dragoncaversThis is the long-promised post for showing off all those lovely even-gen projects you've been working on!
I've mentioned/shown off this one before: Foundation: Tan Ridgewing x (Sequential) Valentines, which is necessarily on pause until the next Valentine release. (And the next, and the next...)
Foundation: Tan Ridgewing x Royal Blue Ridgewing checker, which started from a pair of lucky AP finds! I would like to get a M/F set of Tan offspring to complete the lineage; right now I only have a purple offspring set.
More a promissory note toward a lineage than an actual project, right now, but I eventually want to do something with Harvest x Gold. I've got an IOU from someone for a Gold from Harvest, but who knows if that will ever produce anything; meanwhile, I think I now have a 2nd-gen Harvest that would let me make a checker rather than a pyramid; I should try to find it.
Oh, and I did create a Brimstone x Harvest mate to fill the gap, too, so that's another option I may try.
Foundation: Winter Magi x Pink was a handy way to get more Pinks while experimenting with non-checker/Foundation-checker-only lineage patterns.
Dark Ember Magic, an irregular Ember x Magi checker. One of my first projects, and I'm still very proud of it!
Imperial Fleshcrowne x Spotted Greenwing checker: I wanted to do something relatively low-key, with breeds that aren't hard to acquire (recent frustrations notwithstanding). Plus, I think the Imperials are really cute, so I wanted the "dancing" male to have a chance to strut his stuff! I didn't consciously realise it when I started, but their eggs are almost perfect inverses of each other; I've had to do double-checks after breeding to see which was produced! :D
Sunsong x Moonstone Pyramid-Foundation Checker - another one that started with a lucky AP find!
Purebred Red Dorsal. Can't go any further, so this one's done. (Occasionally I still breed them, for trade fodder.)
White x Sweetling checker - can hardly wait to make a Valentine baby, come February!
And a few of mum's:
Three-breed checker: Tsunami, Silver, Verdigris Copper.
Pygmy checker: male Darkmysts & female Seawyrms.
Moonstone x Nebula checker.
Thunder x Electric checker.
"Purebred" Bluna from male Skywings & female Waters.
Pyramid from Silver x Royal Blue (or see the fail offspring that's further along)!
Silver x Royal Blue checker.
(Half of a) Complicated interwoven Moonstone & Swallowtail thing.
Purebred Verdigris Copper - mate needed (or lower gens to build a mate); will happily do a bloodswap!
Epic Bluna!
Most of these we're willing to take requests for offspring, and contributions are (almost) always welcome, too. (There are some that aren't even listed here because they haven't gone beyond the first breedings; for instance, my massive collection of 2nd-gen Stripes from Christmas breeds - every one so far except Holly - that will eventually become a huge even-gen lineage.)
Share yours below! Links are fine, but pictures/screencaps are also welcome! (I wanted to screencap some of mine, but there're just so many! It overwhelms my excessively rudimentary imagemaking skills.)

Date: 2013-09-24 02:35 pm (UTC)I have to wait three hours before accepting, since I only have room for two eggs right now.
I would love to bred those you (and in most cases I have enough dragons to try until I get the right egg~), so if you want to change the transfer link for a trade link meanwhile so I could five them to you today :)
Last edit: I used the spots I have right now to bred and so far I got you the GW x Winter Magia, the Tan Ridgewing x Arsani, the Heartseeker x Royal Crimson and a Greenwings from Fleshcrowne x Greenwing~
I'll send you a pm with the teleport link ^_^
