Dragain's New Quest Thread | Working on references

[Dragain]

It started out as a quest thread, but I think its more of an idea-dump thread now! Nevertheless, if you're reading this and wish to cheer me on, this thread is open for you to post your well-wishers! If you wish to help me out with funding, I'll appreciate too. However, please do not feel pressurized to do it; part of the fun of questing is feeling satisfied when you finally reach that goal and get your funds!

I had been questing for a Soq since early '09 but never really got lucky. Anyway, for my own reference (and for yours if you are curious) here is my old quest thread.

Thank you for reading! <3

PS. I'll not list donators anymore because I really don't want others to bother you guys about doing them any favors... But please know that I do appreciate all the help! heart

OBTAINED! Thank you, Mind! ;o; <3

• The "chains" and the cloth over her back ("saddle"/tabard) are not attached together! The chains just go under the cloth so it looks that way.
  
• She does have leg feathering, but I'll leave how much up to you; just remember that she's supposed to look regal. <3
  
• Her hair is supposed to look like its made up of fine strands, but I'm content with it looking messy and neat at the same time, if it makes sense?

• Hair is simple, sleek and neat but not necessary straight, reaches shoulders.
  
• Tail is similar to hair in style, pools a little on the floor. Nothing too long.
  
• If you wish to balance out the brighter shades of orange used in the edits, feel free to add simple accessories to his legs; nothing 'premade' though... Not too fond of the items.
  
• The scarf on his rump can be around his neck; I leave it up to you as long as the color/gradient is similar!

.:Regular Soquili:.
Name of horse: Akiyo
Owner: Dragain
Gender: Male
Temper: Aloof
Breed: Spirited
Description:
Eye Color - Golden yellow
Base body color - Black (Please vary shades between hair, body and pelt!)
Facial Markings - Red markings like this but with the lower stripes filled in like this.
Body Markings - Similar to Hisoka’s but you have free reign!
Reference image(s):
Hisoka & Torao - Note the pelts & markings
Marking examples - 1 2 3(bottom picture)
Mock-up
Mock-up with colors but missing pelt; do not need to follow markings - Lines (c) Mindsend
Which stage you want them to start as?: Adult
Default accessory color(s)?: NA
Tag frame color: CC
Tag feather color: CC
Hair/clothing edits:
Hair - Jet black; relatively messy and long, tied up in a loose ponytail with a red tie. Length-wise, it will be like the default wild hair style.
Pelt on back - Wearing a wolf pelt (without limbs) draped over his shoulders, like Hisoka's. It should be black/dark grey in color and look rough rather than fluffy. A large wolf fang secures the pelt at the front.
Leg fluff - It should be rough and longer than the average soquili’s. A bit like a cross between Angeni and Cerynei leg fluff in the length and texture.

PS. I have Niss' permission to use Hisoka & Torao as references. <3

Cost: --
Current: Going to be paid for by Niss <3

.:Regular Soquili:.
Colorist wanted:
Name of horse: Vitiosus Ardin'solaris
Owner: Dragain
Gender: Male
Temper (one word for horse's personality): Corrupted
Breed: Reincarnated Sword
Description(eye color/hair color/hair style etc):
He is going to be based of an imaginary sword! If you want the references to make sense more, please read the short story here.
Build: Draft lines with the hoof down; it suits him more, being based off a claymore.
Facial expression: Blank/emotionless expression
Eyes: Glowing emerald green (there is an emerald drilled into the hilt of the sword on both sides)
Hair: Long and messy black hair, tinged with red to represent blood (the huge, long blade of the sword, forever tainted with Julios' blood).
Tail: Long and messy silver tail, tinged with red to represent blood (representing the uncorrupted side of the blade and demon's blood).
Hoofs: Black / Dark grey
Body: Mainly bronze-ish/brown-ish colored (hilt of the sword as its where all the decorations on a real sword go), with scar-like markings running across his whole body - legs, belly, back, neck, face. The scars are actually "scratches" from battle.
Glowing orange runes cover his two front legs while similar glowing red runes cover his two hind legs (the front and back of the hilt has different colored runes). Rune designs up to you.
If possible, I would like to have his body glow a faint deep red.
Accessories / other edits: A necklace made of skulls with a "sun" pendent; if possible, have it wound around his neck two or three times? I want it to appear long, but I don't want it to drag on the ground / be too loose. Its up to you how you wish to interpret it.
Also, a red tattered scarf/cloth wrapped around part of his neck, legs (near the hoofs) and maybe "woven" into his tail. Its up to you to play with the idea of a claymore bound with cloth.
