And now for the people who are hired:

Manager: [A.V.] - not just because she was the only applicant. She is experienced and friendly, and believe that she will be a great manager :]

Full-Time Colorist: PuddleInk - although he said he preferred part time, i couldn't help but hire him as full-time >.>;; I think he did a wonderful job with his edited fox, while still keeping it in theme with the shop (the pearls don't HAVE to be strung together, they could be stuck onto the fox's fur with sticky sap or something) :] And his other examples had great color combinations and balance :]

Part-Time Colorists (I decided to hire two to lighten the workload and because two really caught my eye razz ) :
Quiftan: While his examples were simple in patterns, the colors really struck a chord with me. And sometimes, simple is best. They were beautifully made, and I am a complete sucker for glowing markings like the ones on the last fox <3
Satin Doilee: Despite her having no experience as a colorist on Gaia, she did a great job with her fox-versions of wildlife. I especially liked the last one biggrin They were vibrant and clearly resembled the creatures she wanted to represent biggrin


If anyone wishes for me to give them constructive criticism on their applications, please send a pm to Evelastina.

Also: All colorist applicants may send a pm to Evelastina if they want to give their examples to anyone in the form of a gram. Just send me plushie links and usernames and i will cert them on a gram cert and both post them in-thread, and pm them to the recipients.
