i love the new design!

MUCH better! LOVE the little moon-like crests above thier head! Reminds me of the bulbori and I love it!!!

SUGGESTION TO ADD THE MOON CRESTS TO THE HATCHLINGS AS WELL. IT seems a bit off that the adults have it while the hatchlings don't, because bulbori hatchlings have the gems as well as the adults

Also the noses just aren't doing it for me :/ I see where you're going with it But I liked the clean pointed faces a little better. But the fluff is still great!

I know this is late, but thought I'd drop my 2c here! I feel these are already very nice. I am familiar with insects though so am suggesting some minor alterations to maybe make them look a little more buggy.

* May look better to have the area where the thorax and abdomen connect cinch a bit more. Having such a smooth transition makes them feel very mammalian to me.
* I'm assuming these are based off of the Venezuelan poodle moth, the Bombyx mori, or maybe the Muslin Moth. Either way, their wings are not as pointed as the art, they're more like rounded triangles like moths most moths! Their legs are also longer, and are furry but still have clearly-defined segments. Example:


Though Bombyx mori still has a nice curve to it, imho:


Muslin's have a frayed-looking edge to their wings, I think this could be made into a nice delicate-looking pair of wings if the lineart around the edges varies in thickness:


At any rate, I'm really not feeling the wings myself! Not only do they feel very "fake" (as opposed to the puffadore, who despite having fictional anatomy like the tentacle-tuft thingies, feel more "alive" as a whole because their anatomy doesn't seem too egregious), it seems like it'd be more difficult trying to do art (ie genes) for the designs. Also I'm not sure what those loose strings on the wings are for, maybe make them more like a Luna moth?


* Snoots. I love the curve, but I feel it may be a bit to excessive? Perhaps straighten it out a smidge; this is something I'm not personally sure what throws me off. Same thing with the abdomen.
* Personal opinion but I never liked the concept of throwing eyelashes to distinguish gender on animals lol; they don't follow human gender conventions, always makes it feel very fake to me
* The abdomens! They can be furry too!
* Super personal opinion and this may make the design too cluttered, but I think it'd be cool if inside the crescents on their crests, there were circles too like on the top. It would mimic ocelli!

Overall I think these suggestions would improve the art, but in no way do I think they're bad as it stands. I can't wait to see the final versions!!

Would there ever be any Ryori Revamps in the future?

There is a minor revamp planned for later, I've heard.

As such, here are the newest sketches: Click for a Larger View Please Note. The Adult Male, Adult Female, and Baby Female are SKETCHES. They have NOT been lined. This means that the artwork is not 100% proportional, straight, finalized, etc. All of that is done when the sketch is lined. So please do not post things like, "The antenna are not sized the same. This line isn't straight. That circle isn't smooth. Etc. As always, please keep comments constructive and respectful. Also, please do not derail the thread by arguing with others about anatomy or opinions - or anything like that. Please just post comments or constructive criticism about the new artwork. Thank you. =P

They are so cute! Just wondering but, when will the revamp be?

Probably sometime around mid July.

I like them. They are so fluffy!

They are adorable! XD Was the thing above their heads always there?
