This is a template to marking suggestions.
You can design a marking with extreme detail so I can clearly see how to incorporate them to Lioden.

To get a nice smudge/blend effect just make a note on the image where it should blend (you can use arrows and notes).

To get a gradient effect just use gradients.

You do not have to be perfect - I am the artist of the site and I will make sure it looks good on our lions if I accept your marking, by changing things up a bit. Don't be upset if it looks a bit different than your suggestion, it's probably due to anatomy issues on official art (yes I am aware that damned teen males are horribly stretchy, etc ;_;). Or just my taste or knowledge on how to blend with other markings.

Please use existing colours of markings, to suggest new colours make a separate thread.

Stuff that needs a note:
Piebalds or black patches/somatic mutations - they do not belong here. Already suggested as mutations. They will NOT be markings.
Chimerism or erythrism - they do not belong here. Already suggested as mutations.

RULE no.1
Please only use the template to explain markings, link it in your post only, no other pictures to explain the markings. Preferably do not use Photobucket. It is horribly hard to preview it.
DO NOT post without a suggestion. I will remove any comments or questions. If you want to ask if I'd make Onyx Dorsal variation, make a separate thread. This one is for suggesting NEW MARKINGS!!!!

We can take into consideration suggestion of colours or rarity but it is finally up to the development team what exactly will happen.

How do I draw the marking???
There is a layer that is clipped into the BASE layer - you can draw there. It will never go outside the base/lineart and you can freely draw there without worrying you're going outside the lines.
If you want to make a light marking, simply darken the base - select BASE layer, click CTRL+U, lower lightness. To make a dark marking, just do the same, but make the lightness higher! Click OK and you can go back to "DRAW MARKINGS HERE" layer and draw!

Optionally there are .jpg and .png versions - you can use them as linearts and draw over them with multiply layer settings so the lineart appears as if it's over the marking.

To save just save this as .jpg and upload to an image hosting site like imgur, then link here in your post!

THREAD SUGGESTIONS THAT I ACCEPT/CONSIDER AND LOCK and move here (cause you guys have THIS thread to suggest markings, please):
Dim white/Cream
White Ends/more mane markings variations
Under Silky
Ginger/Feline
Mane/Tail - roots
Crest/mane
Embers
Gold Unders+
Red/Orange Mane marks
more Siamese & also
White/Onyx Crackle
New Vitiligo Marking
Another Vit suggestion
More Feline colour versions
Mooer markings
Body Banding
Cheetah Spots
Onyx Cobweb/White Feline

ACCEPTED WITH OR WITHOUT CHANGE: (note: I decided to cut many colours from suggestions, some were way overdone) Also please keep in mind I am not able to accept everything at once. I am adding markings to Lioden in a slow progress. Just because I haven't picked you here yet doesn't mean I didn't accept it for future!
Genteel by #35395
Under White 6 by 12402
Skull by 44784 (originally half skull)
Leg Spotting by 36600 - accepted with two variations, strong and fading
Under White 5 by 34967 - I really liked the inverted look of this one.
Feline 5 by 34967 - originally Lynx Point
Marozi by 23945 - went for erased look rather than drawn spots to not have it too similar to rosette or panther. We'll see how it works out.
Freckles by 23945 - accepted in 3 variations
Inverted Brindle by 36600 - Originally White Understripes. I did not like the tiger look, so I went for a softer result.

Batch 2
by 23472 - as event marking.
by 3067 accepted as event marking under name "Blotchy",
by 59509 accepted as event marking under name "Foreshadow".

Batch 3 - keep in mind I removed them from the thread as I picked them, I not always have the pictures saved so this batch I cannot link back to.
59509 - Saddle, Cozy
11149 - Shepherd
66929 - Tuxedo, Patch
14892 - Cheetah marks, Margay

9029 - Dapple
44932 - Feline 8
44784 - Blanket, Cape
26260 - Vitiligo 8

Notes:
- I CANNOT accept designs that look like fantasy tribal swirls, tattoos, intricate designs, etc.

This being said, I will DELETE suggestions that I reject instantly. Please don't be angry, this thread is for _ME_ to use from your ideas. If you want to share your ideas with world, deviantart etc are great place.
PLEASE don't feel bad if I rejected it. Stuff just doesn't fit sometimes. Don't give up, draw new ones!



This suggestion has 246 supports and 1 NO support.

A simple marking but incredibly useful for custom lions.

For example, if you have a full body marking but you don't like the way the legs pair up, you can use this marking to cover them up! For this reason, they should come in both dark and light colours.

And it still works as a normal marking too! [Click for Larger Size!]

lioden_starry_by_rushingstream-dcglas1.png

I find that celestial speckles just don't cut it for stars. It is pretty good, but since
it isn't white, it doesn't allow for an eye catching design. I would like to have something
more white that can pass for stars. Celestial is also pretty lackluster with the new Interstellar base, since the base has brighter, whiter stars in it.

I made the marking in the picture to be more starry, but I'm sure more sparser
white speckling would work. Vitiligo doesn't work too well for starry designs in my opinion,
since it is quite heavy.

Mock up with Sunset base and Onyx back:

I have a couple of suggestions here!

KDUsWR7.png
bpoYwWO.png

First is... "Zorilla cape?" Uncreative name, yes, but I'd like to announce that I adore stripes that run horizontally like that. The pattern makes a rough arrow on the back, but it's only a sample and anything can go.
Second is an abyssinian/ticked tabby mockup, with a representation of this fading opacity thing. Alternatively, the whole thing except for the facial markings is slightly transparent. I've suggested silver as a color because of the "blue abyssinian" color, whose combination of grey and cream is fantastic in my opinion. The real kicker, though, is that dashing set of cheek marks.

Maybe a Meerkat marking Applicator, like the king cheetah app? It would have to be two crafted apps, body and mane. maybe made with meerkat carcasses and skulls.? Or just Oasis marking, maybe the mane marking is craftable only.

This is an idea I've had for a while for more of a gradient/dotted marking that covers just the lion's hindquarter and back/belly area, but avoids the shoulders, which doesn't seem all that common in markings to me.
The color is by no means set in stone, either– I feel a lot of other colors could also work just as well.

I am in LOVE with the Interstellar Bases, So thought it would be amazing to have some markings to go with the Base Theme.. These would be Base only or Breed only markings that would have a higher chance for the Interstellar bases but a very low chance to pass on to non Interstellar bases. perhaps a craft-able marking or event marking.

This can also be made with black holes instead of Galaxies, I was also thinking using one of the "striped" markings like feralis but lighter (less stripes) doing comets or meteors as the stripes?? I'm just not artistic anymore so I'm sure one of you more artistically inclined could run with these ideas.

oop, didn't realize brand new markings were supposed to go here so that's my bad. If you click it, it goes to a thread a made with some colored mock-ups.

I think we need a spotty butt. Preferably a bright colored flamboyant spotty butt.

tetra marking idea i dont have a text tool so sorry if the handwriting is a bit messy.
translation of what it says in the picture:
Marking name: tetra
Suggested colors and rarity: probably a tier 1 mark, maybe tier 6 or 3. Colors: silver, quartz, white, etc. If [tier] 3, maybe arctic?

Not sure if there’s something called dapples already.

Seems similar to another suggestion above, but decided to post it anyway.

There’s something called ‘[colour] paws’ but this is more to the toes, not the whole paws, so I consider it something else!

This is a quite not visible marking I’d say, but it does add some shade.

I recently found myself looking at melanistic zebra photos, the usual stripes were hard to recognise, but the markings looked very interesting so I made new zebra markings. Not sure about the rarity though.

I call these zebra heavy and these have two variants: regular zebra heavy and zebra heavy inverted / zebra light.

Also I made some mock ups on my post.

Here are some rough ideas for a pinstripe marking!! I think it would be some sort of applicator for an event ^-^

I just used pink and 100% opacity since it's easy too see ^-^
