The striped on is a lion fish and this one could be a betta:

But what about the two others?

The red one could be a betta too and the blue one looks like some kind of octopus I think... But I honestly have no clue XD I'll do some fish research! =D

Ghost horsie! (yes, I know that's not what it is, no need to correct me XD)


But delaying the release of the regular horses was just mean :cry: I stayed up late to adopt the new pets just so they would grow before I usually log on, but now the (evil) horses are going to keep lagging behind all the rest. (I hate timezones...)

I know i love them! bought them all!! new pets are released at 1am here XD, but so worth it, the pets this month are amazing, best i have seen this year so far ^^

2 am where I live, which is why I'm a bit tired and cranky today XD The store pets are awesome, I love them even more than the ones before.
I'm Sagaline on Flight Rising as well. If you can't find me here I might be over there.

So a shiny new thread, a bunch of new pets and a whole new month coming?
Let's get it started :)
I am especially fond of the 3rd gens for some reason or the other.

Hoarding three of this months litters is going to kill me >.< - Such a beautiful month, I'm extremely pleased.

Selcouth mentioned that the blanket didn't have much to do with these pups which is a little disappointing. I had already gotten my hoard of them up to around 45 before I saw the message though. My own dogs name is Nuclear Bomb so it's understandable why I wanted to hoard them. However - Despite that the blanket is a bit misleading, I love the dual colours on this pup. I'm a sucker for simplicity so if the pups stay pretty simplistic in design, I imagine I will still love them as much as I do in pup form.

Image

From what I've seen of Atwoods previous creations, I can't see how I'm not going to love this litter - Thus - Another hoard. Up to 40something on them as well. :3 - My favourite pets on CS are the ones with more natural designs so if these pups stay true to colours and blanket, I can't see how I won't love them. Really hoping to see some wild pups we haven't seen before out of these.

Image

Sorren, I must say, you have done a magnificent job on picking out these beauties parents. The Hyena Advent, and his offspring, are easily my favourite designs on CS so - of course- you have forced me into the third hoard of this months pets. They're all stunning and I can't wait to see if the blankets represent anything on each individual pup. Sort of hoping for a collar of each colour on them.

Image

I'm not as interested in this litter as the others but the Panda is absolutly adorable on the blanket. Bear-Dogs? - Either way, having pets that are supposed to be another species gets me excited every time. I'm not fond of bears, but I can only imagine that these will be stunning in their adult form. Once again, the natural simplicity of them makes me a little ga-ga.

Image

I'm not a fan of horses and ponies so having one that looks like it's going to be a natural designed pony doesn't appeal to me much. I'm sure they will be beautiful and since they do have the natural colours, I imagine I will keep on of each. But I don't have much else to say about them.

Image

Late arrivals may just turn out to be my favourite horse designs ever. Appearing to look like a fawn, Yulynh has inspired me to be be interested in a horse outcome for the first time. If they stay true to newborn suggestion, I'm going to be incredibly pleased.

Image

A very... interesting colour combination. Very intrigued. If the adult cat linearts appealed to me more, I might consider another hoard of these. I love how the blanket appears to be completely mis-matched from the colours on the kitten. I'm really hoping to see some of the dark shades of purple and black hand in hand with the turquoise and browns. It would be a leap in the artistic world - Something that wouldn't seem to match well but I could imagine very beautiful outcomes. ^.^ Great job, Ricorn.

Image

Natural tabbies = awesome. However, as stated before - I'm not a fan of the adult linearts. They will be beautiful I'm sure, but the lineart will take away from them. So many natural coloured pets - I don't know what to do with myself.

Image

Not much to say about these, really. Not a fan of pink although the splatter pattern does interest me.

Image

CUCUMBILLERS! - I'm going to be severely disappointed if these BWs have nothing to do with veggies just because of the sheer hilarity of Cucumbillers. I totally support them and hope for the best. >3

>.> - Normally - I really love rats. All the designs are beautiful and I *really* love the lineart for them. However, I don't see much prospect in these. The colour combinations are pretty, but I think it will be best to wait to leave any real comments on these. Ricorn may surprise me yet.


Image

Really not a fan of this months store pets at all although this is my favourite outcome if I had to choose. I love the idea of the mythology behind them and they were *really* nicely done - It's just not appealing to my specific tastes. I have to give congrats to the lineart edts and beautiful transparency of the fins though.



All in all, I am... extremely pleased with this months pets. I don't think I've had a month like this in a while where I must hoard at least 3 litters and still debating on another one or two. :'D - Congrats to all of you artists this month, did a beautiful job.

I'm very different, i love the adult cat lineart more then the 2nd and 1st stage, they just dont appeal to me, i think all the pets from this month are gonna be amazing, but then you should never judge a book by its cover, i'm loving the horses and ponys way more then any of the other pets so far

If you look carefully they resemble watermelons a lot!

D: I'm really disappointed with myself for starting up yet ANOTHER hoard. But I love those little cucumbillers so much...
