Sorry for the random question, but did you ever design for virtual pet sites?

Yes I did! Most notably Subeta and Misticpets, though I did a few one-off commissions for some smaller sites that never took off.

I wonder if this will be an interesting throwback for anyone! Stumbled upon a small stash of art that I couldn't find posted anywhere in my gallery. Most of these are from the 2010 era when I worked for Misticpets for a short time.

@laggysoldier​ Oh boy what virtual pet website don’t I like?

Allow me to introduce to y’all my pixel babies:

My Neopets. They run a cosmetics & candle company. Janraye owns and manages the business, he’s desperately trying (and repetitively failing) to get his shop to be an official npc shop. Zoudiaq (pronounced “zodiac”) goes out into the wildernesses across Neopia to discover exotic plant ingredients to use as fragrance, she’s on an endless and fruitless quest to find Lutari Island. Qinia breeds plant samples Zoudiaq brings in the garden and has a rustic lab in an old barn for making essential oils and stuff, but she sucks at growing plants and secretly had to make a pack with dark faeries in order to grow anything. Sqwone (pronounced “squown”) just owns the house they all live in. He’s a slacker who secretly raids Meridell villages at night for fun.

My Marapets. They’re a witch coven living in a leaning, run-down tower within their beloved evil sorceress queen’s (Queen Eleka’s) castle complex. They’re the youngest coven in the queen’s magical army, thus very inexperienced, but enthusiastic to help their queen take over the world of Marada. Unltraviolet is the leader, she’s a warlock and the strongest physically in battle. Belindabee is a J-pop inspired lolita-dressed musical celebrity who tours the world singing performances that have subliminal messaging that brainwashes the masses into swearing allegiance to Queen Eleka. Sayri is a Nightmare witch who’s physically frail, but can fall asleep on demand to astral project her much more powerfully heavy-hitting spirit, and can invoke nightmares into her opponents (think Darkrai from Pokemon). Seolfor is made of cheese right now but I plan on turning him into a candle. He’s the only coven member who isn’t at all sinister, he’s naively fun loving, likes carnivals and is an amateur clown who practices illusionary magic (think pulling rabbits out of hats, that stuff). Cebolinha (pronouced “Se-bowl-leen-ha)” is the only non-coven member in the household, he’s a (permanent) house guest with nowhere else to live, and he’s a journalist who reports on world politics, particularly the world leaders (Queen Eleka, King Baspinar, The Sultan, a guy in a jelly castle after world domination, etc.)

My Subeta pets. They live in a rural cottage in a temperate pine forest called Veta and basically just live my cottagecore dreams. Xew owns the property, he maintains a huge garden of veggies and flowers, and keeps a shrine in a shed for rabbit spirits that visit the garden. Everyone else are people whom came to live in later. Hydrero spends most of the year working onboard a cargo ship called the Freyalise, making an income for the family. Floffy is a sarcastic and deadpan amateur inventor and junk food junkie. Gius is a vaporwave loving, cassette tape collecting, pulpy horror watching 80s nerd who’s super lonely, and she uses dark love magic to try to summon a girlfriend. Aescula is an urban explorer who films and photographs abandoned or decaying places that’s anywhere from dead malls in Centropolis to underground towns populated by zombies. Avoir is from the Rift, a 4th dimensional realm (my headcannon), and won’t shut up about how great that place is, he makes paintings and zines about the Rift, and nags at people at how “primitive” the 3rd dimension is (think the Sphere from Flatland).

My Verpets. All live in an abandoned district of a metropolis city that’s decaying and overgrown. Amaranth is a old fashioned Mickey Mouse-type cheery guy and a herbalist, Ishnu is a sea witch who has no touch with reality because she insists on drinking sea water regularly thinking it’ll give her the powers of the SEA. Macrauchenia is an urban witch (have you noticed I like witches?) who grew up on the tough downtown streets of the district before it depopulated, she likes rap music and cheesy 2000s pop songs like Darude Sandstorm and gets rough and tumble with any intruders stumbling into the district. They all primarily live the old apartment Mac grew up in, but have set up bases and hideouts all around the ghost town of a city district.

My Ichumon. Currently has no personality because Ichumon is boring.

My Rescreatu. Whom are all dead because they can actually die really easily and because Rescreatu is even more boring. But back in the day they were basically a feral clan of warriors that was a carbon copy of the Warriors cat series, even being called Bloodclan haha. If I ever revive any of them they’re going to need a complete character redesign, and I’m not interested in doing so now (possibly never).

[EDIT] I nearly forgot my Misticpets! They’re both partners in crime who are constantly on the run, traveling all over the world. Rickochet is the Eddy-from-Ed,Edd and Eddy-type “mastermind” who swindles passerbys out of their money, and he loves jewelry. Cocody is the nearly mute manger of the duo’s funds and treasures, and is a expert on tax evasion, also they like to doodle in a nature journal throughout the duo’s travels.

Then there’s a bunch of other sites I’ve played like as a kid like NeuroGalaxy and Zetapets and Teripets and Cenopets but those are long gone now.

So yeah, I invest a lot in my virtual pets, and if I had infinite time I’d post comics and shitposts about all these characters and I’d have finished their pet profiles by now.

Old Misticpets banners!

[consacro]

fgd okay I pulled the ones that ..I felt..looked a bit better LOL Under the cut bc one is nsfw and there’s a bunch of images

Putting this back bc @ketzerhund Brand AestheticTM

Apparently I drew Kuron and Yuuri a lot

(Yuuri’s Mega concept when mega gardevoir was leaked/revealed)

I have also done updated versions of them a while ago in this post

A...Dratini-line deoxys hybrid iirc? What did I make him for? Why was he a deoxys splice LOL

He also had a sprite that I modded

The original concept sketch for my luxtei (luxray/entei hybrid) Shiva

THESE GUYS WERE A BLAST FROM THE PAST TBH I think..my friend and i, building our pokemorph world needed conflict, so we came up with opposition for some of our main cast LOL These guys were super aggressive sky pirates, the zoroark being the leader (named Master rofl)

I remember he flirted with my friend’s arceus, Jina

@bladedwingsandclaws​ You might like these guys?

Theeeee ?? I don’t remember what his role was, I think he was Master’s right hand man/first mate. Joker

This guy was Kingdom, iirc he was...a call boy? concubine??? thing?? one of the scouts/fliers for Master’s crew

I made a pixel layout for the team, apparently. Don’t fuckin remember who they all were. Can you tell they were sky pirates LOL

These two (there’s a couple others on the acct too) are of one of my dragons when I was active on FlightRising, a light.. uhhhh mirror? I think they were called. The four-eyed skull draggos named Mjolnir

He was given to me by my friend and tied into our clan lores (Sidereus, her primary dragon, took Mjol from the clan matriarch who was going to basically live sacrifice him. Cal, my leader/a pearl took him in as one of their own)

Mjolnir was one of my first/primary coli dragons so we played tf out of the “brawn over brain” trope for him. Following mirror lore, his wings didn’t develop fully so he was never able to fly like the others, using a cable system similar to the 3DMD from SNK/AOT to clear ground fast.

Anyway tldr Sid had to babysit him a lot and teach him about a lot of shit including what was/n’t edible and sexuality bc Mjolnir was baby. We made jokes about how he’d see those brightly colored d*ldos and think they were candy/try and eat them (and Sid would have a fuckin heart attack)

The humanized versions of the dragums in question

And a funny injoke we had with our group of friends at the time, Mjolnir had a light sprite familiar and we made jokes about how she was a terrible little creature that destroyed bone like the Scraplets from one of the transformer shows

Also my progen/Cal before turning into a pearlcatcher

??? Who is this? Why did I make her? The file name is Faust

And Alei..rofl. I remember my friend and I made a set of chars based on the teasers when RWBY was still like. brand new, as in, the pilot hadn’t even aired yet

I also ...apparently made furfrou siblings and a xerneas at some point???

I don’t know what this was for?? But it’s a super cool concept so I might..do someth with it... blaziken/mismagius

@omegaman255​ kind of reminds me of your Valkyries now that I look at it

These were from when I was active on a petsite called Misticpets wow lol

This one was an ice spirit? I think? raised to be a living sacrifice or someth named Echoes

Neglect, a frankenstein’s monster deer thing

Hard, a fairy dog thing? I remember his hair/wings changed color every day lol

@zelotae​ @iinauras​ you guys might recognize the inspiration for these two.

I don’t remember what I named her but this was my twin from a pair my aforementioned friend made for our pokemorph world (Kuron/Yuuri down to Mjolnir) They’re Giratina/shiny blissey hybrids

I also remember the mom, my combat medic Stella

Also one of two of my arceus, this one’s (surprisingly) named Origin LOL

@xauramoon​ This is also the arceus that Fulmine trained against in her original version o3o

[subetagossip]

lmfaoooooo!!! @ "leave if you want non unique names" anon neopets would like to have a word with you...other sites w unique naming systems (iirc) are misticpets, goatlings, icepets, marapets, and more... subeta is unique for a hundred different other reasons sweetie. :))

[icedragonqueen22]

when a site you liked going to turns out to be filled with bitter, negative, and stress inducing people who keep asking for more, and keep dismissing the creator’s reasoning’s.

Maybe it’s just because I haven’t been on the site as long as some of these people, but. They’re complainging about a story being something it’s not. They were saying it was a slap in the face, and saying it was the site owner making a metaphor for what’s happening on the site right now when.

It was reposted? Like it is every year or so, I guess? But, no, they don’y care about that, they just want to get their way.

They got new staff, a new pet color, and the site TRYING to fix things but no.

Everything a “slap int he face”, “degrading” and “insulting to the users”

Just once, I’d like to find somewhere happy and posative. and have it stay that way

They’re telling the owner to just sell the site, but after seeing what happened to Neopets and Gaia, I can’t agree....

For once, I’m not complaining about tumblr too.
