Introducing the Malabar Squirrel base!

Based off of the Malabar giant squirrel (or more commonly the Indian giant squirrel) I drew up this base by hand, because we can't have enough sparkle lions! I made this with the intent of a craftable applicator, like the Scent of Fuchsia, but I'm all for anything!

What are Malabar giant squirrels?
Malabar giant squirrels are squirrels native to forests and woodland in India. These critters are very colorful, as well as beautiful and absolutely adorable! They're often orange, blue and purple, but sometimes just yellow and purple. But just for fun's sake, I chose to base my design off of the more vibrant ones!




How does this look with markings?
A fair question! After finishing the base I thought crap, would this even fit with any markings in the game considering all of those colors? Turns out, yes it can!
Here are a few examples:

Hibiscus Feline:


Haliotis Margay:


Sunrise Splendor:


Cloudburst Mist:



Extras
Let me know what you think! I worked really hard on this base, so I hope you like it! Feel free to give critique of course! The markings I used may not be the best examples in the world, but they were just the ones I had on the top of my head! If you find better suited ones, lmk!

User inputs/ideas
kreech: Sounds like something the Gorilla Enclave would sell lol. But if it's a craftable, how about 100 squirrel tails, 50 rainbow stones, & 10 marble berries/fuchsia flowers?
