting! Up first though we have: Puff Adder Fox (beautiful diamond like markings), Garter Fox (based on the Texas Garter Snake), King Snake (red next to black is the venom they lack, red next to yellow will kill a fellow... that's how you tell the difference between the King Snake and the Coral snake!), and the ultimate movie-villain snake the Boa Constrictor Fox! Enjoy and I'll have an extra-special set of foxes for you all tomorrow! Please look forward to it! OCTOBER 22ND
Today's theme is edible things! Specifically cake and chocolate~! Mmm... Now I'm hungry XD First up are the "cake" Foxes. Why the quotation marks? Well, read the descriptions and you'll understand why. Then we have the Chocolate Bon-bo--I mean Bonsai. XD White and Milk chocolate of course. I may release a Dark chocolate one later (around Christmas time or something), but for now we have these two. Enjoy~! OCTOBER 21ST
Yawn... Foo, I slept until 9:30am without even stirring... and it's FREEZING in my house right now! I've got gloves on, a coat, socks and a thick shirt... and I'm still cold! Hah... OCTOBER 20TH Woof... I'm finally home and it's... 7pm x_X This has been one heck of a day. I didn't really sleep and ended up riding over to the school around 6am this morning. Then the day proceeded with pops, bangs, and screams as the Chemistry class I was observing played around with Gas Laws and dry ice. I still have a residual headache from all the noise, but I was still laughing the entire time. XD Then, once the school day was done (around 2:30pm) I went and sat in on a lecture on how to be a guest judge (though I had done this before). Got some snacks (the only thing I'd eaten at that point) and went to go do my judging thing. One kid (teenager, whichever you prefer) didn't have the Product half of his presentation, but otherwise the four people I got to sit in on did extremely well. It was fun to watch, but I didn't get to leave until 5:30. I finally got home, crashed on the couch with a mug of hot chicken noodle soup and watched Stargate Universe for an hour before coming up here to type all this. OCTOBER 20TH
New species! These are called Mirin Whiskers and are a combination cat and fish, though honestly I think they have more fish than cat in them. Either way, I hope you enjoy them! You can see a spoiler of the Common variety in the Spoiler section below (scroll down). I'm particularly fond of the Koi Whisker. It's very pretty and I can't wait 'til the leveling bug lifts for all of you to see. ^_^ OCTOBER 19TH
Phew... The last four of the Gemstone Foxes! Alright! *waves her hands in the air happily* Ah, an important note (to those of you who actually read this reel anyway), the gemstone foxes will all be made private at the start of the new year. From that point on, only the gemstone of the month will be available for adoption (Garnet in January, Amethyst in February, etc.). So get them while you can! Thanks to everyone for being so patient! Tomorrow's adoptables will come VERY early tomorrow morning since I have a lot of stuff I need to get done tomorrow, but I'll leave that for tomorrow's post. Enjoy~! ^_^ OCTOBER 18TH
Next four of the Gemstone foxes! We have: Emerald (May), Alexandrite (June), Ruby (July), and Peridot (August). Sparkly~! Hehe, anyway, I hope you all enjoy them! The last four will arrive tomorrow. OCTOBER 17TH
Whee! The first four of the birthstone set! Garnet (January), Amethyst (February), Aquamarine (March), and Diamond (April)! Now, I well aware of the fact that March can be interpreted as having the Bloodstone for the traditional birthstone, but I personally like Aquamarine better, thus I colored the fox that way. If your birth-month comes up and it's a stone you're not familiar with, I apologize but I'm not changing it. ^_^ I have several good reasons for choosing to do which stones that I did! Anyway, enjoy! I'm off to continue work on my new banner. XD OCTOBER 16TH
Four new Bonsai for everyone! This time the theme is "seasons" since I thought it was utterly appropriate given that the Bonsai are (basically) half plant. The Spring Bonsai is based off of a Dogwood (in spring obviously); Summer is a Japanese Maple; Fall is a Birch (I love Birch trees~); and Winter is a White Pine (based off of anyway, I was being lazy and didn't redraw the earlier leaves to look like needles. bad Mirin!). OCTOBER 15TH
Whee... Just made it in time. x_X OCTOBER 14TH Woof... I'm pretty ill at the moment. I don't know whether or not I'll be able to post on time tomorrow, so this is to give everyone a heads-up. If you come on Squiby tomorrow and don't see any adoptables from me at the time, it's probably because I'm still sleeping (I sleep a lot when I'm sick). I will post new critters tomorrow, but I can't give a specific time. OCTOBER 14TH
I present the March Hare and Cheshire Foxes! Ahh, you'll notice that the Cheshire Fox is not readily available. ^_^ Hidden on my profile page is a tricky cat that likes to appear and disappear. Look for him and follow him to where the Cheshire Fox hides! Also, as it is password protected, there are two words listed as tags on the egg. One of those two words is the password! Hint! One of the words is broken up into two parts! OCTOBER 13TH
... Was there another post on this day? OCTOBER 13TH
New species! Yay~! They're called "Bonsai" because of the twisting trees that grow on these creatures backs. They are herbivores (meaning they eat plants, but maybe that might make them cannibals? x_X) and grow to the metaphorical size of a Chow (a breed of dog). These guys are somewhat based on guinea pigs since I think they're cute (and thus I have three of them at home!). I hope you enjoy them and just to let you all know I have posted a spoiler. It's at the very bottom of the Spoiler scroll-section-thingy. Enjoy! OCTOBER 12TH
I actually had the idea for the Scroll Fox first and it is by far my favorite of the two. I like the Music one as well, but I may expand out to different types of music at a later date. As a note, please look forward to tomorrow! There won't be any new foxes, but I'll be introducing a new species of adoptable (and yes there will be a spoiler added to the end of my current list, so no worries!). Please look forward to it~! OCTOBER 11TH
I love tigers~! They're so pretty and have such intricate patterns... I couldn't choose between the Orange and White Tiger Foxes if my life depended on it! I hope you all enjoy them as much as well. ^_^ OCTOBER 10TH
After working so diligently on the Angel and Demon foxes, I wanted to do something sweet and simple. I'm forever in love with calicos of all varieties and I loved the movie Milo and Otis so I decided to create the Calico and Marmalade Foxes! Have a wonderful day/night~! OCTOBER 9TH
Two fresh adoptables! Originally, X-13 and these two were supposed to come out at the same time, but I had to switch things around due to a slight miscalculation on my part. But! The Demon and Angel Mirin Foxes as now here for your adopting wants! Enjoy ^_^ OCTOBER 8TH Ah, much better. Now that I have my lovely X-13 (aka Kaleb) on my page like this, it feels like my profile has finally taken on its true look. Though that may just be me. XD No, this is not what the X-13 will look like in the adult stage (as far as pose goes anyway). Since Squiby seems to be having level troubles, I figure this is the best way to quell my itch to see Kaleb all grown up. ^_^ OCTOBER 8TH
Three adoptables for you all today! And number 13 (the 13th adoptable I created in total) is an extra-special one because I love the number. ^_^ The two Ink foxes should also be fun to raise, so please take care of them well! OCTOBER 7TH
Two new foxes for you all to adopt! The Radioactive and Biolume foxes~! I love doing glow effects, but let me tell you--it's hard to keep that glow inside the image borders! I dislike having obvious cut-offs to my images, so I had to fiddle with it a lot. XD Anyway, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! I have a special little idea for my 13th adoptable, so please look forward to it! OCTOBER 6TH
Huzzah! The Olive Mirin Fox has been promoted! I-I'm touched! *sniff* I'm so happy to receive so many comments both exalting and thanking me for the foxes. I'm energized and excited! I'll continue to do my best from now on! OCTOBER 6TH
Alright, another day, another set of foxes~! The Sky Mirin Fox is my official current favorite and I hope you will all enjoy it as well. I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying life! OCTOBER 5TH
Two new foxes for your adoption wants! I present: Rose and Olive Mirin Foxes! I hope you enjoy them~! ^_^ OCTOBER 4TH
To start things off, four cute little adoptables! The first three are foxes, but what about that last one? It's a surprise just for Halloween (my favorite holiday!). Be aware though, that little pumpkin is only available until the end of October 31st EST! OCTOBER 4TH New news reels... smells like a new car. ^_^ | November 2011 In progress! |
