![]() ![]() Reference Image: I don't know how the colours will look on everyone else monitors but they're supposed to mimic the colours of the Aussie outback, red-browns and golden-brown markings. Having migrated from the Australian desert he's probably going to look quite different from the Zuets born in forested areas. I may rework the design later when I have my tablet working again. It's hard using MS Paint with a mouse! Name: Euca (pronounced you-kah short for Eucalyptus) Weight: 88lbs Age: 23 Gender: Male Personality: He's a pretty relaxed guy around other ZH's and has respect for the other large predators that inhabit Redwood Ravine but can be cocky and a bit of a racist toward any non-Zuets but in the name of peace he tries to remain as diplomatic as a Zuet can be. He wants to make babies! >:3 History & Origin: The warren was small, located in the outback of Australia. Euca's birth was the result of a union between his mother and a wild dingo but because she was desperate to expand their numbers and the alternative was to turn to inbreeding she decided it was worth a try. Euca grew up normally, learning all the things a young Zuet does in his warren. When he grew into his teenage years he began to feel suffocated, he wanted to expand his warren but there was no breeding options within it and he knew the chances of a another birth like his were slim and going to need a lot of mating. As fun as that was he preferred the idea of all of his young being Zuets and decided to embark on a journey to Australia's east coast. When he left his warren he had been nineteen and did not reach a "port" until a few months after he turned twenty. Though the human race had diminished significantly some of them were still able to cobble together some rickety looking steamships which they used to travel. In his human guise, wrapped in makeshift clothing to hide his odd appearance, he stowed away on one of these ships bound for a distant land, one which he hoped had some Zuets. It was yet another year and a half before the human ship finally pulled up on a beach for the last time and was abandoned quickly by all those aboard it. Euca waited patiently for them all to be out of site before gratefully slipping back into his Zuet form and heading for cover, hungry humans and a hare lookalike did not mix well in his opinion. Again he traveled for a long time, constantly on the lookout for any signs that a warren of his own kind might be near. One day he came upon a forest of redwoods, though he didn't know that that was their name, and he was impressed by their size, there were dingos here too, well they looked like dingos but fluffier and came in a larger variety of colours. As he stealthily moved around the area, spying, he found something of great interest, a warren but something was different and made him wait near by. Patiently he sat watching the entrance until something pushed it's way out, something that looked like him. RP Sample: Euca's footsteps were light as he silently slipped through the giant trees, he'd never seen such enormous things before, of course he'd seen nothing but the unforgiving endless ocean for gods knew how long before he was able to step on dry land again. Zuets were not made to sail, that much was certain. His blue eyes glinted in the shadows as he came upon something rather odd, it was a dingo of sorts but it's fur was long and it had many different colours on it's pelt but none were the familiar orange brown he recognized from his home across the sea. Hesitantly he stepped from the shadows that hid him, he was certain the fluffy dingo would have scented him soon enough anyway. "What the hell are you?" He asked immediately, not wasting any time on polite introductions. EDIT: Wanted to add a reference for the colour pallet I was going for to help you guys help me. If what I have at the moment isn't working properly I'm open to suggestions but I want to try and keep the pallet as outback as I can. :3 Edited by Whey, Feb 5 2011, 06:27 AM.

Whats working: oh just everything. he's very studly. Corrections needed: Its not so much a correction as a suggestion-- If it were me, I'd make the main color slightly darker/slightly browner, and more pretty stripies. Cause I could just see him slinking thorugh the outback like that. Overall Impression: hot stuff, i love it. ![]() Vote: yesss. I totally forgot my mom's Driod was too hard to post this with and gave up. I POST IT NOW ON MAI CUMPOOTER. |

LOL, okay I will do that! I will tinker with the stripes when my tablet is working, I don't like them either, I might look up some markings for Australian animals and mimic one of them (within the marking guidelines) |

Whats working: I think it works very well over all. I'm really excited you came back to Redwood Ravine and I'm happy to see that you're apply to play a Zuet Hekog! Corrections needed: This is probably a matter of opinion, but although you are mimicking colors from photos of the Aussie, I just wanted to say that those photos are highly saturated, they aren't natural. Maybe in a certain light they may appear as those colors, but those photos are definitely saturated and the land-scape of the Aussie are not normally, naturally those particular set of colors. I'd prefer to see something a bit more realistic in color spec. The colors you have in the ref are extremely vibrant and when thinking Aussie I'd prefer dark sandy colors, variations of browns and less reds and oranges. Maybe even the green from the local plant life, etc. Just putting some feedback out there in case you see anything you'd like to consider. Overall Impression: I do very much like it. Vote: Pending -until further notice (but overall, yes) |
