I use it because we still don't have points yet. How many years have we been waiting for this simple gradient still?

Oh well...

i rlly like the concept. but the result, what we currently have is an extremely weak gene. Its visually weak. i feel like the scales are, too ???? idk??? unnatural? They are too smooth They dont look textured. They have NO structure. This gene is basically Contour+ with some extra lines added on it looks a bit more like soemone drew blocks of color, THEN added in the "scales" on top, so instead of something structured like this: [img]https://i.imgur.com/ywtL7qq.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Njigyjk.png[/img] we get to have this: [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=2&bodygene=0&breed=10&element=7&eyetype=2&gender=0&tert=99&tertgene=15&winggene=0&wings=2&auth=c8e88153dd2c26ff871129c42b922b9ecbacec35&dummyext=prev.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/PglVy4Z.png[/img] edit* Zoomed in clips

i think it looks really good when the color matches the primary; otherwise it's clashy. i like it on these guys, for example: [url=https://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=40063768] [img]https://flightrising.com/rendern/350/400638/40063768_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=https://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=39044145] [img]https://flightrising.com/rendern/350/390442/39044145_350.png[/img] [/url]

i guess it's kinda like those genes like crackle or ringlets? can be amazing w the right colors but when it's not? Bad

I have a scry with scales I'd like to make eventually - I was specifically trying to find a use for it and I made something alien looking [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=81&bodygene=17&breed=2&element=7&eyetype=3&gender=0&tert=37&tertgene=15&winggene=25&wings=81&auth=dc3e9ed8fcb317cf65bb726501f9c1d9e3bdb54f&dummyext=prev.png[/img] I have the hardest time finding uses for it because of the face being colored? And the coverage on the face is shaped strangely, if that makes sense. I don't dislike it though.

I personally like scales, but I think it's extremely situational. And that's why I only have one dragon with it. I think it looks neat when you have a XYX dragon tho
