Darigan Gelert

Post by Trick »

This guy just popped up on the servers =D

Image Image Image

All poses.

My initial reaction? Love it! Later reaction? Circle/happy pose hate =( The quality of these poses is so far below the others and of course there is the issue of the missing back leg.

Redo the circle and happy poses tnt to make it look like the rest of the poses and I am so getting one. Meh, I hate it when they make a pet I love with a circle/happy pose I hate ><

Is it me or does the face look a bit...Disney-ish? (Not that that's a bad thing..)

Oh wow it's a redraw!

By which I mean, it's not.

EWWW tell me it's a joke!
Besides it looks more Halloween-y than Darigan-y to me.
And I guess this means the Mutant Gelert won't be released :(

Really fun idea...really badly drawn. It's way, WAY too cartoony. They can do so much better.

*hugs her grey gelert*

As Cheese said, it's not a redraw.

That mentioned, it's not THAT bad. It's a little... plain. I dunno, after looking at and lusting after Darigan Bori, Peophins, and Zafaras, this one falls reallly short.

No, it's not hideous, but it's very disappointing.

It looks like an evil version of Pluto.

Does it only have three legs in the circle pose because it's a mutated pet, or is it just a weird faux redraw with the missing leg as an oversight?

I really hope for the mutant gelert.

Nope, not my cup of cake, the Darigan Gelert.. It looks like traced over the vampire (haloween) gelert?

I don't like different sized in poses, plus the wings seem a little odd.

Not bad though, just not my cup of cake.;)

Yeah I don't really like it overall. The body's not bad, but could have been better, but the face really needs some work. The eyes in the happy and circle poses look really flat. Like someone said, it looks like pluto.

Not a great darigan, imo.

Small wings: Image

Maybe it's a special power o_o Or the artist just messed up.

I like the way this is drawn =/ I like when thing's are overly cartoony and look like pluto- if paintbrushes weren't out of my league I'd contemplate getting this.

I mean, sure it's got some problems, but I like it when pets have strange problems, I'm weird like that.

Awww, no! So awkward and clumsy-looking - in the happy pose, its head is held so far back it much be close to choking itself. At least it's not purple, I suppose.


It'll be quite good... when it gets revamped in 2 year's time. :|

*huggles the unloved gelert* I do rather like it, though having looked at it more closely the circle and happy poses bug me compared to the rest of the pet - they don't look nearly as well drawn :/ Compare:

Left gelert owns the right gelert and I guess there isn't much chance of them tweaking the circle and happy pose. Poo.


<off topic>When people repost new pet colours found here on other forums could they please give the proper credit to neocolours, it might just be me being quirky but I get angsty about no credit and I want people to know NC is back in action.</off topic>

Errr... Eh.

Looks more Halloweeny to me. o0; I'd say it's average at best.
