I was around for the previous version of the Peophin (tolerably cute, more character, but flat...and it was hands-down my favorite species with Eyrie as second), so it's not technically due for a revamp, but it could well use another one. And yeah, the missing "gill fin" thing in various poses bothers me too.
I'm a little relieved, actually, because it doesn't tempt me whatsoever to paint my lovely Darigan Peophin!
Horsey pet + Electric (potentially my FAVORITE color if well done) = potential massive squeeage. But nope.
That mane...the nasty sea-puke MANE makes me want to stab my eyes out. The face plate doesn't do anything for me either, along with the general washed-out look. The sea-puke color is OK in small amounts, if it's the bright-colored...that's what makes it "Electric"...but some of it is VERY pukey-looking in some shadowy areas. The Eyrie isn't perfect, but the Peophin pales in comparison. To see what I mean:
