No problem, I don't think my last ping went through! I love the floating animation. :D Can you let me know how much the total price is (since the added animation is extra?)

For the rings, I think i'm leaning a bit towards making them glow brighter and a bit dimmer? I'm a bit torn though, since if they fade it's show the whole sprite. Hmm..

As for changes, i'm not sure if this is possible with the animation and tight space, but is it possible to have the top of his head less flat, like with some small tufts like how he has with his messy hair? For space saving there could also be some of the inner lines of hair, like making some of those spike out from there so it doesn't add too much extra height? The rest is a-okay. :D In case it isn't clear in the ref for when you do get to the colouring part, his eyes are a light gray.

It’s perfectly ok that you stylized some things! I really like the clouds c:

I think you got the anatomy right for the most part! He’s a relatively weird creature so his anatomy is all over the place! The only thing would be the neck, would it be possible for it to be a tad shorter? A bit like so:

Also could the neck puff be a bit least poofy? I’m not totally sure of what kind of thing it’s supposed to be really ahahah.

Other then that it’s all good and these are minor nickpicking on my part (cause pollack is legit my most precious char and I tend to be pickier with him then others)

I’ll go offer on the lot now!

it's just the regular icon price of 800 csc~ I'm not charging extra for the animation on this one. I can try with the top of the head, but yeah it does come up and hit the very top of the 50x50 with the animations so I'll have to maneuver some things a bit.

I'll make those changes once I'm able to. I'll just go straight to coloring/animating after that if it's alright!

Def alright with me they are minor changes so go ahead c:

how is this? and I'll do 2 versions for you with the glowing so you can see to decide~

I payed in the lot. :)

And I understand, i'm sorry if it's tricky! x-x I'm trying to think of a way to fit it in too but all I can think would be to use some of the inner section of hair and have like...a pixel bump at the top...using the inner lines to try to get that illusion? Dunno if that makes sense. Like in this picture where some of them "start from the inside".

Edit:

Whoops, late response, so i'm editing!

That looks perfect, thank you! :D It's what I was trying to explain (poorly) above. Woho! Everything is a-okay now.

haha I know I was like dang you responded lightning speed XD and yay! yeah it was easier to fix than I thought and thank you for asking for changes ^_^ I agree this looks better! sometimes things can slip through my judgment -v-

No worries! I'm not a pixel artist myself so I always want to see if what i'm asking for is actually possible. A while back I pixeled some expressions for him, but that's about the extend of my knowledge. x-x And even then it was hard to fit his hair in. I can only image trying to do so with his whole body... Really, i'm so happy with how this is turning out! I know he's bulky (especially with the wings) and i'm still surprised it's actually possible to get him in pixel form. XD I'll probably be keeping an eye out for future slots and trying to get some of other OCs in.

AHHH sorry to ping you again and you probably though I was pinging you to see the final product. As I was changing it I thought I might be misunderstanding what you want changed for the neck poof

so just to check: when you want the neck poof to be less poofy do you mean you want me to change how the lineart looks? or just shift it closer to the head/body? thank you so much for your patience too! I can't wait to color this @ w @

Don't worry about pinging me too much c:

I'll like if it was a bit closer to the body if possible :P

ok OTL in that case I changed my mind. I think I will show you the fixed version so it's all correct before I get too deep into the coloring I'll ping you again later!

any changes :0?? I had to move the ring on our left a little up. since the animation is fading in and out and becoming transparent I had to shift it so that it wouldn't touch anything outside of the chibi. transparency doesn't transfer when making gifs so a pixel could be 1% opaque (invisible to our eye) and yet it'd still show up as a 100% opaque white dot that you'd only ever notice it if it's used on a background other than white. so i had to move it so it didn't touch any of the background. anyways!! let me know if you want changes ^u^ thank you so much for commissioning me!!

I'm sorry these changes are causing so much trouble pfffttt. I'll be on most of the day so I should be able to reply quickly if you ping me again so it won't slow down your work too much

@ past noooo no no they're not trouble at all! I'm sorry if I made it seem that way! I just get nervous about pinging people a bunch so that's why I was all wah and ok~ the ping will come in about 20-45 mins

EDIT: Ok so! I have two versions for you to look at. One has the fixed neck length, neck poof closer to neck, and the head poof also closer to the body. The other doesn't have the head poof changed. (since I wasn't positive if the neck poof meant just the one strip or the whole thing) So yeah c: please ask for any other changes if necessary ^_^!

A or B

I did mean teh whole thing! Version A looks perfect c:

EDIT: ONE LAST THING! Idk if you panned this but when you color would it be possible for the neck/tail rings to have no black outlines???

yay! I'll get to coloring then c: and yes I can make them without the black outlines ^_^

No worries! I know how finicky transparency goes with pixels, so I have no issue with moving the rings to make it work out! :)

It may be a small thing on my screen or not, but are his hands skin-coloured? Can they be made white (cause of his gloves)?

hmmm I'll take some of the shading off~ do you have a preference on which animation you'd like before I make the change?

Thank you! I think perhaps, the one with the ring glowing brighter and dimmer? They're both lovely but the file size of the fading ring one is giving me trouble over DA and such. x-x

Oh shoot! had I known you were going to use it on DA I would've checked the size before going ahead with the animation ;; I'm about to go to bed, but I will make those fixes as soon as possible!! thank you so much for your patience <3 I can tinker with the fading out one so it works on DA for you. let me see what I can do once I've gotten some rest ^u^

No problem! The dimensions are right for all of them, and the file size is under 15kb for the glowing darker/light one, so that works!
