These will be my entries. I work solely off mobile, so I am unable to do edits, or create tack of any kind.

Thinks like spots (appaloosa/dapples) are hard for me to do, but i can do them, it just takes a long time. Most appy adopts from me will be varnish roans, snowcaps, few spot, or frost/snowflake appys. Other than that, i don't really have any restrictions to my arting abilities.

I do occasionally have access to a laptop and i can use that to create adopts too.

im,,, so sorry for this

Edits
Standard: Shine edit
Common: Hair edit, custom tail, back mane
Non rarity: Colored sclera

a standard entry
was originally based off of orange creamsicles

Feedback and critique are welcome and appreciated! I know it's probably a long way to go before i can be an official kalon artist or even a guest artist, as I need practice. I would love critique and advice as that will help my design skills grow. I might try my hand at edits with the next one.

Everything is 100% done, Includes adult lines, teen lines, complete ref sheet for things such as pawpad colors, eyes, nose, ect and lock alpha for all the lines. Adult lines has two ear layers + lock alpha layers for whatever mood you're in as well.

The main lines will need editing depending on the ear lines chosen. For best results, merge the Main color layer with the chosen ear color layer and color it as one for the best design results. This is for the adult lines only. c:

If Won:
- Please do not remove, move, hide or recolor the signature.

i think i'm done. its stitch themed kalon. I'm not online very often so.. its not like i could make alot of kalons if i get to be a kalon artist

edit: forgot the tail shine. ill fix it later
edit #2: i think i made an uncommon but i shortened the legs so i think that means he is a rare..? (I still can't fix his tail shine right now because i can't paint on my tablet and when i have the time i'll fix it on my computer)

i love them dearly!! working on a good personality.

Are you over 16 years old? (please DO NOT include your age, just a ‘yes’ or ‘no’): Yes.
Link to other entries or design examples that aren’t Mako:

I've mostly been working off-oekaki as of recent, but I will provide examples from both on and off-Oekaki.
Below are three adopts I'd created belonging to closed species. They are all Off-Oekaki.

Siberian Flooftail Adoptable – Recent simple design – closed species.
SibFloof Adoptable (custom linework) – Recent Simple design and fully custom linework – closed species.
Wulgiel Adoptable - Simple design / edits - closed species
Wulgiel Adoptable – More complexish design – closed species

Additional closed species examples, but on Oekaki:
My Kalon MYO design - complex and uncommon edits to the given base - closed species
Summer Event Wulgiel - blend design - closed species
Another summer event Wulgiel - semi-complex design - closed species

Examples of original linework:
F2U Ferret Base - One of 5 bases I recently made available for free to the public on DA which was originally a part of a group I ran, which is getting a revamp soon ^^
The other bases (all by me): Mouse - Rat - Playful Dog - Basic Cat

What are your strengths? Weaknesses?:
In character design:
Strengths: Unique edits, darker designs / palettes, making and using original lineworks
Weaknesses: Certain species (mechanical, human, primate in particular), neon or overly bright palettes
In general:
Strengths: I practice art and design daily, always try my absolute best when working for others and I would like to think that I listen well and keep most things organized regarding various things.
Weaknesses: I lack confidence at times in my work, I have personal issues IRL which interfere at times with my art life (though things are steadily improving tbh). I worry too much what other people think at times.

Anything else you want me to know about you?:
I have a strong passion for art and design, love creating and sharing works with communities. I honestly try my best when in a position of responsibility and take any assignments or roles given to me seriously. I am online very often and have a flexible schedule.
I want to specify why I would like to join Makos!
I saw that Makos were returning to CS and read through the announcement. I noticed you'd mentioned that you'd had issues in the community for a variety of reasons which you were trying to resolve in order to help old members reconnect and to make the species inviting to more people. I really respect that you want to make a more inviting community for everyone, I also respect that you are looking to move the species back to a "not for profit" state. As an artist currently in ownership of two species (one on CS and DA, one on DA, both not-for-profit and hopefully staying that way), but also looking for a species to become simply an artist for currently, I personally would love the opportunity to join a fully developed species and assist by making characters for others.
It seems that the Makos community is moving in a positive direction, growing and welcoming new people at this time. I feel that if I were to join as an artist for your species, it would be a good experience for both me and the people who come to adopt my creations. Simply, I love making characters, and would like to make it clear that I don't mind making free adopts in the slightest (and am used to it, considering the previously mentioned ownership of 2 species of my own <3)

Lastly, I would like to mention that my inbox is always open and I will always respond. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me and I will respond in a timely matter.
