[I Like Bees]

Please Note: All of these lists are in no particular order; I just wrote down ideas as they came to mind.

Username: I Like Bees

Species you would like:

- Anything feline (house cats, small cats, big cats, unidentifiable cats, etc.)
- Foxes
- MLP ponies
- Brightly colored birds (bright colors and/or cool feathers, i.e. birds of paradise, golden pheasants, Gouldian finch, etc.)
- Cute dinosaurs (especially with feathers)
- A female black buck (female black buck image) with wings
- Unique, thinking outside-the-box species (hence the above bullet point)

Are there any lines you especially like?:

- Koda's MLP Lines
- Koda's MLP Lines V.2
- iFoo's MLP Base
- Chibi Fox Editable
- PeanutButterRum's Cat Editable
- Tealea's Cat Lines, but with Marilu.'s Edits
- Tealea's Cat Lines (If you use these lines, please line edit them; I'm not a huge fan of them in their original form. If you can't do line edits, try out the editable above.)
- Dinosaur (Raptor) Editable
- Dinosaur Editable
- Adorable Tiny Dog/Wolf Editable (I'm not usually a fan of canines, but I really love these lines if you'd like to use them.)

Any gender preferences?: I'd prefer to choose the character's gender. However, if it has to be one or the other (such as with MLP characters, where the males and females have different muzzles), I'd usually go with female. For birds or bird-patterned animals, males are usually better, since they're usually brighter than the females.

Design inspiration:

- Guide for Cat Genetics (For making realistic cats) (You'll need to be able to zoom in to read everything)
- Palette Ideas (There are multiple pages.)
- I love realistic patterns of colorful birds, but on other animals instead. This link takes you to a Google search for colorful birds. You may need to check that the image is real, and not photoshopped to make the bird look colorful.
- If you've read the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson, anything Mistborn-inspired would be amazing!
- Read through my likes for more ideas, I guess?

Things you like/dislike in designs:

Dislikes:
- Neon or extremely clashing colors
- Gore (scars are alright)
- Anything devil or fallen angel related (I'd prefer nothing regular-angel-themed either, though feathered wings are fine)
- Clowns or anything intended to be creepy
- Anything human, humanoid, or anthro. I prefer characters that look like more like animals than humans. (I think the term is feral)
- Designs that are one solid color, or extremely overly simple
- Colorpoint cats where all the artist does is color it white and airbrush a color on the ears, tail, paws, and muzzle in about thirty seconds. This is probably my biggest pet peeve.
- I'm usually not a fan of realistic horse designs on realistic horse lines
- Canines on lines other than the one linked above. (However, if you're able to make a really good design on another canine line art, feel free to do so.)
- Human hair on animals
- Non-removable accessories
- Too many large accessories
- Piercings
- Full outfits of clothing (Bandanas, socks, or other small things like that are alright, but full outfits are too much)
- Missing limbs
- Extra eyes

Likes:
- Natural designs with unnatural colors (example, example, example)
- Pretty much anything that is creative and unique
- Well-drawn, feathered wings
- Small accessories (on a separate layer so they can be removed)
- Smooth line edits that blend well with the original line art
- "Floating" whiskers (such as the ones on the adorable mascot for this event)
- Mist-related designs (i.e. mist around the feet, a mist-like fur pattern, etc.)
- A mistcloak (On one or more separate layers) (Info: General appearance w/ art by me, another general appearance idea w/ art not by me, official Wiki page w/ accurate info)

Other information:

- If you have any questions, send a trade suggestion to my sister, Featherwind3975 with the question in the message. She'll ask me the question without revealing your username, and I'll respond by posting my answer here. Once she cancels the trade, check that post for your answer.

- Coppas: I really can't think of an easy, or even possible, way for you to anonymously ask me a question, since you can only post on the Oekaki board... Just guess at what I like based off of my gallery and what I've commented on in the past, I suppose?
Tips for Pairing Me With Someone I Can Design Something For:
- I can't do realistic horse patterns to save my life. The same goes for creating anthro/human designs/characters.
- I really enjoy doing realistic cat patterns.
- I'm semi-decent at line edits, but better at accessories.
- I prefer to use pre-made lineart(s).
- I only do digital art on CS, so I can't use off-Oekaki linearts.

Premade characters you would like art of:

1) Pebbleheart (Cat)
2) Abigail (Leafy Sea Dragon)
3) Aeola (Taillow [Bird Pokémon])
4) Brightpatch (Cat) and Minknose (Cat) (Siblings; art of them together would be great)
5) Dusk (Giraffe)
6) Anyone In This Family Picture (All Cats)
7) If nothing above works well for you, here is the link to all of my characters. Feel free to look through them.

Do you prefer to be gifted character designs or art?
I'd prefer character designs, but if you'd prefer to do art, that's fine as well. (:

Things you like/dislike in designs:

Likes: please don't try to stuff all of my likes into the design, please pick out a few things that work together to make a nice design.

☆ stuff that looks like it belongs in a future scifi war
-sci-fi & futuristic

-captain's hat with steampunk goggles (not a pirates hat! )

☆☆☆ -NEON, provided you know how to actually use these eyebleeding colors without killing my eyes completely! If you're not experienced with designing using neon colors i highly recommend choosing a different color theme. I love neons with a darker color- such as blacks/almost black. White/almost white can work well too. My favourite neon combos are orange to pink and blue to turquoise.


Likes only for feral characters:
☆Wearing a skull or has a skull head - especially love this with either a steampunk or rotting theme. my favourite skulls are lion, wolf, aligator, or crocodile skulls. (if its an accessory please provide a version without the skulls)

- natural colors with a dash of unnatural colors
- natural colors with neon hair or with neon markings
-rotting/decay theme
☆long tails

-i'm kina picky with hair on anthros & ferals, so here are a few images as inspiration. i'm more into masculine
i REALLY like hair with braids in it, but not hair that is completely braided. Example, [url=ddd]example[/url]
x

(the following only applies to cats) ☆☆ Bengals cats, especially charcoal bengals

(the following only applies to snakes) ☆ giving them a tophat accessory!
☆ natural patterns for that particular snake species and/or morph

-you can add feathered wings and/or a feather crest in areas to the snake, as i'm currently looking for characters that could be siblings to this character. not required for snakes however, i'd be just as happy with a regular snake. <3


Likes only for anthro characters:
☆ a mix between different species, such as an aligator x otter.
☆ Wearing a skull or has a skull head - lion, wolf, aligator, or crocodile skulls only please.
(if its an accessory please provide a version without the skull)
-backmanes
-long tails
- masculine hairstyles (can be any length, so long as it appears masculine)
- i do really like a juxtaposition using a masculine hairstyle with an otherwise feminine themed design as well

Likes only for dragons:
☆Colors inspired by reptiles (especially geckos)
☆ dragons with scales
-dragons with feathers (NOT fluff/fur/hair.)


Likes only for inklings & octolings
-custom hairstyles
-clothing that really shows something about the character
- custom hats
-the enchanted hat

Likes for Pokemon:
☆☆poke-fusions
☆ pokemon variations (example)
-any poke fusion with cosmog

Dislikes:
- rushed and sloppy designs.
- designs with colors that just don't match
- anything with hoofs
-hair/fur on reptilian species (unless its like a cross between two species, such as an aligator x otter)
-using premade markings from editables.
-designs that have been made using the Oekaki textures.
-tight clothing
-clown theme


-colors that resemble the color of faeces (poop) or a puke color- especially an issue i have with browns, please use NICE browns if you use that color.

- symbols, words, music notes, hearts, flowers or skull markings on the character - these CAN be on removable accessories however.

Dislikes only for feral characters:
-extremely simple designs, such as a character who only has one paw that's a different color.
- designs that are so complex drawing them takes forever - i do love complex designs, but try not to go too overboard. ^^
-hairstyles that isn't on the list provided in the 'l ikes for feral characters' section
-skirts, dresses, trousers, shorts, shirts

Dislikes only for anthro characters:
-Typical male/female body shape- please keep anthro designs androgynous in body shape. ^^
-extremely simple designs
-most feminine hairstyles
- extremely feminine skirts & dresses however this doesn't mean i hate skirts & dresses. just nothing on the extreme feminine side. ^^

Dislikes only for Dragons:
-a plain design with with one color
-dragons with fluff/hair/fur
-insect wings

-dragons that are based off dragons from fandoms. (this isn't counting pokemon dragons!). if you're doing a dragon, it must be an original one-off, not a dragon species from a fandom.

Dislikes only for Inklings & Octolings
-giving them actual human hair. inklings and octolings are cephalopods, and cephalopods don't have human hair.
-Extremely complex clothing that would make drawing them take ages.

Dislikes for Pokemon:
-pokemon that have nothing changed from the official design
-most pokefusions with 4+ pokemon mashed together- if doing a pokefusion please limit it to 2-3 pokemon combined.
-mr mine & mime jr

Other information:
if the character has clothing/accessories i'd like a version without the items so i can see the characters design.

Premade characters you would like art of:
Ohstarllion [unknown species, god-like alien. Lives in the vacuum of space. Their head is the size of Jupiter, so they are very large and have a strong gravitational pull. ]
