Description
A freshy hatched Jolle exploring his surroundings for the first time sees a dazzling meteor shower! Prompt entry for the Jolle MYO Event!The Event
.:OPEN:. JR MYO Contest,With the Great Jibinu Migration coming soon, the big hatching was coming which meant plenty of new Jolles would be bounding to come greet the mers this year! Two jolles are sat here waiting for you - one that keeps changing between a fully coloured coat, to one of sketchy anatomical markings and the other carrying a pencil in its maw and holding an eraser."Hello, you're here for the big hatching I guess? I'm Eraser and my colour shifting buddy accompanying me here is Sketch." Eraser begins, eyeing you up curiously, "See all these cookie eggs have landed here on our homeworld and are of course needing to be hatched, but there was a note left here saying that those who willed their finished colours to flourish would treasure them forever - so it has something to do with you guys."This MYO contest will end Sunday 23th April 23:59 CEST- There will be no extensions.You will be able to complete prompts or purchase the MYO during the event, but the final deadline to complete these prompts/purchases is Sunday 30th April 23:59 CEST.

WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED 24TH APRIL!For those that do not win, you will have two options in order to make your JR official. When the contest ends and the winners are announced a new comment will be made where you can either:- purchase them with: 2000 points / $20 / 250 JR coins (in group currency)OR- Complete the following prompt: It must be fullbody + coloured with at least a basic environmental background. Shading is NOT required! You can also claim these images for coinwork once your Jolle is on the masterlist by submitting them to the coin folder!Your cookie egg has hatched and the little jolle has freed itself and born into the world. Draw your jolle either: preening itself of its natural coat coloured fluff advancing to adulthood OR your jolle exploring the new colourful world around it!* Natural coloured coat is a coat you’d see on most earth animals, so light browns, whites, greys, blacks. Jolles when they are first hatched appear this way without their traits developed first as well as being super fluffy (as stated on their lore). So when you draw the prompt, you would have to draw your JR with a natural coat of colours, very fluffy, preening itself of the thick fur to make the change into an adult JR (traits will be able to be seen by this stage and you can show patches of fur already preened to show the undercoat)You CAN complete these options before the contest ends to allow you more time! Comment for the prompt / purchases here once your JR is complete: https://www.deviantart.com/comments/1/957164832/5051222121 ------------------------------Have a question?

Well you came to the right place! Sketch, I need you to model for me!"------------------------------Eyes,- Eye Traits can't be mixed, its either pond, or slit - not both. Some Jolles have Heterochromia and this doesn't add to their rarity!- Jolle eyes can't have allseeing blessed eyes (white) or cursed eyes (grey-black) Click this link for correct eye picking - Stick to light colours or dark colours that don't encroach these zones- Form does not have pond behind it, form can only have one shape as well, not multiple.- Multicolour is an epic eye trait, they can only be 2 colours of the same hue!------------------------------Headshapes,Jolles have a variety of headshapes and these can be mixed and matched - as long as they don't have snouts and follow the same anatomies, it makes for really unique and expressive jolles!------------------------------What is Optional and what isn't,- All Jolleraptors have arm dividers, these protect the jolle from the bones on the inside coming out! These are NOT optional!- Some JR's have leg dividers and some don't, its a connection to their species ancestors from old times past. These are optional!- Jolleraptors do not have pawpads, some are seen with markings of them, but they never have true pawpads!------------------------------The Essentials,- All JR's have rounded eyes (They can have eyelashes), a jagged mouth, two nostils (one either side) and back head fluff, but they do NOT have hair whatsoever.- JR's have small rounded tongues- Jolleraptors have Y shaped bird feet, two toes at the front and one at the back, that are ALWAYS very dark grey - black - not coloured. The toes pads CAN be coloured like the claws! These can be thick or even stick-like. ------------------------------Anatomical Stances,- JR's CANNOT stand up like a human nor have five digits, their spine and legs do not allow them a full standing position. - They can sit upright like a meerkat, and stand upright using the aid of objects. They are also known to rear and hop for short periods of time (a few seconds at most)- Remember they are only a feral species!
