I've been planning on creating a dream for Roleplaying Shard on Furcadia for quite some time. Though my free time is limited due to work and is spread out over various pursuits, I have managed to create a skin as well as edit some patches and an older dream to get started. I thought I would share some screencaps of the work done thus far.
Due bear in mind that I am not a graphic artist and mainly edit things others have done for my patches and skins. I do not mean to step on anyone's toes by doing so.
Anyway, this skin may need a few buttons changed especially now after Furcadia just updated on me:

I am actually using an edited version of an older Forest dream I created some years ago. In its original form it looked much like this:

With the recoloring of patches to make it more how I would imagine Dardunah's forests to look it now appears as:

I also did some quick edits to some default creature patches to make them appear as suthra: (Furcadia has birds and draconic creature items.)

The spider changes color using animation to give it more a 'glowing' feel. Note also that a default termite mound from a desert patch has been edited to look more crystalline.

Finally, with the newest update Furcadia added in Effect overlays that allow smoke, fire, rain etc. to cover other things in your dreams. Using a couple default effects I was able to add in an animated vent for a crystal volcano where Janah can explore:

I'm looking forward to using this dream when I have some things wrapped up and ready to go. I hope it inspires others here to look into using nontraditional mediums like Furcadia to play Shard.
As we say in Furcadia, "Happy Dreaming!"
