  1. I remember the pattern from marbles I had as a kid, the ones with leopard-like spots on them, and the choice of pattern makes sense on a feline species like the Aisha. While I think the colouring and pattern look nice on the ears and face, the pattern on the body look strange and made me think of Transparent, to me at first glance it made me think of a skeleton/bones... I think if they had gone with the spots on the legs.. that is, put those over the rest of the body (though not so much on the head and face) it would have looked nicer. This is not a nice Marble pet in my eyes. The Queen/Princess Amira outfit is gorgeous, but I do really wish, time and time again, that outfits would be broken into more separate pieces, such as here with the jewelry. The back legs and tail get separate pieces, the front legs and neck do not... Sigh.
  2. Happy New Year to all! January is my birthday month, so I`m naturally excited for that!
  3. Sent in my entries now, good luck everyone! Looking forward to seeing that people have come up with.
  4. Love the Kell/Dean outfit, I was so excited about the Supernatural-themed event a few years ago! The Pastel Wocky is cute, but quite bland. It just looks like a paler version of an ordinary Wocky.
  5. Congratulations to the other winners, and thanks very much to those who voted for my Mr. Tumnus, yay for fellow Narnia fans! Good luck to all in the next round!
  6. I read in the comment section on JellyNeo that this is based on an extinct type of penguin. which is a cool idea... I think the artist should have taken a second look at this and considered doing some tweaks or changes. I get that they`re basing it off a real-life animal, and want to be true to that, but... Yeah, I`m not really a fan of this Tyrannian Bruce. It`s mostly the ridiculous, over-the-top eyebrows. and the eyes that are so different from the regular Bruce. Though I don`t know how good it would have looked with the small, black eyes on this Bruce. Overall, I think Tyrannian as a colour is a very mixed bag, and this is one of them that falls flat for me I can`t tell what the bow is made of... Leather? Bark? Rope? Someone on JN also suggested that the bow should have been a bone, I love that idea! The outfit looks fantastic, though I don`t think we need more wizard/magician type outfits, this is another cosplay one, and the items can easily be used in other types of customizations, I especially love the cape/robe, it looks so regal!
  7. The Xandra outfit is really cool, I am enjoying these "cosplay" outfits! I feel like the Stealthy Xweetok is referencing a character or something, I`m not familiar with it if that is the case. The mask honestly looks like a cat, and with all the layers of clothing you can barely tell it`s supposed to be a Xweetok. I think the clothes look fine, it`s just a little much for my taste, I would have preferred something a bit more simple.
  8. Ooh, another Steampunk pet! I like that they gave this one a feminine look, as Usuls are percieved as "girly" pets. There`s lots of great detail here, I adore the that, though I think the spikes on one of the goggles is a bit much, I don`t understand the purpose of them, it must hurt the poor Usuls paws when they take the goggles off, lol. I like that you can see part of the pet through the outfit (like the face, paws and ears) as I prefer to be reminded that Steampunk pets aren`t machines or robots. Like others have mentioned, I too find the tail cover to be a strange choice, not sure if covering the tail completely would have been better, and leaving the tail with nothing would have looked too bland, so... middle ground, I guess? The Hannah outfit is really cute, I believe we already have a Hannahs Collectors Coat (or something) but cool to have an outfit for Usuls specifially.
  9. Lucielin Peppermint Pizza So cute, and so in-season, lol! This month I am of course very excited about the Advent Calendar, and Stocking Stufftacular!
  10. I felt inspired instantly - sent in my entry! When I saw the topic, I knew straight away which story I wanted to choose a character from. Looking forward to seeing the literary characters that will be represented in this round!
  11. Thanks so much to those who voted for me, and congratulations to the other winners!
  12. I think everyone did a good job, it was a difficult theme to work with! It`s always so interesting to see how we all solve these creative challenges differently,
  13. We are getting seriously spoiled with Vandagyre colours this year, this is amazing! At first glance, I was confused as to which colour the Spotted Vandagyre actually was, my immediate thought was Candy or Biscuit, as I know they already have Chocolate, lol. It just looks so food-like. Appearently it`s based on the Spotted Owl. It`s a really cute colour that will also work well with customization. The Toy Vandagyre is of course based on the Furby, which is hilarious and I love that they are basing Toy pets off real toys, so much more creative and fun than to just make them look shiny and plastic-y with screw holes. I love how furry and soft it looks, just not a fan of the face, it looks like it`s wearing a mask. The outfit is based on fan-art, Brightvale University! Looks great! Allround an absolutely fantastic pet day for Vandagyres, with no less than three colours counting Zombie. Amazing! Thank you, TNT!
  14. You can only submit one entry. You are however free to make alternative entries which can be posted/showed off in the Backstage: Alternative Entries thread. So you can make several entries if you want, but only one can be submitted in the voting contest. Have fun, and good luck! Link:
  15. The Pastel Pteri is so pretty, I love that they based it on a real bird! It`s really cute and colourful, at the same time it feels strange to see all the individual feathers - we`re used to the much more simplistic design. From JellyNeo: "It looks like the inspiration for this colour was suggested by user parody_ham: the Coracias caudatus, or lilac-hissied roller" The phoenix outfit is really cool as well! Great pet day for Pteris this year!
  16. Okay... I sent in my entry now. Not sure if I`m lazy or brilliant, lol! I just couldn`t think of anything, so after a lot of headscratching and messing around on DTI, this is what I came up with... Very excited to see how everyone has solved this challenge!
  17. Congratulations to the winners, and thank you to those who voted for me, I was very pleased with my entry!
  18. These are all so cool, I like that we all used different species of Neopets! Well done, everyone and good luck!
  19. Wow! Every year I look so much forward to seeing what new colour(s) Vandagyre will get, and it`s such a rare treat for a pet to get a new colour outside of their pet day. Zombie is a fitting choice considering Halloween was yesterday. The lack of clothing is slightly disappointing, considering deluxe paint brush clothing is a nice perk of owning pets in certain colours, but it`s not unique, several other Zombie pets are naked. With that said, it leaves more room to properly show off the pet, and there is fantastic detail on the Zombie Vandagyre, the artist really went all out on this one! The skull splitting open, the bone peeking out from the wings and on the tail, plus the whole pet just looking all gross and rotten. Fantastic job! My immediate reaction upon seeing this was "Wow! I really like it, but the feathers around the eyes look like leaves!" lol But seriously, great job on this one, and I look forward to seeing another colour and a new outfit on Vandagyre Day, these cute things need more stuff to wear!
  20. This month I am looking forward to Vandagyre Day (and we`re even treated to an extra colour early, yay!) Neopets Birthday and Xweetok Day! This was too cute not to share! Lucielin Pea and Ham Baby Food
  21. I had some fun looking for the Trick-Or-Treat locations, I found the ones at The Healing Springs, Wanderer Camp and Governor`s Mansion, then went on JN to find the list, lol.
  22. The Candy Corn Korbat is so cute! Candy Corn is such an iconic American candy, so it`s nice to see an homage to it in the Candy colour. The outfit is great too, especially the wings!
  23. I think this will be a very interesting round. Looking forward to seeing all the skeletons, lol. I wonder if we will see a variety of Neopets, or if several people end up choosing the same one. Edit: Just sent in my entry, it was so fun to mess around on DTI and came up with something in the end I was very pleased with!
  24. Not sure what species still need the Maraquan colour, but which Neopet do you feel would make a nice squid in Maraquan form?
  25. The Maraquan Jetsam looks fantastic, so creative and unique! It`s based on a fan/user-made design, I love it! Royal Jetsams would have been amazing, but this is great too! I wonder if we will get to see Maraquan versions of the other seacreatures in the future, I want a Maraquan Peophin! The outfit is really cool too, I battle the Jetsam Ace in the Cosmic Dome every day.
