My birthday is a week from now, but annually I mark another birthday of sorts that comes before that.
Sixteen years ago around this time of night, on a quaint little MUCK loaded with ramifications of the sociopolitical kind, Niko--who'd become my personal furry and identity--was created. A time and day which I mark as hir own birthday. An identity for which I've now marked approximately half of my life, and which'd shaped me in many ways.
As I haven't been faring too rosily lately, sometimes it's nice to just get back to basics, take time, and do something for oneself for once. Something simple, to remember who I am and who that is. This is part of it. Nikotaka Redtail Tawner: A not-yet-humble yet energetic, precocious and oddly-colored vixen fought and saved to own a stellar courier and cargo-hauler of hir own. All so that shi could venture forth and become hir own independent woman out there in oft-unsafe star-lanes.
It was done over a night or so and I'm far from the best with reproducing ships (basically a draft of hir first little ship from said MUCK, which I've always wanted to draw out but never did until now).
Happy birthday, silly voop.

Answering curiosity is in no way obligatory of the person being answered, and certainly not in the asker's undisclosed expectations of a time frame.
That said, I am male, as many have also seen at the many conventions I've been at over the years.
I was just wondering. I didn't think you had to tell me. Its just I've asked other artist questions in the past and they ignore my question as if I said something out of line when in reality I was just asking a question...
Its your business. I was just wondering.
Understandable. And yes, depending on an individual's purposes and intents, they can see it as out of line, or not really mind, or anywhere inbetween.
It falls under how much information a person wants to give to stranger. In my case? Ennh, I'm not on Weasyl primarily; I don't notice comments often.

I've been wondering for quite some time now about something if its not too much to ask...
Are you male or female? I am just curious.
