Hiya. I'm on the fence about my RL recreation project. My target has both pearl base and mane. As a Pearl breeder I know how difficult it is to breed medium bases let alone with all 10 marks and target breed only mane.

My original goal was to create a 15/15 replica to later king. Most of the marks are fairly spread aside for a few. Only slot 5 is either nearly extinct or was originally introduced by the raffle lioness I'm trying to recreate. Besides slot 5, only thing really unique about the appearance is the marking combo. I had to start by getting each individual mark. I recently acquired a groupie lioness with Slot 5 Feline 8 Dark Brown who is the only one besides the RL with it. I'm just on the fence now about making a 15/15. I'm already spending a lot on breeding requests just for the marks. After 2 months of trying I'm finally getting 2/10 mark cubs which feels great.

What's the best route to get a 15/15 with a target BO mane and base?

This is my project cave. It has all the info about the raffle lioness as well as my progress.
- My S5 girl is on my side. I roll it once a week so she'll age slower there. Currently saving up for a buffy and gnawrock since she's almost middle aged.

Honestly after much,much, thinking I'm half tempted to scratch the base and mane and just make a modified version with just the marks. Not completing the recreation means that the lioness will be one of a kind still. Kinda like the idea of that actually. Makes her more special in a sense. Especially since I plan on kinging the final cub. I don't know.

What do you experienced RL folks think?
