I had an idea for the Baker's Dozen family where they find out that there is a 14th Baker child that even the parents don't know about. And this said child came out via scientific genetic cloning of the parents (Lemon and Lime's parents would never cheat plus that too cliche of a marriage trope if you ask me). I always thought that the dad would have been in the military and the government would just genetically clone some of the soldiers and the parents' DNA is like top-tier shit and the government just made a baby out of their genetics and raised it to be the perfect soldier. The child would be older than Apple (their first child and she would have a whole older sibling complex aka "I'm number 1") and all the other siblings wouldn't know what to do with them but still treat them like family. And then said child would learn to be a part of the family or some gushy bullshit idk. Might do some concept sketches and see how I feel if I want to do that.

I love being messy boots in my own private world because as much as I want the Baker's Dozen to be this regular normal family, I need to have drama to hit them like a freight train and wreck all of their dynamics just so they can grow a little (they need a little drama trauma, I fear I made them too cookie-cutter perfect they legit don't have problems)

Starting 2026 by breaking my "I'm not adding a new character to the main family" rule bc I told my mom (whom I bounce my ideas off of) my new character concept and the more I talked about it, the more I loved the idea so I'm doing it but truthfully he won't be a main character fr he is more like a character you would see once every other season on a TV show...plus I started a sketch page for him and all I did was draw his face and I was sold so I gotta commit to it now. BUT I SWEAR AFTER THIS LEMON AND LIME WILL HAVE NO MORE SIBLINGS I REALLY SWEAR IT THIS TIME!!! Also first oc of 2026 WOOOHOOO!!!

On top of the messiness that is this 14th Baker, I've decided he gonna have some severe ptsd and to make his life more stressful I gave him a kid that is another genetic clone with his DNA that he didn't know about and rescued cuz why tf not.

I worked on the character for over a month now and ik I said he was going to a main character but he is now. He is more of a recurring character when he debuts but then becomes a series regular...I've grown too attached to my trauma baby boy. I really can't keep doing this.

Another concept for the 14th Baker that is more simple and corkey is that Lime invented and time travel device and he & Lemon go back in time and accidentally set their parents up too early that resulted in a older brother they do not know. And since Grape was supposed to be the last child, they could still be the Baker's Dozen cuz their baby brother Blackberry is 12 years younger than the lastest Baker child and their parents didn't expect to have another kid at their age...I'm just pulling this outta my ass for this one character I didn't need but can't seem to get rid of.

Lowkey wanna do free character design commissions where people suggest character designs/concepts that they would like to see me draw in my Baker's Dozen family/universe. The concepts could range from aesthetic types, career-centric designs, and time periods. They could be any furry mammals. For example l, if someone wanted a character that was a squirrel from the 1970 and who's whole occupation and personality is fitness, I would draw that. I need to get better at designing and doing research into different styles but I truly don't know where to start. Idk if this make sense fr but iykyk.

To elaborate more on this cuz I need to make it make sense cuz it lowkey doesn't to me AND I WROTE IT🙃my ocs come from 2 main families trees, the Day Family and the Baker Family. Now the Baker family members are named after fruit-themed desserts (ie Peach Cobbler and Apple Pie). The Day family members are named after gods, goddesses, constellations, and have space-themed names. Now the idea of the free character commissions is that people would hypothetically tell me the name of the character, their aesthetic, occupation, and what time period they should come from. You can also be specific about the characters body type, gender and age(I need to practice drawing those). This exercise is more or less a helpful tool for me to experiment with character design so my characters don't look the same. Also note that a majority of the family members from families are squirrels so if there is another animal you'd like to see me draw, that would also have to be specified. Like I said I want to practice more character designs and possibly extend this little universe that exists mostly in my head (and my laptop). I hope this explanation helps and if you do have ideas you can leave them in the ask box or whatever it's called😁

Let me pray and hope that I can at least have a concept of Lemon and Lime's extended family done to work on by the end of the year...if not imma make family members that just don't make sense and imma call it a day (I'm lying I have to make it make sense or else I'll go insane). I'm just stuck on their father's side bc their tree is a bit bigger than their mother's side.

I've been debating for weeks about whether I'm going to do a mix gender (both boys and girls) for Lemon and Lime's aunts and uncles or a majority gender (all boys and 1 girl) in terms of their father's side. Their mother only has 2 siblings (an uncle and aunt) and I have their design more or less locked in. I really need to lock tf in fr at this point.

There are times I wish my ocs were a collaborative effort bc I need someone to bounce ideas off of and I like other people's ideas but I don't like to share...its the only child syndrome in me I guess so I'll just go crazy for now until I burn out again.

Literally had an idea for an oc that I DO NOT NEED but want to draw so badly...this is why I need people to tell me to stop😔 she's gonna be a cute oc tho so I guess there's that

The main reason I'm doing this Sprite family "reboot" is because there are too many characters and moving parts to make a story out of that won't drive me crazy🥴 Like Idk how most of the siblings (besides the twins) interact with one another. I also miss how simple they used to be when I first created them and then my brain when into character design overload. Also ik only 2 people actual engage in the Sprite family and not everyone can keep track of who is who. So hopefully I'll have something to show soon of the updated family🥺😬

Well, this aged beautifully cuz I'm rebooting the Sprite family...AGAIN🙃 the family will be the same with Lemon and Lime and their 11 siblings, as well as their parents. I am changing their last name and are now under a new title (I ain't finna get sued by Sprite for copyright). I'm currently reworking designs and I only added 2 new members so I guess that's progress. Stay tuned if you stayed to read this😁
