To Piebald or Not to Piebald- Closed

To Piebald or Not to Piebald- Closed
Posted 2022-11-25 15:44:33 (edited)
Hello all!

I come to you with a very simple contest: should I add torn piebald to my future stud? This is their wardrobe link.
I'm pretty happy with their design, but I got my hands on a torn piebald app. I'm on the fence if I should apply it or not, since the market might be oversaturated with them by the time she becomes my stud.

So, anyways, the contest: add decor to the wolf linked (without changing the background or pose) and add (or don't add) the torn piebald mutation. That's it.

If you explain why or why not I should apply the piebald mutation, you get a 50sc participation prize. I'll pick the design I like best, and the winner gets 2gc. This will close… sometime. Probably in a week.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Reasons to add piebald:
- Generally, any mutations are valuable in studs
- The multicolored limbs look sick
- The white tail tip also looks very nice

Reasons to not add piebald:
- Covers the head stripe, which I personally love

Thanks for your entry! I love the glowing decor :)

Honestly the head stripe is the biggest thing stopping me from adding it, black head stripe is my favorite marking

Reasons to Piebald:
> really likely to stud because it's new and a mutation
> looks really awesome
> covers Limbs AND A PAW :000
> amazing tail tip

Reasons to not piebald:
>covers head stripe
> covers more than half the body, which makes it hard to see the amazing markings
> uneven, a pet peeve of mine

Reasons to piebald:
-piebald studs are valuable and you could increase the price
-more people would breed to her
-I personally think the contrast of dark and light colours is very pretty

Reasons not to piebald
-kind of ruins dark theme
-the market is being flooded with piebald studs
-you could sell the applicator in 6 months for a much higher price than they are selling for now

Overall, wait until you need to set her as stud before you use the app (if you do)! Then you will know what the market is like around piebalds at that time and you don't regret using it.

Hey everyone! I'm ending this a bit earlier than expected. Despite my urge to put the MoD on Allura, I'm going to resist and save it for my next next stud, to try make some more low-gen piebalds months from now. I've got a contest for their potential design here (it will be open for a while) if you're interested: link

Anyways, for this contest, the design winner is elba! I absolutely loved the black and white wings, it really pulls the look together.

Thank you all for participating and for your advice!

I loved your design too @wolffox The confetti looked great with the BG and her markings and I love a good celtic cloak, but I'm always a sucker for those cryptid event wings

You'll just have to try again in my next contest, for a better prize this time
