[TrulyBrilliant]

All the artists did amazing but I'd have to say my top favorite staff dogs this year would have to be these darlings:




I especially adore the way Sketchi's pup sits, my rl dog sits like that too and it's the silliest, most cutest thing ever

[Tea.Time]

Note: The Tail stinger is upside down yes, but i did it that was for a reason. [it's more logical for a dog to have it that way becuase it will be more likely to swing it's tail to the side for a attack] but anyway XD

YES, but Scorpio.. thought you are missing a detail friends XD it's stripes.

Truly, are Fearless as a Lion, Strong as a Tiger, and Deadly Scorpion, witht he cunning of a dog thrown in. you know.

glad to see you all like him though~

So basically a chinamara?

I still have to wait a few hours before my last Staff pup grows. I'm not displeased that's for sure that scruffy mane, I just want to mess it and say "It's so fluuufffffy!" But I'd likely get a sting if I did

I went through them and put the names their artist gave them for the ones that have one, For Sketchi's dog I named it Cloudfur after their description and today's outcome by Soulwings I named Scorpio.

My favorites
Pet's name: Caer Pet's name: Cloudfur
Pet's name: Azazel **** Pet's name: Scorpio
Pet's name: Khorne Pet's name: Babbu

First 2 pets equal favorites as I can't decide, the rest in no particular order.
All the Staff litter have something I quite like about them though. I love any with wings.

His tail reminds me of Sandwings from wing of fire book series witch i adore so i love him XD not sure the feelings mutual though

Cus like a liepard i cant help but think he can hang things of his tail XD.

I think I'd prefer this one without the stuff in the background but, come to think of it, I might be able to utilize that for a dressup.
Very well done though, as usual. Good to see your colored lines making another appearance!

Awesome Staff Litter, as usual I've enjoyed myself immensely. Managed to start quite a few Staff hoards!

Lovely job on Scorpio Soulwings <3

I'd call it a modified manticore, with the dog in place of man (manticores were originally a warped explanation for tigers, so that's where that part comes in). It could technically be called a chimera, but manticores are mythical monsters in their own right.

Thank you so much SoulWings, he is so stunning I keep imagining him using his stinger to scratch under his chin



All the staff pets this year are amazing, every year I think how can they get any better and each year they do. Thank you all so much

[wolfsowl]

I love Scorpio so much! He turned out even better than I imagined.

All of the staff pets this year were so amazingly well done, especially with such a limited color palette.
Some of my favorites are the beautiful Selkine, adorable Cloudfur, Babbu and Floogle, the sea dragon, that GORGEOUS blue merle collie.... but I actually gasped in awe when I saw this one:



So different from the pup stage, and yet when you see the two together you think "of course!".... I really can't put into words how blown away I am by this creation.


So many great (and creepy!) lineart edits too, but here is my favorite edit of all time:
