So, if you've known me a while, you've seen that I have made Petz versions of some of my characters. If I have human characters, I tend to also make them an animal form (usually dog or cat) so that I can make them come alive, so to speak, in Petz!
I've been roleplaying with one of my older characters recently, and falling in love with her character so much. I wanted to have her around, feeling more alive, so I thought of two things I could do.
One, make her on the Sims (and she actually LOOKS like the character for once!!) and two, make her on Petz! xD So I did both! But I also needed an animal design for her...usually I'd play around with some animal maker flash games online, but since Flash is no more...I didn't know what to do. I couldn't think of markings on my own.
But then...of course. The Sims!! I started randomizing big dogs until I got one with a shape and markings I liked, and I chose the colors! Once I now knew what her animal self would look like...I went about trying to hex her.
Here's the results!

So here she is, in all of the ways I've known her! Believe it or not, this character originated back in 2005, and was originally a Hissi Neopet called Kashaula. Over time, the original was lost and deleted (and I eventually recreated her, though as something else) but I'll always remember how she started. Obviously with time, I created a human version of her, so I could use her in roleplays. She started as a villain character too. In certain roleplays, I do still use her as a villain, but I've played some nicer sides to her. (Though, even 'nice' for her isn't very...nice. xDD) She's got a very strong, forceful personality. She does things her way, and you deal with it, or she will get seriously annoyed with you. She's aggressive, she holds a grudge, she likes to tease...
She's not especially nice. But at the same time, she has a bit of a rough past (not fully fleshed out yet) and she's a fighter. She knows what she wants and she won't take crap from anybody. And she's afraid of almost nothing. xD So I don't know. She's just kind of an awesome character, if a bit snarky, to me, and the more I get to know her the more I love her.
So I really wanted her to have a big, tough dog as a base. I kept imagining a shepherd shape, and gold to match her blonde hair, but besides that I had nothing. Sims helped me figure out what else to add, and I think she looks pretty awesome!
As a human, her Neopet name had to go, so she became Kassandra. But she hates the name, she thinks it's girly and she hates anything girly...so she typically goes by Kass. Use her full name and she'll really start to hate you fast. x'DD
The dog herself is named Kashaula, since it's the only variation of her name I didn't already have, but don't be surprised if I call her Kass all the same. xD She also has a Bulldog personality!
Also threw together this guy, Arvin, to see what a more German Shepherdy look (in my colors of course) might look like! It's simple, but I think he's quite handsome!! <3

Originally I tried to shift from using the Mutt file, since I use it EVERY SINGLE TIME, because it has a perfect shape to work with...and it gives me less issues.
I tried to start with a Dachshund, but had to scrap it later because the movement was NOT working for some reason. But...I adopted this guy early on, and changed up his colors, and decided to keep him:
He's got a slightly wonky shape to him, with his front half being a little taller and his body being a tad too short. But I kind of love it?? xD He looks like a little ragdoll or something! He has such a floppy, cuddly look to him that I just love...so I wanted one with this shape, and he won me over with his adorable sleepy sickness! (Hence the uncreative, yet somehow cute name!)
He's very simple, but I love how he turned out, and he's got so much personality already, I love him! xD Never expected he'd be part of the deal when I hexed Kass!
But yeah, that's all! Just wanted to share tonight's creations! xD

EDIT: Oh yeah, here's a couple of bloopers when I was trying to make the Dachshund legs longer:
I accidentally erased part of the code...I THOUGHT I was extending BOTH sets of legs, but I removed the second half. So...I accidentally stretched one half up too high.
I fixed it though. ....And it still didn't look right. LOL The numbers I chose were way too high. But it gave me a little laugh all the same. xDD
