Glacier Ontra

I actually love it! I'm seriously debating on it for my 10th pet, but I had my heart set on the Glacier Mahar when it came out if I liked it, hm.

My only complaint is that the tail looks odd. I think it should have overlapped the front paw more like it was behind/beneath the tail.

Glacier Ontra

It's better than some of the other Glacier pets, but not as good as the almighty Donadak, in my humble opinion. Maybe because I don't like Ontras in general. Anyway, it doesn't look stoned, I don't see anything that's obviously broken, and the light-blue patterns on the upper arms/legs, while hard to see, look pretty nice. What do you guys think?

I love it!!! Keshi is seriously good at these Ontras, I've loved all the redraws, and this is one of my favorites. I think the pose is very nice, and I love it's expression, the eyes are especially good. The ice on the whiskers is a nice touch and I like the subtle markings, me thinks I need one.

As Mayhem already mentioned, the paw/tail part does look a bit weird, but other than that I think it's excellent!

Erm, yes... copy-pasted from the other thread as well. xD;

I agree; it's pretty nice overall. Just kind of hard to say anything about it because, well... it's an Ontra. Not much to say about it because I don't really like them. I like that it's not oozing with as much drippy frost as some of the other Glacier pets.

Though the angle at which the back leg is pointing out kind of bugs me. My eyes go straight to it every time I look at the picture.

This is the first Ontra I've really liked. In fact, it's probably the only Ontra i like now. I like the pose, and the expression, but well... it's an Ontra.

It's forehead is ginormous, which has always been my biggest complaint with ontras, but here it seems to be extra huge. And I think it's tail looks really, really odd... also, I'm sad because the little glacier swirlies are really hard to see here for some reason, and that's my favorite part of glacier pets ;_;

So it is the first ontra I've liked, and therefor my favorite ontra, but it's really not saying much, cause... it's an ontra xD;

SEC--I merged the posts and then realized you'd posted on both. In the future, if you know it's a duplicate topic, you can delete it on your own.

Ontra--well, it's nice, for an Ontra. Not my thing. But I really like its eyes, especially.

I actually like pretty much everything on this, it has enough ice on the body ( I especially like it on the whiskers)
and the pose actually looks pretty nice and proportionate, i'm also not too much of an ontra fan but for those
who do like them, I think they're quite happy with this glacier pet c:

Only thing that does bother me it the tail, the way it's shaded makes me think it's twisting and almost going
under it's right leg, maybe it's just me though XD.

I actually just turned my Glacier Donadak into this. ^_^' I love the Donadak, but this fit Sphere's personality better.

The tail looked a little wonky to me as well, for what I think is the same reason as Heilos (I had trouble telling if the tail was beneath the right foot or next to it), but I love the Ontra's expression and the colors and the overall pose and... well, pretty much everything else about this pet.

It's actually really nice, for an Ontra. :3

My only complaint is the tail. The shading doesn't match up with the body's. Like... they don't have the same light source or something. But other than that, I like it.

Not a pet Id own, but it is very nicely drawn. Especially love the eyes.

Im only bothered by this, I circled it. The tail and paw line come way too close together, so it looks like its under the foot.

I really love this ontra, and if I were going to get an ontra, it'd have to be glacier. The coloring and markings are very nice. I love those eyes. The shading on the tail does bother me a little, but that's not a big deal. Very nice artwork overall. :D

Although it looks like it's above the tail, it's really not! The size makes it seem so..

I only just realised the shading on the tail, and I am embarrassed that I never noticed it before D:

Thanks though! I am surprised and thrilled at all the good feedback this has gotten, despite the flaws c:

It's lovely Keshi :) I don't like Ontra's as a whole, but this is a lovely example of the species, right there behind Angelic. You've done a great job on Ontra redraws lately!

The tail/paw is a little strange I do agree. The markings are lovely though, the one on the shoulder resembles a snowflake (at least in my mind)!

I think its lovely. The face is adorable with the big eyes and the little squeezed up mouth. I can see the slight oddity about the front paw/tail but it doesn't overly bother me because the face remains the focus in my eyes.

Close up of the tail, if some are still confused xD

It's nice to see that even those who don't like Ontras are enjoying this c:
