I hereby consent that if my lined species is picked for a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place prize, the competition owner is allowed to edit and change my lines, create a unique species around my lines, and create adopts to own/give away/adopt out/sell/auction.
creator's notes: there are no shading layers or alternate editable traits/lines, i wanted to leave that for your own artistic freedom and not limit you to all of my ideas, since in theory this should end up being your species, not mine. though if you do pick this species, i'd be more than enlightened to be a co-owner/writer/moderator/artist, etc. i love these guys, thus, i would love to help support them in any way. i'd also be overjoyed to create stamps!
i did have a couple thoughts as well, to help guide you in the direction my mind was in while creating this guy!
they are certainly forest/mountain dwellers who enjoy digging, burrowing, and playing.
they favor cold climates & love to dig in the snow. their front paws are more that of a seal rather than feline.
while creating, i wanted them to have thermal and/or night vision!
i suspect them to be carnivorous, but that's up to you!
i strongly suggest using their stripes as a common feature in their design.
the fur tufts are similar to a cotton candy texture or rabbit coat.
their movement is sporadic and lively, such as a bird or playful kitten.
those are just a few ideas to keep you inspired for this design, as i am very excited and eager to see if you do anything with them. ^^ if not, i am more than happy to do something with them myself, so don't feel guilty if turning this concept down! ♥️
