People seem to get very upset about all these revamps. I sometimes think it would be a good idea to just redraw them in the same pose with a verrrrry similar/ identical color scheme, but with smoother lines and better shading, then maybe people who owned the pets wouldn't get upset and abandon them/ pay thousands to recolor them.
Or they could always draw multiple pictures all at once and have everyone vote on them.
I dunno, just a thought. ^^ I do prefer most of the revamped pets, though..goodness knows why.. xD
The far arm looks weird and it's head looks twisted up and too big. Other wise it's very nice...
I'm not sure... on the whole, it's pretty cool. I'm not sure if I'm very fond of the head tho. No, not cause it's smiling... just not sure I like the shape. I like the big, pretty eyes on the original.
I'll have to wait as see. I'm sure which wins will work out.
I like the newer version, i think it looks way cooler.
Stop whining you ninnies.
tickface, I want to marry your post. I agree wholeheartedly.
i really love how some people get all upset over these revamps. i like this one more, it's more anatomically correct--its arm doesn't look like it's coming from the same joint that it's leg is in, and it's all shiny and pretty and unflat. personally I like the one that's "smiling" over Patronus's edit, if you look at some dinosaurs (including the family or whatever that 'raptors belong to; i can't remember what it's called) it's actually the shape of their jaws that make them appear to be smiling.
and who gives that it doesn't look exactly like little skinny birdy velociraptors? : D It's NOT a velociraptor! oh my god!
I liked the original version MUCH better. Oh well, seems like I will have to change another pet due to revamps. x.x
Patronus's tweaks look awesome. It doesn't look goofy anymore ![]()
YES! A grinning dinosaur xD shweet... I can't wait to see what gets revamped next =D Keep up the awesome work!
actually I like the original version rather than the "tweaked" one that was posted. It's not "smiling", that is just the structure of the creature's face, and it's actually very accurate. I think this new version looks great, the previous one was kind of bland and spindly.
I like what Patronus did to it. Alot. o.o
maybe i am weird... but taking away that smile makes it look far more female.
what i highly dislike. then rather a grinning neurtal pet than a not that grinning female looking one.
with this strong jaw bones this pet needs the grin...
Agreed, I like Patronus' version.
Hmm, I just vcame ot a conclusuin: The smile, ridge above eye, and cheeks are only thing bothering.
Patronus, I like your tweaks. C: Especially because the creepy smile is gone. I'd really like the artists to fix that smile... D| Hm.
hm....not the best
Beautiful! It's about time my favorite pet got a revamp. =D
I tweaked it a little more, and I think the results are good. (:
Straight out calling it hideous/ugly isn't helping anything, ya know.
;
I still prefer.

The re-vamp is so pretty that it makes me want one. :3 -hugs nearby velosotor-
Let me be frank. The new one is hideous, i'm SO voting for the old one.
I edited it a bit, check my topic on Main subeta forum for the changes. (:
Improvement, but the face needs work, maybe on the Chunky-ness to it and a less goofy grin. :/ I just hope with this revamp comes good colours like Angelic/Galactic.
Oh man, I might consider getting one now, but I have too many reptiles as is. xD;;; Anywho... huge improvement from the older one. The shading looks great and its claws = awesome. ![]()
TwofoldBlack, yea, .. I know raptors are therapods too, I just felt like distinguishing them there. xD Either that or I wasn't thinking clearly since it was like, two in the morning when I posted that. LOL. Well whatever. Now that I've slept on it I think it looks awesome, but the hands still bug me. shrug
But you know... then again, the new one does have a little better color and a nicewr smile...?
I agree with Luxe: All the pets on this site are supposed to be magical and unreal creatures of their own species. So it kind of annoys me that they(meaning staff) keep trying to make them look more and more like normal animals!! This Velosotor is supposed to look like a Velosotor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Besides the old one is 10x cuter!! =~.0=
I like the old look better.
Well, like I said before, I'd like to see somethign done with the hands. Other then the hands, I'm pretty much in love with the dear. :3 bought an elixir and knows who she will use it on
Meep. D= It ate the rest of my post. I was going to say I love most everything else about it
The back of the head seems kinda weird to me, but I could be wrong. -shrugs- The expression though.. -shudders-
The ONLY thing I dislike about this, is the smile. It doesn't fit, at all. I prefer the expression of the old one to this one. Also, she shading almost makes it look 'furry', to me... -shrug-
This is a velosotor, not a Velociraptor or Tyrannosaurus Rex. It does not need to look like anything real.
Can there be a 2nd revamp like there was with the Tigrean? To take into account what people have said about the neck and the claws? I don't care if it looks like a real dinosaur, but I want it to look more like the gorgeous pet it is now if possible.
o.0 Actually, yeah, velociraptors should be on the thin and elegant side. They're birdlike. "That's not very scary. More like a six-foot Turkey." This revamp is some sort of clunky light-weight T. Rex.
My only thought is that the front feet should be more delicate and fine, almost like fingers, instead of stubby claw-thingies... But other than that, it looks very nice... the face was kept very velositorish. ![]()
Not my favourite. If it's changed I'll probably get rid of my Velosotor.
This one is 9583490583490258345 times better.
Probably the best revamp yet. ![]()
Yea i hate what they've done with the Otters/Ontras T-T
youre drooling too much about science and tv. it doesnt matter at all if the new art is closer to what people call raptor or closer to your favourite movie. if they gave him a pigtail, would i say "yay its great now" just because i like babe? o_° (i dont like babe its just an ex.) they should revamp the art, not the pet, in my opinion. so judge by how much VELOSOTOR it is, not how much "yay jurassic park" or "whatever-raptor".
SpinosaurUs, that is.
A small note, Julie: raptors are theropods. You seem to be thinking of theropods as the tyrannosauroids and their relatives, but theropods also include (to name the famous ones) Allosaurus, Gallimimus, Spinosauris, Archaeopteryx, Compsognathus, and all the raptors.
grumbles And my spacing died. Why can't I double space? wtf. Did I mention I love the claws? They're so shiny ... stares
The raptors in Jurassic Park did resemble the Utahraptor. Unlike common believe, actual Velociraptors were small, probably no bigger than your common goose or swan. I always liked to think that Deinonychus were featured in Jurassic Park, but they're a little too small to have been considered. It irks me that they used the term Velociraptor for that movie incorrectly, even though it's one of my favorite movies.
I have to agree with Ounegoneziea; the hands need to be done something with. The hands resemble a therapod more than a raptor. It irritates me. The body structure looks a lot more therapod-ish than raptor-ish as well; weren't raptors more bird-like in their appearance and movements?
However, having loved the Velosotor since the beginning, I'm very happy that they're finally getting their revamp. Though I'm upset that the friend I gave mine to was frozen for reasons unknown, she hadn't even played for two months when she was frozen. A little odd, and frustrating on my part; I want my pet back.
Very nice, the old one was too flat. =)
"Velociraptors are not thin and elegant." they arent, of course! they are and ugly and have a huge snout and are often bloody. but VELOSOTORS are thin and elegant. or were. they wont be in future.
Velociraptors are not thin and elegant.
The old one was far, far, far too skinny for what it's supposed to be and I'm glad than the new version is fixing that
I LOVE the old one.The old one looks like yoshi!The old one is 93938443298y5846984326598643892678436438 times cuter too!And now,its a disater!Its too real-looking!its tail is too big.
