Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
The flowers on the Strawberry Bruce are adorable! First time they've been used but they look great. Chocolate is nice, the candy corn feet and beak are cute touches.
A much more successful Bruce Day than I had anticipated!
EDIT: should I delete this topic as it was posted second? I must have posted at the same time as the other post was made as I didn't see it before.

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
I'm not big on the strawberry colour, but I love the strawberry flowers on the bruce's head/bowtie
Chocolate is a mix of whip cream and candycorn (with a shaved chocolate bowtie). The feet do look a little strange though...

The Strawberry Bruce is too cute. I love those flowers. I've always liked the Strawberry color though. It's not always executed as well as it could be, but usually, the pets look really nice.
Chocolate is okay, but those feet look absolutely goofy.

I think the Strawberry Bruce would look better if the body was slightly less red, or at least if there was some more contrast - though I bet a lot of people will be after that floral bow!

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
Strawberry is surprisingly pretty! I like the leafy bow, that's an inspired little touch. Chocolate is less attractive, to my eyes-- it's got one of those weird orange-striped beaks like the Pteri's, which actually goes OK with the cream of the face, but the feet in the same colours are just distracting, and to me the whole bird doesn't look glossy enough to be made of chocolate rather than just being brown.

I never realized how odd a choice candy corn is for chocolate pets as it's only really eaten in North America and I've never really seen it mixed with chocolate before. Though I can't think of anything better to use for beaks.
Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
I think both bows are well thought out, shaved chocolate: very smart! and those flowers on strawberry are lovely, that will look very good on a cross painted pet! I wonder if it would look good on a faerie bruce, it might be a bit too green.
Anyway, bruces aren't the most popular pets so I wouldn't have been surprised to see two basic colourfills. It is nice to get these two instead, clearly the artist put in a little extra effort!

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
There is a type of nasty candy corn with a chocolate bottom, where the yellow is supposed to be. So I suppose that "counts" as a chocolate ingredient.
Strawberry is one of the cutest bruce colors I think they have! Chocolate is very good, but it just looks less spectacular compared to the former.

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
Win and win.
I love it when artist think out of the box. Strawberry is adorable! The only thing I dislike is the chocolate flakes on cream they've been putting on nearly all chocolate pets of late. I'd much prefer the pure cream with a cherry on top.
As for candy corn, I love how it looks, but I have absolutely no idea how it tastes. If I ever travel to The US I'll buy some to try.

Chocolate - yeah, those feet look odd. It appears to have no feet but instead be resting on top of a stripy boomerang.
Strawberry - it's good! I'm liking the leaves and flower on the bow, a nice touch.

For larger versions:
These are both very cute. I'm glad to see bows again this year, too.

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
Strawberry Is Cute, i like the detail on the Bow and the Stalk for the hair, im not keen on the Daiseys though, but hey, maybe they will grow on me!
Chocolate is good, i like the detail / flake-likeness on the bow, the candycorn feet and beek are a nice touch and i like the whipped cream
I have been wiating for Choco and Strawberry bruces now and finally i have them!!!

Re: Strawberry and Chocolate Bruce
Those would be strawberry flowers, rather than daisies, to go with the strawberry leaves. I'm not a fan of Bruces in genereral, they tend to be rather bland, but the Strawberry is very cute and pretty distinctive.
