The newest OotS coat to join our collection is Aestival, along with their Mossy Antlers and Tranquil Glade! This month’s coat and items were created by Plaid. You can purchase this set from the Out of the Shadows shop through the end of the month!

• The Creative Collective is back from its short reprieve! New prompts for September are now available!
• A new round of the Chamber of Reflections has begun!
• This month’s Productivi-Weekend will run from Friday, September 13th through Sunday, September 15th!

 

The Drawntlet is wrapped up with the prize shop closing at the end of August. The prizes for full completion have been handed out as well. We’ll get a feedback form out this week to gather some input for next year! Thank you for your participation!

We forgot to mention this last month, but the item survey is all wrapped up, and the results can be viewed here!

The top 10 suggested item types are:

1. Half gazes and other ways to subtly change a pet’s color
2. Nightmare paws but the back legs instead of just the front
3. Foreground / background items (besides full backgrounds)
4. Coat pattern body mods (e.g., appaloosa blanket, socks, calico blotches)
5. Items with color layers (ex. a potion that could have a red or blue liquid)
6. Moss
7. Accessories fitting specific aesthetics (dark academia, grunge etc.)
8. Assortment of ground / floor items (like seaside sand)
9. Horn and antler varieties
10. Mouth edit items (toothy grin, shocked, frowning etc.)

Up next, we’re diving into our fall event planning! With the excitement of the Drawntlet and the hustle of a busy summer behind us, we’ve decided to blend some elements from our summer event into a unique fall celebration. This approach will work better for our team this year, and we believe it will make for an even more memorable experience.

We’re excited to bring you something truly spooktacular!

• glitch and Myla will be working on the elements of the fall event, with Myla focusing on art and other support and glitch focused on the coding aspect!
• The coordinator team are working on the theming and logistics of the fall event!
• The art team have been working on OotS coats, and will soon be working on seasonal and event art!
