I am looking for a number of artists for my new species, somewhere between 3 and 6 people. I would like to close this contest, at the latest, on January 1st (preferably before then if I get a number of decent entries). If you plan to enter, please follow the rules as follows:
1. Please make your own thread for all your entries.
2. You should make at least 3 entries, including one with NO mutation and 1 with Hair. Note that all Mutations are included in the lineart, but Hair is not and you must add that particular line edit yourself. I want to see how well everyone can do simple line edits like Hair, hence why its required for one entry.
3. Please read the information on the main thread, particularly the part about Mutation Rarity and Gene Groups. If you have questions about anything feel free to either post here or PM me about it and I will get back to you asap!
4. If you think you have a good idea for a Mutation that could be added feel free to make an entry with an example and I might consider adding it to the main lines! Whether you become an artist or not, if I use one of your Mutation ideas you will be awarded a custom Lutra.
Note that Small Ears are the default, non Mutation ears for Lutras even though they are on their own layer, and don't forget to add them if you are not adding one of the Mutation ears!
Also note that the Mane mutation may require editing if used with a number of other Mutations, like the Long Ears, Bent Horns, Spiral Horn, and Spike Horn. There was simply no way to make the layers work perfectly together so I'll be keeping an eye out to see if people actually do the required editing or not.
Now for what you really care about, the prizes!
