Yeah guys, you didn't explain it well... Is there any base filw to download? Any app/program to use? Be ause that was what I understood reading this:

How to color a Mutato
Upon opening the base file, you will see five layers named:
Title (remove), Divider, Eye (Rmr to Lock), Top (Rmr to Lock), Bottom (Rmr to Lock)


    I will explain what to do with each of the layers

  • First, make sure you have Lock Alpha checked
    There should never be a time where you need to turn off Lock Alpha
  • Remove the Title Layer
    Self-explanatory
  • Choose ONE SOLID COLOR for the eye color
    Color in the white semi circle at the left of the canvas on the Eye layer
  • Use the Top layer to make a design for the TAIL of the Mutato
    Please note that not all of your design can be used
  • Use the Bottom layer to make a design for the BODY of the Mutato
    Please not that not all of your design can be used
  • Avoid using black and super dark colors
    Dark colors make viewing the lines difficult
  • Make sure the design on the body and tail are noticeably different
    Having both designs the same makes the overall adoptable boring

    I was planning to redo my first entry, but get critique on it first. If I did this, would I be able to get critique on it again after it's been redone? And is there a limit to how many times we may edit and redo our first entry?


Well ideally that'd be okay, but I whether or not you actually receive critique from me depends on my free time and mood XP


    Well in that case, may I please get some critique on my first entry before I redo it? I know it's horrible but, eh, why not.

This is explaining the function of each of the layers in the Oekaki file

Unfortunately there's not much going on/unique about your design so there's not really anything I can comment on
For future reference, always make your first design the best that you can, because this is the only one you have a chance of being critiqued on

Like Akami said. There's no base file, you use the oekaki(Chibi-paint). :)
