Thank you! And I love my unicorns, I would hate to see them changed! I really hope this doesn't happen, so many people would bbe dissapointed.


I like the unicorns that I have as well, but who knows; yulynh's idea for them might end up being more popular.

It's a possibility, I agree, but still. I spend ages looking for them so I can get them specifically. I don't hoar, or whatever, but I just don't want them changed!

I think you should change the ponies, leave the PPS, and leave the horses. I'm not sure about my opinion of the drafts yet. And I personally like how the Equimagine line arts look and how they appear to move and look a bit more real. The new line arts look less alive and more like the horses are dead

~Hyena.~

The rarities/dates will not change. The only difference will be their appearance.

Thank you <3

If you disagree that's ok, but were all allowed opinions here.


Whether or not you care if it was traced, art infringement is serious, and it's something that can get CS in trouble, or shut down.

Personally, I would love seeing all the designs go to Yulyhn's line art. They're a lot more fleshed out and realistic. As well as the fact that the new draft lines are positively lovely. In long run, the same designs on Equi's horses are going to stay.


The designs don't look right on ylu's. It looks flat and forced. The positions of equi's are in a 3/4 running not side so the designs were meant for 3/4 running. It just doesn't look right

No... :c The old linearts are my absolutely most favorite linearts. I love how they look, and love getting them, it'd feel so plain without them.

I believe Yulynh did a great job on our new horse linearts, but I really, really just adore the old ones, and I think they should stay where they are as a peace of CS history.

What about users who specifically hunt down Equimagine horses for hoards or simply because they adore the linearts? All that work would be flushed down the toilet.

Yes! I can't seem to put it any better with the real part of equi's

    I'm afraid I don't see how those lines are 3/4. Running, yes, but not 3/4. We get no more chest with hers than we do with Yul's.

Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?

How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

If anything, I do think the drafts need an update - the new design is much more appealing.

Like said before, I really do like the ponies as they are, but if it puts cs in the position of possible art theft, I don't think it's worth taking that risk. *only speaking out of what I know*

I wish I could have my cake and eat it too. But if the new ones are released in addition to the old ones, it would cause ample trading confusion I'm sure.

This. I agree that the designs were made for the lines, and putting them on the new lines doesn't (for the ones shown) and won't (for the ones not shown) look right.
(whether or not it's "3/4" who cares, the old horses are running and the designs were made for that. Putting them on standing lines won't look right.)
