TOPIC | Tertiary Gene Suggestions
[quote name="Laluzi" date="2018-06-03 11:42:42" ] Firefly got me thinking of uses for bad tertiaries, and I had an idea that's a bit... niche. But potentially extremely useful. I was looking at all my earlier dragons with poor tertiaries that I couldn't use, and in about 80% of those cases, the dragon would have looked excellent with a tertiary color exactly opposite of what it had. And then I was thinking of how newer genes use tertiary/quarternary colors that are often unrelated to the color itself, like chocolate having aqua accents or orca having lime green. So my idea: Negative. Puts some kind of pattern on the dragon, maybe stripes or a nice brindle on the side, or an organic-looking lattice. But the pattern isn't important. It could be anything. The point of the gene is that whatever accent appears on the dragon, it does so in the photo negative of the dragon's tertiary. So a robin tertiary would become a very dark brownish-red, abyss would become a very pale orange, and banana would become a rich purple. It takes the tertiary color and flips it in hue and brightness (but not saturation.) The only color-wheel color that would appear as-is is gray. I'm not sure how such a gene would be accepted, though - if people would see it as 'cheating', in a sense. It would be a difficult one to use in breeding. But it would save a lot of progens and other such dragons with wildly clashing terts, and it's not like it lets you slap any tertiary color onto a dragon - just the exact opposite of what it has. [/quote] it seems like it may not happen, due to it being tricky getting so many colors to flip, but i personally would love it. i'd like to see it on the feet, tips of wings, and maybe gently on the face and body.

Never been to this thread before but I kept thinking about a flower tertiary today and came looking for a place of suggestions - seeing the idea around is a boost of a boon More flower ideas! I'd love to see one that utilizes dimension and space like gembond does - rising up from the dragon and not just as colouration on top of skin. I love flat patterns too by all means, I'm just very interested in seeing more things done like gembond, but more uh... controlled? Cleaner? Calmer? A quick ideas example would be something like this, called either [b]Budding[/b] or [b]Bloom[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/liZ2aw6.png[/img] This is white/caribbean/lemon Flowers blooming from the dragon itself. Tert colours, with the tips coming from the same accent tone that makes the colour gradients in spinner? Not sure yet which would be better - spinner's accents or noxtide's accents. The tert has its own basic shadow cast (normal layer, black at 40%) as well to raise the flowers and give them dimension though Other scrys [img]https://i.imgur.com/pbejHiI.png[/img] Sunset [img]https://i.imgur.com/GdjZ5mx.png[/img] Orchid [img]https://i.imgur.com/5CaKe5v.png[/img] Lead [/quote] This is so pretty!!

Kind of like this, but in smaller areas. Not all cracks would be attached, so there would be free space across the body instead of it being completely covered in cracks.
