Hello everybody! So after the success of my lotus mockup, I decided to try something else!

So I introduce, a base modeled after the common grackle!

What is the common grackle?
The common grackle (Quiscalus quiscula) is a large icterid which is found in large numbers through much of North America. Wiki

Here is an image of a common grackle, and what I used for picking colors

Wait, but Lioden is set in africa, that's not realistic!
Neither are the cherry blossom, interstellar,demonic, or quasar bases, but you don't see people yelling about those.


Without further ado, lets get to the mock ups!

As always I will take suggestions on how to improve it, but please use constructive criticism only. "It looks stupid" does not help anyone.

This base would be Black dark solid rare/special
I believe this would be great as either a combo base, or a raffle base.
The combos I have in mind are
Obsidian x (?)
Labradorite x (?) SUGGESTED BY: Misty the Bloodluster
Labradorite x obsidian
Labradorite x Madagascar
Labradorite x Nuumite
Labradorite x Penumbra
Labradorite x Ebony
Obsidian x glacial

If you don’t support please say why!



This suggestion has 367 supports and 33 NO supports.

@telly so would you say you’d want it to be more pastel or brighter?

The front half needs to be a bit lighter/brighter

just lighten up the back half, I cant distinguish the back leg from each other with a full line it just looks like theyre lumped together, just brighten the thing a tad

Almost there, the bird in the pic has a slightly reddish-beige shoulder

much better! I just couldn't distinguish the back parts and that means the color is wayyy too dark, I love the newer versions though

Mock-ups in the original have been edited! Going to try to do a male lion now but we'll see
