Leaving the closed species business

Posted 2 years, 5 months ago by midokuns

Hi,

I know I already left DA and went on an art hiatus some time ago. However lately it has become clear to me how scummy a lot of the practices in this community are and how willing people are to accept them. I don't feel comfortable selling designs anymore, as it makes me feel scummy in a way as well. I do not want my intellectual property to be associated with something so anti-consumer in nature in my eyes.
I can't say if I'll never offer Devas again, as I do like my species despite what CS adoptables entail. I will offer commissions and the like again, one day. However I'm taking a step back from the whole CS community and business.

MYO slots are and will stay valid. I know many have not made use of theirs yet, that's okay. I have them noted on a masterlist, and I will keep it updated regardless of my hiatus. 

That's all I have to say on the matter for now. Thank you for your continued support.

BID HERE

The people have spoken. This was meant to be more of an unpolished drawing, but I ended up lining and coloring carefully after all... the perfectionist in me is too strong, help!! I've been into fantasy anime for a while now but after trying to watch Goblin Slayer (It's sadly not as good as I hope it would be y_y) I was inspired to do fantasy class styled designs. Selenite is said to be the crystal with the most healing properties, so I found this fitting, though I wonder if I make too many blue-ish devas... sweats. Selentie is more white than blue, but that would have been too much white for my liking...!



Selenite
SB: $17
MB: $1

Please make sure you set me (midokuns @ TH) as the creator and in case of MYOs yourself as designer as well, and make sure I can actually access the designs! A lot of people didn't register me as creator yet or linked my deviantart, so I can't actually find them and often theyre invisible to me. ): This is in my TOS so I don't want to be a butt and run after everyone. Thank you for understanding! 

New CS: Devas

Posted 6 years, 3 months ago by midokuns

Devas


Devas (from buddhist Deva, the realm and its deitiesare a Closed Species.
Their designs are based on gems and minerals as well as gold.


    Personality

Deva are a peaceful species who are considered very beautiful due to their shining and palatial bodies. They avoid fighting and conflict, however are often being stolen away, kidnapped or made profit of. Despite knowing how attractive they are to other living beings, they do not pride themselves with it. Deva are generally a modest people, but know to use their qualities to get around. Living around other species, they are often occupied as models, living decoration or used as salespeople where appearance can give a big advantage.

Traits

Devas have several traits which seem to be equally common among all of them, but there yet seem to be undiscovered traits!


Gems

Deva can be made any kind of mineral. These reflect in their hair and eyes, which are always the same color. They usually very colorful and every part showing their gem shines brightly in light. A Deva can not be made of two kinds of minerals naturally.


Horns

A Deva's horns can have various shapes and always have veins of gold runing through them. Their horns are a popular spot to adorn with accessories,  yet some like to not draw any further attention to them as their horns are a sought after prize. Some people go great lengths to break them off and steal them, and its not unheard of that a careless Deva has lost a piece of their horn or in its entirety on accident. Their horns cannot grow back.


Spine

The "spine" reflects their gem or mineral as well and is part of their tails, however, it is unknown if Deva's actually have bones. (more info TBA)


Tails

The ones living on land seem to all sport bony looking tails that are an extension of their spine-like adornment. Also another popular spot for accessories.

Body-structure 

Devas do not have bones and will break and shatter into pieces instead. It is very hard to break them without using a harder material than themselves if not impossible, so a Deva's only enemy is their own species or those who utilize their horns or bodyparts as tools. Devas can break themselves if they are not careful and, for example, fall, the velocity causing an impact hard enough for them to crack or shatter. Luckily, they can reattach their lost pieces.

Mascot

To your left we have Beau, the Deva mascot! He has, like every Deva, horns and a tail with spine-like gem ornaments that extend along his back up to his nape. Also, like all Devas, Beau is made of a mineral, in this case, Gold Sheen Obsidian!



All traits are subject to change, more traits may be added!
Devas are a closed species, do not make your own!

New CS planned

Posted 6 years, 4 months ago by midokuns

Hi! A few days ago I had the urge to create a gem based species because I love HNK and it inspired me to do more with gems ^_^ I wanted to incorporate other things I like like gold elements and cute kids

here's a first prototype!  Their hair and eye color is based on their gem of course, but they also have their "spines" (they do not actually have bones) protruding slightly as adorment and is their most delicate spot. Since tails are part of the spine, I gave them tails that are reminiscent of spines and that showcase their gem as well! They come with various horn and tail shapes, at least that's whats planned. The outfit is very much inspired by HNK's uniforms lol... but not every specimen will wear the same! This example is a Blue Turmaline, but it won't be for sale

also if you see similarities to yukibuns' latest off species adopt, I know, pls don't point it out further
