It would be either a combo base or a raffle base.

Combination for combo: Murk / Green or Olive(?) X Ice / Elysian (potentially?)
Open to suggestions about that.

I think this would make a nice green because it's not a highlighter and it's not too dark scaled.

Genetics: Gold or Black Dark Countershaded. (Debatable honestly.)

Name Ideas: Moss, Seaweed, Emerald, Jade.

Hybrid Mockup:

Mottled Rosette + Dawn + Under White 4 Mockup

This suggestion has 101 supports and 23 NO supports.

Touche. I pointed out that my wardrobe version is a more saturated than OP's design, but you guys are reasonable for taking note of it. I was trying to demonstrate that, although this base is a nice idea and it's very pretty, its composition (dark overcoat, pale undercoat, eye rings, faint speckles) can be created using existing markings, thus making it a little unnecessary.

To get a better look at tones, I made a colour chart comparing OP's base design with my wardrobe mockup:
https://sta.sh/02905chji49b

In this, I identified a heap of similarities, colour-picked from the same area on each lioness:
- The two lions have very similar overtones and undertones, although mine are slightly more saturated.
- Although my mid-tone is more saturated than OP's, you'll notice they're... not that different to look at
- The two lions have the same general pattern (rings around the eyes, open neck patch, soft paw gradient, overcoat shape and sloping underbelly coat).
- My version has a background, whereas OP's is transparent. This might be affecting how the shades of green appear, kind of like those optical illusions where two dots of the same colour/size look different because of their surroundings.

Having said that, I also identified two main areas of difference, which I think may be contributing to the difference in shade you guys pointed out. I've labelled them 1 and 2 on my diagram:
1. The highlights, located between the lion's overtones and mid tones. The green base is very vibrant, so in my version, the highlights are much brighter and more saturated. I did acknowledge this earlier.
2. The tail, which I openly admitted I couldn't get right on Wardrobe.

Some other minor differences I noticed as I typed this:
- OP's design has a dark patch under her eyes, but I couldn't replicate this on Wardrobe.
- The Vit 5 marking I used has a different pattern to the speckles on OP's design
- I couldn't tell what eye colour OP used, but I used cucumber

The only other thing I can think of that might be affecting my perspective is my computer's colour space. I'm using a Macbook Air with the Colour LCD setting, which as far as I know is the default. I loaded the image onto my phone to compare and it didn't look too different.

I LOVE IT! It’s not a complete joke base like Green, and it’s not super desaturated and brownish like Olive and Murk. And while I love all those bases, I really want a true green base in the game—and one that actually passes.

too bright/saturated for me. If it got toned down a bit it'd be nice though.
