She's the long-lost younger triplet sister of an angel keeto and a glade keeto, so I was trying to make her look related to both. She also has a fictional version of birthmarks or something like that. I know she ended up looking a lot more like the glade keeto than the angel keeto, but I kinda like the color anyway.

But does it look good? I can never tell after working on something for hours and only notice the mistakes months down the line long after I've submitted it for an official overlay. XD

I like the colors. Personally if going for vitiligo I would add some more blotches closer to paws and the thigh, but that is just based on the few family members I know who have vitiligo. It is less on their trunk and more on their extremities but that may not be how it presents on everyone. To me is seems more like a wine birthmark patterning on the tail.

Thanks for the insight! Now that you mention it, I realize I was thinking of her patches more like birthmarks. Or like a genetic variation that shows up sometime after birth, but which comes in all at once and doesn't change (I guess kinda like puppy to dog fur?). Possibly as a result of being underdeveloped in the womb. I could put something on her hind leg, but every time I try to it just looks too busy.

That's totally your call. My daughter was born with Mongolian spots and they have been fading over time. However my in laws who have vitiligo seem to have it like spread. I am not familiar with dermatology but since this is fictional you can totally do what you want. [Url=https://images.app.goo.gl/wq1JrkHCrtxBgZCV8]dapple puppy[/url]

Maybe dapple patterning?

Yeah, kinda like dappling! Or halfway between dappled and a calico pattern. It would basically be the opposite of Mongolian spots though. Her mother already rejects her because she wants twins, not triplets (twins have the opportunity for prestige; triplets don't), and I think it would be overkill to give her another reason to reject her as well.

I've actually been trying to change her head position by using the angel head on the glade body. I remembered that I chose the angel and glade specifically because they have kind of opposite poses, so I wanted her to have her own. What do you think?

I am not a fan of the angelic head but that is probably because to me it seems outdated. I do like the more splotchy look of the face though compared to the other. However this is again just my opinion. It is your pet.

I love the design! It's a perfect mixture of the angelic and glade keetos. As for the editing, the colors are really well done however the lines are a little thin and not straight/clear. I had to zoom into see why exactly I thought it looked blurry and I think it's the lines. Please bear in mind I am not a graphic designer so this is just a laywoman's opinion haha. Especially around the eye the outline isn't very defined and it's a bit eye-straining (for lack of a better word). I think if you cleaned up the lines it would be perfect!

Yeah, the lines are a result of me not copying and pasting it well.

Looking at this now almost a month later, I'm actually not a fan of the angelic head on the glade body. It looks like she has the "why are you taking my picture" grimace.

Thanks for your feedback! :)
