Due to others becoming inactive this is a new closed species vent blog!

Below are a few guidelines but other than those anything is welcome here. Go crazy 🍋

Please indicate what species you’re talking about, whether it be in “()” or just simply naming it

Death threats, doxxing, racist or homophobic remarks are not tolerated. Anything of the sort will be ignored

Serious accusations (pedophillia, zoophilia, ect.) needs to be accompanied with proof. Said proof should be more than a cropped discord screenshot as those are very easy to fake

If anything on this blog is concerning, feel free to dm or ask us about it and we’ll remove/deal with it!

We have the right to ignore any ask if we deem it harmful, inappropriate or anything else that we think should not be said. While this is a blog to vent, keep it civil

Shitting on designs is allowed ! Preferably with a photo or link but it’s not needed. No design is safe

Specific call outs are allowed to some extent, but if it goes too far (ex. irl names, personal info, ect.) it’ll be shut down

This is run by two people which is indicated by a sign off ! lemon 🍋 and melon 🍈. If you’d like to request a specific answer from one of us you’re free to put one of the emoji’s in your message

Remember to ask anonymously !

Hope to grow this, or at least until the other blogs become active again, so ask away! 🍋🍈 (Mingy means mean and stingy btw if people don’t know! We think it’s funny)

you guys are the dumbfucks that keep sending saunt your money and expecting anything more from her than her typical scummy bs. "fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice, shame on me". the fact that people are fully aware of her shitty tendencies yet keep feeding into them is EXACTLY the reason why she keeps doing what she does. STOP GIVING HER MONEY.

yor analyssi of why a design issnt good is actually really helpful can you sort of show what makes a good design vs a bad one from a pop designer? like maws or scpkid also can you help explain why sauntproof's art is so hard to replicate her style sort of MAKES chows look like chows

Thank u bro!!

(saunt uses any pronouns from what i can tell so I'll just use they/them for sake of simplicity)

And yeah sure, let's talk about it! I've looked at too much maws and scpkid stuff today, so we'll do saunt analysis. I'm gonna be breaking down some of their art and explaining my process and the motifs and foundations I find. So, first breakdown I did! The best thing you can do while breaking down work is using triangles (watch Ethan Becker for more on that.)

They're strong shapes that provide balance and structure, essentially.

So what we see immediately is obviously that you can shrink this design down to maybe 1/5 of the side and it will still be clear what it is. The silhouette's in Saunt's style are (generally) clear and uniform. Almost all their designs have the same silhouette, which makes their work immediately recognizable from afar. (u can look at a toyhouse thumbnail and say awh fuck a saunt design)

They often keep the silhouette clear by keeping the limbs closest to our view within the shape of the body, and letting the limbs on the other side of the body disrupt the shape.

SO what we get is- all of saunt's designs are just big triangles with smaller triangular cuts made into them.

This shape is found even in the way they draw fur. It's simple and avoids complication.

Here's a design which they made for themselves, which segues very well into the next thing I noticed!!

Big, medium, small!! This is a really important design principle, if everything in ur design is the same size it becomes boring and there's no visual hierarchy.

Our Big stuff is: the largest back plates on the back and head. Same with the 'spines.' The medium details are the middle back plates and legs, and our smalls are the eyes, ropes, and the neck tag.

notice how our smalls are clustered around the head and the back end of the design is relatively repetitive and uncluttered.

(not to say it's a perfect design but be quiet I'm fucking talking)

Color! Saunt's use of color isn't the Best but it's Good. Lukewarm sushi type beat.

They make use of what is a "black" and "white" in the palette (your darkest and lightest colors) and one or two pop colors with relatively non distracting neutrals as a backdrop for these.

Your pop color in the smore bitch is the eye, an almost green/yellow which contrasts the more red/yellow of the rest of the design. Big medium small isn't utilized as well here but it gets a pass because the design still has breathing room to help with visual hierarchy.

Chows are largely defined by soft, rounded features, proportionally large head + tail with smaller body, lots of tapers and rounded triangles, and largely neutral colors with a few pop colors.

There are obviously chows that break these guidelines but it's a large portion of Saunt's work.

As for the more stylistic elements that contribute to Saunt's work

their very thin textured linework with a few spots of pure black (pupils, eye outlines) and low contrast inner lines that are colored

Simplified textures and shapes

uniform silhouettes that they build on top of

Generally the neck is hidden in their designs. This is important (to me) because it aids in smoothly transitioning the head into the torso. If you actually look at the leading lines of chow necks, they're fucking tiny. So Saunt is smart to cover them and concentrate clutter in that area. Neck, what neck?

ROUNDED TRIANGLES

soft and subtle design gradients

This isn't a perfect breakdown but I'm real tired so this is what yall get

Tbh finding out sirfluff was saunt’s friend and that they were both involved in closed species made me lose such tremendous respect instantaneously that I just never looked at them the same again. Always thought fluff’s animations were pretty cute, albeit incredibly edgy and vaguely sexual at times. (Guess that’s just their brand) But now it’s just uncomfortable knowing that it’s just what they’re into and that they just act Like That in public with no issue. A joke’s a joke, but it’s just really weird they don’t really care about the energy they bring into the studio so long as nobody tells them to stop.

Bottom line is just that I can’t respect anyone genuinely into CS and accepts whatever Saunt is fucking doing.

lol that makes a lot more sense with the amount of gross chows saunt let pass just because sirfluff likes them. both are mega trash

Can Sauntproof actually stop taking in more commissions and finish the ones she fucking owes? holy shit this is becoming ridiculous on how many people are waiting for her to finish her owed customs.

I think it's funny that this keeps happening bc everyone keeps giving her money every time so she knows that she never has to actually do any of her owed work, and she can just keep opening comm slots indefinitely for literal infinite money. Everyone has their heads so far up her asshole and licking her shit that they don't even care that they'll never get what they paid for. They just love giving her money.

[sir-fluffbutts]

are showlings an Open species? If they are- may I make chowlings? As long as credit who the species belongs to?

chowlings are a closed species owned by sauntproof on toyhouse!

so no i don't think you can make them 😔

---

however

- i think you CAN make a character with similar anatomy as long as you don't call it a "chowling™"

- i herd they'll allow people to make "in game chows" when the species videogame releases, but not too sure of that

offbrand chowling species!!

This is NOT an beware and I know so many people hates and dosen't like " Chowling " the closed species and dosen't like Sauntproof. I saw the Saunt said " I'd never charge over 1000 for chowling/ sushling " but it already over 1000 euro. 💀 at least if you wanted to makes chow then ofc you need to buy myo ticket for 100 euro or saving festival tickets like 5000. It means they're expensive to makes chowling.

-----------------------------------------

So I want to makes offbrand species about chowling because there's so many who wanted to gets them but expensive and hates about Sauntproof. ( they have a a lot of dramas you can find them as tumblr. ) So give me a advice should I try makes offbrand about chowling or symprite. ( symprite is kinda weird because the theme has a piss baby 💀) -----------------------------------------

Ik about offbrand are bad for people's because you guys think offbrand is rip off and having a dramas. But at least ? OFFBRAND are NOT illega And the design itself you cannot copyright a closed species.

Hilarious how owners of species wouldn’t be popular artists if they never created a CS. Pajuxi wouldn’t be making a fraction of what she makes off of Dainties if she never started that blasted CS, same would go for Sauntproof, Seel, etc. etc.

Tell me the last time someone commissioned these people for something unrelated to their CS’. I’ll wait.

Anon you are spitting straight facts. -🃏

every time i see a sylphling i get a step closer to becoming the joker

#STOP!!! SUPPORTING!!!! THEM!!!!! #sauntproof stole a design and mass produced it despite the owner repeatedly asking her not to #profited HEAVILY off east asian culture (shes white) without doing anything for asian people #was generally snotty and shitty and made rules without consulting anyone and refused to take criticism #hid behind her mental illness as a reason why she refused to take criticism #was ableist in her old species #and the MYO contest was rigged (over 100 entries and it took them less than half an hour to pick the winners #who were all mods or friends of saunt)

[csmingy]

Did Saunt already give up on those collab adopts

probably 🍋

Sauntproof seems to consistently have issues with actually sending buyers separate files I swear this isn’t the first time I’ve heard of a chow batch where the buyers just never got the actual files and that time, they had to screenshot the designs off the adopt sheet.

(gen) what is the story behind the discord ss in your banner?

oh it's from sauntproof not even two years ago mentioning she'd never charge over 1000 for a (at the time called sushling) chowling

most expensive chowling was sold for 2000 euros so far

.https://chowlingspecies.com/character/C-593

.https://chowlingspecies.com/character/C-337

second most expensive at 1500 euros

saunt having custom slots that highest would be 1000euros and upwards

saunt having a custom auction that has a tier that's 1000euros+

with plenty other chows going for 500-700euros and more, and even very simply chibis being placed at 200euros

just to show saunt making a statement and obviously going back on it for the sake of greed

I am so here for Chowling slander. I was JUST complaining about how this species is ran. The fact that Saunt isn’t even in her own species server anymore and has left the like 2 mods on their own to announce things and attempt to aid the members. If you even think you want news about Chows, you have to join her “personal server” that is 18+. People had to be left in the dark about so much stuff for no reason other than awful awful planning. I only just learned how awful Saunt is and it really all makes sense as to why her fans act the way they do! Putting up Chows they get up for offers the second the transfer goes through. Complaining about losing fcfs and raffle events. They’re all such entitled crybabies. I am gladly finally out of this species after realizing this absolute BS.

The whole species needs to burn tbfh
