What is your least favorite base/markings?

What is your least favorite base/markings?
Posted 2020-11-04 16:47:42

So I had been going to do a project for lavender wolves, but then I started to talk to a friend group of mind about what bases they like and don't like. Everyone seems to dislike Khaki which is a shame as I rather enjoy the color. That got me thinking about possible working on an "Ugly Sweater" Project for wolves here. So my question to all of you all here is what base and/or markings do you hate the most? For me it is Calcite, and Diorite. Mostly Diorite.

Not a fan of glaucous or red & I really don't love merle (though it's nice in some cases!)

I don't really mind the Glaucous. Though I do feel like it could be better. The reds. Well they are ok. I rather like auburn and rust, but there really are just so many and some of them are rather bright.

I'm not a huge fan of Honeydew (it's just...too green?) or Red as bases, although I don't necessarily mind either if there's a good amount / distribution of markings to break them up. 

For markings, I also don't really like Merle.  I'm kind of surprised it seems to be so popular / sought after; I feel like when it's at high opacities it makes the wolves look too much like dogs which isn't really to my taste.

The more I look at the merle the more I get that. I think I would like the marking more if it was inverted. As for the honeydew idk. I think it just that I like green. I like basically all the green bases. Mostly I forget which one but I think there is a green with a tint of red in in but forgot the name of it.

"Gold Darker" looks like the wolves found a tub of cheetos in the wilderness

I dislike grizzle, merle, and most of the green bases. Green is my favorite color in general but I just think the other bases look better with the available markings/colors. 

I can still use them all when creating a pretty wolf but find myself avoiding them.

I don't like the super saturated cheeto-orange or tomato red bases. I also find it hard to like Snow, it just looks kinda dirty imo?

I'm not fond of the muted purple tones like Lilac and Isabel, and I don't like the face markings on Melchior, but I don't really hate any bases.

I do definitely hate the Full Mask marking.

For me, my least favorite bases are the Yellow/Golds, Reds and Greens. I just tend to favor less bright or crazy colors for my wolves (I’ll let the sunset type colors slide since they can look pretty nice sometimes lol)

My least favorite markings are any of the Ticking, Grizzle, Masks (mainly when they’re super obvious), and Merles (except for when they’re more natural looking or blend in with other markings)

I also especially don’t like red markings (I’m sure I’m in the minority but I think I’m either just tired of seeing them or they’re just too unrealistic looking but that’s just me lol and no offense to anyone who has or likes them!)
