Equine Transformation Project - VOTING CLOSED

[Eclipseranch]

The demand for Equimagines has gone up already. I've been trying to find some of my missed unicorns for the past few days and no one is biting. (: Even if the transformation doesn't happen, this has been a big boost for old equines.

I've taken mine out of the trade groups until the change either goes down or doesn't. If they change, it's highly possible I'll keep them. If they don't, well, back into the trade groups they'll go, where they've been sitting untouched for years

my experience on here is that by far the dog has been and will always be seen as the most sought after species in general, irregardless of the artist demand for Malk pets went up when her retirement was announced also typical of the nature of the situation
don't think this kind of thing has much bearing on the transformation of the Equi art

Funny that's how all my new horses have been sitting as well. :/ In my trade group untouched since I put them there.

Odd, I've gotten much better offers and more often on my Yulnyh's than I've ever gotten for my Equimagine's.
I'm lucky if I trade the rare ones for uncommons, lol.


The change will definitely boost their popularity more, at least from me - there's so many designs I would love a lot more on Yulnyh's lines~

The dalmatian horses especially~ <3

seconded on the unpopularity of the equi lines
i adopted the last equi foals and i've only traded around 1 or 2 of them off and it's been like 2 year? Maybe more? Yet i've traded off all of my first yul horses : /

On the topic of the Arabian lines, isn't it unfair to people who paid real money for them? Is custom lineart for them out of the question? While it might somewhat defeat the point of the item compatability, the general consensus I feel from the thread is that people would be happier if the were more unique, items irrelevant. I'm sure some guest artists could be brought on to help if they were needed?
It just seems like custom lines for a few things people are really upset about, the Rainbowmane, Buckskin PPS, Roadkill PPS, etc, might help alleviate some of the stress for people.

Very much agreed!

I feel like I'd like the rainbowmane a lot more as the regular horses... Not sure why, I just like the newer lines more for the rainbowmane.

Agreed with all the above.

I hope if we have a revote for the PPS's--- It will be closed voting .. or at least more peaceful.

I have a headache.. ugh

The yes's appear to be the majority.. so the sooner we move on from this, the better...

This horse will look pretty cool I think..

still come to the same conclusion: recreating something that has already been created irregardless if "some" tracing was done in ancient history does not feel like the right thing to do

Yulyn I absolutely have been a huge fan of your art since day 1...there is no ?? how top of the line your art is but superimposing it on to someone Else's seems like repeating the same error in judgement and so far no one has written a solid remark to the contrary..that is my opinion any way

What do you mean 'some' tracing? CS rules are pretty specific, if you trace at all, or even heavily photo reference, you're breaking the rules. There's no reason staff artists should be able to if a regular user can't.

The lineart of the equamine horses was traced off of a real photo of a horse. That is the tracing issue.

That's my point entirely.

I personally own all of this pony set.
The PPS's I have no clue what they are going to do with.
I have to say that this guy really represents the fact that his time has gone and is about to change for the better so he can live another day:
