Title: Totally new...
Post by: Maynecoon on January 14, 2012, 09:53:35 AM
Um so I feel a little odd jumping in here without having a complete hold on my character...


But I really like the feel of the whole fandom, and after enjoying it from the sidelines, whether it was the general warmth and humor of it, or the amazing art and creativity, I finally decided to join in.


So.. uhm.. what I have so far?


Species: Maine Coon
Favorite color: Blue
What I'm looking for on the forums: Help with character development, and some tips on my artwork, since I get my ideas out best on paper.


I guess I'm a bit nervous to be here because I'm recently going through some self change. Excepting that I like what I like, and shouldn't care about others. So it's all part of becoming myself in my eyes, and meeting/creating a newer, happier me is sort of a daunting task.


Sorry to dump me emotional..stuff on here during a meet and greet post  @.@


Edit: Oh thank god there is a modify button!


Well I totally forgot that I am a person who enjoys things! And that a stanger just might want t know that information before posting an awkwardly uninformed greeting.  X3


Okay, so... I'm a nerd. so much in fact that my license plate is "SONERDY" and I spent my 18th birthday at chuck e. cheeses (like a boss)
My birthday before that was fallout 3 themed...which leads me to the first item on a list.


 I love video games,
 anime,
 cons of all kinds,
 I'm slowly learning to play Magic the gathering,
 I talk quite a bit,
 I am "overly" friendly
 Insanely self conscious (but getting better <3)
 I plan on getting a pet skunk and naming her Stella
 
And that's all I've got right now... It's 5am so lets hope I don't read this tomorrow and realize I sounded like a drunk the whole time.


With Love,
Me <3

Sorry about that. The first few posts require verification in order to ward off spammers. A couple more posts and it will no longer be necessary. ;)

We do have a chat room. The link can be found in the menu at the top of the forum.

Also, you can fill out contact information (for things like Skype or MSN) in your profile, if you want people to be able to find it.

Hello Maynecoon and welcome to the forum (and fandom)~


Hope you're enjoying it so far! If so feel free to continue enjoying it and if not well at least you gave it a shot~


As far as jumping in without a clear character idea, you're fine! When I first came here, I had no clue what I wanted my fursona to be  XD


Anywho, hope you're having a blast here!

Yea I put in Mainecoon as the species, but im honestly not sure yet. I think it's something I need to give more time too. Maynecoon was a nickname for a character from a different fandom, so it just seemed comfortable to make /her/ fursona, and not my own yet.

If you were wondering, I made a character for Hetalia... But this is honestly my first time making a character for myself
