Fennec Foxes - update for the 2009/2010 Shima Fennecs

I was expecting this to come, and I was afraid they would look bad, but I am very pleased to see the outcome! Much much better than expected! They're amazing. c:

They look good!

I'm really happy to see this project wrapped up and all the traced/questionable lines taken care of. Huge thanks to all the artists, that definitely took some hard work and motivation on their parts.

Not gonna lie, i'm really sad. My blue one just looks like the new ones, it's not as special.

As much as I like the new fox lines, I'm pretty sad to see the old ones go. I wish I got to save them for memory or something, but I guess it had to be done, don't want CS shutting down or anything they look great, great job artists

Sad to see the old line-art go as I LOVED the big fluffy tails, and I forgot to screenshot the old linearts before they were gone, but I understand why it was done so...

Though I feel the Birthday Tag should still be on the blue one? It doesn't seem right for it to be gone.

Same. This is rather upsetting to me as well. I don't mind the update and I know it has to be done, but I don't see why it had to be removed.



That's the original design.

Yeah the only thing I miss is the pretty design in the background of the Shima Birthday Fox.

But at least they'll be easier to dress up now.

That's the original design.

It makes it not the same design. It's a similar or based on design, but the birthday logo made it as unique as anything else. Now it's just 'that rare blue fox'. It's not 'The blue shima fox' anymore and it's not the 'Shima Birthday Fox' anymore. There is absolutely nothing to mark out that it was ever special to begin with. I think this is the first time you guys haven't translated a design correctly.

I've never really had a problem with any of the other translations, in some cases the designs worked better on the new lines actually, but this one sticks in my craw. The pet is incomplete at best and ruined at worst. Was there a reason the graphic couldn't be translated? I realize without the brush used to make it it would have been a pain to hand recreate...was that the reason it was left off? Because it would have taken too long to freehand? Or was the brush also copyrighted? In either case, couldn't the happy birthday have still been written in?
