 | Only difference between these two is one extra, exactly the same, pigment gene. However, silencing other genes doesn't change their color until you get down to three. Perhaps there's something special about that eighth pigment gene. |
 | A funny result of me messing with eight different pigment genes. |
 | You guys wanted more genes, here you go. This is the effect you get when you have not one, not two, not four, but EIGHT different pigment bleed genes all set to the same extreme values. Those whitish looking ones are the result of extremely low rotation. The white one is low swap/rotation, the yellow one is low rotation/128 swap. Not completely sure about the other ones, but there is also one normal Draconian in there for comparison.
I like using the Draconians for these pigment bleed experiments because they really can get quite colorful with different parts of their body. |
 | I think an intervention may be overdue... |
 | I decided to create all the possible varieties of Pigment Bleed gene, with one gene, for Draconians. Left to Right is Rotation 0 to Rotation 255, up and down is Swap 0 to Swap 255. In the center is Rotation 128 Swap 128, or the base Draconian breed. If there's enough interest I will make a second one of these with the added value of two Pigment Bleed genes instead of one. |
 | I'm enjoying the Garden Box Pumperspikel toys way too much. And in case you were wondering, yes. They are confined to their own space. I think they were eating each other or something. |

 | Nothing pleases a Draconian Norn. |
 | This kind of thing is probably why my business is doing less well than it should be. *sigh* |
 | Just what are these munchrooms growing on? Tree leaves? |
 | It turns out importing the colored Centaurs was a very good idea. Already they're making such lovely colors, including this beautiful pink child! ![[heart] [heart]](/images/smilies/heart.gif) |
 | So I'm scrolling through my C2 Creatures, and I'm taken to the volcano where I'm greeting with this sight. That silly old Grendel's found himself a new toy! He's been spazzing out with that guitar for three minutes now, and doesn't seem to keen on stopping! ![[nlaugh] [nlaugh]](/images/smilies/emot_laugh.gif) |
 | This is Embla, the matriarch of my current C1 world. She was born back in 2011 and I just picked the game back up yesterday. It felt kind of good to just get right back into action, without setting up a new world first! She's over 9 hours old now and probably doesn't have too long left, but there's plenty of children and grandchildren to continue her legacy. |
