Should Acara BattleDome Poses Get a Revamp?

Thu Aug 19, 2004 8:42 pm

Recently it was said in the news that it has come to the attention of Neopets that the Kacheek BattleDome poses need a revamp. While Kacheeks really do need this, I wanted to ask opinions on the possible revamp of another pet whose BattleDome images are extremely out-of-date. This other pet is the Acara. With my main battling pet being an Acara, I've certainly noticed this. Actually the close attack pose closely resembles the old Acara, seen below:

See what I mean?
And the Hit pose, below, is very ugly, I think. It, too, doesn't fit in with the rest of the current Acara poses. It even has an old style hit-flash thing beside it (similar to the soon to be revamped Kacheek BattleDome poses):

I'm not saying the whole Acara should be revamped, just these old BattleDome poses. It would be much better for those who fight with Acaras, and it would give them a more updated look for the BattleDome.

I think the whole Acara should be revamped, as with any front-facing pet.

Hm, those poses really are inconsistent. They should really look more like this:

The normal colours seem to look like the old version from the "four-leggedness"...they should change them to look more like they stand up on two legs.

I agree. I dont want it to look like it stands on two legs,because thats is kind of weird for them.

My main (BD and normal) pet is an Acara too..

Yes, definitely. My main pet is an acara and the poses look horrible!

What's more, has anyone else ever noticed...

That Brown, Checkered, Cloud, Maraquan and Orange Acaras still use the dodgy old ranged attack style?

But I agree, they do.

And some of the current BD poses have NO shading at all...:o

Those poses don't even look like they belong on the neopets site. I definitely think they could use a re-do. They look like something someone might have made as a placeholder, and then forgot to redraw so it looks professional. It seems a shame, as there are so many great artists, who make such outstanding pets/poses, that these have been overlooked.

Dude, the old ranged attack pose looks like they're constipated!

Yeah, they need a revamp. Badly.

My thoughts exactly.

Some of the poses are alright, especially the recently drawn ones, but the BD poses desperately need a revamp. Along with several other pets :P

Lovely. Leave it to Zero to do/say something disgusting.

And yes, the Acara battledome poses need a revamp. It'd be great if they revamped the whole pet, but just battledome poses would be okay for now.

*is still disturbed by Zero's statement* Ugh....

That's my job! :D You don't even want to know what I would say about the Gwontek Melon... :roflol:

I mean... NO MORE OFFTOPICNESS UNLESS YOU'RE ON TOPIC IN THE REST OF THE POST!!! XP

Yes, now that you mention it. It needs re-done rather badly.

Thu Sep 02, 2004 7:52 pm

Ew, Zero. --; Even though I have to agree.

Yeah, they do need a revamp. They're rather ugly like that, and yeah they do look like the old acaras.
