hmm. on one hand, i adore these genes immensely and will definitely be using them. love this new approach of a flat neutral color w the main color as an accent - i know many folks have been wanting something like this for a while.

on the other, they definitely don't feel like they deserve the 1.5kg / 1.2kg price tag when they feel like. falcon / peregrine imo.

additionally, the blacks used don't even match btwn the primary and secondary? i guess it's fine if the intent is to allow for more freedom btwn prim and sec choices, but it feels real bad coupled w them being gem genes.

i'm not one to personally care about the pure blacks used, but i can definitely see how it's a head scratcher for others. feels like an error even if it's intentional. it definitely doesn't help that the least invasive way to mitigate that issue is with another gem gene [stained].

Gene is pretty, I like it, but a bit too dark in some parts,making hard to see details of the lineart and others. I believe will be a good contrast for some apparel and other genes, but seems a bit too dark/black in some parts.

Always keeping an eye on gene releases, looking forward for new genes that shows blue in goldenrod color :eyesmoji: hmmmm *w*

ty staff!

This one looks cool but not sure how I feel about it being a gem gene

Also why is it so dark!!

They are pretty cool... But I also find it hard to justify the price tag. It doesn't looks as complex as the other gem genes.

I just scryed these genes on a few of my dragons and WOW. These are some of the prettiest genes ever. Definitely going to have to get a few of these for my works in progress!

They are so cool!!
THough i don't know how to feel about them being gem genes since...usually gem genes are more sparkly, but that just be me and not wanting to spend real money on browser games haha
(and not wanting to grind all day long)
