Christmas Gnorbu

Post by Officer 1BDI »

This is odd; I don't remember this being announced in the news, but sure enough, I found someone on the site with a Christmas Gnorbu.

Image

It looks very much like the Gnorbu from the AC animation (unsurprisingly). I really like the colors they used for this one (nice shade of green for the wreath-like mane), and although I'm not a fan of the lights, I'm sure they're removable. Incidentally, I really like the bow for some reason. Overall, a very nice pet, IMO.

ETA: If you go to the owner's userlookup, you can see how painfully blurry the Gnorbu is compared to her other pet. This seems to be a growing trend with new items and colors. :(

Except for the lights, I love this pet. Great combinations of colour. The dark forest green goes well with the pale green shadows. The red is nice and doesn't clash. Overall, really nice.
If you're ever in doubt, throw a pepper in the air. If it fails to come down, you have gone mad, so don't trust in anything.

I dunno why people don't like the lights. Then again, I also like the baubles on the Christmas Ogrin. I just have a thing for lights and baubles, I guess. I like this pet a lot more than I would've expected myself to.

Wow, it's a Gnorbu that I genuinely wouldn't mind having. The end of the world must be near.

I too have to say that I don't like the lights, they just strike me as... odd. And potentially dangerous to the poor little llama thing.

I love this! SO much in fact, that I just created Tynsul the Christmas gnorbu. I'm going to get a mutant gnorbu as well to keep with the species theme.

Interestingly, neither the bow or lights were removable when I had a look in customisation. Though, personally, I quite like the lights.

Auuuugh. That makes me want to clean my glasses. Only that won't fix anything. ;P Have they fixed whatever other blurry stuff they released, yet?

I'm kind of disturbed by how the lights don't have any wiring visible--guess that the Gnorbu is like Fester Addams somehow?

I think this is a great pet, not overdone. The light look great, adding a little bit of colour. I don't see why there'd be any wiring for them though. That would kind of look strange. The bow looks quite nice too.

Ah, a nice, white Christmas pet. Not that an overdone one is much of a problem with customization, now. Gee, that's awfully optimistic of me, given my normal behaviour. Whatever. Good addition to Christmas pets and Gnorbus. May they have many happy creatures...

I like this one, I really like the color combinations on this. I am unsure if I like the lights or not, but they might be removable, I'm not sure though.

I'm not a huge fan of Christmas colors, but I really like this. Especially the lights. :)

I love this! I love the the lights; it wouldn't work as well for me without the lights. That bow is too adorable! I wouldn't mind having this pet. It's probably one of my favourite Christmas pets so far. :)

I'd like to see what's removable and how the stuff looks on other colours.

A friend of mine owned one until recently, I'll check if he still have it, and will ask him what he can remove.

I liked Christmas Gnorbu a lot, in opposition to Christmas Grarrl.

Hi, TNT! *Offers plate of cookies* I was wondering if Gnorbu can be painted Christmas because of the December 17th Advent Calendar. Thanks! ~kittycat_sleeps
Yup! We snuck that one in under the radar. Shhhhh...

Nothing was removable when Helmcargh checked.

Whoops, somehow missed that. :oops:

Ah, darn! I really like the bow. But I don't mind this one's colour scheme, for once, so I don't mind the items staying with it as much.
