The Cherry Blossom base thread made by another user inspired me to try making a February-event base myself! A lot of the Valentines bases I've seen (including the ones that are actually in the game) seem pretty light, so I wanted to try making a really dark, richly-colored one!

Speaking of "rich", I named it the Cordial base, named after these babies (I want some really bad...)

Here it is:

cordial_base_zpsg4hvixwm.pngHere's a 2.0 version! This one leans more towards red-brown than pink.
cordial_base_2_zpskcoizs16.png

I'm fully ready to embrace "UGH MORE PINK LIONS???" and "ARGH THIS IS TOO UNNATURAL THALATH YOU SUCK" comments and no supports but thought I'd give it a shot! This is the first time I've designed a base apart from helping with the Eggnog base made by Lassie [I.R.I.S.] (#49710).

Let me know if you think it's too saturated or even too unsaturated or what. Hope you guys like it!

I'm aware Red Dark Countershaded Special (not Common, durrrr me) would make more sense, but all of the Valentines bases are currently in Cream so I thought I'd put this one in there as well



This suggestion has 296 supports and 15 NO supports.

I'll support 2.0. The other has too much purple/pink for me. (But then again, I really hate the color pink so I'm a terrible judge. Blush Rose is the exception along with 2.0)

I like both, though I wonder what the first one would look like if it's hue was more on the red side than purple? The second is a little too dark (i can barely see it, but I like red anyhow xD)

It looks like this, Lola:

It turned pretty brown when I changed the hue so I even had to up the contrast a bit to keep it looking more red

I like that mix a lot Thalath. I do think it's rather unfair we have bright pink eyes, but not even a soft lavender eye color?!

I do like it more brown, that would probably be a better alternative for those who don't like lavender... However I love all these bases =)

i think it would be nicer if there was a little bit of light pink mixed in there like a cordial

Thanks you guys!

@yonkers: Yeah, you're right. I wanted originally them to have lighter pink spots too. I kind of tried, but then I was afraid it might end up looking like it had markings on it, which I wanted to avoid. There is a little bit of lighter pink on the first one, but it's barely visible (especially under the lineart layer)

I prefer 1.0. It's a nice little color that would adorable with brown markings.
