I like having smaller gems along with the one bigger gem, and how the gems on the Hatchlings are real gems and not just little lights.

-happy tap dancing- oh these look amazing! Once these are done I might finally actually finish my breeding projects.While the old art is not bad, these look magnitudes better. A credit to improved skills.<3

that being said i have to agree something feels slightly off but only slightly!

i can't visualize it myself, unfortunately my brain doesn't work that way but:

female: I believe the female's head should be turned towards us just slightly, to me it looks like she's overextending the turn of her head. I never noticed in the old art because i simply wasn't paying attention. otherwise to me she looks perfect!

male:
-unless its on purpose it appears the male's head is smaller than the female? I see this as well on the old art but the definition makes it more obvious here.
-i'm also wondering if slightly shortening the front arms or widening them might be something to consider? because of the male's pose it makes his arms seem more..er.. "leggy" for lack of a better term. you can also see them being wider on the old art.


i will admit that i'm both surprised and not surprised to not see as much changed as other breeds but i mean. there wasn't much to change was there? It's mostly updating art and making them look as fancy as everyone else now is. i'm adoring the addition of extra crystals and more fluff though! i'm doing happy tap dancing imagining the foxtail and chipmunk on this new art! the gradients!


For the head size difference: I think some of it is partially the perspective. The males would be a little bigger than the females, but due to all of our artwork being restricted to the same canvas box, we have to 'scale down' larger things - which then makes prominent features, like heads, become smaller.

But noted. =) Thank you for the feedback!

I think the adults are too chonky, more like "a long-eared, bunny-tailed Luffox sitting upright" rather than an actual rabbit. Just swap the bulb gems for tusks and horns, maybe give the Luff a rabbit ear mutation, and they'd pretty much be interchangeable. (I can't un-see this comparison now; it's a Luffox with a different pose.)



(Edit to add: I think his right arm - HIS right, visually on the left side of the image - is sticking out too far. The elbow placement looks more "foreground" than the leg, like it sticks out farther when bunny forearms usually tuck in towards the center more than the hind legs, not out away from the center and over the legs. elbow tucked behind the leg would look more bunny)

(This also applies to the female hatchling. I'm starting to think they have developed human shoulders with the revamp sketch, lol)




The more rounded female face also looks more similar to the Luff now, since it looks like a triple-curve (cheek, chin, cheek as if she's holding her breath with her cheeks puffed up) versus the current pointier V shape with the fur curling downwards on the cheeks, but no actual cheek puff making two additional curves.

Also gonna throw on some references of actual upright rabbits, which are more slender and lanky than the current bulbs, but at least the current bulbs don't have the sketch's level of chonk. There's some more distance between the leg and arm on the current one, and the arms don't reach as low as the new sketch.




Since we have the Luff now... I'd rather see some differences enhanced with the Bulb revamp, to be honest, not the opposite where they look even MORE similar. Luffs = chonk rabbit; Bulb = "more realistically proportioned gem rabbit" and not "also chonk rabbit but with gems."

So exciting!! I love revamp time! I love the new gems and gem placements, I think that will help G3 be more fun/noticeable. I'm most excited to see what gets done with the traits, I feel like bulbs get really muddy sometimes, like the traits overlap a bit too much. I would also love to see fairy wings get a nice upgrade, they're gorgeous, but kind of sit behind everything (unlike the other wings).

ex:
butterfly wings with fox tail:

I personally always think of Luffox as bunnies and Bulbori as hares. The current sketches make the Bulbs more fluffy and chonky, which takes away from their current hare-like appearance and makes them more rabbit-like.

I think it would be good to maintain their slender, stronger, longer bodies rather than fluffing them out to become more like (as Xav said) a Luffox in a different pose. I think even just elongating the face rather than squashing and fluffing it out could go a long way (the current adult sketches seem to have very squished snouts and round faces - maybe it's the perspective?)

I love most of them! There's something off with the adult male's pose (specifically in the arms) and the face (weirdly flat for the pose) but otherwise the revamp is looking great
