Species Concept

Postby Pure Dragon » Thu Dec 20, 2012 1:39 pm

Annoyed by the lack of original species on CS, I decided to make one. It turned out a bit... odd. xD But, I wanted to throw it out there and see if there was any interest in them. Here's a few basic facts:

1: They cannot read (including music) and have a very limited vocabulary.
2: They learn music by sound, as they cannot read sheet music.
3: They communicate mostly with simple sounds, though do (as mentioned in 1) have the ability to speak a bit of English.
4: There are many types, as sorted by what instrument they resemble. Some examples are violin (shown), guitar, and pipes.
5: In most types (strings instruments), they strum/bow with their tail and play notes with their left or right front paw.
6: They have large, cupped ears with ridges to help capture and fine-tune sound.

If I did continue these, I would need help from someone experienced in really... making the species. What I mean is, get them on their feet. And, help run the thread as I often get busy. But first let's see if there's an interest in them. ^^

I like it! I play the cello, so I'd be more interested if there was a cello one. But I'm interested either way :D

I'd probably have a cello type available. ^^ I made this species up completely within the 21 minutes it took me to draw it, so I haven't gone into much detail about the types. It'll be more about whether or not I can get an instrument to look good than anything else. :3

They're so cute! ovo
But a suggestion, perhaps make a whole bunch of different instruments? x) That'd be a ton of work, but it'd be so cool! Herpaderp, I clearly didn't read the first post well enough xD
I would totally adopt one, and help you with the species any way I could. :3

Thanks you all! c: And yep, I'm going to try making lots of instruments, 5 at the very least.

Rainy, I thought about piano (just as I posted the sketch, actually x3) and I'm not really sure how well that would work but I can try. ^^ And maybe you can help, I'll have to see. ;3

If you'd like some help with instrument concepts, I'd gladly sketch out a few ideas! xD
Otherwise I look forward to seeing these as official adopts! *cough has totally not been waiting for Pure Dragon adopts cough*
