I though more fearow or Ho-oh. Although it's also quite close to birdramon

I'd have to go for the Moltres.

(Submitted my Turkey Lenny to the art competition again, but doubts I'll get in since I have the (c) Neopets.com on it, and doesn't have time to wait until I get home to rescan it and retag it. Mom babysits and my home computer currently isn't hooked up to the internet (financial stuff and such), so I use the computer at the place mom babysits at.)

EDIT: Fawkes would be a perfect name for a Pheonix-fired style Lenny.

Saiyajins, Sandcastles, and Wingless Eyries... oh my!

It's a phoenix! When I saw it, the first thing I thought of was the international cover of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:

I love it too.... i think its one of the coolest pet colours on neopets, actually...

however, i DONT like it when you cant ONLY tell a maraquan pet by its FACE.... look at this turtle. If it didnt have that face or horn, you would NEVER know it was a shoyru.... they are getting WAY into just taking the head or face of a neopet, and sticking it on a random sea creature... these are what im talking about:

ImageImageImageImageImage

i think there are a couple more....

its just either a face, or a head...... if the buzz didnt have those eyes... if the grarrl didnt have those eyes, if the moehog and kyrii didnt have their faces, we would NEVER have known what type of specie it was!

i think they need to do what they originally did with the maraquan paintbrush.... take a neopet, and then take attributes of WATER things, and apply them to the PET, instead of vice versa.... like these:



ImageImageImageImageImage

they take flippers, or tentacles, or fins, or something relating to a water creature, and apply them to the neopet.... this is what I like to see! does anybody else agree?


Just skipping the whole "OMG Neopets is ripping off Pokemon" argument...


Personally, I think that the way TNT is doing the Maraquan pets now is how they should've been doing them all along. Sure, in some cases (like the Blumaroo), the distinction between the Neopet and the real-world sea creature is almost obvious, but in others...

The best move they made was taking the existing sea creature and applying the features of a Neopet to it. As strange as it may sound, it gives those pets a more "natural" feel. Just look at the Kyrii... it looks like it belongs in the water, and that should be the whole point.

Doing it the other way - taking the pet and adding features of a sea-creature only works sometimes, like in the case of the Draik, Krawk and Scorchio. Most of the time, however, the pet comes off looking not quite right... like the Kougra and Chomby (both good concepts, just could of have been done better). Or it comes out looking entirely ridiculous, like the Mynci and *shudder* the Gelert.

And that's my 2 cents... ;)

I kinda like that. Not that I like checkered pets in general, but this seems to be a step in the right direction to tone the color down.

I'm finally back for the summer, although hopefully I'll spend a little more time away from this screen.

Much better then the other Checkered pets. The colors aren't too distracting. Still an ugly color, but a definite improvement. :)

Click here, click here! Don't be a c-c-c-combo breaker! :D

I agree 100%, doesn't make it a good colour, but doesn't make it another *shudder* purple

Yeah, I'm not one for checkered pets in general, but at least this one doesn't make me dizzy when I look at it.

This is the first time we've caught this now.

1. Huggy Revamp - Many of us think that Huggy resembles Totodile

2. Fire Lenny Shopkeeper- Resembles Moltres of the Pokemon WOrld


Conclusion: TCG is Wizards. Wizards both had shares in Pokemon and Neopets. There is no surprise that there are artists from there, here.


Spells are my thing ;)

Those Valentine's images are ace.

I want to hug a Slorg! That slorg is just so cute!

I love the darker burgundy of the Aisha, it's a nice change from standard pinks.
