February Discussion Thread

I love the monkey dog's mouth. Did anyone else notice that the smile was edited to a smaller, more unsure type mouth? It is adorable!

I didn't realize it was edited, but I did notice it looked more unsure XD I love it though <3

Not sure about the horse Bio-Hazard, no one really seems to have an idea and those who do don't agree

But what sort of edit would you guys suggest for the monkey/rabbit? both work well enough with the normal lineart; and I believe the ram/sheep only got the edit of the horns because the horns are a lot harder to incorporate into the normal lineart than, say, a monkey tail. Also, I personally don't think rabbit ears would look all that great on a dog ;_;

I can guarantee that our artists are a bit more creative. They've done monkey like tails before, just look at the big cat PPS pets from a few years back. Horns seem harder to me. A different shaped tail for the rabbit, maybe a small forked tongue for the snake. It's not like they'd have to be gigantic changes, just enough so that they all look like the same time and effort went in to try. Not to say that these don't look like it, it's just that one line edit on one and no others is a bit... put offing.

As for the horse, my guess is a kestrel.

Rabbit and monkey, yes. It's a little hard to tell at first because of the tag, but you are correct.

[ElementalInsanity]

awesome , ya the tag did make it kinda hard but i got them right! woohoo, thats a first thanks for your help!

What's with all the complaining?
All I'm hearing from some people is complaint after complaint after complaint.
I don't see what's wrong with only one pet getting an edit, or etc.
I fail to see why people are BAAWWWWWing over this one dog having horns.
It's like complaining about why only the Wood Angel got wings in that litter.
WELL I GUESS IT'S JUST FAVORITISM BY THE ARTIST.
IT'S NOT FAIR.

On a brighter note,

is growing on me quickly, and I'm doing pretty well with the not missing outcomes. <3

I don't see why people are looking forward to edits really. There are twelve creatures on the zodiac, that would be a ridiculous amount of edits, and I dunno... I see lineart edits as a more... 'special' thing. If every dog had edits, then they would just turn less special in time, which with the V-Day dogs and the butterwolves and the bunnies... we are running close to that as it is. XD

Well as I said, I would have been okay with it if it hadn't been for them releasing the sheep with the edit first. Why edit only one (or a few) and not the rest? I could understand if they had done it especially for the rabbit (since it's the year of the rabbit) but not a random one.

Because edits take a LOT of time and perfecting. Doing them all is way too much to ask for. Be happy there are any edits at all. :I

On topic:
Lovely markings. <3

This was actually my trail of thought too. X3 I think that rabbit ears wouldn't look all that awesome on a dog, but that's just personal taste. I just think people are getting too spoiled used to lineart edits, kinda like with the PPS. XD I am just happy the ram had horns, and that the monkey is so gorgeous with those striking blue eyes. <3

I believe what they mean to say is that the sheep got a special edit while the others, so far, have not. It seems like a sort of bias towards one dog. That is all. I have to agree though, I hope my zodiac animal has something special other than the tag over the markings on its flank.

Ah but is it truly necessary for ALL of the zodiacs to have edits? Why do they need to have lineart edits to make them special individuals? I did consider the possibility of editing the lines to make them look like the animals they were meant to represent but that doesn't necessarily mean it would have looked good/non-creepy on this dog lineart if I did edit the lines. I made my decision based on my own artistic integrity that the linearts worked pretty well in favour of most of the animals. Plus it would have been next to impossible to attempt to edit the lines of all 12 considering I'm the only one who worked on this litter. XP
ANYWAY! ;D

I missed out on today's Yulynh PPS pony unfortunately. However, I'm excited to see the ones I did get grow into adults though, those secret messages are adorable. <33

This.
And besides- we've been heavy on the lineart edits already-
what about all the gorgeous butterwolves bouquetblu had for us this month? P:
Those edits on top of 12 more is crazy.
