"Finished" characters?

Hello,
I am wondering a bit about some of my characters, and I would be interested into your own thoughts on these questions. 

Do you ever consider your characters to be "finished"? Like, you completed their profiles, they got lots of artwork, and you feel like there is nothing more to do with them? Or do you always have something to do with them, being roleplay, collecting even more artwork, or just  re-writing them or fiding new fictions to write about them?
If you think your character is finished and you've written everything there is to write about them, what do you do of them? Do you just keep them, sitting here? Do you rework them, change something about  them to re-write them? Or do you throw them away, or sell/trade them? 

aaawhyme

my characters are never finished, they area always fluctuating between downtime and crunch time. an oc will stay dormant for years before i get any inspiration to reboot them or update them, or new information comes to my mind randomly out of nowhere, and that can kick start a complete revamp of an old character. I don't think characters are ever fully finished, because as I grow older, they grow older with me and change as my tastes and interests change as well.
