Hello everyone, It's been forever since I've been on DA sadly, and while I will still be using this account on occasion, I've created a new account for Ridi Kitty design.
If your interested in following my clothing designs and cosplay photos please check out my new DA account ~Ridikittydesign (https://www.deviantart.com/ridikittydesign)
Thank you for your support through the years, and hope you will continue to support my new account!
