Sorry for the delay everyone! But we all worked hard on these and we hope you like them. c: -showers everyone with confetti and sprinkles-

*rolls in it* woooo~

They're all very nice but, I don't really like any except Lionel's Pride. Still, they're all of a very high quality and I'm happy to see what this month's DIs are :3. Congratulations to all those involved in their creation, everyone did a magnificent job :3.

>w</ im just going to drop the Lionel's item design here if you guys want to see

Okay I am going to put my view on this months items... I'll try and be gentle. =P

Invidentia - When I seen this item the first thing I thought was "wth..." and to be honest I still am, this item is definitely not my cup of tea though, this being said it does have some saving graces. I like the top and the corset poses as well as the hair. Everything else I am unsure what to say about it. Then again when I first seen the name I thought of the sin of envy not of a mutated snake person.

Keeper of the Slain - I don't think I have anything bad really to say about this item. On the first pose it caught my eye and thought how badly I wanted this item. The colors in general are eye pleasing. I think the wings are a little over bearing however. When I seen 'Keeper of the slain' I thought 'Valkyrie, finally' though this isn't what was delivered fully. It certainly brought some of those aspects that I had want forward.

Lionel’s Pride - This is another I actually quite liked the look of, not as badly as the 'Keeper of the Slain' but a very close second. The colors where appealing once again, though some of the poses didn't make sense and others seemed extremely flat.

Invidentia: Uh... I have no idea what this even is... I like the sea dragon lizard thing wrapped around the neck though... Everything else isn't my cup of tea. But it was all very nicely pixel'd.

Keeper of the Slain: I have the admit, probably my most favorite designed item this year. But I'll probably never wear it. The weird color gradient in the item, the poses that will never fit outside the item (for now...), and the lack of proper man booby bra item (YOU GAVE US THIS UGLY BARE CHESTED PUKE COMPARED TO THE AMAZINGLY DETAILED CRYSTAL BOOBY BRA!) I do love the unique coloring though, it really sets it apart from most items. Oh and... I DEMAND A PROPER AMAZINGLY DETAILED CRYSTAL BOOBY BRA FOR MALE AVATARS DARN IT!

Lionel's Pride: It looked so much better on paper... (I hate it when that happens...) The pixel's are extremely flat (sorta like how mine look xD) There isn't much I could go on about this...

XD I suppose none of you have ever heard of the Green eyed monster.

I want that hair
OuO

I have heard of the green eyed monster, a.k.a envy. I enjoy reading about all the deadly sins, however, the Invidentia has the green part and the monster part... it just doesn't go together to scream envy. It kinda screams Medusa on account of all the snakes.

And what would personify envy to you?

Envy to me is wanting something that another has, be it an item, a relationship, looks, wealth, power, property. It's extremely hard to make that sin into an item... so I kind of understand falling back on the whole 'green eyed monster' cliché of snakes as Medusa was envious of the beauty others.

I suppose I'll post my side of the Valk designs.
