Description -Edit: Holy moose, I need to redo this soon. It's two years old, and definately needs to be updated. Markings haven't changed but.. this just looks like crap. 8D -



I've decided not to scrap this, because people said it was helpful.

Note: None of the colors shown on here should be used as a reference for color. These are just scribbles so I could try to make the markings a bit clearer. :3

I just uploaded this to specify a few of the markings on my fursona.
First off, the marking that twists around the tail: Notice that the marking depicts more of a thorn-like appearance. They're not stitches in any way, so yes, they should look more like the greenish example. Not the red. (True marking color on fursona should be black.)

Secondly, the light blue coloring on the ears merely lines them. In no way should the color seep into the middle part of the ear. Take a peak at [link] and [link] . See how it just lines the ears? That's the right way to do it. :3 And I hope you don't mind me using you as an example, Vanneh. xD

Lastly, the color of the stripes on her forelegs should be lighter than her main pelt color. They are silver-ish grey, hence are a lighter color than the dark grey of her pelt.

Also, if you've ever done any gift art for me where anything on on it clashed with something shown here, don't you dare worry about it. Because I adored every single piece of art I've been given. And I love you guys for it. ^_^ So yeah, this is just for future references. x3


[Edit] Reuploaded it with a bit more information.
I attempted to show how the paws are black, and hope I accomplished it. The black starts out at the front, then does a sort of dip, then ends at the back of the limb, a place a tad higher than where it began. The curves that are labeled "Front" and "Back view" are showing this. The paw with the green outline is there simply to show you how the curve looks when placed on a paw. Same for the other two drawings.


Again, don't use any part of this for a coloring reference of any sort. Granted, the stripes should be lighter than the main grey color, but neither of those hues are depicted correctly here. This is just specifying what things should look like. :3

*coughs* I think... I did the tail markings wrong. XD I think I did them in the 'stitch' pattern... but THAT WAS ONLY BECAUSE I WAS LAZY!

I promise. ;_;

I'll make it up to you somehow. x3

Bah, I noticed a mistake I did xDD
I shall now remember that the stripes on your forearms are 'lighter' grey. I did them a little bitter darker than the primary coat. -takes mental notes-
This deviation really helped a lot xD
