I've thought about going back and updating these drawings. I am proud of them but it's been many years and I think it could be neat to see how much better I can make them.

Kind of? Not really any canon characters, since the series doesn't have that many that could work or that I am interested in, which is fine lol. I don't need to ship everyone together. But I did make up a character in concept to explain who the mother of Varian's kid was in my old next gen stuff. I was actually inspired to do this because of my Ben 10 next gen, as I gave kids to a lot of canon characters that I didn't pair up, and figured I could fill the spaces with original characters. It's less of me making someone for them to kiss and get the shipping feels, and more me taking it from the perspective of "If I was a writer on the series, and given the task of designing a love interest for this character, how would I go about it to make it work?". And that's what this character ended up being. I know I wanted to have her show up in the Starshard continuity at some point, but it was gonna be post the sequel fanfiction I never ended up writing. But some day I will get around to it. I know some aren't that interested in OCXCanon stuff, so I won't blab about who this character is unless people are actually interested.
