Posted on 2017-01-06 12:55:01
ART UPDATE!
This month I decided to go all out and please all artists on Lioden (I hope!)


4.jpg



I have created a new thread for people who want to do Custom Decors, released a ton of .psd's to the public, original sizes of many decors and a TON of .psd's bases for mutations as well as age specific and mane specific main lion bases for custom decors.

I have also shared with community all my brushes and techniques of arting!

My brushes can be found here as well as some tips and examples! Please be aware I work on Photoshop 8.0 (and CS6) exclusively and I am not able to provide to people who use Gimp, SAI and so on. Hopefully somebody will modificate the resources that will be compatibile.

ART TUTORIALS AND PSD's - here I am sharing a ton of decor large size images, .psd's for dynamic decors in large sizes as well as .psd's bases for custom decors for a few mutations! I will add more .psd's as mutations get caught up or added.

Custom Decor Rules thread has been edited to reflect new changes.

You are welcome anytime to follow or bookmark my Twitch channel here where few times a week (I try) I am streaming Lioden art mainly.

I hope all this that I have been preparing for a long time now, will pay off in a way that will help you guys match with Lioden art style more, improve your workshop, techniques, or anything that will be helpful to you, I will be happy about.

My brushes have no copyright, you can use them for anything you want and there's no credit or requirements.

New Base!

Ducat is a new custom base with Medium Countershaded Common Golden genetics.


SEPARATION


We had a lot of suggestions about foregrounds and crafting decors!
Here and Here you can find suggestions that gave me also ideas for BACKDROPS. These are decors that cover also the ground, but are not backgrounds! I noticed they give a ton of new possibilities for your sceneries, so I will for sure add more in future.

I also figured that doing alternative versions of things is very fun and can add even more variety for decoration and ways of getting some items!

Cliff will appear in Monkey Business for 500 SB.
Tropical Cliff will appear in Whack a Snake game.
Rocky Arch will appear in Monkey Business for 500 SB.
Mossy Arch will appear in Whack a Snake game.
Large Leaves Decor can be now crafted from 30x Large Leaves.
Large Rocks Decor can be now crafted from 30x Large Rock.

Check out these examples:

SEPARATION


I have heard a ton of voices saying Snake Scent is very abundant, and it keeps popping up more than it is used. I thought, well, I am not a coder, but there is a way to utilize those amounts!

From now on, Snake Scent 30x can be crafted into Snake Skin Bodywear [Brown].

Also, in explore, you can find a special encounter, but only during DRY season, that will let you collect a Snake Skin - Dark amusment item. You can also find it in Toy Bundles or Elephant Dung.
The dark skin will let you craft Snake Skin Bodywear [Dark]!

SEPARATION


Art Bug Fixes:
Adjusted Female Adult Dwarf lineart at pawpads to fight with markings clipping out.
Good, Kind, Neutral, Snarky and Evil poses had their linearts adjusted in general to prevent markings from clipping outside the lineart.
Survivor decor had areas sliced off for Evil and Male lions.
Neutral not showing Glacial Markings.

Bug Fixes:
Fixed a bug related to raffle glitching on finish and running every hour for few days, picking new winner every time. A note to people involved - original, first winner received the items just fine. We apologize for the chaos the notifications induced.


SEPARATION


EVENT UPDATE - EVENT BATTLES WILL GRANT YOU 1-3 LEATHER BEETLES UPON WINNING.

Primal Mutation information
- It will be located in Boneyard, for no more than 200 LB.
- It will be added to wardrobe and the game when art is finished. I cannot estimate right now. Hoping a week.
- We still can't confirm or deny female version, however we probably won't let females pass it on.


SEPARATIONRemember that the event ends on January 31st at 11:59 pm, and all your currency will be stored in your account until next year.


Shad has added new tags to Misc and Appreciation sections, check them out as usual! :D

Reminding peeps about a genetic document we have! - very nice chart for all our bases, existing and upcoming!

Mutation files will be updated more next week <3 sorry this update drained all my time this week.


SEPARATION

Raffle Lioness


Congrats Raion (#96370)! You have won the last raffle lady!
New mutated lady with Knysna Lagoon background is up for impressing in Special Lioness area in Explore or in NEWS section under News Post List!

Polls and dev notes
Hey looks like you guys were excited to see more event marking applicators. I think we could add some this event and maybe some more in other ones?
New poll LINK - Relevant - which markings though :D ? let's start with some ideas!

I'm super happy to hear that primal *probably* won't be passable through females. Thanks for the awesome updates as usual!

Love the snakeskin decor!!

If females can't pass primal, I'm really hoping they'll visually show the mutation in some way, as a compromise. It woulda been cool if they at least could pass it recessively without visually showing... But to have neither would suck :<

Also yay 200LB that's quite cheap, I can hopefully grab a few this month if I can find them in the boneyard xD
