[SEEKING] little guys

[skinstealer]

we have caught the petz design adaptation bug...and we require more designs to fuel this. in this thread you can make a mini design for us to put in petz and get a heaping pile of forum cash for it- enough to be used towards big rewards!

to start, pick one of these bases and edit away, preferably with the theme options and guidelines we have down below. we're pretty confident in our ability to hex a lot of things, so any kind of animal is fine, along with heavy edits to the base (within reason, simple shapes are always best for us)! wings, tails, weird heads, floating bits/halos, are all really welcome.

you can only submit one of these per month.



customizing one of these things will net you a hefty 500 forum cash. as with all forum cash, you can redeem it for quests/games that use it, roleplay purposes, or even select commissions/adopt batches. think of it like a mini art trade, i guess? 500 cash should get you two rolls on any of our active adopt gachas, at least!

fulfilling the month's bonus theme will get you an extra 250 forum cash. how you interpret the theme is up to you!

designs will have to be approved before the forum cash is sent- we won't suggest huge edits unless it's interfering with the viability of making the design, so play around and have fun. these creatures may also show up as for-fun characters in our petz worldbuild (not likely to be a quest, separate from phantom network/supercyber/friendzoo), so you may see them again in silly graphics/doodles!

rules to follow

- no ring-like markings if you can help it
- anything that can be displayed with a seamless texture is an inherently easier marking to work with than an exact + specific pattern (marbling, tiger stripes, spots, shapes, repeating patterns, etc, all of these are good and honestly really enjoyable)
- if specific markings like distinct patches, make em big, round and chunky, and preferably not on the front legs please god
- any face/head design is fine we're really good at faces by now. stylized faces are especially fun
- quadruped or we'll cry
- purples are viable but they may come out weird, same for greens. execute at your own risk.
- a simple but clear/well executed concept is always better than a super complex one


themes we are interested in

- cute (define as you will, this encompasses a lot of things)
- art (think based on art supplies/styles)
- horror (remember to spoiler if one's particularly spooky. also includes goofy cartoony stuff a la party stores and halloween)
- food (anything goes but especially candy/desserts)
- medical (please be respectful with this one. ask if youre not sure)
- fantasy (especially witchy stuff and mythological creatures)
- referential (feel free to ask what instances of media would qualify under this if you aren't super versed in our interests- we're interested in both stuff referencing our works and the games/movies/etc we enjoy. however- we prefer stuff that pulls from stuff Thematically versus outright design conversion. think color palette and design motifs.)
- scifi (includes tech in general, such as old computers and operating systems)
- nature (anything goes but bonus points for beach stuff)
- rave (includes 2000's deviantart/sparkledog aesthetics, think 90's-early 2000's in general)
- toy (self explanatory. any toy stuff goes)
- love (interpret as you will but hearts/valentine's theme is always good)

this month's bonus theme....

festive! interpret as you wish!

[skinstealer]

perfect! going to send over cash.

[Pichi2214]

have this funky dragon, it ended up a lot more scrangly than i planned but i think its fun anyway askldaj


and!! my guy for the cute theme :> i am really happy with how this one turned out even if its simple, its meant to be covered in a heart texture with red+dark red+white hearts (maybe with a stationary red heart around its left eye, because that'd be cute)

[skinstealer]

sent over cash!! super cute!

[AceOfNothing]

Tried to make a funny little heartbreak man

[skinstealer]

WAH so fun!! really cute!

sending!

[King-Clod]

My thought for this, with heartbreak, was first the eye design, but then a sort of alternate ending Velveteen rabbit.

“Real isn't how you are made,' said the Skin Horse. 'It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real.'

...but what if the Velveteen rabbit never became real?

[skinstealer]

new round: rainbows!

[MonochromeClown]

Hope this is okay! I know it's got a lot of purple in it.

[skinstealer]

ohhh that's so perfect!! this'll be really cute- don't worry, we'll figure out the purple in petz just fine. sending cash!

[AceOfNothing]

very rainbow, very edgy
