Final thoughts & favorite outcomes from February

I’m very interested to see how these turn out! It looks like an egg yolk on its face haha

Pet's name: Uros
I think the general consensus is that they look like clowns. Cant say I disagree! I love the color palette!

MissionFlight knows how to work with light colors! They remind me of their story book butterfly wolves from (April?) last year and they were my absolute favorites out of 2024. I love the purple hues. I’m super excited for these!

Pet's name: Gopinath
These dogs are very pretty. I particularly love the floppy ears on this PPS!

Im guessing that they are those twist lollipops? But at first I thought they were straws lol

Pet's name: Deryn
Ope I was right the first time! I really like how these horses were executed! I love the variety of fruits chosen and the manes being hints for the next outcome was a really fun addition.

I think this’ll be water themed. So vibrant!

Image
Pet's name: Jožica
Wow am I smart! I’m glad there were some additions into the water on most ponies. They turned out nicely.

If you read my posts every month, you know how I feel about celestial themes. I’m so excited!!! They go right along with MissionFlight’s dogs

Image
Pet's name: Min-Seo
Absolutely gorgeous just like I knew they’d be!!! I love the variation of patters and colors and how these horses stars are so perfectly interwoven!

ANOTHA ONE wow I am going to have a great birthday. These colors so amazing!!!

Image
Pet's name: Kandake
I love the fun space pastel theme! Not exactly what I expected but in a good way! It’s super cute and unique!

I’m predicting some sort of animal theme with these hamsters

Image
Pet's name: Mellony
I think I was right??? Lots of people saying boars. Would love to see a reveal from the creator so I can name them properly :)

The tie dye horse was part of the first horse litter I ever adopted 🥲 can’t believe that was more than 7 years ago. I think the mate is a perfect pairing and I’m really excited to see how they turn out!

Image
Pet's name: Pythagoras
I really love all the colors but this outcome is just so striking! This was a great pairing! I did a little searching and found that the black parent was called “Despair” by its artist so this litter is called the Tye-Dyespair in my books

Mysticality wrote:Image
Well I cannot tell anything from this but my gut is telling me a fire theme for some reason

Image
Pet's name: Kilie
Not Fire, but even cooler tbh. I think these are clearly panther chameleons! So pretty! Would also love to know what colorings they are all based on! Googling them is kind of difficult haha.

Anther Susiron Fox litter! I love rainbow themed pets but I’m interested to see what the texture is. Reminding me a little but of that comic book style.

Image
Pet's name: Sobeslav
The dragon theme is really cool. I love all the colors and both of the PPS outcomes. Wonderful job!

February did not disappoint. Thank you artist for a great birth month for me!

The hammies weren't based on anything in particular. I found a lovely colour palette that somewhat reminded me of birch trees/forests and rolled with that, but I didn't really go for anything realistic. I am fond of them, though!

This one is my favourite because he has green feet:

Oooooh so many wonderful pets for February! I wanted to ramble a bit about my favorites 💜

Image
These hamsters are so cute! They make me think of like cream designs on top of coffee. This one is my favorite of the litter, I think

Image
I love the glass effect for these horses, and how energetic the designs feel with the smoothies all sloshed around. The banana one is my favorite in particular; I love the colors

Image
This horse litter has such neat markings and a lovely palette. I really like the balance this guy has

Image
I love the variation of pond stuff for these guys. I really like the shade of green for the leaves in this one too

Image
I adore this litter; they all looks so soft! The floppy ears are too cute too. This fella in particular is my favorite, I think, but they're all up there

Image
I love the realistic designs for these chameleons, and how much the colors all POP. I really love the blues on this guy in particular

Image
The rendering on these guys is stellar (pun intended). I just love how much the white markings pop on them

Image
These guys are just so unique and neat?? Like that cheeky grin in particular really sells it. I also love how bold the colors are on them

Image
These guys are so soft, and I love the colors used in their designs. The little moon on this guy is particularly cute <3

For my foxes, I already mentioned that they're inspired by dragons, but in particular I think my favorite of their designs would be a tie between these two

Thank you for posting these! Somehow, it just didn't click that the litter was based off real chameleons! I don't know chameleon genera well, but your guesses look dead-on.

Love this fox ngl, reminds me of the trans flag

Pretty sure it just straight-up is the trans flag. If anything, maybe the transmasculine flag?

It looks like we're got the agender flag too, maybe.
Image

Some of the others look like they could be pride pets, too.
Looking forward to a breakdown of these pets.


Any resemblance they have to pride flags is purely coincidental, but as a transmasc artist I'm delighted the blue one unintentionally wound up close to one of my flags 💜

In terms of inspiration, these foxes are all just inspired by dragons, in a very loose sense. I love dragons and just had fun with picking colors, markings, and scale patterns that I liked the look of 💜

The black one is the only fox that has more direct inspiration (a specific dragon)

Ohh, okay. I see. That's actually insane though, the distinct stripes in the ears especially had me convinced that was intentional, as it seemed to imitate the stripes of the flags. Not to mention the litter started with a rainbow cloth over the foxes.

Thank you for clarifying!

The designs for this month were awesome. Of special love for me were the foxes of course but also the smoothie horses! I'm not normally a horse person but these were very cool.

I'm so late to this LOL but yes these chams are indeed panther chameleons! Devik found some IMPRESSIVELY close photos!

To be honest, there's so much variety in these guys, I felt like I only scratched the surface of panther colorations even with 9 outcomes haha.

In my files, I have the color morphs/subspecies(? forgive me I am an amateur herpetology nerd at best) listed as:

Image - Ambanja
Image - Ambilobe
Image - Diego Suarez
Image - Maroantsetra
Image - Nosy Be
Image - Sambava
Image - Tamatave
Image - Ankify
Image - Female of course :)
