All pre-existing markings can be recolored with dyes without needing extra items. Markings can be removed by coloring them with the same color as the surrounding fur. Removed markings cannot be restored without the use of a [[Dye|Marking Primer]]!
====New Markings====
New markings can be added to Mothcats characters using [[Dye|Marking Primer]], in addition to any required dyes for colors.
====Gradients====
Regular dyes only offer "flat" and "solid" recolors. To add gradients, an [[Dye|Essence of Rainbow]] must be used.
Any trait change requires the use of the appropriate level of [[Trait Change Ticket]] (TCs), whether this be to swap traits within a rarity level, or to increase the rarity level of a trait.
In the specific case of [[Mothcat Breeds|subbreed Mothcats]], Common TCs maybe may be used to add up to a maximum of two breed-specific traits to that cat. Any breed-specific traits beyond two requires an Exclusive TC.
If a Self Service Salon is used to apply a TC to a cat and nothing else, or any other changes qualify as minor, the 1SFT 10 FT fee is not charged.
There is no hard limit to TC use, but trait changing will be considered in determining if a design is recognizable.
====Eyes====
Eyes can be dyed by using [[Dye|Eye Primer]] along with a normal or egg dye. Egg dye is used when only the eye color is being changed, or if the new eye color is not otherwise being applied to the catcharacter. Otherwise, the eyes are considered part of the catcharacter's "area" for determining how many regular dye bottles are needed.
One Eye Primer changes one color in the eyes- it cannot be used to add more colors. More eye colors can only be added through trait changes (such as heterochromia for more iris colors, or colored scelra sclera for the sclera).
Essences/Eggsences may not be used with Eye Primers- only "flat" colored dyes may be used.
=== Appraisals ===
Self Service Appraisals may be requested for:
* Cats Characters you own, with no restriction* Cats Characters you don't own, but are either up for public trade or you are in private talks for, with the conditions of:
** You must be able to provide proof of the (potential) trade at staff request
** If the appraisal is being submitted publicly(through the appraisal prompt), it must have the permission of the current owner attached. (You *** Private appraisals can be obtained by using the Ticket system in the Mothcat Discord- start a ticket, provide all the information you would need for an appraisal normally, and request a salon staff member. Public appraisals are preferred- Private appraisals are also welcome to privately note staff about offered in this situation if permission cannot be obtained for some reason and the trade appraisalsis dependent on a design update being viable.)
** Users suspected of using this system to harass other members may be warned at staff discretion.
=== Design Reversions/Art Reversions ===In cases where you are reverting to the a character had previous ''exact previous designofficial, off-base Masterlist art'' of a cat, you may request returning to use the previous this art of the cat, if applicable.is acceptable:* Previous designs/art are available on the catcharacter's chive pagemasterlist entry.* Please use the desired This only applies to ''official Masterlist'' art as your "new" base, and make it clear you're intending to switch back to that design.
* Staff may choose to deny art reversion requests, in the case of extreme ongoing issues or extenuating circumstances.
In cases where you are reverting to the '''exact previous design''' of a character:
* This is considered a Self Service Salon.
* In your appraisal and design update, please use the desired art as your "new" base, and make it clear you're intending to switch back to that design and art.
* Items (like dyes and TCs) and FT are '''still required''', but you do not need to fill out the Masterlist base (the art fills that requirement).
