Silver is fine for silver

I like the frosting on the chocolate elephante's wings; the whipped cream headress is ok. I prefer milk chocolate myself (like this one), but I suppose some of you out there would have prefered a dark chocolate elephante.

The chocolate elephante looks a little plain - it would benefit from something on its trunk/stomach. Even white-chocolate toes would've been a nice little additional detail.

Chocolate looks a little plain--it could pass off for brown. I feel as though there's something missing on it...
Silver is...Silver.

[Marah]

Chocolate is missing some swirls. or sprinkles. like this it is a bit plain.

I think I would have preferred Chocolate if the cherry was in the place of where the gem on the standard Elephante's headdress is, but otherwise I agree with Madge, the stomach is just crying for some design

Silver is good for silver. I'm just happy they did get headdresses this year

Ye gods. I'm going to say about what Rah said after Aisha Day: Did they fire last year's artist or something? Sheesh. Robot was so snazzy last year, and these are so -- not.

Silver, okay, fine, whatever. Not much that can be done, so they get a pass for this one. But chocolate, whomg. There's a reason the Chomby is a favorite chocolate pet - it's actually got the room on its body to carry out nifty designs and suchlike. So you'd think the ginormous belly here would've looked nice with similar white chocolate tracings, circles, if they couldn't bring themselves to go all out as they did with the Chomby. Same for the trunk.

And I too wonder why the tail and the nails are both just light brown. White chocolate would've really made the nails stand out. Waffle nails, if they worked. would've been awesome. The tail needs more attention as well; a puff of frosting would've been nice - or just a dark or white chocolate, if they were really rushed. Anything but what they did here.

0 for effort, 0 for forethought, a barely passing grade for execution.

Silver is . . . silver
Chocolate is just a brown elephante with frosting on its head and wings, but its not THAT bad, i suppose . . .

[Faun]

These are nothing special. Silver is nice for silver and chocolate is brown.

[Gumdrops]

Have Elephantes always had wings and fluffy tails? How did I never notice before, lol?

Silver is fine, though I think it could be a little more shiny. Chocolate is just so plain. It's just lazy.

Yikes. Looks like the artist churned these out at the eleventh hour.
Chocolate is just so.. boring. And the silver looks really flat, but most of the gold and silvers look flat to me, so maybe it's just me.

Rather disappointing elephante day. Although the flapper clothes set is cute.

Ugh, I just realized that the topping on the Chocolate's head is the exact same as that for the Chocolate Kougra.

Oh my goodness...

Silver is about as good as a Silver pet gets, and I mean that as a compliment.

Chocolate would be run-of-the-mill if it weren't for the art recycling Nogitsune pointed out. We're used to often seeing colourfills executed with little effort, it's disappointing to see they're now using shortcuts on the more exotic pet colours too.

I do actually like the silver, it's subtle and understated but is somehow "right" and works just as it should....the news that the only remotely creative part of the Chocolate is merely a steal from the Kougra is pretty damning, I mean if it's someone's job to design these colours knowing that there's a huge audience awaiting their efforts you'd think they might take a bit more pride in their work.
