Yep, There's no doubt about that! Checkerboard does have a way with getting into Situations involving Giantess Ponies. Nothing too dangerous, but enough to tease and taunt him to keep him in his place.

I'm still hoping someday that you're up for another possible suggestion. I think it would be fun to see Fluttergoth try to punish Checkerboard in her own way, but I understand that you have a hefty archive to repost here and your Newer Art is the Highest Priority among anything else.

That being said, Even if we haven't been too close or don't know much about each other. We both respect each other to the point of becoming friends. So, If you need someone to talk to, Whether if there's something on your mind, or just to have some fun. My Door is always open.

But when it comes to this specific repost, I'm still impressed with the Stylized Redesign to this very day and that means a lot since very rarely do I actually approve on redesigns of Checkers. This is one of the few times where an Artist genuinely surprised me with a unique take on Checkerboard that doesn't miss the mark or overcomplicate the design. So, I'm happy that you were able to spin it into something that not only looks spectacular, but cool too. Not to mention, The Posing here. The Presentation alone is worth it, but with the added benefit of the redesign. It takes a simple suggestion and transforms it into a Well-made masterpiece(at least, to me.)

I may have worded it wrong in a sense that I made it sound like we're complete strangers since we definitely have talked enough over the years. As you said, we know each other enough in terms of respect which was what I meant to say.

I'm actually really glad that you like this design despite him not being in feral form. The MLP fandom, the NSFW part mainly, has mentally ruined my ability to draw ponies in feral form because of the "detailed stuff" they draw on their bodies. I csn still draw feral forms regardless, but it makes me glad you still like my anthro forms...

Your suggestions haven't been ignored, but what happened with my DA account and trying to expand my gallery elsewhere has temporarily prevented me from taking ideas right now.

That's the last thing I want to describe our mutual relationship as---Strange or Estranged. I'm just glad that I was able to clear things up when it comes to this side-note. Still, If you need someone to talk to, Come find me. I'll always look forward to strengthening our mutual bond or interacting with those who are familiar with me. A Fan of mine is a Friend of yours, I'll always say and vice versa.

Yeah...I get what you mean. There are some parts of the NSFW side of the MLP Fandom that feel like it's too much for me. I don't want to delve into the specifics behind it because we both get it, and personally speaking, I don't like to kinkshame what amuses them. I'd rather prefer to go with the Giantess themes that works well for me, both in a fun way and in a "eye-catching" one~

I'm well aware of the dA Setback, Which is why I wanted to take a step back for the time being until you know you are ready to take on Wholly Original Artwork again. Even if the answer might be never, I wholeheartedly understand why. I'm just glad that you still have a place to post Artwork. It's better than dealing with DeviantArt and their recent methods in promoting AI or safe future-proofing to spare advertisers. Not like they were doing a good job anyway, Since the site went through a recent shutdown that spanned six consecutive days. I should know, It started on my Birthday (which was 8 Days ago)...but then again, We've already discussed about DeviantArt's BS almost 2 months ago. Sorry for not getting back with you sooner back then.

I'll keep it brief by saying that I was suffering from a ruptured appendix, needed Hospital Care, and I'm still waiting for a word on Surgery.

So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for when suggestions are back to being a possibility. I'm just going to let you set everything back up before that happens, as well as hope that there are no sudden changes to the rules that will alienate people like us to stay on.
