Saxen Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 It's the Shenkuu Lunar Festival, let's celebrate! Draiks can now be painted Eventide! Items Battlepedia Quote
Spritzie Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I didn't think Eventide would be released for Draiks so quickly. It's gorgeous! :D I'm completely tempted to save for another Draik now. (And hopefully get a FFQ) Quote
GomamonX Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 eventide loooks even good on a draik (i wonder if they would put the krawk with that collor soon) Quote
Saxen Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 I really really like it even though I didn't like the colour when it came out XD Still think it's not that customisable though... Quote
Crimson Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 And of course, another <a href="http://battlepedia.thedailyneopets.com/index.php/weapon/viewweap/2784">overpriced shield</a>. xD I really wish it would block more as a cove weapon as it is currently even weaker than the Hidden Tower shields. The draik looks awesome, though. :D Quote
Lady Lyuba Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Happy Shenkuu Lunar Festival/Chinese New Year! Great idea to release a Draik in Eventide, since it's now the year of the Dragon. Though I'm a little disappointed that there are no new colours for the Kazeriu, I do like how Eventide looks on the Draik. :) Kinda wish there'd be a Lunar festival related Caption Contest, Art Gallery and Poems. :P Not enough! Still though, a mysterious cave? Faerie caverns...or is there a new mysterious cave somewhere in Shenkuu? Quote
manniqueen Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 OMG. Eventide draik is everything I dreamt of. I should see how much the paintbrush is though..... Quote
hrtbrk Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Still though, a mysterious cave? Faerie caverns...or is there a new mysterious cave somewhere in Shenkuu? It will be restocking until they run out at the Smugglers Cove! :) Quote
bataclops Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Bet some people will have a new dream pet with this one. Very pretty indeed! Quote
GuardianAwesome Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I like how there's more of the starry part than there is on the Aisha, which in my opinion is the best feature of the color. But, like others have said, it would be really hard to customize. Quote
lilshadowdweller Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 The Draik is so pretty! It's weird, I was thinking about a Eventide Draik today! I may have really wanted one. I bet it's a new dreamie. But I still prefer my Maraquan Draik over it. It is tempting to make another one...o_O Well, I never made the first one, lol..>_< Quote
nbbug132 Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I am so in love with the Eventide color! It's so pretty. Quote
Rune Valentine Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I'm glad they released an Eventide Draik, unfortunately now maybe the MP prices (which have been dropping dramatically in the last weeks) might go up again. I love the new colour, but just today I was seeing MPs down to 7mil *sigh* Quote
Nataluna Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 bleh with draik prices, the cheapest way to to do it it the pirate draik egg way, but i've got the perfect name.. not sure how long i can wait (haven't yet got the nps, but if i sell everything i possibly could) i like the eventide draik, but i hope they release a starlight color in future, i really like the top half :P and i'm glad they did something for lunar new year, at about 10am NST i was feeling a bit sad about it.. (what i was hoping for was gift box capsules, fingers crossed they are out tomorrow) Quote
Zorse Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I love it!!! :D I'm so tempted to use my FFQ for it, but since it's considered a basic color I'm hoping the price will go down sometime within the next year Quote
Saxen Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 For those that are curious, here's the larger image ^_^ Quote
Tedhaun Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Can't believe that TNT would release the Eventide Draik so early. I have to find a Draik Egg someday (or save big on one) and get a FFQ to get one of these! Quote
Saxen Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 Editorial regarding Eventide TNT, please stop releasing new colors. You have tons of Neopets who cannot yet be painted in your existing colors -- focus your artists on these before releasing yet another new color. Thank you. ~pheekz While we understand your point of view, please understand that for the sake of variety, we don't want to completely finish off a colour before adding a new one. That way there's always a surprise around the corner, and not a solid year of swamp gas painted Neopets. As for the Eventide Paint Brush, it was born more out of necessity. Some players may notice that, on Neopet days, we typically release one complex and one simple colour (you guys often call these "colourfills") for each species. For the Aisha, we had completely run out of simple colours, and therefore needed to create a new colourfill paint brush, which is what eventide is. Eventide falls into the simple (white / shadow / orange, etc.) pool of colours, and will not take the spot of the more complex colours (maractite / transparent / water, etc.) Hopefully more will be released and it'll start coming down in price soon :) (Incidentally my friend wrote this and was unfairly frozen not long afterward....O-o) Quote
Sakabato Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Happy Shenkuu Lunar Festival! The Eventide Draik looks better than the Aisha, but I still find the lower parts awkward. Quote
neon_nightingale Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Happy Shenkuu Lunar Festival everyone!! The Eventide Draik is absolutely gorgeous! It's such a pretty colour. Quote
poisonouschicken Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Eventide Draik's rather good looking. Now if only I had a draik (and an eventide paintbrush). Quote
lovedwallflower Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 Great idea to release a Draik in Eventide, since it's now the year of the Dragon ooh nice touch, almost didn't notice that! love the eventide draik, the colour suits draiks much better than aishas imo. i bet shoyrus and pteris would be awesome in eventide too Quote
Emily Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I'm loving the new colour. I can't wait until more pets pop up to see how people customize them. I've always found it more difficult to customize pets with multicoloured skin. Either the clothes end up clashing, or you don't want to cover up the beautiful designs of the colour. Decisions, decisions... Quote
Angeló Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 why do I have a feeling that Draiks are always favored over other pets ??? it's not fair , really Quote
Nerd Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I think the eventide color really respresents the Lunar Festival, because the Festival is all about the new moon changing, and eventide is the sun changing to the moon. Quote
