So, I looked at the wiki page for bases, and thought to myself that the July event needs more variety in its blue bases, especially since most July bases are sky-based. Not just dark blue or slightly blue or gray-blue, but blue-greens and blue-violets and just blue, especially since certain bases should've been blue but aren't (looking at you, Moonstone). So I created this base, Twilight, which is based on how most of the sky turns bright blue and yellow during that time.

All bases proposed use galaxy eyes and blue skin for mockups.

Twilight
Black Medium Countershaded Special


Note that the base is darker and sparklier at the front than the back, to reflect how twilight looks and its nature as a liminal time between day and night.

Now here's the fun part. One thing that I want to see in bases are base-exclusive fails, ie. bases that can only be obtained as fails from another, specific base, much like the exclusive fails for eye colors. For Twilight, I have 4 fail bases considered that are determined by the genetics of the other parent, one for each color, all are Countershaded

Evening OR Hesperus
Red Medium Countershaded Special


Midnight
Black Dark Countershaded Special


Morning OR Eosporus
Cream Medium Countershaded Special


Noon
Golden Light Countershaded Special


Note that these fails are not combos, the base of the other parent doesn't matter as long as they have the genetics to make them possible. A Sunglow NCL and a Maat lion have an equal chance of producing a Noon base when bred to Twilight because they're both Golden Light Countershaded, for example.
Also, while they look more like Specials, the way they are acquired makes me lean a little towards them being Rare instead.

Still considering whether Twilight should be breed-only, as while those are in high demand and don't have enough blue bases, the only plausible way it can be introduced is through the Celestial Raffle, which like the normal raffle is bad at spreading bases, and its fails are already BO. It could be an applicator on the same level as Demiurge, but there are already a lot of applicators in July. Tbh though, I don't really mind either way. EDIT: Based on feedback, I've decided that Twilight should be an applicator.

EDIT 2: I made revamps of all the bases!: reworked bases



This suggestion has 223 supports and 35 NO supports.

while the bases are pretty, i think they're a bit too bright and cluttered (although I lowkey love noon). we need more toned-down bases. HOWEVER I do love the idea of fail bases in general, so that could be a separate suggestion (if you don't want to make that thread and it already isn't a suggestion, I might make one if you don't mind)

@Az [G2 Sunset Charred] (#120781) I mean, the July event alone has a lot of toned-down bases: Celestial, Sidereal, Skyward, Hematite, Howlite, Moonstone, Heavenly, etc. I don't really get why we need more "muted" bases, seeing as even the special category has a lot of brown, golden, black, and gray bases, while all the other categories are near-exclusively shades of brown, yellow, red, and gray, with the occasional black or white. Like, the base Black isn't even actually black, it's gray-brown, there are other bases much darker than it that are rarer and harder to pass.

These are pretty but I think I'd like them even more if they were slightly desaturated! They are kind loud right now which would make them hard to pair with markings
