Hi hi!
Some people and I were talking about how there are just simply not enough purple bases in Lioden, and absolutely not enough darker purple bases. So, like a rational person, I decided to get my laptop out at midnight on a Saturday morning instead of going back to sleep and whipped this up real quick! Personally I'm not the biggest fan of super saturated purples, but I really like me a good medium-dark desaturated purple, so I worked with that!

Introducing: Iris
(name pending)

(honestly it could be red dark solid special, too, but black was what I was thinking at the time)
Lineless!

A couple alternate versions!



With some markings:

Dove eyes
Briar Margay (42%)
Cherry Glaze (24%)
Vitiligo 5 (100%)
Cherry Undershine (54%)
White Gentle Unders (62%)
Feline 4 Orchid (27%)

And with mosaic! (because I do not have a mosaic bias no sir)


I don't know what kind of base this could be. Maybe an April applicator base? Since it would fit the whole flower theme and all :D
Could be called Scent of Iris if that's the case?


(as Mad Hyena pointed out, this could work as a raffle base too because of Orchid and Lilac! Keeping in line with the whole flower theme and all haha)
(Since there’s only like. one special breed only base in black dark solid (Haze, apparently?? I thought that was light countershaded lmfao), this could work quite well as a raffle base!)

If this base were to have its own markings, I would suggest the shapes of Margay, Feline 3, Roan, and Siamese
(note: these used to have accompanying images, but due to discord breaking on me, i don't have the energy nor the will to upload all of them onto imgur, so imagine the iris base in the shape of these markings lmao)

Want a lighter version? Check out my other purple base suggestion, Allium!

Thanks for reading!
If you have anything you'd like to see in this base, please tell me :D
And if you don't support, feel free to tell me why so I can see what I can do!
