Hey I recognize that art style, though I can't remember the name of the girl who drew it ... she used to have a little mouse on her avatar *scratches head* I haven't seen her around the Nexus in forever. I miss her awesome style, but I wish i could remember her name!

Starburst · Post by **Starburst** » Tue Aug 08, 2006 7:38 pm

That'd be.. Katasev's?

I dunno what happened to her, but her dragons are gorgeous.

Post by **Dray** » Tue Aug 08, 2006 7:38 pm

Ummmmm. Hogod, I can't believe that I've forgotten. XD Started with an 'S', and she did Dunans for a while, too. :O I don't know what happened to her!

Shard · Post by **Shard** » Tue Aug 08, 2006 8:12 pm

Yes, it was Katasev's Fukeru Uukure (I've horribly misspelled that), but Ibli is from the exchange and isn't a fedra or dunan.

Well, technically it's 8am Sunday morning by my timezone. Midnight Saturday over in whatever the timezone on the west coast of the US is called. I'll close it when I get up on Sunday morning.

And I shall let you know, Unyko, what I'd like. *grins*

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 2:47 am

*impatient - picks males for the first three* Keep sending participants though! Males, females, anything. <3 I'll have the previews up for each of the three clutches very soon. X3 *salute!*

And Shio: Yay! ^.^

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 7:47 am

From what I can see of mine, I don't think I personally have any dragons (except for one or two butterfly-winged whorlings that are both female), however, I *know* I've sent some out.

Too bad I can't go searching and enter those I've drawn that belong to someone else ^.^

Shard · Post by **Shard** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 12:55 pm

Well there is little teeny Flutesong (female whorling)
http://geocities.com/otherforest_elves/ ... rtree2.htm

I have a weezle with dinky wing nubs, but I haven't put them up yet. :/ Myr you sent Dev a butterfly winged whorling for his b-day image.

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 1:16 pm

Well, if they don't have to be dragons...snakey random whorlings are kinda close ^.^

And well, it's still Dev's, it's not mine. Otherwise I'd be going through Phe's and DF's pages finding those whorlings. ^.^;;;;;;;

Shard · Post by **Shard** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 1:19 pm

lol technically I don't think Dev every actually *got* the image, just the bday gift for him....

lolz!

Post by **Dray** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 4:13 pm

Yeah, I don't think that he gets the dragon-adoption thing, or rather, he's not as in to it as we are. X3 You could probably use it.

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 4:33 pm

It's still not right. I'd have to put in on a page, and techically, for me to do that, I'd have to take it back.

Shard · Post by **Shard** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 5:58 pm

Well since it *is* (technically, with about 150+ others) hosted on MY site, can I give you permission lol!!

... and roffle! - can you imagine, what we'd do with that image, and all those dragons, if they bred while he was out?

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 6:51 pm

I'm still a bit wary about it...

Post by **Dray** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 9:39 pm

*thinks Myrror should make up another random batch of the same kind, and then just keep one for herself* X3

Myrror · Post by **Myrror** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 10:02 pm

I usually do that if I have a bunch of randoms, and not many people to give them to. ^.^;

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 4:40 pm

*hums innocently and uploads teasers of the first generation, a, b and c* X3

Gen 01a:

Gen 01b:

Gen 01c:

These guys will be available very shortly, but there are very few of them. ^.^; I need to contact the owners of the parents for their color choices, but then I'll open up to the general public. There are also smallish, colored previews on the clutches page (http://unykness.pegaruny.com/Lliyani/Sa ... clutch.htm) if you wanna check 'em out. ^.~

Cacopheny · Post by **Cacopheny** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 4:59 pm

How are you going to run these? First come, first serve? Random draw? Application?

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 5:31 pm

I hadn't actually decided yet. ^.^;; Probably random draw or application. I've missed out on many a first come first serve event, so I don't usually run anything that way. What do you think?

And that goes to anyone who reads this.. should I do a quick giveaway random draw, or effort-based (and biased) adoption?

JKatkina · Post by **JKatkina** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 5:33 pm

Well, I personally dislike draws 'cause I never, never win 'em, so I guess it'd be the second. :3

Post by **Dray** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 5:39 pm

Um... if it's application based, could you put the limit of applications you're going to take upfront, or if it's open-ended, could you just give 'em out based on how you like the stats/story/poetry/whatevertheheck you're going to take? I don't mind draws, but everybody here is big on... wanting equality of what they're getting, I guess. XD But still with competition...? I don't know. The good old fashioned way seems the most convenient to me.

DNS · Post by **DNS** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 5:42 pm

mah, mah~ I'll sit this one out, i think. no luck with draws, but for that one astra had recently and the escentas one, and it'll give other people a chance. whatsmore, no time and no skill to write a good application. ^^ next time around.

Cacopheny · Post by **Cacopheny** » Thu Aug 10, 2006 5:46 pm

Random draw-- but weighted, maybe? I'm not so big on application... I'm tired of intimidating people, not to mention then I won't have to write >.>

But to make sure a variety of people get one, like, you can't apply a second time until, say, all the "regulars" get one? Like, get applications from everyone who wants in, and then random-draw from that sample pool until you're out (however many generations that takes), and only then open applications again.

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 12:57 pm

I'm going to start sending out the offspring in a little bit, so what will happen is sort of a mix between a random draw and an application-type thing. ^.^; Since I got such mixed reviewes. I'll put up the available dragons shortly, and you can send in a form. Everyone will get a variable number 'tickets' for the ammount of effort put in. It's sorta raffle-like in that respect.

Basic form (name and email) will earn you one ticket.
Simple stats of someone to take in said dragon, and/or a paragraph-long setting where it will move into once it's yours will earn you two tickets.
More detailed stats and/or story will earn you three tickets.

So you figure, you have a chance of winning with just signing up for the draw, but the more you invest in this, the better your chances. Also, you -can- reuse already made characters, and sponsor or bonding is your choice. Genesis would have fiddled with these guys' genes enough that if bonding was necessary it no longer is. *salute*

So yeah, watch this spot. ^.^; *sets up for giveaway, and will likely open in an hour or so*

Unyko · Post by **Unyko** » Fri Aug 11, 2006 6:48 pm

Sorry, a little longer than an hour there. ^.^;;;

First of all, I'm gonna let you see the babies. X3 Because if you win, I wanna give you one you'll actually like. ^.^;;

http://unykness.pegaruny.com/Lliyani/Sa ... 01c/05.gif

And once you've looked 'em over, here's the form. Fill out whatever you want, but remember the way this draw will be run. Applications will close on the 15th, at which point dragons will be sent out, with stats. If there are less than 8 applicants by then, I may either keep the unclaimed, or give a couple people more than one. *salute*

Oh.. JKat, Kit and Shard: Could you guys give me at least genders for your dragons? Names/urls would be good too, but.. yeah. At least genders. <3 ^.^; *trying to fix up records!*

Kit: Thankee! ^.^ And yeah, seriously. @.@ The wings for 01c especially drove me to distraction. XD *had to draw and ink them in three seperate layers, not to mention the -coloring-!*

Caco: XD Eight applications, and you never know! Not that many people seemed interested in this thing. *shrug!* ^.~

You know, it ocurred to me.. the only sure way of getting a bebby from this thing is to own one of the parents. XD *lures participants*

I am interested, but I really don't have anything that fits, and I usually have bad luck at draws.

Still love Uny-art, though.
