I'm not sure how one could do it, but it'd be epic.

PapillonCameo 01-28-2013 08:16 PM

It would be ...

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2013 08:17 PM

that it would.

omg! *spaz spaz* someone finally posted in one of my OC art requests! First time I haven't had to go into an art shop and ask for art. *dies happy* I want to save that email notification.

Wings of Writing 01-28-2013 08:18 PM

ah that's happy.
Who do they want to draw?

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2013 08:19 PM

they haven't specified yet. I can't wait to see who they pick. They said my oc's are awesome though, so I'm happy.

Wings of Writing 01-28-2013 08:20 PM

PapillonCameo 01-28-2013 08:21 PM

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2013 08:26 PM

PapillonCameo 01-28-2013 08:30 PM

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2013 08:32 PM

PapillonCameo 01-28-2013 08:33 PM

Bye Wings!

Kat Dakuu 01-28-2013 11:46 PM

I'm back from class, though I need to go eat dinner soon. mondays are so busy.

PapillonCameo 01-29-2013 12:17 AM

And I was just about to start writing that rp ... XD Cause I finally figured out my character's name, and from there everything else will flow.

Kat Dakuu 01-29-2013 12:25 AM

you have a hard time picking character names? i usually have an easy time of it, but it can be hard. I was googling for the perfect name for my bad guy in that short story. still don't think I got it, but I was searching for some time.

PapillonCameo 01-29-2013 12:28 AM

Well I take a while to pick names, because usually my idea for the whole character stems from that and nothing else. It's like ... Trying to find an actor without knowing their name. It's hard, nearly impossible, and then when you stumble on the name everything just falls into place.

Kat Dakuu 01-29-2013 12:32 AM

I go on things by instinct. sometimes it's the first thing that pops in my head, sometimes I search. I just go through types of names, but I figure if a name pops into my head, it popped up there for a good reason. it's a little more tricky when I need the name to specifically tell something. Like I needed Permute to refer to change, but I didn't want it obvious. I dunno. it depends on how creative of a mood I'm in.

PapillonCameo 01-29-2013 12:34 AM

Well when it comes to place names and such I'm not nearly so picky, lol

Kat Dakuu 01-29-2013 12:44 AM

I name my characters whatever I fancy. lately I've been stealing names or similar sounding ones from whatever I'm interested in like a kpop idol or something. things that I'm madly in love with. I used to be so much more picky, but after you have as many characters as I do, you just picking whatever you haven't used before.

and now I must go to class!! *sad waves* I'll be back!!

sailor star rainbow 01-29-2013 01:30 AM

I all ways try think up names are look at babyname website. to help me out when I get stuck when I need a new name.

PapillonCameo 01-29-2013 01:34 AM

How many characters do you have Kat? I have over forty ..

Ooh I have this babyname book that I use all the time, though I really need to find another one because this one is falling apart.

sailor star rainbow 01-29-2013 02:47 AM

Heck sometimes I'll even use names form mangas for fun are a anime. it depends on how long it takes me to think up a name.

Kat Dakuu 01-29-2013 03:00 AM

papi, I will answer that question in a bit. but really, I've lost track.

I use a baby name website from time to time. I like to use ones that tell you the origin and meaning of the name.

PapillonCameo 01-29-2013 03:04 AM

I forced myself to count them all , and I keep making more! Lorn is a new kind of guy for me actually ...

I like using the websites, when not a book
