Usernames and animals

Dear Sts Friends:

Okay, here we go! Calling all the Sts forum members. What animal in your collections gets first place on your favorite animals list? The reason why I ask is because I'm thinking of making a sort of animal and username representation thingy for eacch Sts Member. For example, the representation of my username would be the AAA Snowy Owl 23206 carrying the word Aschuck in its talons. The word itself would be in large wooden block letters. And I would imagine Roger's username representation would be a female fox curled up around the word Roger. You get the idea? We would all use animals that get first place on our favorite animal lists, and depending on the username, we would combine the favorite animal with the corresponding username. Seriously, I think it's pretty cool. What do you all think? Should we give this a shot? Well, let me know what you think, because either way, I'm probably going to do my representation anyway. Well, if anyone likes this creative idea, then let me know.

Aschuck

WOW ! That sounds like great fun , and I am very exited to see what you make out of it

But my favorite, - that is a hard one

Siamese cat, lemurs, donkeys, cheetahs, llamas and alapacas, foxes, hyenas, wild dogs, Icelandic horse, reindeer, and, and...

There are so many wonderful animals

My favorite animal is probably the european wild cat (Felis silvestris silvestris) and my username is caracal..

Great idea. Do you mean what species or what animal figure is our favourite (both would be interesting)? My favourite animal is probably the cheetah. My favourite figure is my avatar, the Britains polar bear. Not the best figure, but the one with the best childhood memories.

Dear Sts friends:

Well, first, a little clarification:

When I said favorite animal, I meant species. We can use either figures from our collections, or drawings or whatever, as long as the animal species and the username are both combined in the picture. Makes sense, doesn't it? Anyway, if anyone needs help with this, then let me know.

Aschuck

Ooh this a truly fab idea!

Now I think it would look good for any username to be written in krill and have the big Papo blue whale come and swallow it up. It may work best as an animation

This seems like a fun idea! I would definitely choose the CollectA Saola as my species/figure of choice :)

My favourite species, the cheetah:

(Kaiyodo Amazing Animals Cheetah)

Mmmmm .... ours would have to be a male Sable Antelope, galloping between the stones of the Castlerigg stone circle towards a limitless horizon.

Anna, I think I will surprise you. The animal in my avatar, a small picture we use to help locating our posts, is a sarcosuchus, a prehistoric animal that looks like a crocodile with a narrow snouth.
My favourite species is the giant anteater. My username is the Anglicisation of my name Rogério. However, I enjoyed reading your representation with the curled fox. I also think the snowy owl is a very good choice for you.

It sounds like a fun idea!
Hmm, for my favorite species I'd have a hard time. Certainly goldfish, as the avatar of my well loved ranchu 'Snotface' shows, are favorites and the species I concentrate most on in my figure collection. But my name comes from my sorely missed Australian shepherd Pip.

Sue and Lesley, don't forget the truly gorgeous hills behind it! They NEED to be incorporated

Adam, the reference is to the quote "Hope is a white horse, running towards an infinite horizon", with Hippotragus Niger substituting for the horse.

As I'm now three years into "extra time" since my last cancer operation, Hope is what I need!

Been thinking about this and I would definitely like to try to use this great idea and create one for myself, it would have to be a striped hyena for me:D
And to Lesley, we haven’t talked but I can see after only being on the forum for a few months now that you and Sue are absolute darlings and incredible people in this community, it breaks my heart that you have had such a diagnosis, and I wanted to tell you to continue to hold onto hope and that you are in my prayers.

Oh no! Lesley, I am so sorry to hear that. You two have been a Forum staple even from when I joined. I have enjoyed your collection displays on forum, and I hope to see many more.

Lesley, my dear friend !
I hope so much that you will get many more years, and that they will all be good years

Finished it:)

WOW !!! Isabella, did you make that ?
Absolutely wonderful

@susanne yes, I drew it on my iPad with the procreate app:) thank you so much Susanne!! I’m so glad you like it

It's absolutely fab!

@advicot thank you Adam!

Wow, great job! I love your artistic style.

@saarlooswolfhound thank you! I appreciate you saying so

Looks wonderful, do I see some Japanese style on it, Isabella?
Really very artistic representation.
