Hello, again.

For the past week while I was recovering from my neck thing. I actually have been writing the devlog for a while. Apparently I didn't save while my laptop shut down. So uh... I have to write everything all over again, and I may have forgotten some details. 

So, about the 3 designs for Tenki from last devlog. I think the objective here is to cover all the general preference from everyone, so, design 1 is closer to the original design, with the difference that he now has a snout and his chin is noticeably more defined. The second one, is an alternate draft for design 1. Adding in hair, while the horn seems a little different. The third one is a more matured look for Tenki. He's a little more smug, generally a gruff look with beard. For the three design, I have been aiming for more of a (top) (dominant) route for Tenki that'd make sense. After all, the game is made for all preferences, in the "furry" "bara" genre. I think the original design comes off as too cute, while I'd love a cute protagonist, I think the cute style didn't match as closely as other masculine characters. I think with the 3 designs, it came with a spectrum of aesthetic choices that doesn't only stem from a specific feature, but also the vibe the look gives off.So, after asking you guys from a few different platforms, I've set up two coloured draft. One more resembling of the design 3 above. Another resembling design 1.

The pose is pretty similar to the original design, there isn't much changed except for the head and the chest hair. Just to give him more of a fluffy look. I did another poll for this, and the result was much more dividing than the last one. Surprisingly, the first design didn't win in the patreon, but it did win in the discord server. Although I really do respect patron's opinion, I have to come forward that, I love design 1 much more, there's a few reason as to why I chose design 1 afterall, First is versatility, although, I think he's leaning more towards dominant dude in this design, he still provides a certain cute aspect, design 2, sells on the cute part but I think he might not satisfy the top fantasy, just like how the original design didn't. And I really want to overhaul it, not to make the same mistake. After all the game is made for both top and bottom of the same barrel. Second reason, is the anatomy, which is how I draw, I find drawing hair much easier to center the horn and character in a way that can be pretty precise, and with a large area on design 2, it feels pretty awkward to draw, so I went with the hair, he's so fluffy now. So, I'm sorry to really disappoint anyone who liked the second design. I know, my mind was made when I made the two drafts, I just wanted to see how people reacted to it, but I really wish that I've made the right choice.

Here's his official look:

So here he is, the majestic dragony looking Tenki, I've adjusted with his colour, added a few markings and made his snout bigger. It's pretty fun, to actually draw the design out and feel the difference. Thank you everyone so much for following his development. I know it's been a short time. But I really do hope you're gonna like MC much more now!

For the arrangement with redrawing, I'm looking forward to redraw everyone CG involving Tenki (Which is every CG except for Sebas/Cane), I've already had a few in my hand. But the ultimate goal is, replacing every Old Tenki with New Tenki Look in the next 3-5 patches, in the meantime, the old CG that was not remade yet will remain in the game.

(itch is lagging because I pasted too many pics... and I forgot what I wanted to write because it takes 10 years to write a sentence, so I'm ending the devlog here :p )

I'm also planning for a gallery function for the next update, it'll only include the reworked CGs though.

Here's a few CGs that I'm working on. Just to end the devlog :3 Enjoy!
