Camo & Invisible Elephante

Post by hebdenhippy »

Camouflage | Invisible (the image is there, honest!)

The Elephante benefited a lot from customisation, it's quite a nice pet now ^^ I really like the Camouflage Elephante actually, and unlike some other Camo pets (I'm looking at you, Ixi), it could actually be camouflaged. The sandy colour scheme works extremely well, since elephants (African ones anyway) live in sandy climates. And I think the shape of the colour splotches looks nice, and I think they work well being quite small, rather than the huge patches that some pets have.

Invisible, well, yeah...

Ohh this is quite lovely! This is probably my single favorite pet that's been released since customization!
Elephants did benefit from their new pose, and colors work really really well. I think the color of the hat clashes with the body though. Maybe it would have worked better in a deep camo style green.

What is with all the new colors lately? Or ... what seems to me like a lot of new colors, anyway, but I don't think I'm imagining it. Anyway, the camouflage is quite nice. The colors are appropriate, understated and interesting, and the Elephante does look really good these days. Invisible is even more of a nonevent now than it was before.

There's just been a lot of pet days closely together, Twofold Black.
I don't think we've had any random colors for awhile.

Wow! That's the best invisible pet yet! :P

I really do like the camo elephante. The colors are lovely and also quite unique. At first when I read "camo and invisible" I assumed the 'phantes were getting the short stick on colors, as so often happens, but this looks like they actually put some effort into it. Very nice!

Aah. I'm not paying close enough attention to Neopets anymore to notice when pet days roll around, and I'm way out of the groove, so to me it all looked random.

I still fail to understand why TNT even has the invisible color in the first place... I suppose you can do more with it now because of custimization though.

Camo. The smaller splotches are nice as well as the fact it's at least somewhat realistic. But honestly, I don't like the new camo too much. However, I must sadly admit at risk of sounding very juvenile that the first impression I got from this colorsceme was that it looked like "vomit" and not "sand." I really hope that is simply the effect of the rather odd monitor I use...

Actually, Invisible isn't as good as you'd think it is, since Invisible pets layer over their items. It did give me an interesting idea for an Invisible Mynci wearing the Halloween Mask and Sickle, but other than that it's not great. Going on that note, it could be assumed the Elephante's Invisible... hat... thingy would layer over a normal Elephante and give the impression of a pushed-in head. Nice. As for Camo, it's a good colour, and the camo actually looks 3D, so, good for it, I say!

Why on earth are they even releasing invisible pets anymore! I think it's just laziness on their part, as they only had to colour one pet for Elephante Day. A bit of a swizz if you ask me - who was honestly reading the news thining 'God, I hope they release an INVISIBLE Elephante today."

Camouflage is lovely however, probably the best out of all Camouflage pets in my opinion.

I know that the Cam colours of the Elephante are desert Cam colours. But did anyone else immediatly think

'Oh! Now it can hide amongst the peanuts!'

Wow, the camo elephant is lovely. Desert camo for a desert pet. And the camo looks 3d for once. *approves*

I am actually amused at the idea of a Camo Elephante in the Peanut suit. :P

But them, I'm easily amused. :D

The Camo Elephante is very nice. The Elephante is one of the few pets that looks better post-customization, but I still hate that fist!

As for Invisible; TNT thinks they're funny, but they're not. I wish they'd at least put some kind of thin aura outline for these pets. It's seriously a waste of a color. It should really go the way of Stone and Glass.

Nobody seems to understand. Invisible was released on a random holiday, and that day happened to be Invisible. It was a random colour that was funny. Eventually it became a cop-out for TNT to only release two colours per pet day (Ha! Three! Such a large number!) and one Invisible pet. So, it was pretty much an extended joke. Now, though? It's better, because you have the whole Invisible Pets with items thing! Seriously, a Mynci face-shaped mask floating with a sickle, what could be better?
