Rainbow Ogrin

No.

Though, to be fair, the majority of the replies here seem to be "it's okay", not just people yelling "OGRIN KILL IT RAR" like with the first three or so Ogrin threads that came up. :?

Yeah, I wasn't talking specficially about this thread, just any ogrin thread that comes up seems to have people re-stating their hatred for the species and nothing more :P

As for this colour, I think the darker rainbow is actually really nice, I don't think a bright rainbow would suit this pet.

I... don't really like it :| Especially not the super pale cream on its face and toes... *shudders*

And like Seerow, I want some proper Ogrin colours T_T

But hey, like Ziggy said, judge it on the colour, not the fact that its an Ogrin :shock:

Grah, I really think that dark purple they used messes it up completely. It divides the pet up too harshly. The transitions between colours could have been done better as well. Overall, pretty 'meh'.

I quite like it :) Ogrins have been growing on me recently. The purple hair looks neat, IMO. Orgins need some redraws pronto! :0

Non colourfills :P Ogrins have been getting too many colourfills and not enough redraw style ones (Faerie, Robot, Grey, Maraquan, etc.)

I have that on eBay right now. I will now pimp my eBay listings: my username on eBay is phoebemittens, too.

I really love the rich sexy purple of the mane, mohawk, tail, ear-tassels... hair. I love the hair. Very nice.

However, it's not enough to make me like the pet overall. Whilst the Baby Ogrin managed to make me like both the pet and the colour for about the only time ever, this has not pulled off the same trick. I find Rainbow pets a little garish and Ogrins ugly - and nothing about this example of either is changing my mind.

Looking at all released ogrin colours I like this one best I think. Somehow purple theme on tail, mane and er.. ears (?) comes over pretty nice. The only problem is - rest of the colours are pretty bright so it's a bit hard to luck at. Decent overall.

The purple tempts me, but no go. I still don't like the Ogrin and the color doesn't help. >_>

I for one want a nicely drawn Faerie Ogrin. And Maraquan, Royal, Grey, and Robot aren't bad second choices.

However, Rainbow is, in most cases, my least favorite color and having to wait so long for new Ogrin colors to come out, I'd have liked something better. More colorfills would be okay (escpially a nice White), but why did they have to do an eye-hurting Rainbow?

Yeah, some people here actually like this color, but as a die-hard Ogrin fan, I want something better. I know TNT has it in them, somewhere....possibly...maybe...

Im looking forward to seeing a maraquan ogrin -- they could implement that funky mohawk in some cool ways in an aquatic pet, in the very least it could detract from the garishness of it. It could make a very neat fin, maybe, if they extended it down the back of the ogrin -- sorta like the fin on this guy (<a href="http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/delaware2/ima ... ">click</a>) it could look very cool. Or they could make it into spines or something, but personally I'd rather see the fin...

I could definiatly see myself liking a maraquan ogrin if TNT didnt kill it completely LOL.

(whee I rambled, sorries... haha)

In a lot of rainbow pets the contrast with the purple to blue and then green (or however the rainbow goes xp) is extrememly harsh and then the red and orange and yellow just kind of blend.

In this its all pretty harsh. So I think it works. Yay

Though I'm generally not an Ogrin fan, I wouldn't mind if a labbie turned this, making two ogrin colors ones that I appreciate a bit (Shadow being the other). I like that the red doesn't start at it's face... I think the velvety purple accents are a lovely contrast to the cream of its face. I do wish the Green hadn't been left out, perhaps they could have made the stripes a bit less horizontal. I *DO* feel the dark/bold/harsh color combos are necessary. The Ogrin looks full and even slightly Busy as a flatfill, let alone with a rainbow on its hide. If they had done a faded/washed-out rainbow, the Stripes and other accessories on the Ogrin would have overpowered and choked out the rainbow. So all in all, whoever was told "here, make a Rainbow Ogrin", I think did a fairly good job. :)
