Gonna ramble and then do some shoutouts. idk whether to ping or not so I'm gonna link comm info or profile.

Vivie reach 100 in her gallery, and I couldn't be happier! Vivie really does mean a lot to me. If you knew me back when I first got into digital drawing and the furry fandom, you know just how much I struggled with keeping a fursona. My first fursona, Skye, went through a few tweaks. not even big ones most of the time either! It was frustrating that I couldn't just stick with one design. So I eventually retired her and now she sit on my alt account. Mango was next (Yes I named rl cat Mango after her) and she went through so many tweaks and marking changes. I kept searching videos on how to stick with a fursona, and looking at other fursonas wondering why I couldn't just stick with her instead of redesigning her every so often. I just couldn't handle it anymore, so she was retired and eventually given to my gf. It's also why I made Fidget, and how she had the same problem until recently. And then came along Vivie. A bat who was originally going to be a fan character Nimbat for Dust: An Elysian Tale. Not a lot about Nimbats were mentioned in the game, and I decided to make her a fursona while designing her. it honestly surprised me when I actually kept her! While she has had some tweaks here and there, She's mostly stayed the same! She originally had heterochromia with a blue and orange eye, but I changed that to mint pretty early on, her colors were lightened just slightly, I gave her a more bat like nose (Though the slit can be used still), and now her neck doesn't have any white marking. Though I still can't fully decide on the last one and idm what way that's done. The winter coat was given brown eyes instead of mint, while I'm not 100% one that, I do like her winter coat. Sometimes I've thought of just keeping the orange fluff with mint eyes instead of 2 different coats. Anyway, yeah. It's why Vivie is so special to me! And I hope this silly little bat makes other people happy too!

Also dw I just wanted to do this special occasion for Vivie. Though I am tempted to do it for the Raslio sisters with how much history they have. Or Storm but I dunno

Now on to the shout outs! I'm going from the bottom of the gallery to the top, starting with busts and ending with fulls! I'm gonna try at least one shout per row

This one was made by my friend Kota! | One of the very first Vivie arts! From Red-Mercury!

Umbral-Calamity | Coat | Princess-TF-ofAzurel | Emeowth

Sockune| Sirulyn

I realized how long this would take halfway through going through the busts so I'm sorry if I don't say anything about a piece. But if anyone wants to know my thoughts on a piece you're free to ask!

LarynxPaw | Patako(First art that's not mine!) | I actually don't have a lot of half bodies this is honestly surprising that I have more fulls than half wow

TopazTalon remember this? | Fgo | Jiffy | Muffin

Pendergast | Skykristal(First comm of Vivie!) | NerdPrinceAlec | Crazyclaw (This has been my laptop background off and on since I got it!)

And a bonus shoutout for Oyzix for Vivie's 100th image and being an amazing friend! :D

Wow this took like at least an hour to type and link everything XD
I'm sorry I don't have the patience to link all the images I didn't draw, but I love each and every one of them <3
Thank you to everyone who's drawn her over the years. It really does mean a lot! And here's to hoping Vivie will stick for years to come! Please do reach out to any artist in her gallery and maybe follow, comm, or even comment on their art. Artists deserve more than just likes. Please remember to tell them how much and what you like about a piece! Even if it's something small!

Anyway, if you've read this far, thank you for reading, and please remember to stretch and hydrate yourself!
