Well now that these are officially out I think it's safe to talk about them. These designs are incredibly weird and I still don't know if I like them very much. I get they're supposed to look like Arceus and their main attributes are obstructed (throat and arms), but I dunno man
@dayofpi My biggest (and honestly only) problem with its design are the way its fur transitions to leaves on its arms. It looks so flat and unnatural, like it just put some wrist sleeves on lmao. I love your redesign so much how it incorporates the sticks and the orange more too 👌
And last, but not least, we have Zorua! Just like it's evo, the differences they made aren't too major, but they certainly did not have to be to be great. On top of that, it's a normal/ghost type, a brand new combo we haven't seen yet! One of the best variants for sure
Qwilfish got some much needed love! The original concept for Qwilfish isn't much to write home about, I mean it really is just a puffer fish. However, the way they spruced up its design is nice and effective. The q on its tail is a little cheesy, but also kind of charming
Here comes Goodra, another one I'm torn on. Like I said with Sliggoo, I really think they could've done so much more with this line using the concept they already did here. It's still Goodra at the end of the day and the way it hides in its shell is very cute so I still like it
I'm a big fan of what they did with Arcanine here. The black and redish-orange work very well together and the overall shapes used convey the elegance and harshness of Arcanine perfectly 👌 Still the big lovable dog it's always been!
Been staying busy, but let's wrap these up while I have the chance. I think I like this Electrode a lot more than the original honestly. The textures are appealing and it's very expressive (though this has always been the case)! I especially love how I drew it here too ☺️
