Island Ogrin

I kind of like the colours, though it looks too cluttered :/ The beaten pose is great, once more!

You're right about it being too cluttered, something the ogrin has as an inherent fault even without the island markings. Even the flowers on the poor thing's head are too busy, not to mention they clash horribly with the deep yellow/tan hyrbid of the mane. Unless neopets manages to wow us with a redrawn sometime, I don't think I'm ever going to like an ogrin. Heck, I don't even like the name. I'm glad they're on Rachel's half of the adoption thread and not mine!

Thanks Tiel for the lovely set!

The only good orgin is an orgin that's been beaten within an inch of it's life














and thrown in a pit of starving rabid Yurbles.

Grr, once more with the Ogrin hatred :(

True, it is a cluttered and I think it would have been better if they'd replaced the stripes with the white markings, but I like it anyway. Island is one of my favorite colors and Ogrins are currently my favorite species, so I like this by default. If my labs nice and turns my Ogrin lab pet into this, I'll be more then pleased to keep it.

They should've made the regular stripes white and wavy and got rid of the other ones, cause there's definitely too many things on his body o_o

Like every Ogrin ever - the basic design is cluttered, an accessory-heavy colour like Island (or, God forbid, Royal) isn't going to help any...

I must admit the colours look a little muddy and grey to me, but that might just be the influence of my general Ogrin-hate.

Seems TNT's artist couldn't make up their minds just what color the head was suppose to be primarily. It's white with tan markings in the close attack pose (and a couple of others), but otherwise tan with white markings. It'd be nice if they'd just realize that there's nothing they can do and get rid of the pet...replace it with the lutari...something!

ew.um.no.



Ogrins are not what I like, if I wanted a tiny giraffeorse with makeup on I would've gone to my local medical research centre.

Cluttered. As always. Is not redeemed in the slightest.

I really don't like the colour. It's like a mix of mold and crusty mustard. Bleh. I like the flowers, and I always appreciate the bracelet/anklet dealies on island pets, but I can't get past the icky colour. (Leaving aside the fact that it's an <i>Ogrin</i>, of course.)

I kinda like the cluttering. Then again I have a cluttery personality (and desk too).

The number of color-patterned pets with actual consistent coloring is slim.

True, but at least it's not that obvious.

The colour's nice for the orign, but it would look better if the species didn't have those stripes. I like the island markings they gave it, but with the stripes, it just looks way too cluttered. But that's a problem to the species in general anyways. ;)

At least the artist put some effort into it. :)

Well we always had a mold problem with our house in Cuba. Maybe it was the humidity or the warm temperature. (likewise we have a similar problem in SC during the summer >_<) Given that, the moldly colour suites a tropical colour like Island. :P [/joke]

Seriously though, I like the colour because it's not another tan colour like you see on almost all the other Island pets. But maybe it's just the orgin trying to be unique again (and failing).
