[Guest]

As of August 28th 2024 I'm going to be very slow with these. I'm going through a lot of very serious personal things and want to focus more on myself and my family ! These are not closed, just don't expect lightning quick returns. I never don't do things, though! Thank you for understanding, have a good day or night!

*I'm not sure if this kinda thing is allowed! So mods feel free to lock/delete if it isn't! I figured it's okay because it's just a c4c except I do every single one, and I see plenty of c4cs!
Hi! This is a thread for design trades, which is just a Character for Character thread except I do every entry!
How this works: You design me a character based on my listed likes/dislikes, and then you give me your likes/dislikes/or pallet(s)/moodboard(s)/etc you like, and I'll make you a character return! It's similar to a c4c, except I do every single one :) so no "claiming" or anything, if you participate, you're guaranteed to get a character!
The Rules:
*I will be returning all of these ! However, please put some effort into your side, as in, no scribbles/5 second drawings! As long as there's a clear effort [you do NOT have to be an experienced artist to enter at all], you will get a character in return!
*Once I give you your character, you're free to do whatever you wish with it. Sell it, trade it, redesign it, it's all yours!
*I will NOT be drawing humans for my returns, but everything else, anthro included, is fine by me!
*You can do as many of these as you want!! If you make multiple, I'll make multiple! You can make 1 or 10, I don't care!
*You can make your design offsite/on another program. However if you post it here put a drawing on the cover so it doesn't get locked. OR you can DM me the offsite designed character, if you'd like to use a base and such you can DM me it or link it back here with a cover. Just follow the rules!
*I will not draw anything that goes against CS rules (like severe gore) or is considered offensive!
*Remember to add me!

My likes/dislikes will be updated often as I think of more things! Nothing will ever be removed, new stuff just gets added! A warning this list is LONG! A tldr would be; I like natural cats or semi-natural cats, and any dessert themed monsters/creatures for my oc universe, I prefer mammals especially unique ones like a maned wolf or a quoll or something, and love colorful designs so long as they aren't severe eyestrain!

Likes:
-Sweet/dessert/candy/Idk sugary cereal themed monsters/mythical creatures/cryptids for my candyland universe! [Does not have to be a specific dessert or candy or sweet can just be vaguely inspired by it in pallet/accesories! All candyland characters are feral, so a mermaid would be a merdog/cat/etc, same with half snake/half spider, etc, and werebeasts are just big ol' wolves/cats/idk deer/etc. ] for clarification: This is a pretty specific thing that is something I do. I combine monsters, cryptids and mythical creatures with sweets, like [examples, they don't exist... yet] a half-moon cookie werewolf or a gummy shark mermaid dog or cat. These fellas can have the same dessert/sweet theme as existing characters, or be the same species as existing characters! *** [These are my priority rn!]
-Natural/Semi-Natural Cats! **** [These are also my priority rn!]
-Cats with semi-natural colors or markings but not 100% "realistic" [like with unrealistic markings or genetically inaccurate colors, etc. Like a ginger cat with a blue gray colored tail or something]
-Semi-Natural cats with designs inspired by other animals! [Like a cat with a design inspired by a bird or insect!]
-I prefer mammals! I love canines [maned wolves, african wild dogs/painted dogs, foxes] Felines [Tigers, Leopards, Snow Leopards, Clouded Leopards, Lynxes, Cheetahs, Caracals etc], Hyenas [Striped, Spotted, Etc], Mustelids [Wolverines, Badgers, Ferrets, Skunks], Bears, Deer [Tufted deer, Fallow Deer, etc], Bats, Weirder species like Coatis, Fossa, etc. just all mammals!
-Domestic Dogs I like [For clarification, I like pretty much all dogs, these are just some ideas]: Mixed Breeds, Huskies, German Shepherds, Pitbulls, Collies, Corgis/Swedish Valhunds [Absolute favorite dog breed!], Bernese Mountain Dogs, Mudi, Shiba Inu, Australian Cattle Dog, Dobermans
-Domestic Cat Breeds I like [For Clarification I like all domestic cat breeds, these are just some ideas!]: Domestic Short or Longhairs, Lykois, Bengal, Turkish Angora, Javanese, Munchkin, American Bobtail, Somali, Siberian Cat, Norwegian Forest Cat, Siamese/All pointed cats [Balinese, Ragdoll, etc]
-Extinct mammals! thylacines, saber-tooth tigers, dire wolves etc.
-Marine Mammals are cool! I'd prefer them hybrid/mixed with a land animal though as I can't draw them amazing on their own! Species I like: Orcas, Amazon river dolphins, Seals [Love leopard seals and ribbon seals!], narwhals!
-Hybrids! LOVE fish/mammal hybrids, reptile/mammal amphibian/mammal and bird/mammal hybrids! Or even just mammal hybrids if they're interesting!
-Reptiles I like [To clarify i love all reptiles, insects, fish, and birds but these are just examples]: SNAKES [Especially pythons and all the color variants], Leopard geckos [Especially all the color variants/pastel leopard geckos], Skinks, Frilled Neck Lizards, Iguanas
-Insects/Arachnids I love: Spiders [Especially Jumping spiders, big fan of rainbow jumping spiders!], Mantises, Moths! [Madagascar Sunset Moth and Luna Moths being my favorites], Butterflies, Weevils [Love these pathetic beasts], Scorpions, Bees, Dragonflies!!!
-Fish I like: SHARKS [tiger sharks being my favorite, also love leopard sharks, whale sharks, and the extinct megalodon !], parrot fish, clown fish, octopus/cuttlefish/squid
-Birds I like: Birds of Prey [Ospreys and kestrels are my favorite, as well as spectacled owls!], ALL Corvids/jays [especially green jays and hooded crows], parrots/parakeets, peacocks/peafowl
-Amphibians I like: Frogs [Love any kind of dart frogs and red-eyed tree frogs], Axolotls, Salamanders [Love tiger salamanders!]
-Mythical creatures/cryptids/monsters in general! I love all of them from zombies to dragons and even more obscure ones! My biggest loves are Werewolves/Any type of werebeast, especially creative kinds like a werebadger for instance!
-Fluffy!
-Colorful!
-Natural with a pop of unnatural!
-Retro pallets/themes! LOVE LOVE retro things! 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s mainly but love anything really!
-Heterochromia!
-Unique Markings/Mutations/Color Variants of an animal [Like a silver/black fox, piebald deer, etc you get it]
-Cute accessories! Collars, bows, etc!
-Space/Galaxy/Starry Designs. Moons, planets, aliens, anything space related.
-"Scary" looking guys who are actually sweet/have cute designs
-Mythical, fantasy themes in general
-Love different body types on characters!
-All and any variants of rainbow! Muted, pastel, bright, or the 4 colors/not whole rainbow are all my thing!
-Crystals, gems. Or crystal/gem based designs!
-I like all and any colors/color pallets as long as they look good together!
-Scene aesthetic/any aesthetic with kind of excessive accesories/sparkledogs/cats/whatever animal
-Half and half/chimera [pattern], and Piebald are some of my favorite color mutations!
-Skulls, bones, all that fun stuff!
-Seasonal themed designs!
-Feel free to poke around my toyhouse! all my ocs have designs I adore!
-Anything not on my dislikes pretty much!

Dislikes/Guidelines:
-Severe eyestrain [I LOVE colorful but things that are extraordinarily intense are just bad for my sensitive eyes I do LOVE rainbow and certain neons just not things made with the intent to hurt eyes haha]
-EXTREMELY complex designs. I want to be able to draw these fellas!
-Nothing disrespectful or offensive please! [Like if making a monster or creature, please do your research! If unsure feel free to ask me what i'm comfortable with via DMS!]
-Humans [They're just not fun for me to draw! If you make me a human/humanoid I would probably like to make them into an animal so if you're okay with that you can make one!] only exception is non-Candyland related Werewolves/Werebeasts/or humanoid monsters [like vampires]!
-Solid colored designs unless if something unique is added to them! Like if a solid colored cat has a unique feature like a bobbed tail or heterochromia or an accessory!
-Gross/clashing color pallets
-Severe gore/creepy vibes! I like cute things generally! Slight creepy/dark vibes are fine! For clarification I do not consider arachnid/snake hybrids to be scary at all and enjoy/encourage them! I also like creepy cute things a bunch!
If you're unsure, please feel free to DM me or comment questions on here! Have fun, thanks for reading!
