Important Note: We have some expectations for staff, primarily communication and work being completed within a timely manner (2 months from date work is taken on). Keep this in mind when deciding on the position you wish to apply for. We are very understanding (irl happens, it's all good!) and are more than willing to work with you and help you out if you need it! All we ask for is communication between staff members and the customers the work is owed to!

What We're Looking for:

• Edit colorists of every level
• Unedit colorists
• Companion colorists

Samples:

• 2 coloring samples and 1 breeding sample minimum, but you can add as many samples as you like!
• No shading - but you may add highlights to hair and jewelry if you wish. It's not required.
• Colored lines are optional unless specified by the customer!
• Any edits are totally fine - go nuts! We may have various options on the lines for body edits and several breeds coming out, but we wanna see what you got!

Notes and Rules:

• You may keep 1 of your samples if you're hired on, the rest should be gamed off or used for the shop in some way.
• You may use pets that you own as inspiration for your samples, but you may not directly copy someone else's pet.
• All pets must go through approval, within reason!
• Use of AI inspiration is strictly prohibited. We'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but please don't feed the machine.
