design ideas and concepts !

i will be adding to this as i think of things<3

to get an idea of what kind of characters i like, i'll start yall off with some links !!
the following are my absolute dream characters (no order): one 2 gone three four five
some more examples of designs i really love are here
characters i currently own myself are located here
*** DO NOT COPY ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS, THEY ARE ONLY FOR EXAMPLE ***

yall just sayin i don't like female characters much,,,

design concepts i love
-- tigers
-- hyenas
-- tiger/dragon hybrid
-- anthro skunk
-- werewolves !!
-- anthro birds !!
-- hybrids
-- mammal/reptile hybrid
-- unique/made-up creatures
-- literally throw anything at me except female characters lmao

design aspects i love
-- antlers
-- soft colors
-- non cis-gender characters
-- wings
-- crowns
-- pink/orange/white color palette
-- piebald/merle/marble fur pattern
-- themed characters (crime, magic, royalty, deity, etc)
-- weird blood (gold, mercury, etc)
-- big paws/pawpads<3


design aspects i do not like
-- **NO HUMANS **
-- base color too dark to see the lineart
-- black and red together (highlights/marking are okay but not as the base)
-- neon colors as base
-- most yellows
-- super intense gradients (i can't blend well using my art program)
-- crazy complex designs
--female characters
-- tentacles of any sort
-- very complicated hair (it should be easy to draw from different angles !)

miscellaneous tips
-- full reference sheets or anthro + feral version is huge points !!
-- you can enter as many times as you want
-- feel free to give them a concept !! i might end up changing it but sometimes it's awesome to see characters built around a concept

you don't have to choose things from these lists !! these are just suggestions; i love creativity so please have fun with your own ideas<33

please feel free to send me any questions with ideas you have !! if you want an opinion on a color palette or something like that, don't hesitate to send a pm over<33
