ear
The ears are definitely the part of the head that I've been dreading the most, because I've always struggled to make them work. I was never 100% satisfied with the ear results on past heads, so this time I'm trying a different method. It's based on TinnatuPaws's ear patterns, not actually printing and using any of them directly because I wanted that front border to have a slightly different shape, but taking the general method/idea. Took a couple hours to put together a working pattern because I only had a vague idea of what I was doing, and I guess the final look is pretty similar to TinnatuPaws's canine ear design anyways so perhaps it would've been easier to just use that one directly but w/e too late now. I think it turned out pretty alright, but of course the real test will come once I actually put fur on it.
These ears also probably look a tad on the large side for a standard housecat--that was intentional; I'm a bit worried about this head base being a bit too small compared to the other parts of the suit so I'm gonna try compensating by exaggerating the ears, head floof, and cheek floofs a bit. This base already has proportionally very large eyes so I think I can get away with it. Fingers crossed!
I did try on my previous head with the new body the other day to get a better idea of the size ratio and it looked alright, though while the base for my previous head is similar in size to this new one, I do think it might be sliiiiiightly larger overall, even accounting for the fact that it has fur and this one doesn't yet. Hopefully the difference won't be all that significant and I won't be walking around with a comically tiny head, but as with the ear method, the real test won't be till I actually fur it. So....we shall see.

❣️ Naughty Babe - I'm loving this so much lol it's so silly but the comedy is so brilliant and so far I'm enjoying it more than Cutie Pie lol. The story is interesting and MaxNat's acting has improved a lot since CP which is nice. Definitely an unexpected nice little gem and also a band-aid for the soul after the OF-trauma every Saturday dskjhf

My brother said something the other day about how no-one could prove if the current anti-Israel boycotts are actually making an impact cuz there could be other reasons people aren't eating at McDonald's or whatever
But besides the fact that there are many articles easily find-able online saying that the companies are aware of and feeling the impact of such protests, and some are even making some changes, I needed to make a point to him about why I participate in boycotts whether they're successful or not
But my brother tends to get annoyed and stop listening whenever I talk real politics, so I tried to make a really simple analogy
Let's say there's a man outside our house, and he is just beating people to death with sticks. Not people from our neighborhood, but still, people. We can't call the cops to stop him, because they think he's doing a great job. And we can close the blinds and ignore him, but he's still there and we know it.
And he has a big pile of sticks, so when one breaks he can get another to beat the next person to death with
So one day you have to go outside and the man turns to you and says, "Hey. Can you pass me a stick?"
And maybe it doesn't matter if you do or not. Maybe someone else will give him a stick anyway, or he'll get one on his own, or he'll start punching people
But I don't want to give him a stick.
And maybe I can't stop him, but I at least don't want to help him
At this point my brother tried to make a joke (because that's what he always does in every conversation) and he said something like "What if you don't give him the stick and then he beats YOU to death"
And I was like, "That's a great point, actually, because the Yemeni wouldn't let weapons shipments through their waterways so Israel bombed them."
And the analogy was broken but. I hope I made my point
Maybe I don't have the power as an individual half a world away to stop a genocide. But I at least want to not contribute to it

i hate character design but i drool when i get the chance to do it
i hate character design its so time consuming and its so much effort and it forces me to think and---
hey girlie
wanna design this character?
OMG YES YES YES YES YES PLEASE!!!
........
so
anyways
Nakshatra (नक्षत्र)
and
Yumi (由美)
hmmmm
so naksha tara is star map which is ehhhh close enough. star ->star
yumi is purpose and beauty which is ehhhh
im brainstorming here. not a fan of either of those
........
Chayavati (छायावती)
chaya + vati is like shadows + association suffix = associated with the shadows
so if you stretch your brain enough, it could imply treachery
-1 i hate it
-1.5 you can tell which language it is but not the meaning
-2.5 doesnt start with an S
-3.5 not very thoughtful
kanksa (काङ्क्षा) is like desire and longing. honestly fitting considering the whole plotline about [redacted]
-1 you can tell which language it is and search up the meaning
-2 doesnt start with an S
+1 fits his general themes very well
Saktyasa (शक्त्याशा) is hope for power. so -> desire for power. actually if anyone names their child any of this shit no wonder he went batshit. like--
+1 point because it starts with an S
+2 the spelling makes it almost impossible to tell which language it is and what it means
+3 because i also dont know the language so its even better if i messed up (last i knew of this language was like 10 years ago in meditation school so fuck me)
-1 doesnt encompass as many themes as i like
-2 sounds like exotic gibberish enough to get me cancelled for racism
forget him lets go fuck up some kanji
風刃 kanji for wind + kanji for blade HAHAHA im AAAAAAAAAA
ok so thats a kanji pair so more than likely its onyomi reading right?
so then i think together its read like fujin? is it? on for 風 is fu and for 刃 its jin or nin? in names it seems to be jin
ok so 風刃 is fujin (?)
+1 literally her name
-1 literally her name
善心. 善 is virtuous and onyomi is "zen". 心 is heart/mind and onyomi is shin
zenshin
-1 i dont like it
+1 its true
強志. 強 is strong with onyomi as kyou and gou (i could not tell you which one is to be used). 志 is resolve with onyomi shi
so its either kyoshi or goshi.
+1 i like it
+2 its true
-1 i dont know japanese so i cant tell which reading
back to him
I could name him Sanki
it means strange/eccentric/crazy
+1 starts with an S
+2 captures his entire personality
-1 easy to figure out which language and meaning
ill keep it as his nickname. like screamer was supposed to be derogatory nickname, this is derogatory nickname too.
maybe change the romanization to Sanky
Saktyasa nickname Sanky
