Still not over these cuties. <3

If you don't mind, I'd like to ask a few questions!
How do you come up with designs so quickly? Do you like, pick a color palette and work from there?
Do you have pen pressure?
What sort of brush do you use (texture/size/etc)?

Thanks for your interest!

I actually don't think I come up with designs that quickly, haha. Most of the recent ones I've posted were created in September actually. I just got in the groove and made a lot of designs before school started. I've been slowly releasing them ever since, though now I'm down to my last one. To create a design, I look at a lot of real animals for inspiration, I also look at designs by my favorite artists. For colors, I usually pick one color to start with, then go from there by picking colors that go nicely with it. I only use an actual palette for RU pallios, but that's only because I ask the winner for one.

And yes, I have pen pressure.

Here's the brush settings I use for official pallio adopts, every pallio was drawn with this:

Thanks to everyone that's marked this thread ever since!

I just updated the helpful things section with a little story about how I created pallio dogs, check it out if you're interested!

Most importantly though, as some of you know, I've been working on creating an RPG world type thing for pallios. I like my species, but I don't like the fact that there's really nothing to do with them after you adopt. Sure, you could RP, but it can be hard to RP if there's no setting or anything. So this is my attempt at having this species be more than just a pretty design.

As finals weeks is creeping up on me at school, I currently don't have time to work on it much, but here's the basic outline I have so far for the world:

- World will be heavily inspired by various RPG games. Game I'm basing it the most on is Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced, as it's one of my all time fave games. Plus, I just plain like it's lore.

- I don't know how many race/species I plan to create, but so far I have pallios, this species, these lil' guys, and my newest species. I also plan on having one be an open species, but w/ strict regulations.

- There will be monsters! I've always wanted to create a bestiary, so might as well take this opportunity to do so. I'll be designing my own versions of common RPG monsters (slimes, wolves, ect.) to populate the world. The monsters would give some good RP stuff, like fights, quests, and such. I also have event ideas with them.

- Guilds will maybe be a thing if I can figure out how to do it.

Note that I consider the above the main universe for pallios and the other species, the "canon" you could say. People are always free to do AUs for RPs however, such as as feral version one (that's why I draw feral/anthro versions for my species).

Uh, so yeah, that's what I've got planned for the species. I just really want people to have something to do after they adopt.

Feel free to post with your thoughts on this!
