This is now over! I have decided on Jack's new official design.
I will update the post with his updated design once a proper reference is made for him.
So this is something I've been debating doing for a while, and finally decided to do it.
First off let's get one thing clear:
This is just to see what ideas people have for revamping his design. Chances are, there will not be a definitive winner unless I really like their revamp idea that much. However, that doesn't mean there won't be prizes. They'll be listed below.
So I couldn't help but notice that compared to the rest of the deities of my characters' universe, Jack seemed rather...plain, in comparison. I'll add links to some of the other deities below for comparison.
This is his current design, but I'm considering revamping him. I still haven't decided if I'm going to, but if I do, I want to have a couple ideas.

Helena, Alexandria, Giovanni, Enigma, and Tanith are the other five deities.
Chances are there won't be a definitive winner, but there will be a participation prize, and if I do decide to revamp Jack and I use parts of your redesign for design inspiration, you will get an additional bonus. The participation prize will be a wishlist pet of yours, though nothing above an uncommon. If I don't have any wishlist pets of yours, you will instead get 1 or 2 C$ depending on how many entries this contest gets. The bonus for me using parts of your design in a revamp of Jack would be additional wishlist pets, possibly a rare or two if I have any on your wishlist, and/or wishlist items and C$.
Onto the rules ~
Line art rules / general rules -
- Do not remove my signature under any circumstances. If it is no longer visible due to a change in background color or is otherwise covered, move it and/or change its color to make it visible.
- Don't color in your own characters using the line art, as it is for a competition, not for reference purposes. [However, I may make it an editable later]
- Please add me to your entry when you're done so that I can see his design without wings and hair and other such stuff like that.
Design rules / notes of importance -
- DO NOT CHANGE HIS DESIGN TO THE POINT IT'S UNRECOGNIZABLE AS JACK.
- PLEASE keep the black / dark grey base and keep some kind of contrasting white marking.
- Keep the diamond somewhere in his design.
- Please don't change the eyes too much, as in keep the general color and don't swap the sides they're on. You may add to it, but please keep the purple and grey/silver and make sure the purple is his right eye and the grey/silver is his left [i.e. the way they are now]. They're like that for a reason.
- Please don't add items, accessories, or any other line edits/mutations. I can take care of all that later.
- Keep in mind that he does in fact have children and grandchildren, so if possible check his design against theirs to make sure they at least look somewhat related.
- Please don't use bright or neon colors.
- Do not remove his wings or hair. [You can of course hide the layers temporarily to see the base more clearly, but remember to add them back in when you're done.]
- If it helps anything, his theme song is When You're Evil by the band Voltaire. It might help if you need inspiration ^^ I can also write out a bit more about his personality and backstory if it helps, just ask ^^

-- Karmen, Angelica, and Nero are his grandchildren [Elizabeth is their mother, Theodore is their father]
