After some time away from Pint's character, I came back to her concept with a fresh mind and overhauled her pretty heavily! I'll likely still tweak her as I go along, but this should be the last big revamp for the foreseeable future.~

Her Folder in my gallery has been renamed to reflect her new name(s), and all old art of her previous iteration have been marked as 'outdated'. From here forward, she is no longer 'Pint' [as that was a play on her original concept's starting point, demivo 's Hush [Pint]erova], but is now called Cinder (and/or) Jewel.~

Her character hasn't really changed! This metamorphosis of her design actually takes place IN-universe and I'd like to do a mini comic about it some time.

Why make this change? Cinder originally looking so similar to Demi's Hush made me uncomfortable despite Demi giving me the a-okay on her original revamp. I took some time away from her due to the underlying anxiety of people misunderstanding the situation, but I kept a fond attachment to her character. So when I returned to her about a yearish later, a few days ago, I was able to tackle her with new eyes and ideas. Originally I was just going to go with what Jewel looks like on this ref [the purple design] but was possessed at some point during development to try her with a chocolate-brown palette. I immediately fell in love with its volcanic, fiery, autumn-leaves vibe, and slowly leaned towards it being her new canonical look that she woke up one day with. It also works into the plot I'm slowly cooking underneath the Studio, so that's a fun bonus.~

Anyways I'm rambling and most people don't care too much about plot/lore stuff so- here's her old original description for legacy's sake:
<sub>And here she is! Pint, the hybrid shapeshifting fox.

She's the newest member of the Starstruck Studios main cast. She arrived there by accident via a portal mishap, and transformed a bit in the process. While Star tried to find a way home for her, she stayed at SSS, and began to form bonds with the cast, which changed her over time both in spirit, and physical shape. She gained new physical forms through her shenanigans at the studio, either by fusing with different members or by playing with the fiction fabricator in ways she shouldn't have.
Eventually when it was time to go home, part of her didn't want to leave. She knew she originally came from another world and needed to go back, but her split heart caused the portal to malfunction and spit out two versions of her. One was her original self, Hush, unchanged as if she'd never come to Starstruck. The other was Pint, in her fully altered form, with a completely different personality. Though confused and a bit distressed by losing part of herself, she decided to stay at the studio as a permanent member, and now lives in her own apartment like Penny, Monty, and many of the others.

Transformation is her game! Pint can't go too long without changing shape, either willfully or not. Hungry? Touch-starved? Dunked in water? So many things change her form, but she doesn't mind too much. She's slowly adjusting to her new body and life at Starstruck, just trying to rediscover herself and figure out 'Who am I?' now that part of her has literally left her mind. There's a lot to figure out, but she's got the crew at her side to help her out.
This character will likely go through a LOT of changes as I feel her out, as this is a bit of an odd situation for an OC to come out of. So expect her to fluctuate a bit.~

[This character is a redesign of a 'collab character' that demivo and I created together off of their fursona. Pint eventually grew into her own OC with tons of differences from Hush, so Demi gave me full rights to her. I redesigned her a bit, and now she's an official part of the cast. In short: Hush and Pint share some vague similarities, but they are NOT the same character. Pint belongs to me, Hush belongs to Demi. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. We're both happy with this arrangement, but know others may be confused.]</sub>[/s]
