Proposed Charlie Revamp



We've got a new poll for you to participate in!

The cheeky charlie is going through a small revamp! We'd like to hear your feedback - both what you like about the proposed revamp and what you dislike. Please take feedback over to the revamp feedback forum as it's easier for us to go through it there.

Just took the poll. I really like the one on the left, but his wings don't look quite right. They look too rounded...

Love the new one. I also agree with pretty much everyone about the wings, though.

The expression looks more like Dark Matter than Common. I don't know how to describe it!

And something should be done about the wings!

Otherwise it's looking pretty good!

  • the head, left shoulder, and chest look overall positioned very unnaturally against each other in my opinion, i tried to take a similar pose and it was quite uncomfortable.
  • the pose overall looks poorly balanced compared to the old version where the charlie was very clearly resting its weight on its hind legs, making the pose look more natural.
  • both the wings and the lower part of the belly look off and need more precision and accuracy in shading, right now they look somewhat sloppy.

i like the new face expression a lot, and paw wringing is a very good touch.

Woah. Amazing improvement!! I adore the new one. The old one is still cute, but cannot hold a candle to it!

The revamp has much more character than the current one. I'm all for change.

I like the posing and the character of the new one, but I think the wings are too bulbous-looking. They could use some tweaking.

"small"

Overall looks very nice, a few nit-picky things (I'll post em to the thread later, but looks like most if not all have prob already been pointed out) but overall obvious quality jump plus I like the direction c:

Looks good to me, though I've never been very attached to the Charlie, so I'm not going to miss the old version much either way.

I adore this, the only thing I feel looks a little funny is his shoulders. They seem a little too narrow for that head, but the pose, shading and attitude in this art is A=! He's definitely a little imp-kitty-rodent thing!

I'm really glad that the Charlie is finally getting some attention! I love the new face, and that little rubbing hands together, but the body overall looks like he's very underweight, dangerously so. If the body was bulked out a bit, I would be all for it, but as it stands, all I can see is mangy drowned stray cat.

I also agree about the wings. I think they should look a bit more bat-like, or at least less plastic-y/balloon-like.

The new one is great but I am kind of more favorable towards the original... even though I know the new one will win.

I like it! It has a lot more personality.

Noooo, I just got a Charlie as my third pet specifically because of how I like it looks. I still like the "old" version, looks more cheeky then crazy.

I've always hated the Charlie, so I don't care no matter what XD I'm not taking part in this poll.

Love the new one, but agree the wings need some tweaking and the other scar on the leg/knee area seems to have gone missing, wish that would be brought back. Other than that though, I love it!

I wouldn't say cheeky, looks rather shady to me now. I'm not a fan of the Charlie, but the new art looks better and the pose does give him more character.

I always thought the wings were supposed to be bat wings, but they're so abstracted from that I imagine them closer to a featherless chicken wing now. Which would be cool tbf :0

The facial expression is great and I love how it's wringing its paws together now--great touch! I'd like to echo others and say that the wings really do need to be more defined and shaded better. At the moment they look like pieces of plastic.

I like the look in the eyes. Reminds me of older versions.

The face looks fine, I love the expression.

However, man, these wings are not so great. They're lacking structure, and their shading is meh

I kind of feel like the wings need a little bit more work. They seem to me like the last thing the artist worked on. I liked the vein detail in the original picture. These wings look a bit poofy, swollen almost. Otherwise, great!

Both of the images in that poll are broken for me. This has been an intermittent problem (mostly with the hover images, but other images sometimes affected as well) since the DDoS at the beginning of the month. Relevant feedback thread here: https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/847224/Broken-Images/

Hmm...

This actually looks really nice. Not too much of a change where it's unrecognizable, and it still makes the Charlie look very sly. Those eyes are also pretty nice and shiny...
