Color suggestions for each raptor:
Lil’ Tika – Light green with darker green details and gold armor with ivory or off white tusks/horns
(I chose to make Lil’ Tika. I went with an olive green for the darker skin details, but I think it may look better with a more generic darker shade of green)
Anklerender – Light blue with darker blue details and charcoal armor with lighter gray details and off white tusks/horns
Footslasher – Brown with darker brown details and gold armor with lighter gold details and ivory tusks/horns
Kneebiter – Purple with deeper purple details and moss green armor with off white tusks/horns
Shinchomper – Blood red with dark purple details and gray armor with black horns/tusks
Toenibbler – Beige with tan details and brown armor with black horns/tusks
