Have you ever made a design that needed something small to finish the perfect look? Or perhaps a specific area of a lion was missing some spots? Or maybe your lion needs a small final touch in an extra marking slot?

It might not seem like much, but small filler markings were a ton of work to help bring your designs to perfection. We're introducing 12 new marking designs with plenty recolours, adding a whole new 149 total markings to Lioden today.

New markings:
* Ear Spots (Onyx, White, Bone, Red)
* Tail Half (Onyx, Brown, Cream, White, Red, Henna, Blue, Black, Silver, Chert, Scoria)

* Tail Carving (Onyx, Black, Dark Brown, Brown, Chocolate, Henna, Red, Cream, White, Gold, Blue, Royal)

These are all custom markings available in the default Marking Applicator and Oasis.
It looks like Chert Tail Half had a typo causing it to not appear, this will be fixed by sunday.

We hope you guys will have fun with detailing your designs! This is the last batch of new markings until next new mutation comes out.

New Bases:

* Clear White * is a new Black Light Solid Special, a custom available in Oasis, per huge user demand to introduce a pure 100% lightest white colour possible, as the 2012 White base was more creamy and a little outdated compared to what we need now.

* Arabica * is a new Combo base that requires Buttermilk or Buttercream combined with a Black base (the actual Black base, you know, the oldschool original Black base. yes). Hope you can smell that coffee from your screens. It is a Cream Dark Countershaded Special.

* Soul * is a new Combo base that requires Ebony bred to Ivory (or vice versa). It is a Black Light Countershaded Special.

Mutation status:
Actually today's update has been prepared for all mutations, however due to time restrictions we were not able to recolour them all for friday news! Please be patient as by sunday we plan to upload today's files for *all* mutations. Luckily at least today's bases are appearing all around!
Mutation file status page - LINK.

Due to a big project aimed for june that we've been working on for months, we had not have time to update as many delayed mutation files as we'd like, however, right after the project launches and our lion arting time is basically open, whole month will be dedicated just to updating the muties and finally get rid of that pending burden, so that we can focus on Tigons next, so that they can launch during EU summer time, just like we mentioned during our dev livestream! Exciting!
