Oh wow, I'm alive! And after many many months, I have another batch of Aequis designs for sale! These are the very first run of the "base tier" designs I will be offering. They do use bases (modified so each will be different) and feature more simplistic designs and color schemes. Base tier designs will not feature rare traits, but are lovely in their own right: or at least I think so! These also represent the very cheapest designs I will offer: They do not have a full reference sheet included, though they do include either a simplified dorsal or ventral diagram for color/pattern clarification (not shown here), as well as an eye detail (included here). These simple "ref sheets" are smaller than the higher tier designs, but they can be shipped to you if you wish! Each design is drawn using Copic multiliners and colored pencils on smooth bristol paper.

Without further ado, here they are!

1. Arctic: Cinnamon. 14 hh at withers, 27 ft wingspan. Large, with feathered feet and broad wings and tail, Arctic types are heavily feathered with a large mane/ruff of feathers about their necks. Price: $40 USD. Claimed!

2. Mountain: Steel. 14 hh at withers, 28 ft wingspan. Huge and powerfully built, mountain types have particularly deep keels and strong legs. They have a long straight single crest along the back of their necks. Price: $40 USD. Claimed!

3. Southern Island: Sunny Gold. 13 hh at withers, 25 ft wingspan. Light and sleekly built, with tapering wings and a deeply forked tail ending in flags. They have a very long single crest along their neck. Price: $45 USD. Claimed!

4. Northern/Temperate Island: Ash and Embers. 13 hh at withers, 25 ft wingspan. Built for speed, while being a little more rugged than its southern kin, with long pointed wings and a rounded tail featuring two long central feathers. Their crest is shorter and stiffer than the southern. Price: $40 USD. Claimed!

5. Tropical Arboreal: Turquoise Orange, male. 10 hh at withers, 18 ft wingspan. Small, yet swift and nimble, the tropical is at home weaving through trees with his short rounded wings and long wedge shaped tail. This design is drawn as male: The tail coverts are extended and he has rounded head plumes just above his ears. Has long sleek hackle feathers instead of the traditional Aequis crest. Price: $50 USD. Claimed!

6. Temperate Arboreal (northern): Smoky Redstart. 11 hh at withers, 20 ft wingspan. Larger than tropical kin, more heavily built, with moderate length rounded wings and a long broad tail with slight wedge shape. Has a long shaggy ruff about throat with expressive crest, longest feathers at back of head. Price: $45 USD. Claimed!

7. Grassland: Rust and Steel. 11 hh at withers, 21 ft wingspan. Built to be at home on both ground and sky, this Aequis has longer legs with compact toes well suited to running. Wings are of moderate length, tail is short. In addition to having a beard of bristly feathers under the jaw, (both sexes) this type features an expressive crest running in two rows along the back of the neck. Price: $45 USD. Claimed!

8. Desert: Bronze Sands. 13.2 hh at withers, 27 ft wingspan. A capable flier and sprinter, the desert type has wide toes to stay atop shifting sands. They also have loose feathering and areas of exposed skin, which is dark in color. Crest is extremely expressive and composed of long loose drooping feathers, and is complimented with long plumes growing off they "eyebrows." Price: $45 USD. Claimed!

Any other questions? Feel free to ask!
