It is a great feeling (for those referencing my 100lvl Knuffel).
c:
Also, I really want to release more wild knuffels.
And I kept wanting to buy some but I've been busy starting school so I keep missing out!
They're gone before I decide what I want to name them, fff.
Bah.
How is everyone?

Oh, Fran, just name them "NeedsAName" and then you have all the time you want to think up a good name for them; it only costs 50 FP to rename a knuffel after all!
It would be really neat if you did more wild knuffels! What were you thinking of creating?

True. D:
Learn from my mistakes, I guess.
There were some really pretty ones out recently.
I want to make some off of a few OCs!
I have an idea for one but taking the time to do it in Paint Tool SAI is hard,
especially since the program is so new for me.

I can't wait to earn enough FP to buy a wild knuffel XD I'm trying to get enough for the valkyrie one that's only got a couple left X_x

You know, for all that Firn goes on and on about how difficult it is to have enough evolutions to get an OC accepted as a Wild Knuffel, it seems like it should actually be really simple...
You just make the actual "this is my OC" at stage 2 or 3, and evolve it past your OC into something else; after all, once it hits lvl 100 you can set which stage it shows, so you can have your lvl 100 OC exactly as you like, and there's enough evolution in the further stages to satisfy Firn and the KofK guidelines.
/random thought
SeaCrest, the Valkyrie one is a re-release! Which means the maker is around and active, which means it might get released again if it sells out. But for now, remember the Memory Game trick, because that is really a very reliable way to get FP....
The other trick is to go through old threads and do the polls.
Good luck!

Thanks! I'm doing the Memory Game now, if I can get another 1k FP I'll have enough for it! :D

The first one I did was an OC, but I did it all on GIMP using pixels.
Which I dislike.
So hopefully I can make a smoother one!
I have sketches laid out for each stage too, and I was nearly done with the first stage a while back,
but I saved it as a .PNG when I thought I saved it as a .SAI file, which would have kept the layers.
So I lost all my layers and it's hard to do everything without that, so I got fed up. D;

So basically, when you work in Photoshop or other Graphic programs,
you can create things on different layers of a document (not sure what other word to use)
For instance, on one layer you could have the Knuffel base.
On another you could have hair, another layer could have clothes, etc.
This makes it easier to shape and color each part of the Knuffel (especially between stages), without erasing a bunch of the work put there.
Also, you can alter coloring and opacity, etc, of separate layers instead of the whole picture.
It's just efficient and more organized, I think.

That's alright!
Whack a Wuffel takes forever though.
