Maractite is quite nice, but eventide had an odd shading in the face. The lighter area makes it look like the face is really fat and bloated :D

Maractite: The markings are very well thought out and conform with the body nicely, but I feel like the bow makes this a tad too busy. Leaving it mostly solid with only one or two markings and maybe making it the same shade as the back would have helped it stand out more. Still, bows are removable, so not a deal breaker.

Eventide: Grizzegrijn is right, we haven't seen that type of facial shading before. Personally I like how chubby it makes them look, but that's just me. I don't, however, like the shading on the underbelly. The line just represents a change in color, so why is it shaded as if there's an indent there? Other than that, the colors look decent enough and the artist did make sure everything was symmetrical.

Eventide bugs me. :( The facial shading is really nice, but the straight gradient change on the belly ruins the effect. This would be a good one to dress up a little, just enough to show the colors but also to hide the straight lines.
