Solstice changes

[jocosa]

How do you all feel about the change in wing color for bred Solstice dragons?

I'm not against it exactly, but I really prefer the CB coloring. Sad to know I'll never have more then 2 with that color, I had some checker plans in mind for them with Pyralspite to play off the sunset colors, but now, not so much.

I prefer the CB color, too, but I'm not all that upset about it. I think they both are pretty, and I wasn't all that into breeding them anyway. I wanted one with GoN, and one with Silver, which I got, and I think both of those will look just as good with the blue wings. Sucks for people who planned lineages with the red wings in mind and did all sorts of trading and so forth and now are stuck with dragons they wouldn't have wanted, though.

I got a S x GoN as well. I was hunting for a Silver pairing, but so far, no luck. If you'd like a 2G Avatar as a mate for your 2G, let me know and I'll toss you one once the madness is over. :)

This is mine, if you want to check for them being related.

I do not mind at all, I like both variants veeeery much! :)
I've been collecting Solstices so I can produce checkers with GoN, Gold, Pillow, Spring, Brute, Sunsong and probably Nhiostrife Wyvern later (got the one from Nhio in a trade would like to trade it for another one, though!). I do not think the little missing pink will affect my opinion of the checkers much, but that might be just me.

I ended up catching two Solstice x GoNs on the AP, but I decided to trade off one of them for something different. I already have an Avatar from my own dragons, so I'm set for a mate. Thanks for offering, though!

I'm looking for Silver x Solstice, too. I finally ended up breeding one of my own. I can breed a mate for it from my other Solstice. I'd take more if I could find them, but I haven't seen any in the AP, and the only trades were wanting things I couldn't get. For some reason, it's not a very popular pairing. I've seen way more Gold x Solstice, but I like Silver much better.

Well, now I'm glad I didn't breed them with Sunrises the way I had considered! :D Blue wings are OK by me; I love any reason to have more blue dragons, really.

I'm very disappointed, don't like the new colouring at all. I only just noticed, and it completely killed all my breeding plans. So all the Solstice collecting and trading was for nothing.

I like the blue wings but I'm a little disappointed with this surprise.
If it turns out that in a future it'll be possible to get breed ones with the original coloring I'll really glad.

On the up side, I think the new colour scheme looks even better paired with Golds than the originals, and those already looked great! :D
