Howdy! I’m a goldfish and koi enthusiast IRL and I’d love to get back into doing art of these awesome carps! Mind if I make some pieces of your lovely koi and Goldies?

Hello, I am a budding GSD kennel and I am curious on how showing and breedings work. I would love to pair my best showgirl someday.
I have always aspired to be a DARP breeder/kennel, so If you have any helpful tips, I thank you deeply.

I often show on deviantart and discord. If you haven't already, join the devinatart DARPG groups like pedigree club and Canadian Kennel Club. Shows usually require one to draw a picture (either a simple headshot or a high effort fullbody image depending on the show).
Breedings usually start by finding a suitable mate. Many people choose to health test their dogs and only breed dogs that have good health scores and don't both carry the same defects. Then, you draw a breeding image and/or a pregnancy image (often at the vet for a check up). Then, you can draw a whelping image or the newborn pups with mom or the older pups. The number and types of images depending on how much effort you want to put into realism.

I have a questio, are we able to request pairings?
2 years, 6 months ago
I would take pairing requests but would like a fee (art or points) for creating the offspring. Or do you mean pairing one of my animals with yours or two of my animals together?

Hey, what's all this breeding business about? I've seen it before on DA but I'm just kinda confused. If it means breeding two characters together to make new OCs, I'm definitely interested in what's going on here. I've always loved virtual pet sites for the breeding aspect but never really got into the actual taking care of them, so this seems pretty cool. Any help/resources would be greatly appreciated! ^^

Hi! Basically, I love designing natural characters and drawing them doing stuff so I was drawn to ARPG (art role play game). I like to "show" (draw them entering a show hosted by someone else), do pictures of their offspring, and other stuff like that. I have moved most of my characters and litters to my toyhouse, but most of the shows and litters take place on deviantart. I'm most active with dogs, livestock (farm animals), and fish. Horses and fantasy species like Tokotas are quite popular on deviantart as well. A few of the most active dog ARPG groups on deviantart are the-kennel-club, pedigree-club, and world-canine-union. TheRanchRegistry is another group but for farm animals. If you have any specific interests I can certainly direct you towards some more resources. :)
