Welcome to another themed custom thread! Instead of doing the same old thing for customs, I've decided to spice things up a bit by restricting what kind of design you can submit. Ideally, this will run every month or so and you will have to make up something completely new each time!
The themes may be simple and obvious, such as a specific color or marking type. Or they may be unusual and abstract, like the kind of phrases that are so popular in semi-custom events. It'll change in every thread, so keep your eyes open for one that inspires you!
This month the theme is... Halloween!
Rules: 1. You may only enter for and win one custom, whether regular or familiar. 2. You must design your own custom. There may be CC elements but this is supposed to be a fun exercise for your mind, not mine ;3 3. Your custom must fit the theme for the month. You may defend/explain your choices at the bottom of your form, if you feel it is needed. 4. You must have a reference image, even if it's just a quick doodle, colorful blob or literal scribble* ______ 4b. References should not just be a photograph. Pick your exact colors, decide on how you want your intended design executed.. don't be afraid of Paint! I gave my blobby reference examples for a reason, they're fun and helpful! 5. You may enter previously-designed customs as long as they fit the theme but low luck is irrelevant here and entering does not contribute to your low luck counts! 6. Adult customs only, please! This may change in the future but for now, no growths. 7. These are absolutely free and do not count towards your monthly customs.
Note: I am willing to try just about anything, but know that there are limits to what I can pull off and I will always choose to refuse design elements over giving you an unsatisfactory attempt at what you asked for. Don't let that stop you from challenging me with something awesome, but please be understanding if I have to request or suggest changes.
These will be both randomized and CC, and I will aim to take as many as I can.
* Yes, these are all actual reference images I have used for customs.

Name: TBD Stage: Adult Gender: Female Species: Lioness (Newest sitting lines no bangs) Parents: N/A Offspring: N/A Description: This one might be a stretch to fit the theme- let me know if it is and I'll change it and try for her some other time. Mostly-black cat! Colors can be eyedroppered from my trackpad attempt ref. White color is #FFFFFF. Reference Image(s):My horrible track-pad attempt - An actual pic of her in her older years, having suffered a paw injury.
((We lost our cat this weekend- she was a mostly-black cat, so I thought she might qualify. I always thought of her as a halloweenish cat, even though she wasn't pure black. Whether or not she does purely for her black(ish) cat-ness, she was a black(ish) cat whose path it was always bad luck to cross, regardless of your size or species. There were many a small fluffy animal that met with plenty of fear at her paws, so that's halloweeny. XDDDD (She was about 23, so not too shabby.))) - Rolled

Name: Lousine Stage: Adult Gender: Female Species: Lion - Sitting female with mane tuft Parents: ? x ? Offspring: N/A Description: Colored like the ref image. Since this is a pet conversion, I would like to see her arm band markings around her upper forelegs. Pelt should be colored like her deer half, and if he tail could fade off into the white of her hair that would be awesome. Toes should be colored like her hooves.
