Sand Surfer #31 - Custom for tawnypelt3

Sand Surfers are small, furry creatures that stand about a twenty inches tall, fifteen inches long, and weigh an average of seven pounds for both genders. These animals are native to the deserts of Egypt, India, and Africa. The Sand Sufer's coat is thin and soft, making for easy travel across the sand. You may have noticed the large tail at the ends of their bodies. Sand Surfer's use their muscled tail to "surf" across sand in the desert. These creatures live mainly underground in complex tunnels that are about five feet below the surface to keep cool. Sand Surfers are omnivores, meaning they eat both meat and plant material. A common food of the species are small rodents, small birds, small reptiles, berries, grasses, and nuts. They also eat eggs of other animals when they can get their hands on them.

I'd like a custom from Puffee!

Username ::
tawnypelt3

Sand Surfer name ::
I'll decide later.

Sand Surfer gender ::
Most likely male, but I'll decide later.

Description ::
A sort of combination of the African palm civet and the (light morph) desert monitor. The palm civet has a pale face, a golden body with light belly and dark-spotted back and flanks, and a striped tail. The desert monitor has a pale tannish body with near-white spots on its back and legs, brownish bands on the back and tail, and greyish stripes on the snout and sides of the head, neck, and body. Italicized words are characteristics I especially wish to see in my custom. c: Since I already own this guy, I would like the custom to be more gold in color, so as to avoid looking too similar, but I really like the palm civet's pale face. I do like stripes on both of these animals, though not necessarily the monitor's spots. I dunno, if you put spots in, you might be able to make them look appealing to me. The rest is up to you.

More African (or two-spotted) palm civet refs:

This one isn't the same species, but I like the reddish tint to it, in case you would like to integrate it into the custom.

Hex codes ::
Nah, you got this. :3

Any line edits or accessories ::
[Optional.]

Payment ::
Is this one okay? I can add, or offer something else. I feel like a single very common is too cheap, even though your price is "any WL pet." I'll probably add no matter what you say. :3


    This one was a little tricky for me, so I really hope you like it. I had fun with it all the same though. c:
    I struggled a lot with the grey monitor stripes, so I apologise if that looks bad.
    If there's anything that you're not happy with, let me know so I can fix it. <3
    Also, please let me know name and gender. ouo

I'm kinda sad that you couldn't get the horizontal stripes on the neck, from the desert monitor refs, but really, he is great. I feel like if you change anything, it'll not look right. I dunno. Feels.

Yeah, he's totally male. Don't ask me for a name yet, I have no idea.

    Yeah, I'm reeeeeeaaaaaallly sorry about that. I tried to get it but it just would not look right.
    I don't mind trying to change that, but only if you want. o3o

    If you'd like, I could try to change that. I'll take a screenshot of it and get your approval before I save it. c:
