Melo Redraw?

Pets


Sketch!

The Melo is the only remaining pet from the old art. The art itself is three years old, and has many proportion flaws.

An update would consist of:
- all new colorations occurring on the new melo base
- old lineart can be submitted for two months past the revamp completion without requiring Dawn Crystal
- existing customs have a 6-month period to convert to the new base for free
- old and new can breed together fine with LBC, where old x old = old, but old x new = new, as with all other revamps we've done

A revamp would take 1-3 months for us to complete as it is. Above is the sketch we have for our redraw melo. It is trying to be as close to the original melo proportion-wise as possible, while trying to fix some of the glaring errors on the original.

After that comes the lineart, then we start recoloring all the old colorations onto the new lineart. (: There are two ways we can go forward from here.


What should we do about the melo?
Yeah, let's revamp it
No change at all, keep the old one

So, yeah. What do you want?

BTW, you can redline the sketch if you want.

Here's something a bunch of people on the forums did

I am not liking the face, at all. But, for the life of me, I can't figure out why. I think it's the muzzle. It looks lopsided.

I really don't like this sketch myself. It looks worse than the old art. :/

The head does look a bit... crushed. And the paws look too small. All in all its a good sketch but I like the old one better. Aywas is getting to be like a completely different site with all the revamps and new art...

Uh..does anyone notice that it's the same thing. :c well almost. Same pose, everything. Don't really care if it's changed, but if EVERYONE wants the new lineart there's going to be a line that stretches down the entire ay world. Several times.

Also, could you make the body itself a bit bigger? Its head looks too big, kind of. o_o

Mmm the only glaring error I see with the sketch is that back leg.. It's driving me nuts! I'm working on a red line for that XD

Ugh. I'm not going to vote because I don't really like it right now, but the fact you can breed new to old is kind of okay.

^ Agreed. And I like the old ears better.

Yeah, now that you mention it, the head is a little bit too big for its body. D: Maybe that's what's bugging me along with the muzzle. I can also see that the legs aren't quite right. Gah, I wish I could redline. ;;
