Hello folks! I took a long hiatus from Lioden and now I'm back, rebuilding and expanding my pride, and would like a very handsome king/queen to match!

Currently, this is Serraden:

They're pretty blah, so I'm looking for someone to redesign them! Also, there is a very good chance I'm going to use the lab test frog and turn them into a queen, since I love it and I've seen so many members with gorgeous queens.

Theme
More of a guideline? Your design does NOT have to follow any of these, they're just general ideas to help with inspiration!
* Galaxy/Space
* "Natural"
* Dusk/Night
* Dawn/Sunrise
Please do not take this to mean I don't want warmer colors, these are just themes I really enjoy in designs!

These are markings and bases I like, but don't necessarily NEED in the design

There is just something so beautiful about this design, and it really spoke to me as a replacement for my (now)Queen's current design! Congratulations!

Second place, and 25 belongs to @Yuko (#259443) with their Second Entry
I think this design speaks for itself. This is a lion I would BRAG ENDLESSLY about owning.
