I draw my characters lots :D Picking one at random, here have the twins, that's my favourite one of them.

I like getting arts :D I don't get a hell of a lot, but my Sallie treats me well <3 And Ku~ who does the most awesome chibis ever. When I have income again I'll buy more commissions of my charries, too, cos commissions are sexy X9

That's a very short answer. I talk enough about my arts when I post them >>

I'd been meaning to ask you who the twins were... I suppose that answers it pretty well. (Why are twins so popular anyway, I wonder? Triplets or sextuplets would be more interesting, really... Not that I'm not "guilty" of having a pair myself, but...)

Twins are more interesting than one :3

Plus, when you get into families who have litters and you end up with octpulets and decaplets, your stories and family trees get so much more complicated and its hard to spread the focus evenly XD Best to stick to twins.

What Sallie said XD I start confusing myself with too many more than two kids in the family, cos that's already four characters you've gotta make up there. Also, when making arts, twins are a nice symmetry to work with. Triplets less so, and having four characters in one picture is messy.

My twins are awesome :D They used to be identical but then stuff happened and now they're not. Well, still got the same bone structure, just different colouring. YAY.

Only three minimum, but ay, I see the point. And I admit Wise Children is awesome...
