Description
Thank you all for entering the contest. I was so happy to see all of the amazing entries. Please Read the journal below to see the winners and a surprise for everyone who participated.MYO KURUXU WINNERS(Read the whole thing so you don't miss out on a surprise for everyone)
Oh my goodness there are so many amazing Kuruxu! The cool thing is that each Kuruxu is so different and unique from each other. I am especially happy to tell you that everyone followed the species guidelines. Yay! So now you should make more art of your Kuruxu, give them a name and an elemental affinity too.
You should share the art of your Kuruxu on SugarSugarGalaxy for everyone to see. I think I've fixed the submission glitch, so you should be able to submit to the group now.
I'm going to be posting an art prompt in SugarSugarGalaxy to inspire you in drawing your Kuruxu. I am also going to be posting a reference on the kinds of Dwellings that Kuruxu live in, to help flesh them out. If you have questions just ask. Your questions will help me develop a more deep and meaningful species.
Honestly I have a strong urge to draw all of the Kuruxu, but there are so many I don't think I'll be able to compl
This Contest is Closed
I would like to invite you all to participate in this contest! For this contest you get to design and draw your own Kuruxu. Please check out the guide above. (These are mountain dwelling Kuruxu)
(Update) I made a group for the Kuruxu and my other original species. Join the group, pick an elemental affinity, and sometime I'll update it with information about the world of SugarSugarGalaxy, that they live in. You can also help flesh it out by creating art and stories of you Kuruxu.
Everyone who enters will keep their design as an official Kuruxu!

Can I Sell My Design After the Contest?
No you can't sell it, but you can trade it.
Can I Make Lots of Kuruxu to Sell?
No, this is a closed species, and I would be deeply hurt if you were to claim the species as your own, and make adoptable out of it. This contest is unusual, because I am basically opening up the species so everyone can make one of their own. Its like a gift. Please be kind, and remember that it is hard to come up with a new species.

I have a question about their faces. It's said that it's made out of smooth carved bone. So is it kind of in a way like the cubone? The skull isn't actually a part of their body but acts like a helmet? It's not something they're born with but they're never if not very rarely seen without it.
π: 0 β©: 1
It does resemble cubone, but Kuruxu are born with the boney faces. The bone face is not their skull though. They have a skull, and the bone face is a calcification on the surface of the skin. When they are babies they have a bump on the nose which resembles a beak, but that disappears as they mature. Its like an egg tooth and they use it to break out of the egg. Adults will often smash their heads together, so its good to have the extra protection. I think there is a dinosaur that has a bony scalp that was used in the same way.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh yeah there is that dino with the really thick skull and rams into other dinos. I think I understand what you're saying, the ram dino (can't remember what it's called) isn't that great of an example because the part it used for bashing is actually it's skull, but the ankylosaurus that's covered in osteoderms would work. Osteoderms are basically big plates of bone embedded in the skin that act like a kind of armour.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, it is kind of like the big plate armor of an ankylosaurus.
