Template and design customization rules
You are allowed to:
- Draw your own horns, as long as it's the correct shape and type for your Veilhorn's horn genotype - see Horns customization guide.
- Draw your own iris/pupil shape in the eye.
- Color the lineart on the template as long as it is still visible and darker than the design. The lineart may be lighter than the design for spectral wings or similar.
- Customize coat and markings with dapples, mapping, and more. See Coat variations customization guide.
- Draw your own mane and tail or modify the ones included in the template as long as it follows the respective mane and tail customization rules.
- Draw your own mutation linearts or modify the ones included in the template, as long as it does not resemble a mutation your Veilhorn doesn't have. Wings from Seraph mutation must be positioned in such a way that they do not obscure the body of the character too much (use default wing linearts if unsure).
- Color in the chestnuts on the legs, as long as they follow the same color rules as the hooves.
- Draw your own all-seer eyes if your Veilhorn has All-seer.
- Reupload the finished design made on these templates on other sites as long as you link back to this site in the submission or description.
- Share modified versions of the design templates in the #modded-design-templates channel in our official discord server, as long as the modified template follows these rules.
You may not:
- Crop or resize the template/lineart.
- Add a background image or background color, it must be uploaded with transparent background. (You will be able to select and change background image after the design has been approved, which is why it must be uploaded on a transparent background).
- Add accessories or armor/clothing/items. You can use equipment after the design has been approved.
- Add shading or textures that do not resemble your Veilhorn's genes or Coat variations.
- Draw scars, injuries, broken/missing horns, or missing limbs. They can be added on your character's reference sheet after the design has been approved.
- Move or change the position of the template/lineart on the canvas.
- Alter the lineart of the body. While you may draw mutations and such, you may not give the template a different size (making it smaller or larger), reposition the legs, or change the character's shape/build (making it more slender or heavy). You may not alter the head shape to give it a roman or dished face - these are customizations that should be on the reference image instead. The only customization allowed on the body lineart itself is for a decayed/skeletal lich mutation which may require erasing parts of the template and redrawing them as a skeleton.
- Draw your own horns to resemble a horn shape/type your Veilhorn doesn't have.
- Redistribute the template files themselves (except for within our official discord server) or claim the files as your own.
