Description Hands and paws off, please.


So, here's the batch of adoptables I said I was going to upload. They are the result of my newly created custom horse breed, the Neonar.

Breed sheet available here.



PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ EVERYTHING WRITTEN HERE. If you start asking me questions that are already answered in the text below, your comment will be ignored. Help keep me a sane person, ok?


As the creator of the breed, I'd like to be able to keep an eye on how it develops on dA. Because of this I will be setting up a journal with a breed registry, where you can apply to register your creation. If your Neonar is unregistered (and I haven't gotten a chance to see it), or if it gets rejected by me for some reason, it will *not* be considered a "real Neonar". It will merely be a copy. I do not mean to sound harsh, but this is the way I see it. Please respect my wishes.
Once the registry is up and running, you will be free to create your own Neonar, if you find the breed interesting.


Anyway, let's get to the important part here, shall we?




General info regarding the adoptables

The six individuals featured as adoptables are part of the "Original Seven" (these six + my mare Ca'Lixxa ), and were the first examples of the breed discovered within a limited time and area. The "Original Seven" are foundation Neonars, and will found the lineage of any future "true Neonars" (check the breed sheet if confused over true Neonars).

Other individuals of the breed have also been found after the discovery of the "Seven". Constant research is being done, regarding the origins of this breed, and the reason as to why these colorful horses keeps popping up, almost out of nowhere around the world.


ADOPTION GUIDELINES

One adoptable per person. If you have several favs you may still apply for all of them, but you can only get one in the end.

Let me know the number and/or name of any design(s) you'd like to adopt. It doesn't matter if others have an interest in the same one.

Draw the character. You may draw the other side of the horse as you imagine it, as long as it "fits" their original design.

NO USE OF FREE LINEARTS!!!

Try putting some effort into your design. When I see your finished piece, I will have a look at the rest of your gallery, to get a feel of your art style.

You may change gender and body build.

Think of name, personality and a short background story. No need for anything complex. I prefer not having to read a novel.

You have until March 20th to complete your picture, and post a link to it in a comment here (not on my front page. I will ignore that comment - and your design - if you do).

By March 21st I will decide on who gets the adoptables. You do not have to be a proffessional artist in any way. I will look at the character as a whole, not just the design. I want the entire character to fit my own vision of a Neonar.

I would appreciate if you'd give me credit for the breed concept and original design.

Sorry if I'm sounding a bit overprotective... Anyway, I think that's all for now. Oh yeah... Have fun!



----------------------------------
I added the list below to keep track of your designs when it comes to judging day. It is by no means "first come first serve", or about finishing your drawing the fastest. Everyone has a chance here, ok?

Ooh, so tempting! These are amazing looking horses.
Do have any special technique you do for the markings? I'd love to be able to do that, they're so unique.

SheWolff In reply to CopperdragonArt [2009-03-06 08:17:01 +0000 UTC]

No, no special technique really. More or less just letting my hand draw whatever comes up. ^^ For these adoptables I mainly added a "blob" of color somewhere, and erased parts of it until satisfied. Kinda like sculpting.
You're welcome to try for one (or several).

Dark-Memory In reply to ??? [2009-03-05 22:56:29 +0000 UTC]

I will try for 1, 4 & 5. I usually dont try for more than one but the designs are very awesome and I like to support new breeds since I have created a new species that has yet to gain attention. I am in Austria right now but as soon as I'm back I will be drawing up a storm. Bio, etc will be in artists comments for the images.

SheWolff In reply to Dark-Memory [2009-03-06 00:07:47 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I had a look at your species and I think I've seen it around dA earlier. I think it'll catch on with time.

Looking forward to seeing your versions of them. ^^

Dark-Memory In reply to SheWolff [2009-03-06 00:33:39 +0000 UTC]

Im not too worried about it right now. I dont want to force ppl or make em feel guilty so they make one. I had adoptables and only one adopted so the rest 'didn't make it'.

I had a Worsevelen club contact me and say I was just borrowing a common idea. It ticked me off. And I pointed them at my journal and said. Read and learn.

Thank you. I'm working on the bios for the two right now. When I'm back in the states I'll draw them.

It's never fun to have people pointing things out, at least not if they've jumped to a conclusion without the research.

# 1 and #4 - particularly # 4, are what I would love to shoot for. I don't draw horses often, but I need the practice. This will be a fun way to do that. Is it alright?

The colors on #5 make me think he's a CMYK Neonar.

I'm going to try for 1, 4, or 6. Haven't decided yet.
They all look really great, and good luck to everyone that enters!

SheWolff In reply to SaraChristensen [2009-03-05 23:58:50 +0000 UTC]

I think people would wonder too much what 'CMYK' stands for, though.

Can't wait to see who you'll choose.

SaraChristensen In reply to SheWolff [2009-03-08 03:26:33 +0000 UTC]

This is true. Acronyms are deceiving like that.

I think I'm going to try for #4.
The lineart for her is 80% finished, so I should have my
official adoption application in to you within the next few days. Yay!

As I said to you in a previous comment, the Neonars are definately going to be known as the Wild Horses 3 and 6 are testiment to this wonderful colouring idea you have. I am really really interested to see how you build a story for these guys Keep it coming! (and bring on the Adoption Journal )

I'm drawn to the designs with a more harmonious colour scheme, 1, 2 and 4 in particular Absolutely loving the progress on these guys!

"The Wild Horses of dA" LOL Sounds kinda...wild.

I'm very happy you like how they're coming along. Maybe some Neonar secrets will unfold along the way, who knows. ^^ Yes yes, I'll hopefully have time to post the registry journal tomorrow. Shouldn't be too much work. ^^

*glee*
It's meant as a compliment of course, sounds kinda cheesy when I read it back :S
I do I do! Secrets would be wonderful, I'm working on one in Photoshop at the moment, had a horse sketch drawn up for a few months that I've done nothing with, this seemed to be the perfect opportunity to bring it out and work on it again ^^ I'm interested to know in what setting the Neonar exist, is it your own realm or much like the other Created Breeds, existing in the "real world" with humans turning a blind eye? xD

:< Hope I didn't sound demanding there :/ I mean to encourage!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SheWolff In reply to OpalSkye [2009-03-06 08:56:22 +0000 UTC]

No worries, I took it as one.

Excited to see your work. ^^
I ment for the Neonar to exist in the real world, yes. But noone seem to know where they came from, and since some have magical powers (silver/gold marked and those with strangely colored eyes - pale pupils), maybe some of them plane-shifted here or something? Who knows?

No, no worries. I got the encouraging, and not the demanding vibe from you, definitely!
