adult, she/her or they/them. some of my favorite bands/artists are sisters of mercy, kate bush, blue oyester cult, the mamas and the papas, and lana del rey :) I love warrior cats, marvel rivals, nature documentaries and rocky horror!

It's great to see you're interested and you have some good skills! Gonna leave some individual feedback for each collie on their respective pages, but my biggest bit of advice for you is to actually make the adult version first, and then translate them to the pups! This is because the adults are the main version, and it is a lot easier to plot out markings and such on the default lines than the pups and then match them accurately, plus we very often have the pup version covered by a sweater on the official whelping page!
This way you make either all the adults then all the pups, or adult one, pup one, then adult two, pup two. Then you post it with the pups showing, and when you "colour in" for the individual pups it's just a matter of having the correct folder showing :>

Edit: oh also! A little tip that will help make all your designs look that little bit better, colouring the lineart a darker colour than the marking (eg a dark blue and grey where it's white) but leaving the eyes and nose line black gives it a more unified look! You can see examples on any collie in my gallery!

This is more great advice, thank you!
I completely blanked out on the fact that you can literally have different layers hidden/showing despite doing it for each post lol. I even thought "how convenient would it be if I could..."
I appreciate you taking the time to comb over my entries - I will definitely try to implement your tips and critiques into my future attempts/edits.
Very grateful, and I hope you've had a wonderful day!
