I Literally Have Spent My Entire Morning Doing This - Tumblr Posts

I've been having a hell of a time with cat genetics lately. I had previously mentioned how much Emberdusk annoyed me (he didn't even have the full set of colorpoint markings) so I modified him a little. The one on the left will be his new design going forward.

I also tried my hand at figuring out how close I could get to his design in a more realistic cat. I had to figure out what his parents were first. So I messed with this generator and had to figure those out first. His sister having flame/cream points and him having seal and a darker main body color than white/cream was most of what I had to work with and I tried to get something for him as close as possible to a color that could look red, even if only by sunlight. Ended up with seal sepia and decided it was good enough.

Then I spent the next several hours determining Whitefern's genes so I could figure out what their kids would look like so I can design them. Oh boy. And I probably still got some stuff wrong I bet.
