I colored in the sketch of the character I designed based off a Jubjub I had on Neopets once upon a time. Their name is Jackson. They are an aspired mechanic who spends a lot of their free time thinking of inventions. The mechanical arms in the backpack wasn’t something they made, rather something made for them so it was possible every since they lost their arms when they were 10.

I’m liking the colors! Although the hair I was iffy with because it was looking like Nepeta’s when I tried to draw it. Also, hope I did a good job making their gender hard to determine.

Made another character based off an old Neopet I had from an account with a password I don’t even remember. She was a JubJub and my first pet on that account. Actually, funny story about Jackson’s name. When naming that JubJub, I was originally going to make it male and name it Jackson. I forgot to change the gender and didn’t realize it until after I pressed the Create button. However, I do not mind because I loved my JubJub, Jackson.

I’ve always wanted to see a character who has no use of arms to have a backpack containing mechanical arms that help them do things with their hands. I also decided to make them genderqueer so if it’s a bit hard to tell, that’s the reason why. Liking the concept! Not sure what I’d use them for but maybe casual roleplaying…? Maybe…

This is what happens when you let me go back to Neopets. I bring back the characters I made of them, humanize them, therefore revamping more old OCs.

These are based my first two pets, my green Kacheek named Link and my yellow (possibly soon to be Faerie) Xweetok named Shimmer (because I was unoriginal in 2010). Or as their names actually are, Link6655 and Shimmer889977. … I wasn’t as smart in 2010.

I imagine them as faternal twins since I really like these two pets and I made Shimmer after Link. It’s a bit of representation of brains (Shimmer) and brawn (Link) too, but I also like to imagine they’re both strong and smart. Just one is more versed in one than the other but still fully capable of doing something involving the other.
