Welcome!


If you've pmed me and we spoke already feel free to jump right in, if you're new send me a message if you're interested in joining this collab, or just curious about it ^.^

Introduction


So, I find it difficult to upkeep my adopts/rps as there's times where I can't get online and so threads come to a stand-still fairly easily. A group collab, I believe, would help with adopt stand-stills! We can help if you have an artists block, whether that be with your artwork or writing, if you're sick and not feeling up to the work you can still feel involved or if you've got to go away on holiday or for work/college/school etc you've got others to make sure the adopt "work"-load doesn't build up and become a hassle instead of a joy ^.^

The Theme


So far it's pretty broad, the apocalyptic theme is the main standing point. However, even though it's 'the end of the world' these adopts still need some joyful, eye catching theme, macarb is great but don't make anything to gruelly (As gore can stray against the rules and can make many people uncomfortable and not want to join in).

Style


Different art styles and writing styles are welcome ^.^
However, writing needs to be to a decent standard (But the other writers can help touch up pieces if you've got a good idea but are finding it hard to express).
As for the art, while different styles are excepted, they'll need to be okayed by the team (pm me) to make sure they won't be breaking any rules, such as the theme or too much gore. I won't except 'lazy' art. By lazy, I do not mean an art style that can be finished quickly, because they can still be cute and have a nice vibe, I mean art where white patches are prominent, unintentionally spilling from the lines and lack of creativity in the designs (I don't expect every adopt to jump out of the screen but if you make 3 that are basically the same design it's straying into 'lack of care' in your work. Again, the other artists can help with tips or touching up lineart etc!
.Note. Please, try use a software were you can make transparent backgrounds as your art will be very difficult for other artists to colour/help with if you're away. Krista and firealpaca are completely free software you could use ^.^

Main Ideas


As we chat and collab this will expand of course ^.^
.Apocolyptic (Definite)
.Canine and feline (Most probably)
.smaller animals e.g rodents and birds as 'side' pets (Maybe)

Heya! So, personally I think a variety of species would be nice! However, I feel more confident drawing canines and felines.
What I was thinking was that we start with 'normal' dogs and cats but their offspring can be born with strange mutations like little bumps in their head, then their offspring could be born with horns and so forth :D
What species are people comfortable with drawing?

Heyo!
So personally, I'm more of a feline centred artist (my main focus is cats), but I'm down for mutations, light gore, and more vibrant pelts and such! Can also go for more realistically styled adopts as well. Not much of a writer, though, so I'll probably focus more on the art of things.
Some other mutations we could go with are things like two heads, wings, things like bone growth which forms like, sprouts of horns along the body, more so like spinal horns, shoulders, etc.
Ofc while keeping it up to LDs standards, and still appealing to public eye,

That totally works as there's more than one person we can cover the areas someone else may not enjoy so much :D personally I'm better at canines, but I'm open to learn most things if people would like to see them!

Do you have any lines/sketches or species that you'd like to see on the go?

heres an example of the style ill be using; more of a quick, clean doodling style^^ im pretty much down for drawing whatever, but not as good at reptiles, unfortunately. id love to see different kinds of mutations, and would think itd be fun to see more realistic designs casually hanging out with more radioactive ones! heres a chart of some mutations id think thatd be cool

I like the mutation ideas ^.^
I'll add a picture of what I was thinking of asap, sort of like branching out into new species as mutations develop!
What'd you all think would be a good overall name for the thread?

As for style, I'll stick 2 what I'm using for my own as seen here, with a mix of this to give it a sharper lineart, but softer colour. I can def practice w/ dogs but can't rlly promise very many canine pieces other than an occasional one
If you really wanna branch out into other species (rare occasion or not) I also do horses!<3 So, I can always do one for this (let it be like maybe a rare raffle, or pop up in the adopts) just lmk ahead of time and I can get 2 work!<3

(will update w name suggestions in a bit working on a request lmao)

Horses are cool too ^.^
I feel like felines, canine and equine would be the main requested and most practiced.
I'll get some design reference for you guys soon, I'm using premade base lines for the example so I can get it up sooner ^.^

I've found a DA artist who allows people to use their lines for free, so for the examples I'll use their lines as a base
(as requested here's their DA if anyone else would like to take a look :D https://www.deviantart.com/tuketi/art/Free-Lines-English-Bull-Terrier-290925888)

So, some name suggestions!
.Amargeddon is just the beginning (Kinda explains the theme)
.Apocolyptic Adopts (Short and to the point)
.A New Dawn (Sounds kinda theatrical XD)

hmmm, maybe have 'armageddon adopts' as a title and then have the header of the thread have 'a new dawn' with a short description of the setting/adopts/etc underneath?

Sounds great, thank you both! If everyone could colour at least one version of their species I can put them into a banner :D
Also, how does everyone feel about baby animals?
