So; this is a pic I wanted to get for a while, and its got a bit of a backstory.
Essentially I have allota people who have asked why does Cenny wear a red bandana.. why is he always seen with it etc. When designing Cenny I wanted to give him something that had a bit of a reference to something from my past. Now when I was a child, I was one of those super clingy kids.. I had something which I owned and I would never let it out of my sight, it was a red blanket, given to me when I was incredibly little by a close family friend who passed away when I was super young.. Now this blanket was mine, I would never let anything happen to it, I had to watch my mom when she would watch it to make sure she wouldnt "hurt" it or anything, she tells me stories on how when she would wash it and leave it out to dry, I would sit on the patio and just kinda wait for it to be dry so I could have it again. Now I look back at that and I thought it was kind of adorable that I thought that way.. The blanket that I had was red, completely red, and the idea is that that same blanket would be the bandana that is tied around Cenny's neck. It looked incredibly fitting for him, matched the design really well and was kinda like it was meant to be =).
I have the old blanket still, its up in my attic, still to this day I have that, I think its in its own way a little bit significant, that family friend that gave me it had a rather large impact on my life, he helped my family immensely, if it wasnt for him we would have been far less fortunate, maybe live in another location which could have potentially led to me growing up to be a bit of a different person. As a child I always had that blanket, I was to my knowledge at one point incredibly ill (I dont recall it, but I have been told by my parents) to the point where I almost passed away (so they say), given the wrong medication, and the only thing that would make me feel better would be that one blanket,
So here we have a little mini Cenny waiting for his bandana to dry off...
Thought I would explain that for those of you who were curious =)
Thanks for readin~

It's interesting - that the story behind Cenny's name being purely coincidental. Vitai's name is purely coincidental as well. When I was originally trying to think up a name for my "fursona", I was having a really hard time. I couldn't decide on anything. Somehow, I came upon a name generator on a website that I can no longer find that was a 'Lion King name generator'. I typed in my legal name and up popped Vitai. I liked the ring to it so I adopted the name. It wasn't until a couple years later that someone mentioned to me that 'Vita' in Latin meant 'life' which I found ironic as he is a wild born white tiger.. and everyone knows that white tigers, though beautiful, have a really hard time surviving in the wild due to their coloration.
thats pretty neat =3 my thing with Cenny was similar, his actual name is Centrix, I'm fairly sure I used something to generate the Cen idea, the trix came from me thinking I'm rather eccentric xD so I thought of how to make it work, made Centrix, people after a while just started calling me Cenny so I went with that instead x3
Bandanas are win :D Very interesting story tho Cenny, its always nice to have something you can look back on and smile and to add it to your self now , well I suppose you can look at it and say to yourself that it reminded you of your childhood :) Beautiful cutesy art I may say so also ^^
Wow. That story. It is adorable. And, being less fortunate. It is what happened to me, and yeah, in the end you become you, but, it is just a different (and harder most likely) journey then the "more fortunate" journey. If my family was more fortunate, I would still be in Cali, I would have been far less picked on and had friends. People I related to. I would not be working as hard to "fix" myself. I probably would not have flashbacks of certain things and a lot of other things that might be considered "better" but this is my life and there is no going back.
This makes me think of my teddy bear, the one I got on my first Christmas, two days after my birth on the 23rd. My mother told me that the day we were released from the hospital was the 24th. She said I reached out and snagged that Teddy from the shelf and so she bought it. She says I never let the bear out of my sight and could not sleep without it. I still sleep with that bear to date. Its just interesting to hear about others who have had that special thing from their youth.
D'awww, such an adorable pic and story
We all have our things we're attached to as kids - for me a few things such as a golly goshie (the politically incorrect cuddly toys) a small teddy bear and little anthro dog to snuggle up with.
That's way too cool a coincidence about your name translating to Precious in polish. It's awesome when that happens though.
