Description

Making this one quick because out of time. 

Meet Mason, former resident of Middleton A.R.F.  That's an unpleasant coincidence, the acronym spelling "arf" when they actually do experiments on more than just dogs. We're not exactly sure what Mason's DNA is made up of. Officially he's a hybrid of poodle, chihuahua and fennec.  Regardless the story is he was intentionally released to introduce a new form of rabies into the suburbs. What wasn't known was that the virus wasn't actually injected into him, but the vaccine. Too much paperwork, too long shifts, it happens.


Anyway, Mason was adopted by Milo's guardian and the trouble began shortly thereafter. See that rat-like tail? That's not Mason's original tail at all. Milo fought Mason tooth & nail from day one causing Mason to scratch all the furniture he could and managed to always blame it on Milo to the point where Milo was declawed. Milo never forgave Mason for this and while Mason was chasing him one day, Milo ... did some things which resulted in Mason's tail having to be surgically replaced. Yes, I'm too squeamish to write what happened right now. Maybe later.


Anyways, so now that Mason has a prosthetic tail and Milo has no claws, they called an official truce so as not to get kicked out of their home. But every so often, Mason will taunt Milo, complimenting or stroking Milo's fluffy tail, threatening to rip it off, without actually saying it. 


...


So that's Mason, the canine thing. XD  Mason was designed by my buddy, and is my first AND ONLY adopted character. XD

Mason is awesome! I already see, that he is Ninchiru's project (eg. Fur pattern ) Poor Tres By the way, he doesn't deserve for this fate. He has some problems with Nina's characters - Mason (who's belongs to you now), Sternchen... Poor cat... Only Sparkz is his hope for better days

Tres and Mason look amazing here! Especially their faces' expressions are so fantastic. The room background is just awesome and epic! I wanna do such beautiful backgrounds like you!

New character indeed! ugh this is going to be a lot of work. new characters are always a huge investment mentally and emotionally, but i hope it'll work out. XD

and now i have a vision of Tres getting hit int he back of the head with a 1-Up mushroom from Mason. thanks for that mental image. xD

I know the feeling... I may have another character here soon too -.- I don't need these people, where do they come from...

I have added Mason screaming "LIVE darn you!" to the image. You're welcome XD

Very nice picture and story X3
Hm, you did one of his inner ears blue? Nice idea X3

but his design is not copyrighted by me any longer XD
I created it, but the character and with it their design is now all yours XD
You can write that I created the design, but not that's copyrighted by me. XD Because after adopting him he is now completely and absolute yours ONLY XD

i've drawn Sparkz exactly 100 times and i still give GuiMontag   credit for his current design every time...


the blue inner ear was your idea though! oAo i dunno... i might have to go with one color for the inner ear... that'll probably come with more time. i really love this character so I will draw him often...

xD he's mine for sure, but... you still get credit for what you've done!

Ninchiru In reply to 8OV [2014-08-28 13:15:23 +0000 UTC]

I didn't made a blue inner ear XD The blue on the ear is the outside where the ear falls forward and is hanging. XD Like it is with this dog fav.me/d7wqo2e

Crediting me is okay, but not by copyright, but just saying that I created him XD
Example: Design made by Ninchiru (That's enough XD)

Dude I've already said it but you really made Mason your own, he fits right into your world and looks fantastic in your style! I love that you went with that color for the kitchen floor (the background looks great btw)! For some reason I think Tres' expression is my favorite here XD

First result from googling Middleton ARF is this ...so Mason's from a brewery, then? XDDD

Backstory is creepy and disturbing, and Mason himself is creepy yet cute. I like the indoor background on this one very much!
