Christmas Ogrin

Well, it could have been a lot worse. I read Christmas ogrin and thought "Oh God! They've gone and pulled another eyrie disaster or they've gone and dressed it up." This is rather nice really. For some reason it doesn't look nearly as busy to me as the basic colored ogrins. Probably because the stripes are on slightly darker than the back. Aside from the baubles, it looks nice and would have made a nice green.

I don't mind it. I'm not a fan of Christmas or Ogrins. But I like the baubles, and I'm glad it doesn't have any kind of ridiculous wreath accessories. I think they ought to have used a richer shade of brown, but the color is completely inoffensive to me. Sure, it's boring. But I can't find anything wrong with it.

And don't you see, if we wait another year for a redraw (what's two years compared to infinity really?) it will be extra special and meaningful... yeah.
WTF is that item?

Anyways, when I first saw it in the news, I, too, thought it was Island. Does TNT WANT us to hate this species or something?

lol, by looking at the Neopets Calendar animation it shows how bad they could have made it.

If you look at the Ogrin's Circle pose, it kind-of seems like it's eyes are crossed.

Oh look, they lighted the dark green on the last release, how nice. Now it looks better than the first pic from the servers :)

So true, but I still don't understand why they do great with the X-mas petpets. It seems like the artists for pets and petpets are very "different" and "separated" departments :|

I have to agree that it isn't tacky and overly done as some of the other christmas pets which is good. Though to me it just doesn't give that christmas feel. To me its more islandish feel to it. I mean they could of done something really nice without over doing it. Look at the christmas peophin..very simple, has a christmas feel and very pretty. Poor ogrin, they could of defently used a good redraw. **pats the ogrin** Maybe they'll pull a xweetok and give us a redraw a few days later...maybe.

I don't understand why so many dislike the poor ogrin. I think it's adorable :3.

I find this color quite attractive on the Ogrin. It's not too tacky with a million ugly accessories, and I like the brown and the stripes. I did hope for a redraw, but I guess Tnt had to do the ogrin day colors at the last minute....I dunno. I give this 7.5/10

After seeing the rather tacky Ogrin in the animation for Ogrin day, the one they actually gave us looks much better.

I don't know I thought the animation one was rather cute, and reindeer horns would probably have actually worked on this pet...

This pet doesn't exist and that plushie is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen.

There's far too much brown and the ornaments look stupid.

The colour itself would be great if the pet weren't so gaudy without the trappings.
