no idea if this is in the right section ahhhh

*just adding the LF Digital Artist to title* N-Now I'm even more unsure if this is in the right section

So it's 2:30 AM when I get an idea for a new species. What do I do? Immediately sit up and sketch it, of course. Afterwards, I feel rather pleased with my creation and wonder, "Would other people like this?" What do I do next? Make this thread, of course.

Ehehe, so yeah. These are the two little sketchies I came up with!


They don't have a name yet :c I do have a few ideas for their behaviors and such, however!

- They're a pack mammal with no alpha pair. The females have less fluff and do most of the hunting/foraging while the males stay at the dens and care for the pups.
- They're omnivores. They eat berries, insects, and the occasional small rodent.
- Guards stand up on their back legs to "watch" over the pack and use their tail for extra balance.
- They communicate with clicks. They have enhanced hearing and smell due to their lack of eyes.*
*As they somewhat resemble bats, I was considering giving them echolocation rather than enhanced hearing and smell....Or a combination of both! Let me know what you think!

Please fill out the following form to let me know what you think!

1) Any changes you would make? (Tell me here what you think of the whole echolocation vs enhanced senses!)
2) Would you buy one and how much would you pay?
3) If you're a digital artist, would you consider doing the lineart of these little guys if I do end up making them an adoptable/closed/whateverwordiscorrecthere species? (You would get a share of the profits, of course!)

Artists who'd like to do the lineart of this species are free to draw them as examples! I just ask that if you do draw them, do not sell the art you do of them c: It's not a requirement that you post a drawing of them in your style, however! If you'd rather show me various art that you've done in the past, that's quite alright, too!<3

THE NAME HAS BEEN CHOSEN!
*hallelujah plays softly in the background*
The name for this new species is...Amicaeus! It was suggested by Emmon (#37702)! It is a mix of the Latin words for "blind" and "friend," which I just absolutely love~<3

Casual, I'm afraid with the new rule you can't commission someone to make the lines for you D; You'll have to make it yourself.
Check Clay's last post here + Rule #10

What? D: I asked the helper hub and explained my whole idea, and they told me that it sounded like the only rules I would have to worry about were #3 and #4.

I'd try asking Clay/Xylax/A mod directly for clarification. I'd try not to fret over it, as I could also be wrong? But that post seems misleading otherwise u.u

I asked about this for my adopts (which I had bought the line art a while ago), and I was told I wasn't allowed to sell here, I'd have to make from scratch. :c So, yes you'd have to make it your own!

I'll ask about it :c

Ah, man D: I'm so confused. I mean, I asked in the helper hub, and they just told me that I'd be most interested in the rules that talk about crediting the artist. They didn't even mention #10 or Clay's post.

I'm almost positive I've seen people commish lines for adopts and such around here. Especially if you're sharing pay with the artist for each one you sell, you should be fine Pes'.
I'm still up for lining for you! c: Sounds like a super fun project, I love adoptables

@CasualPessimist

If the whole "make your own lineart" thing is a problem, I may have a solution.

I already have an adoptables thread up, so if I was to draw the lineart for you, I could sell them there, crediting you for the idea, of course, and send you your part of the monies :)
