The Serpenths, seeing the Aeries fussing over each other in the treetops around Subeta, grew jealous--just slightly jealous, they claim.
Without a word, they all slithered off into the night (much to the joy of the smaller species, who would finally have a bit of rest without fear of being eaten), leaving many owners confused as to the whereabouts of their beloved pets.
But of course, they've returned--and brought a surprise with them. No one is quite certain where those patterns came from, but they seem a bit attached.
What do you think?

This is very nice, but I'd love to see the hair much less wavy, and the color go back to a white or grey. The browns and reds just don't really mesh well in my opinion, and it was more original with an original color scheme o:

Otherwise, good job c:

I do prefer the more fluffy, poofy mane though.

While the wings do bother me, I don't mind it much. I like the revamp much better. It adds much needed detail and gives it a more frightening feel--the one a serpent needs.

And the hair doesn't bother me much because I'm only interested in dynamically posed pets, so the hair will probably be rather different with those poses rather than the one displayed here XD;

I don't like the new one's color, or how the wings are kind of. . . lower than they were on the current version.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

It's amazing o: The wings do look a little bulky, though.

I find the head very appealing, especially the tongue.
I do agree that the wings look bulky, but I could care less about its hair/mane, I actually somewhat like it although there are ways that it could look better.
I actually think you should do away with the stripes on the tail, or lighten them, though.
I'm going to need to get one of these when it is revamped... D;

but I kinda liked the other one being white with black hair (I love monochromatic stuff :C) so I voted for the old one. Doesn't matter much to me, I'll never have one anyway xD

The new Serpenth revamp is AMAZING. o__o -loves on DNA- Now it looks like an actual snake instead of a fat, flying worm. XDD Iloveit. The change to earthy colors and the boa patterns on its back are really, really cool... its special colors will have so much more potential now. o-o ♥ ...and the idea of the Graveyard being redrawn in this style is nothing less than thrilling. It would be freakin' awesome beyond words. XD

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Oh... my... gawd...!! That new Serpenth is awesome! It's super gorgeous and it doesn't look like a worm anymore! Man... if I weren't so attached to the 15 pets I already have, I would definitely get one!

Maybe if the pet limit was increased...

I like the improved style, but I don't quite agree with the revamp still. Mayhaps if the head were shaped more like a rattlesnake's it might look better? I figure a rattler's head is automatically more menacing and coy then... uh, what is that? A boa? o.0 Maybe python... but rattlesnakes just instantly have that "Don't mess with me" look.

perhaps more shaggy for the hair and less wavy, and a tiny bit less neck length between the wing to head segment...I really do love the arch in the neck, it just feels a little too long. I adore the patterns, I really love how they were done and the expression still holds a bit of intimidation while still being neutral enough to placate those that want a 'perky, happy serpenth'.

I like the pattern a lot as is, because it looks similar to real life snake patterns on their back. The belly looks absolutely gorgeous, and I just want to pet it. The shape of the head looks really good too, especially the expression.

hmmm... Hate to say it but other than the length of the new Serpenth and the pretty wing style, the new look doesn't appeal to me. The mane looks scraggly instead of foofy and the scutes on its underside look bumpy. Knowing what a RL snake feels like when you hold it, those scutes look hard and less flexible than a snake's. And the head... meh I liked the slightly dragonish head on the old style rather than the snakey one. Sorry DNA. e.e

On the plus side, now I can have the Lain I always wanted. Heeere Quitzel... Mommy has a new drink for you in a birdie shaped bottle...

I agree. It looks great but the hair looks a bit funky and the wings are too bulky. I got a pet bird and I know that wings are much slimmer than that. These wings look kind of fat, in my opinion. Otherwise, great job

The current serpenth doesn't look menacing to me at all. XD I -will-, of course, give it a lot more of an intimidation factor for some of the special colors, but I wanted it to look more neutral for the commons.

Which was -hard-, by the way. I was so tempted to make it hiss...XD

Oh, also--feel free to let me know what you think of the pattern. It's not quite set in stone yet--I can always lighten it or take it off, depending on what enough people think. It was more an..experiment to try and get the serpenth to not look quite so monotonous.

I like the new color and the added diamonds but the hair is too long and curly. By length, I don't mean how far down it's back it goes. I also agree that the wings are a tad big, but they're a huge improvement.
Although I do like this overall, I thought Serpenths were suppose to look menacing.

Yes. Oh, yes. was a Serpenth lover from day one Looking awesome. A few little tweaks here and there won't matter if the overall new look stays like this. Thank you, DNA!

Wow, this looks great. I like how the body is more elongated and snake-like. The old one seemed a bit... stubby. And I was always a bit confused about the arid colour being black, which it seemed to be the opposite to all the other arid pets... lol.
The hair looks a bit odd, though... I think maybe it should taper off a little rather that abruptly ending halfway along the body, but eh.. not sure.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by DNA_558

The old colors are being kept--they're just being moved, so to speak.
Current common is shifting to arid, current arid is shifting to twilight.

I'll see what I can do with the hair (I personally would've loved to do away with it entirely, but since this was meant to be more of an update to the old design and not an out and out total rehash, I opted I should probably keep it).
The wings, I'll likely try reposing/reshaping, as with the comments and having stared at it for a while now I'm seeing several poses for them that may work well, too.

Still, keep the crits coming--and thank you!

Can we keep the old colors and maybe shorten the neck a little on the revamped version? Also, the new version seems to be suffering from a bad case of Corpse Eyes - maybe sneak some color in there?
