Box/Bag Turn-In Thread

Post by **Matope** » Thu Nov 21, 2024 5:36 pm

this year's colorists include amitotic, appeal, araucana, beejoux, blue, dizzy_kat, kiwi squirt bottle, maxx, phoe, rexcorvus, seru_ame, and starrydance

Have you won or been gifted a box, bag, or box pile that looks like the above? If so, this is the next place to turn!

Each of the boxes in this thread can be exchanged for an unedited semi-custom kimeti, kiokote, acha, totoma or zikwa from one of our colorists. Each of the bags in this thread can be exchanged for a semi-custom pet/familiar from the list in the following spoiler tag from one of our colorists.

Please keep in mind that all boxes and bags are intended to be semi-customs. While you may choose a species for your semi-custom, please don't submit an inspiration image from another shop or of an OC and expect the markings to be reproduced exactly - it's inspiration only. However, this year you are welcome to choose gender (buck/doe or eye/no eyes linearts) as well as any familiar species that is available to you. Please do not submit a kin colored on Matope CYO/quest templates for a box.

OPEN PETS & FAMILIARS:

Spoiler

In addition to the above core familiars that can be found at Matope, you can ask for any open familiar, as listed in the first post of this thread, or any familiar for which you have permission.

Also, new and available to be claimed with bags in this event, you can ask for Hummingbird! For such tiny creatures, the elegant hummingbird is fierce and intelligent. Expressive in their flights, these bold explorers love indulging their fits of fancy and finding new delights.

FANCY BOXES:

But wait, you say - what if I have one of the boxes in the front, with the fancy ribbons?

Well, congratulations! These fancy boxes contain semi-custom kin with CC edits. Otherwise, they're just like the other boxes in this thread. Please note that these will not be overpixels and that it is completely up to the colorist what edits are present on the kin you get. Reference images with lists of desired edits, edit suggestions in text, and custom edited kin on Matope CYO/quest templates will be ignored, especially considering these boxes are intended to be semi-customs. Cosplay references and/or references of OCs and pets from other shops will not necessarily have the edits present on the inspiration image, and are subject to the same caveats as written above for boxes and bags in general.

BOX PILES

If you're the proud recipient of a new box pile, you can exchange it for a breeding either between two of your own kin, or with another person. Keep in mind that breedings may be edited or unedited, and it is ultimately up to the colorist which they choose. All breedings will have exactly three babies, with no blessings, RP, or tokens for extra babies, and no throwbacks -- and in order to ease our transition, we ask that you include proof of the other owner's approval with your submission! Note: for Winter Market boxpiles, same sex breedings will not require Transformation Flowers for certing.

BAG PILES

If you're the proud recipient of one of our new bag piles, you can exchange it for a breeding either between two of your own familiars, or with another person. All breedings will have exactly three babies -- and in order to ease our transition, we ask that you include proof of the other owner's approval with your submission!

We will not be PMing out these semi-customs this year; instead we will be posting them in a dropoff thread here.
Because colorists may have already started coloring your semi-custom, you may not edit your request once it has been posted.
