Congratulations!Painting your first pet is always exciting, and baby gelerts are among the best looking baby pets in my book.
My first paint job was a white poogle I believe.

Congratulations! I wish I were as lucky as you!
Well, my first painted pet is a Tyrannian Uni from the lab, after years and years of saving. :(

I remember my first paint job; a purple kau. It had taken for ages to save the 28k for the purple paint brush. Oh how times have changed.

Congrats! The Baby Gelerts are lovely, nice choice! I remember painting my first pet, I painted my Shoyru Darigan, looking back it was a poor choice, there were far nicer Darigan Pets, but I loves him anyway :3

Congrats. I think my first painted pet was a Shadow Shoyru, if you don't count mutant ones.

But I remember a Baby Aisha being my first pricey painted one, and buying the brush from the Hidden Tower. I still have the Aisha despite her unfortunate name (ela_aisha).

Congratulations! :D

My first painted pet was a Christmas Bori. He had an absolutely atrocious name, so I eventually pounded him, but I remember being so proud when I got my hands on that paint brush....

Congratulations!

My first hand-painted pet was when I painted Autumn4Ears Cloud. I was very pleased with myself! She's been through 2 re-paintings since then.

Congratulations :D It's always an exciting process!

My first painted pet was a rainbow eyrie... in fact, that was Inu, my now Faerie draik. I don't remember how much I paid for the brush... this was way back when though, so geez XD Inu's been obviously morphed since then, but he's gone through several paint jobs as a draik too, so he's used to the paintbrush treatment xD

Wow, I didn't know baby gelerts looked that good! Congratz!

I think my first painted pet was my Shoyru, Nike. I painted her starry with a paint brush I won for 14K in an auction. Even 7 years ago 14K was a pretty good deal.

I'm not sure the species of the first pet I painted, but I do know the color was White. That was a cheap paintbrush.

If only I (and I suppose everyone else, lol) had had the foresight to buy the cheap paintbrushes. I'd be friggen loaded with nps right now lol. I'm still kicking myself for getting rid of a couple of Hypno Helmets that I'd had.

Congrats! I never realized baby gelerts had gotten so cute . First pet I painted by hand was my hissi, Aelusian. Shadow because it looks great on them. Paintbrush was 300K at the time.

Ooh. The new baby gelerts are a lot better than the old ones, I think. Very nice. :D Congrats.

Geez. I remember painting my first pet. A christmas lupe. Spent a whole 10k, which was incredibly hard for me to earn back in the day. XD I've never really enjoyed playing internet games.

Seems like you all like Baby Gelerts? Gnorbus are my favourite babies so far. ^^
