Spectrum and Blacklight Legeica!

July 17, 2018 8:57 am

Never have you seen such an expression on a legeica as on the spectrum and blacklight legeica! The usually reserved creature is practically goofy with excitement! I'm sure it will calm down in a moment, don't fret. Or maybe look into purchasing a larger paddock for your own one so it can release all that energy?

Note: The darkmatter kerubi has been slightly altered to have darker stripes and an expression to closer match the old one after some user feedback. There are some problems with the cache right now, so if you don't see the black stripes now then check again later.

We've also slightly altered the storm fester to remove some of the cloud from behind its head, and thinned out the lineart on the angelic feli. Just a few touch ups we found the time for! Thanks for your continued support!

Nevermind... Legeica were already updated ^_^; ignore me

July 23, 2018, 11:05 pm by

fingers crossed for Legeica art updates I'm kind of on the fence with the eye position, but otherwise these babies are gorgeoussss!

I really, really REALLY appreciate the slight changes made to the new darkmatter Kerubi. The tweaks honestly made the difference between changing Trance's species/color after many years and leaving her at is. Thank you for responding so well to constructive criticism that isn't always necessarily asked for or given in the most tactful fashion. The pet art is what makes this site for me, really - and staff artists have so much to be proud of, not only in regards to their own talents, but also their willingness to improve.

make the eyes sidefacing oh please :D it looks much more...crisp? i was also bothered by the wideness look and taking the other eye out so we just get the nose makes a huge difference I think :D other then that omg the colors eeeee so pretty

Spectrum Legeica would go great for my J-Pop idol pet but I do have to agree... those eyes are strange. 's edit improves it for sure.

July 18, 2018, 9:26 pm by

I tend to agree with everyone saying the eyes weird me out, but otherwise I really love the pose and everything else about these legeica's!

And I agree the Feli and Fester both look better. But for the life of me I see 0 difference in the Kerubi...Like nothing. Maybe I'm crazy?

July 18, 2018, 8:14 pm by

I actually preferred the "old" fester. The beak looks oddly glowy and like the odd focal point now even though it's just a beak. The other two updates are nice, though.

July 18, 2018, 7:24 pm by

I think it looks out of place. Rain would've been better

July 18, 2018, 7:04 pm by

Lightning was drawn into the area where the cloud was. The "blob" of color is the pink aura around the lightning.

July 18, 2018, 9:48 am by

Is it just me... or am I seeing a purple blob where the cloud once was? Also... the large space needs to have a little detail there...

July 18, 2018, 9:20 am by

Also,

Storm Fester - did someone just lazily use the erase tool? They couldn't have add a few more raindrops to cover the sudden big blank space?

July 18, 2018, 8:49 am by

Thank you so much for the tweaks on the other pets. This art is beautiful as well (it really is!), though a small transform/warp to the eyes would make it perfect. <3

July 18, 2018, 7:30 am by

Thank you for thinning the Angelic Feli's lineart! That was something that always bugged me; I'm amazed such a minor detail is actually updated & improved! (:

July 17, 2018, 10:31 pm by

New legeicas are gorgwous!! I love them, especially blacklight. The shading and fur movement is amazing!

Also really love all the tweaks done to other pets -- the kerubi and fester especially look a lot better! Thank you!

July 17, 2018, 10:24 pm by

So pretty! I like these a lot. The expression and color reminds me so much of Lisa Frank!

July 17, 2018, 9:40 pm by

The blacklight one is just gorgeous!

July 17, 2018, 8:38 pm by

i completely concur with everyone's statements that the front-facing eyes are really odd, but everything else about this pet is absolutely gorgeous!

July 17, 2018, 7:47 pm by

Seeing 's edit made me realize why the face looks off to me.

Honestly, if they ever got updated to match that edit in some regard, these would easily be in my top 10 favorite colored pets.

July 17, 2018, 7:24 pm by

I really like these actually (and the edit to the DM Kerubi and the others -- SO much better!) I also quite like 's edit with the eye more to the side though. Very subtle, but makes a huge difference imo.

July 17, 2018, 7:08 pm by

It's not just about its make believe biology, it's about consistency within a pet species and keeping the art on model.

The pudgy face is kind of cute, but I like 's edit a lot more. Thank you staff for taking our critiques into account and making changes.

July 17, 2018, 6:34 pm by

I love all the changes you guys made! The Fester, Feli and Kerubi all look amazing! I especially like the clearer head on the Fester. I'd honestly consider getting the Kerubi now with the darker stripes and more somber expression.

July 17, 2018, 6:06 pm by

Oops! I did mean glad and harvest, but I completely buried the actual release under how salty I was about the lack of harvest colour.

I support 's edit as well. It would make that beautiful design PERFECT! ❤ Thanks for the other great updates! :D

July 17, 2018, 5:10 pm by

Not the biggest fan of the face on the horses, but I love the updated versions that were mentioned. The Kerubi looks so much more fitting. :D

July 17, 2018, 5:00 pm by

At last! And it looks so pretty, too! :D

July 17, 2018, 4:58 pm by

Eeh... I honestly didn't notice the eye issues others mentioned until I read some of the other comments. Personally, I like the 'more equine' edit somebody made, but I also like This version. This is a fictional creature, not a horse. It doesn't have to have the same biology as a real creature.

July 17, 2018, 4:51 pm by

Aaaw... Kinda sad on the Feli change. I liked the purple in the lines.. But they all look good! :)

July 17, 2018, 4:48 pm by

:) Okay, first, I saw these earlier and they are Adorable! I love how their manes are flowing back and they seem to really capture the fun of these colors. (Honestly, if I could afford it, I would want SO many pets of mine to be Spectrum and Blacklight. Love 'em!)

Second, unrelated to these but dealing with pet colors, I just saw Merana and decided to check her out. I noticed not all my pets were showing up as options. One's already Hydrus, and two are fairly new and don't have the Hydrus option yet, understandable. But one is a Demi and I'm just really surprised that a species that's been around for so long doesn't have a Hydrus form (that's also been around awhile). I'm not planning on changing my Demi, but I am curious if it's in the current plans to make this form.

July 17, 2018, 4:46 pm by

Ohh man..something went very wrong with the face. I was really looking forward to the spectrum Legeica, and this pose is right along the lines of what I was hoping for. Everything from the neck down is perfection! But that face... It looks like someone pinned those ugly plastic barrettes we wore in the 90s to its face and then punched it in the nose. The forward-facing eyes have been noted. But why is the face so short and wide?? None of the other Legeica colors are like that. The combination of that and the apparent underbite make it not look equine AT ALL.

July 17, 2018, 4:46 pm by

I get what people are saying about the eyes, and I like the eye edit, but tbh I also like the way they are right now. idk i think it's pudgy looking face is cute

July 17, 2018, 4:39 pm by

beinagrind's edit def really helps the legeica feel more like its supposed to. i think its honestly just the eyes that are putting people off so much since its incorrect based on the species/other colors we've seen. however, maybe also lighten the pupil up a little to make it a dark dark blue? the other legeica's pupils are darker colors of their iris, and some like the normal and lilac have fairly dark pupils like the ones above but they're also noticeably still the same color as the iris, just very dark. making the pupil a dark dark blue should keep it on brand with the other legeica's (and even about half of the other blacklight pets cause they have the "darker iris color for pupil thing too") while lightening up the "staring into my soul" impression people have mentioned :P : )

BTW love the edits to the other pets. the festers nice face is now more visible, and the feli looks tooons more soft and angelic than it already did. the kerubi hasn't cached for me, but im sure its awesome too : ) . keep up the good work, and thank you!!

July 17, 2018, 4:20 pm by

I'm sad. I have had a pet 'bookmarked' for this color/species combo for a long time, and I'm just... not interested.

There isn't really anything objectively wrong (I don't even really notice the eye thing others have mentioned) it just doesn't work for me. I think a little bit might be that the pose is too dynamic/ungrounded (also makes the hair crazy) but that isn't all of it at all. I know I was worried about what the artist change would do but I don't really think that had an effect either. The quality is good. I guess it's just not what I expected, even though I didn't realize I expected anything specific.

Oh well.

July 17, 2018, 3:45 pm by

LOVE the spectrum and BL legeica, but 's little edit just sold it for me. ❤️ Its current eyes remind me of Charlie and Co', but less crazy. D8

July 17, 2018, 3:42 pm by

I gotta agree, 's edit is subtle, but fixes everything greatly. I'm sorry we're being so tough to please. x.x

July 17, 2018, 3:42 pm by

Thank you so much for fixing the Kerubi and the other pets! They look so much better now!

July 17, 2018, 3:39 pm by

I really, really dig the little edits to the other colours mentioned here, they were all super worthwhile imo. The feli looks softer, the fester's face is more pronounced and the kerubi looks sulky and moody (with more pronounced markings). But I'd definitely appreciate a change to the new legecia's face/eyes along the lines of 's edit.

When this was announced I was putting my thumb over the right side of the new legecia's face to crudely simulate what was basically sorted in that edit :'D Comparing them to the other legecia colours makes it more obvious. I like the art & think the pose/flow is wonderful, but the eyes really do put me off.

July 17, 2018, 3:35 pm by

ehh not entirely convinced on this legeica, the face looks off.

Do like 2/3 updates. Just prefered the previous kerubi colour scheme.

July 17, 2018, 3:26 pm by

I think it's kind of reminiscent of a Chibi Legeica in rainbow colors. Aside from the eyes and proportions, I think it's very well drawn. (And thanks for the revamps as well!)

July 17, 2018, 3:25 pm by

i log onto subeta and the eyes on this dude straight up startled me

July 17, 2018, 3:11 pm by

Now I'm confident that it was the eyes that looked a little off to me, after seeing 's mock edit. It's such a subtle change, but it really does make a difference. One of my initial thoughts was that the legeica's eyes were looking straight into my soul rofl.

July 17, 2018, 3:08 pm by

Oh wow, all these edits are perfect! Thank you so much, Subeta staff and artists, for taking the time out of your busy schedules to do a few touch-ups. They make a huge difference!

As for the Legeica... I LOVE it... except for the eyes! I really appreciate the edit that @ beinagrind did earlier on this thread. I'm really interested in having a Spectrum Legeica, but only if the eye position is tweaked, since they're kind of creeping me out as-is. :'( (I'm definitely no expert on animal anatomy though, so you should probably take my comment with a grain of salt, haha.)

July 17, 2018, 3:07 pm by

not the right post for this really but i love the update on the kerubi so very much! and the other two updates look so nice and clean. ;v; thank you guys for being so generous!! i am even more excited for new pet colors and to swap a few around; and great work with the legeica, though it's probably not one i will pick up (unless i find a name, that is). BUT THE MANES LOOK AMAZING!

July 17, 2018, 2:42 pm by

I love your edit. It's so subtle but it makes a big difference. ^^ Thanks for mocking it up. <3

July 17, 2018, 2:28 pm by

The legeicas look great, but its forward facing eyes make it look creepy for an animal that's eyes are naturally side-facing: like 's edit makes the legeicas look more appealing.

Great to see the slight changes on the other pets, that cloud on the storm fester's face has bothered me for a long time.

July 17, 2018, 2:25 pm by

They are so pretty omg!! <3

July 17, 2018, 2:24 pm by

Aww those Legeicas look great. And the DM Kerubi is much better now.

July 17, 2018, 2:21 pm by

Eh I kind of liked the pre-edit new Kerubi but it just goes to show that you'll never please everyone. The post-edit is still beautiful of course.

July 17, 2018, 1:52 pm by

Oh man, the revised Kerubi looks absolutely fantastic, it was almost-there before and now it's damn near perfect. Thanks for listening to our feedback!! :D
