Heh, I don't have much Photoshop experience, nor do I think I have very good skills with color coordinating, gradients, or things like that. But I do have two pretties that I created that I plan on turning into customs, at some point:

ImageImage
I created these two randomly, and fell in love. I'm not one hundred percent sure on their names, personalities or anything of the like, although I know they'll be a duo business-wise if not romantically.

Also I love the marking combos, Kitsumi. ;3; So cute on those babies.

Anyway I wouldn't mind advice on some of these babies. |": And to show them off? I don't know.
First off is some randoms I made that I really liked (Also yes, I mostly play with the male 'Cain base):

ImageImageImageImage

And then now some customs I've been working on designing. Most or well they'r eall still in design phase. |": Bleh.

So this design is based on this girl of mine on FR:

And I miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight design an Ajani Goldmane pet.  Idk yet.  As of yet I have no Planeswalkers in my vast collection of M:tG cards, but.  All my yes to Ajani. >w<

Remember how I said I might make an Ajani Goldmane pet?  I did.

Image

The teal Streak is supposed to be his cape, the Jacket Fox paws are his bracers, the two lines of Banded the bands on his bracer/leather around his paws, and the wingblades are the same colors (or close to) the metal from his armor. >w<

Fish, I love that last boy of yours~ He's so interesting. owo

Also I made a cain based off the Glow Cloud from Welcome to Night Vale so that's fun.
This thing would be hell to breed for 8'|

Actually, it wouldn't be too hard. There are a lot of purple Lucain, especially thanks to people like me that love purple. For example;

Image
Pairing this boy with a Lucain that has a bit more reddish tones/varying shades of purple could easily make the boy you designed. Just gotta find the right pets, but not too impossible. =)

Ohhh that is possible, yeah! 8O And you said somewhere that minimarks can appear randomly and don't have to be on the parents?

Yep. Minimarks aren't dependent on parents, since they mostly just give us a way to nicely tie the design together.

I really started to fancy the song Centuries by Fall Out Boy, and ended up getting inspired to try my hand at making designs.

Image Image

This pair are derived from the song. The male basically represents the person that the song is entirely about. His theme is essentially a mixture of a tombstone and bones, as I chose to interpret the song in such a manner. The Ancient marking acting as the script on the tombstone. However, his wingblades come from the lyrics, "some legends are told, some turn to dust or to gold." Initially, I tried making the Ancient with a gold gradient, but wasn't satisfied with it.

As for the female, she comes specifically from the lyrics, "And you're a cherry blossom. You're about to bloom. You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon." So she's based off of cherry blossoms or, more specifically, cherry blossom calligraphy paintings, like this, as I felt it more appropriate to the song's theme than just cherry blossoms. You know, paintings can last for centuries, too. I also gave her wingblades, originally, but I think I prefer her without them.

These are more designs I don't know if I will use, and may give away if someone fancies them, but they were fun to make, either way.

Out of them, I think the female is my favorite.

So, back in 2011, I wrote a novel for NaNoWriMo.  It was a really memorable NaNo because I broke 50k before the 30th--even before the 15th!--and the story didn't stop until I had well over 100k words.  That novel was called Into the Dragon's Keep.  It was largely based on D&D dragons and Dragonborns and whatnot.

Well, when Azura (who has read this novel) started talking about doing D&D here on Evelon, my beloved muse goes, "Hey, why not bring Aesthyrarytiss and Bejikixen here to Evelon and make them AU?"  So I did, and I ordered them yesterday.

Then this morning, my muse goes, "Well, now, wait a minute.  You need to bring Aesthyrarytiss's sister, Athearverthicha, to Evelon as well."  So... I caved and I did.  Here are the three designs, two of which will be real soon~

ImageImageImage


A little more backstory: these three are based on dragons from D&D.  Aesthyrarytiss is based on a gold dragon (I took the most liberties with her), Bejikixen is based on a red dragon, and Athearverthicha is based on a radiant dragon.

After staring at my previous design, for the Lucain based off of the song "Centuries," I decided to try something that looked a bit less like existing Lucain for the male. This is what I came up with.

Image

I fancy this one more than the previous design, although it deviates from the gravestone idea.


Spring: I believe those 'gon designs well match what they are based of, although I'm not at all familiar with D&D, so that's awesome! <3 My favorite of them would have to be Athearverthicha, as I just love her glowing eyes.

I really love the design on the radiant dragon. I've played with the idea for years of doing a D&D set of paragon (I LOVE my copy of the Draconomicon) but... too much money and only the black and blue dragons have good counterparts on here and they're my least favorites. :/ I wish we did have better wings and heads to make my own gold dragon since that's what Atreyu was in my D&D game he was created in. I just tweaked him to become an opal dragon instead when I brought him here.

...I need to stop making things. XD; Alas, I have 868814568563852 Palette Potion babies I need to make for an old-as-balls project of mine, and I get struck by other things in the midst of that.  These two come from the ancient depths of a place known to a few here--most notably to Toxic, who kind of gave me the idea in the first place to resurrect these two, because while I barely roleplayed them, I loved them.

ImageImage


The first one is Nachiketa, who was a Goddess of Fire.  The second one is her daughter, A'unia, the Goddess of Darkfire.  If I ever get Keta, then I will attempt to breed for A'unia--probably minus her shiny gradient on her Striped. :'D But I wanted to make it look like gold, so I did XD;
I have been given too much power.  That damn gradient on A'unia has color stops on all the even numbers.  ALL OF THEM.

Springs, I'm in love with that first Soveris oAo <333

Image
Apparently it's just my thing to combine coontail with hyaena but I made a 'cain version of that Bill Cipher paragon I made awhile back but it kinda. Escalated. A lot. Homf. I can't resist making staticy space innards for this freaky mind demon D'8

Image
Aaand he's not actually MINE but I designed Kojaku from DMMD for Azura and I like how his addons turned out~ ;w;

Those sparkly space innards just MAKE that Bill, Zap. :D I think he'd be even cooler with an eyepatch, sort of like some Bill anthros have? D:

I'm so cool (too bad I'm a loser).
I'm so smart (too bad I can't get anything figured out)!
I'm so brave (too bad I'm a baby).
I'm so fly
That's probably why it feels just like I'm falling for the first time!

I'm so green (it's really amazing).
I'm so clean (too bad I can't get all the dirt off of me)!
I'm so sane (It's driving me crazy)!
It's so strange
I can't believe I'm falling for the first time!

Ooooh! You're right Freezie, that'd look really cool :O And maybe give him a slightly bigger funky-looking eye like Bill has, like that sandshark but small enough to fit inside the Kohl. xD Hmm hmm. So like, patch on the left eye, and the larger eye on the right. xD
