Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
The Krawk is lovely, the base colour is nice and dark and the colour of the clothes sets is off very nicely. I like the touches of green on them a lot.I like the staff like thing it's carrying too, it's quite cute ^_^.
The Draik is a lovely shade of sandy brown and the sky blue on the wings os lovely, but I don't like the hat too much . The rest of the clothes are nice, though and the new pose works wonders for the Draik, makes it look a lot less busy than before.
All in all a nice couple of additions to the Lost Desert family and I hope Krawk and Draik owners are pleased with them.

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
I didn't know what to expect of two Lost Desert pets-- LD has always been an "unconventional" colour rather than a basic like Speckled or Striped, and I had anticipated it causing problems, these days. However, I'm pleasantly surprised. The Krawk has an individuality you wouldn't expect of V2. The Draik is also rather attractive, although I'm puzzled as to why it seems to be wearing a chef's hat-- is that removable? Overall, I'm mostly disappointed I'll never be able to lab either of these, as they're very attractive.
(In other news, I don't know whether to be pleased or not that they went for Krawk and Draik and overlooked the Xweetok this year. On the one hand, an LD Xweetok would be prettyful-- on the other, a story I've got on the back burner rather rests on there being no such thing.)

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
Heh, silly me I saw this title and was like 'What? Desert Krawk are already released' but then saw it was a shop keeper image, I'm glad that the colour scheme was changed, I don't like the typical, Red, Blue and Gold that the deserts have, Green and Orange, that isn't something you see every day.
I've always wanted a Krawk since I joined Neopets, but the revamp made me not like them as much, with this Krawk I like them almost as much as I did before, the eye make-up would be good on a pet, and the staff(thing) is great!
Draik.. hm. I love Draiks since the revamp, this ones blue wings are to die for, I'm sort of glad I didn't get a Royalgirl Peophin just yet, I might consider selling the PB and having 2 Million sP to start off a Draik/Krawk fund.. D: Gah, choices.
Neopets is redeeming(sp?) itself. I like that. =D
Just wondering how I would fit a Gobbler into a Draiks personality...(going for PPL) I might get a Desert Draik and just take the hat/clothes off.
Blue/Green Draik Eggs are going for 2.2 Mill atm, and Krawk TP's are going for 2.5 Mill, I suppose I can sell my Royal PB for 1.74 Mill and save for the rest, or try and find a seller interested in a royal pb. =/ -jealous of my friend sky- She already has a desert krawk and draik xD she is the draik/krawk kw33n.
I hope female desert draiks have the eyemakeup, because eyelashes normally make eye detail disappear on custom pets.

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
I like the krawk. The fist of doom doesn't look so unintentional and it could have very easily passed as a pre-custom pet. The draik, not so much. The tail rings and the coloring are fine, but the rest of its crap needs to go. Its fists o'doom are a lot sillier looking as well.
Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
These are the first post-devamp colors I've liked. Didn't see that coming.
The Krawk, especially, works well. The Draik, not as much -- but I've never been a big fan of them.

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
Ooh I got someone to try on the Royal Girl accessories on their Desert Draik. I'm not sure if I like it enough to pay for it, but it is quite pretty to look at I think, even though the purple kind of clashes.

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
I love the orange and green of the krawk. It looks bold and strong. The eye does look mad, but I could imagine a few insane characters for a desert krawk. My only problem with the blue on the draik is that, along with the white hat, it ends up reminding modern people of a nurse.
I generally like the loin cloths. Because it's head on, and you can see the boldy coloured decoration in the front, it looks very clear to me that it's supposed to be a loin cloth. (I guess it helps if you're an ancient Egypt enthusiast.)

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.

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
The Krawk is quite beautiful, and without clothing the Draik is lovely as well. I agree with the people saying these post-custom pets are awesome. Now, if only you could equip these to mutants...

I see a few nurse comments, but I've never associated blue with nurses; is there some reference I'm missing? I tend to associate them with white and red.yvonne_l_d wrote:My only problem with the blue on the draik is that, along with the white hat, it ends up reminding modern people of a nurse.
The hat reminds me a tiny bit of a bishop's hat for some reason, now that I think about it.

Oh, if only I were a - still involved with Neo and b - richy rich, I would be making myself a tiny bishop draik in a HEARTBEAT. That image makes me a lot happier than it probably should.Sayle wrote: The hat reminds me a tiny bit of a bishop's hat for some reason, now that I think about it.
Nice to see some new desert pets...two years after the LD plot. Not still bitter about that at all, nope not me. Desert was one of my favorite colors. I even had a desert themed account.

Yes, seeing them move diagonally can be very frightening.Sayle wrote:That image terrifies me, as I have a fear of bishops.

Oh second consideration, I think I'm going to indeed paint my draik desert. He's yellow now, and if I end up hating desert, its fairly cheap to return him to yellow. I'll ah...ditch the 'bishop' hat for sure though.
/edit ...least I'll make him one if/when the person who has a lot I bid on ever gets back around to logging on and accepting. ><

Re: Lost Desert Krawk and Draik
Well, I think it's that particular shade of blue which looks so clean and sterile. Plus, in Canada, there's a health related organization called the Blue Cross. Together with the white hat, it reminds me somewhat of nursing. But, it's not a strong enough association to ruin the colour for me.Sayle wrote:I see a few nurse comments, but I've never associated blue with nurses; is there some reference I'm missing?
