The layers are as follows:

Sign - I was thinking of the sign being Zirkus, but since Zirk is the plural form, I put Zirk. I can remove or change~
Lines - For the convenience of line edits with a mouse, I drew this with Pencil, size 3, with 75-85 smoothing.
---------I sharpened the lines with the eraser.
Color - The color is linked to: Full body, Eye and Tongue, Paws + Nails, and the Color pallette.
------------ - A divider layer.
Sketch - Feel free to remove.
LR. Zirkus full view is left - Left and Right labels for paw pads and eyes. The Zirkus' body is facing left.
Jay's Sig - Feel free to remove~
Your Sig - Left it there!
All 5 BGs still there - Chose not to delete in case you wanted to keep them for different Zirk.

No child lines or add-ons, but if you tell me specific details I can do both! I can also add shading/lighting if you don't mind 2 extra layers per stage.

(As an example of specific details; What traits do the Zirk have when they're young? Are their horns or other traits missing or smaller than an adult? What add ons? How many add ons? Do I put lock alpha on the add ons? Etc.)

What traits do the Zirk have when they're young?;;
They generally have very small horns and spikes as babies that grow over time.

What add ons? How many add ons?;;
You can check this out for add-on traits. Its old but all the ones listed there are still a thing. As for amount and lock alpha its up to you

Okay! I'll get working on it soon.

I can add a lot of the add ons, but there will need to be one layer for color + another for the lines. Therefore every add-on will add two layers. Since the eyes would be a simple coloring & there are a lot of them, I'm thinking of leaving the eye add ons out.
So I think I will add, tiny horns, medium horns, mediumish horns, long + very long horns, prolonged horns, 4 spikes, both wings, and long tail.

That's 10 add ons, which means 20 new layers, then at least four more if young Zirk have small visible wings (if they have it as an adult) and if they will already have the extra spikes add on visible (if they have it as an adult).
That would mean 24 layers.

If you don't mind the amount of new layers, I will begin right away!

lol don't worry about layers, you should see my art on sai XD I usually hit the 200 something layer limit.

[SpeedyJay]

I did what I mentioned above~ If the pupils are important, I can still add them if you'd like. :3 I'm going to add you so you can look at the layers and such. I also changed the face shape, because I found it was too wide, but just in case that was what you wanted, I kept it on the lower hidden layers as Old Lines and Old Color.
(The smaller horns are under the layer of the larger horns, so they're hidden behind them.)

[SpeedyJay]

Ignore the part in the above post about the eyes, I added six layers, 3 per stage:

Normal pupil layer, has iris line.
Slit pupil layer, has iris line.
Shaped pupil layer, also has iris line.

Just erase the iris line to be without iris, or erase pupil to be without pupil to keep just iris line, and for colored pupil just color in the pupil. When I first thought of the eye add ons I was over thinking adding all of them separately for some dumb reason.

All eyes are connected to the face layer too, of course.
If you hadn't noticed, the face lines are also connected to the body lines, so there are two face lines and two face colors (connected to body color). So if you're trying to see the adult's eyes on the face template, the young one's face color is above the adult's.

I know you obviously know how layers work, just saying they were attached and duplicated strangely to save space. Because I like to save space. xD

Late to reply, but thank you very much~
Your lines were nice too, I really liked the how the face was shaped, and their front paws are very nice and detailed!
