User Image............................................::Welcome::............................................

Thanks for coming to check out my little hole in the breedables. This shop offers a creature with 7 stages, starting from a bird to a human. There will be two of every egg sold, a male and a female. Both have similar stages until they reach their adult bird stage and then are completely unique in their human stages. Did I mention that you get to customize your human stages?
I also offer the original animated firebirds that this shop originally sold. Each 'breed' has a limited amount sold.
Interested?
Then please keep reading.

You interested in making some gold colorin' then see post 8

Stage One
User Image

Like all birds (as far as I know) your firebird starts off as an egg. This stage usually last for 1 week
Stage Two
User Image

Okay so its a wee bit hard to see but after a few days your bird wants freedom so a crack begins on the egg. This usually 1 week
Stage Three
User Image

Odd looking like most chicks, your bird with its oversized head has broken free of its egg prison...now only if it could get the rest of its body out. This stage usually lasts 1 week
Stage Four
User Image

Oh what a fine youngling you have. Call it a teen if you will. Your little chickie has finally learned to fly, although not so great at it yet. This stage usually last 1-2 weeks
Stage Five
User Image User Image

To the left is a find handsome male firebird and to its right is a stunning female. These firebirds are full grown now. Withing time they will be able to control their powers and transform into humans at will. This stage usually last 1-2 weeks
Stage Six
User ImageUser Image

Humm I wonder what could be happening. Oh yes I did say something in that last stage didn't I. The transformation begins. This stage usually last 1 week
Stage Seven
User Image User Image

The final stage of your Firebird. It has mastered transformation and has picked what its alter ego will look like. How snazzy. Dressed in some odd clothing that must be traditional to its race, we can only assume. This stages requires some work on your part, you must pick the skin, eye, and hair color as well as the hair style, see below for choices. This stage last forever....so save it to your server cause in 14 days it'll be gone.

***** If you don't have a clue what you want, choose the wildcard option and have the colorists surprise you*****

Breeding costs 13k or 6.5k from each owner.
Breeding can only occur if both birds have reached their adult bird stage and must be from a male and female pair. I'm sticking with basic biology here.
Like their human counterparts, the birds may choose to remain monogamous or have multiple partners. This choice has no effect on how many times they can breed as each bird can only breed once per month.
Each breeding produces two identical eggs, one male and one female. The final human stages are customizable just as the regular birds.
Owners may keep the eggs or give them away but they cannot sell the eggs. If you would prefer to raffle or auction the egg it must be done through the shop and the shop will deduct a 10% administration fee.
When a pair has entered breeding a new cert will be created to show the adult bird with a nest. This goes for both male and female birds. The cert will not be direct linked but it will be posted below.

My original shop was based on the animated birds. I still like the animated birds so I am carrying them to this shop as well. Unlike the other firebirds the animated ones are limited therefore there will be a certain amount of them sold.
All limited are sold for 2.5k unless stated otherwise. All birds come with a basic background with the choice of sky, any additional backrounds will cost (will decided later when I've made some).

HERE is a sample of the line art.

So whats in it for the colorists?
Well so far this is what I've worked out. 65% of sales, 80% of customs, 85% of anything with line art edits.

And how much is that?
Oh yeah. Sales start at 6k. This may or may not change depending on popularity. (You would make 3900 gold per pet sold) As a colorists you would set your own prices for customs.

What is expected of the colorists?
Right now I have a flat sale every few months. I would expect one firebird for every flatsale. I always send out a pm before I plan a sale. Once we have more colorists we can have more flatsales.
All colorists must have the 5 bird stages done before they go on sale. The two final stages will be expected later. Colorists will receive 50% of their cut for the first five stages and then the rest after they've completed the final two stages.

Other important things you need to know.
There are always two birds for every egg sold. One male and one female. The first 4 stages are the same whereas the remaining 3 are separate.
The final two stages are going to be slightly customizable where the owners get to pick the skin color, hair color, eye color, hair style.
I also have a shading template for all the stages. I'm not that great at shading the birds but they look decent. If you have photoshop I can send you all the layers and that will make your job easier.

I'm Interested so now what?
COLOR THIS. The egg and teen stage is optional , you must color the adult bird and human. I also accept other art samples as applications but colored firebirds are prefered. Once you are done you may pm me your entry or post in the thread, whatever you prefer.

Okay, right now I'm just using the story from my old shop. I plan to tweak it a bit. But for now it will do.

Intro
Unknown to many, the Firebird is not the same as a Phoenix. They are two separate mythical beasts. Firebirds are rather colorful and not the assumed colors of fire; red,orange,yellow. Firebirds are actually nocturnal creatures as this tends to be an excellent time to raid orchirds for fruit. The bird is quite bright and can illuminate the land that is passes over giving it a fire like appearance. Hence the name.
Firebirds like sweet juicy fruits. This will often get wild Firebirds in trouble as they steal fruit from wealthy farmers. Their favorite food is cherries.
They also have beautiful singing voices which can put anyone to sleep if the that is the bird's intentions.

The Lair
During a trip to Russia, the homeland of the Firebird I came across the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. But before that I was traveling on foot and I just happened to get lost in a forest. Well I found a berry bush and decided to camp there for the night and during my uncomfortable sleep on the ground I was awoken by a bright light. I opened my eyes to see a blinding light creeping through the cracks of the bush as well as illuminating the whole area. I, still being groggy assumed it was a person with an extremely bright lantern. So I suddenly stood up and said hello. I was surprised to see a beautiful colored bird nibbling on berries. But I startled it and it shot up into the night sky and disappeared so quickly I wasn't even sure if it was there at all. But when the bird left it must have got caught in the berry bush as there was two feathers left behind. One was glowing a golden light while the otherone was broken and no longer glowed. I left the broken one where it was...but I was compelled to take the glowing feather. I really didn't want to attract unwanted creatures with the light so I tucked it under my tunic and slept the rest of my night rather peacefully.
When I woke in the morning it seemed that my luck has changed. I found the road in no time and I was off to the next town. But when night rolled around again I took out the feather and just staired at it. The longer I looked at it the more I wanted to go back to that forest and look for the bird again. But I knew I wouldn't be able to find that berry bush again. I went to sleep...but it was a restless one as all I could dream about was the bird. The eyes pierced through my soul and the bird seemed to be speaking to me but I couldn't make out the words.
After that night and several other, I made my way back to the forest. After searching every bush I could find I made my way back to the very berry bush I slept by a few nights past. The broken feather was gone...but the pull in my heart told me it was the right spot. I spend night after night there but no sign of the bird. The dreams got worse and I thought that I might be going insane. But one night I arrived later than usual and caught the end of the birds song which made me a little sleepy but for the most part I was alert with excitement.
But how could I keep the bird from running off? Well I couldn't, but I decided I'd try to approach it...and bribe it. I pulled some strawberried out of my bag and rolled them in the direction of the bird.
The bird was startled but seemed to contemplate what to do before taking the strawberries. I still wasn't sure if I should actually leave my cover and try to get closer...but that was solved for me.
The bird glowed really bright to the point where I couldn't see the bird anymore...and slowly the shape started to change. What once was a bird was now a woman. The most beautiful woman i've ever seen.
"You do not need to hide from me. I know you have my feather and I can see into your soul."
I walked slowly to meet her by the berry bush.
"Thank you for the strawberries, although I prefer cherries, they are afterall the favorite food of the Firebirds," she said.
"Firebirds...is that what you are," I asked.
"Yes, I am one of many kinds. I am a nightstar one of the scarse breeds. My name is Freyja."
We talked for some time and I learned that their kind was becoming extinct as the birds were forced into hiding in order to escape become slaves or pets.
"I need your help," she pleaded. "I am afraid for my children, and I wish to make sure that our breed will live on."
I nodded and said, "I understand your feelings, but what can I do to help?"
"I need you to protect my children, raise them and find a safe haven for them to grow up in."
I shook my head. "But surely they are better off with their mother."
She sighed and the look on her face almost brought tears to my eyes. "I cannot protect them. Nor can others. There are many others out there who wish to adopt their children so that they may lead a better life. I'm sure you'll be able to take care of them...or pass them on to those who can."
The night ended and I made my way back to the town. It was decided that in 2 weeks time I would venture back into the forest to pick up 2 eggs. Freyja's children.
After that i've made many visits back to Russia. Freyja's feather has given me the ability to speak with other Firebirds and with her magic they trust me. In each visit I find a new breed to bring back home and at the Firebird's Lair we breed them in order to ensure their survival. And when there is an abundance of eggs they are adopted out to trusting people to take care of.
