Loving the new look but I agree it is a bit strange that the female hatchling hasn't got the larger fangs while the male does. I actually really like the males angry face and the huge claws. They look like they could rip your face right off!
Much more bear-ish. Love it!

I already chimed in with my opinion on the revamp several pages back, but I've read through other comments and wanted to address one thing some people are saying:
'These aren't bears, they're fantasy creatures.'
Okay. Yes, I understand that. I do. If they were carbon copies of bears they wouldn't come in blue or purple or have the neat accessories or cool genes. They're allowed leeway to make them look more fantastical or neat. But here's the thing.
The elements this "not bear" is drawing on right now are elements we already have represented in the game, in spades. We have two feline species, and four canine species. In my opinion, we do not need another species that draws from these cues. I wasn't a big fan of the morkko before because the lineart felt so outdated, but I could clearly tell they were bears. Not a wolf, not a cat. Bears. Maybe they're trying to amend the fact they were bears now, although looking back in the "new species suggestion" thread it clearly has "bears" and then a checked off "done!" So it really seems like the intention to me was to make them resemble bears.
And that's why I believe that this species should have this new lineart reworked a little to make them more ursine. Because I really don't feel like we need another cat/dog like species.
My opinion of course, but I'd be quite frustrated if the variety of kinds of pets available felt narrowed when that doesn't need to happen here.

Thank you for the feedback we have made edits to the original lineart and we plan on moving forward now with the Morkko. The edits are posted on the original post. :)

I have a question. If this is going to be the 'new look' for this species, then will our pets turn into these?
Maybe I just don't under stand.

Yes. Once the revamp is finished and implemented your Morkko will be using the new lineart.
