At last we've reached the final rats!

Part 7 rats )

And those are the Part 7 moods! The asterisk by Nostalgic is because my original plan (and as is still reflected in the custom mood theme I have set up for myself), I was just going to use one of the options from Geeky, Nerdy, and Dorky; they cover a lot of the same ground, it's fine! Only then, uh. My Fancy Rats got approved to be an official Dreamwidth site-supported mood theme?! So I had to come up with some alternate versions that didn't involve other peoples' IP in a hurry 😂 Anyway, it was just in the latest site code tour, so it'll be going live real soon now (along with some jellyfish I made for funsies), so like. Keep an eye out for that in the next site update!

All of that means that I'm going to go ahead and share my Part 8 moods early; I was originally going to wait until the final break, just to keep things consistent, but uh. Well. With any luck, the moods will be live for everyone by then anyway, so why wait?

Part 8 rats )

I think that's all I have to say for these moods right now; I'm super looking forward to them going live!

As a reminder, anyone who wants to is welcome to use any of them as icons, just remember to credit me somewhere. I'm planning to put up a formal download link for the whole mood theme, alternate versions included, after Part 8 is officially over. Yay, rats! Yay, Dreamwidth! Yaaaaay!

Skipping the fluff this week and getting right to the moods.

This week's moods are: Guilty, Hot, Hungry

The minimal moods for this week are: Determined, Devious, Energetic

Of this set, I feel like Guilty is one that's a little more difficult for people making original art. When pulling from a fandom, you can probably think of a time when your subject felt (or should have felt) guilty about something, and go with that! Original art lacks that context, so you have to rely more on conveying the emotion directly through expressions/body language and/or props. But I could be wrong! Other people working on original art themes may be able to come up with something a lot easier than I did!

Hot and Hungry, by contrast, seem pretty straightforward, especially for original art. People working with a fandom may have a tougher time finding images to work with—though if your fandom had a beach episode or a trip to a restaurant, you're probably all set!

What do you think? Are you working off of a fandom, or with original art? What about making your own fanart? Do you think you'll have a hard time with any of these moods, or do you expect them to come easily? Somewhere in between? Let's talk about it!
