Glacier Telenine Revamp!
Posted by SubetaTeam
Awesome revamp of the revamp LOL. Much needed, and really perfects an already-awesome revamp!
the revamp absolutely surpasses the old one, but i wish it looked more fierce and aloof, it seems too soft
This is a pretty solid revamp. I will admit that the tail looked kinda off, but thanks to Akita, that simple fix has been made. Thanks Akita, and thanks again, staff. Hopefully you guys will take suggestions like this into consideration more often.
THE EDIT MAKES IT SO MUCH BETTER thank you so much!! q v q
it's lovely to see criticism being taken into account to improve revamps~

Oh my god, seriously amazing what just a small edit can do -- I really love the changes! Thank you for taking our (and Akita's especially) into consideration and tweaking :D
Super impressed by staff having the willingness and humility to tweak an issue that clearly stuck out to a lot of people post-release.
I wasn't expecting the art to be tweaked. This has won me back over and Noel has been turned back. Thank you. :)
Whoa, what an improvement! Those legs look so much more natural in their positioning now (the old design's right back leg didn't look quite "right" to me, when compared to the rest of the pose - now it looks like it's comfortable walking), and the fur (and of course the shading) looks much more realistic :D
After looking it over I'm agreeing the tail is in an awkward position. It looks like instead of being attached at the spine it's attached lower down to the underside/belly. This is in turn making that back far leg look pasted on (or that it has a leg growing out of its butt along with the tail...), in fact the tail looks pasted on as well.
Other than that, I kind of like it. It'll have to grow on me, or the back end getting tweaked, before I decide to change Noel back though.

Love the fluff and the shading. The tail does seem to be set a bit too low on the rear, and I see what other folks are saying about the muzzle. The fang tips are definitely at a different angle than the eyes, making the nose look tilted away from the viewer more than the rest of the head.
The camel gait, with both left feet forward at the same time, will take a bit of getting used to.., seems odd for a canine. But overall this is a great improvement.

While the snout and tail would benefit from tweaking (re-positioning) as others have mentioned, the rest of the revamp is really fantastic! Beautiful fluffy fur, lovely ice feature details and markings, and all around great shading! I wouldn't mind seeing the new (and much improved) eye design stand out even more by reverting back to white, and a frosty puff of breath would be a great addition to the new mouth (which appears to be exhaling). Very, very lovely work and I have my fingers crossed that the artist will consider some minor tweaks to take this design from great to excellent.
This is actually one of the few times that I can truly say... I like the revamp better than the original... nice work!
Eh, this one really doesn't fit the look of the character I picked it for anymore. I'm not a big fan of these expression changes every revamp, it doesn't feel safe to spend a lot on a color/species that may change later anyway. =/ (Also, the eye isn't white anymore. :( )
<-- Old ... New --> 
Lovin' that floof! I do agree with the sentiment that the tail is a bit odd (I think it's smaller than most teles?) and I miss the little breath puff, but otherwise a great improvement to a pet who needed it. c:
Tail is a bit too low (growing out of the exit door), but other than that the updated art is great!
I like it but the only small issue I have is... the hind leg at the back there looks really awkward.... to me it throws the whole pose off, otherwise, I do like the revamp. c:
I love this version. :) I think the artist did a great job updating it. Usually I'm on the other side of the fence lol.. where I have the pet already and don't like the revamp haha. but this time I don't have it and now would consider it. Revamps are hard - artists are brave.
I'm usually open to art updates, especially with how many awesome ones there have been as of late, but I'm just not feeling this one. The body adjustments are great - I love the extra fluff and the edits to the markings - but the personality just feels different from the old one and I'm not sure whether it suits what I was going for with my pet anymore which makes me a little sad. Anyhow, personal preferences aside, great job on the improvements! :)
I admit that the art is definitely an improvement, but I've got mixed feelings on this one. Something just seems off. I think it may be the face? Or the stance? He looks more...cautious or worried now.
I like the new art better, but the pic above on my pc is the old one. I had to go look in SubetaLodge. lol If we have a glacier telenine already, how do we change it to the new art without having to use another potion?
While the overall art quality is a vast improvement, and I absolutely love the Telenines, this one is just not my favourite. I've owned my Glacier Telenine for so long that I was kind of anticipating its revamp soon, but the face and hind end just kind of look off to me...
I really like this revamp. I've got a ton of Telenines and was waiting for this revamp before getting a Glacier one. I'm really happy to see it have proportions more like a German Shepherd. Reminds me of my old dog a lot-- and because of that I'm happy to see it looks less frightened. The old art's expression always made me feel slightly uncomfortable. I'm also very happy to see the symbols actually match the other Glacier pets now finally! lols. Such a cute pupperoni. TY TY C:
The more I look at it the more I feel like the angle of the snout is kinda strange. But maybe that's just me...
Well and the overall look seems to have changed from regal to... I don't know, maybe worried? I also agree with the person who said it's cuter now and I am not sure if I am really a fan of this trend.

Because the pose is more relaxed and its paws are softly reaching it lost the aloof feeling that came with the stiffer, over extended limbs and the paws being firmly on the ground. This makes the body feel relaxed and sloping rather and erect and aloof. It also looks like when the artist drew the tail it didn't fit into the square canvas, so rather than reposing it they just moved it in. It's a definite improvement in terms of line, color and anatomy, but loses a lot of the expression due to subtle changes in the pose.
Thank you for the edit! :)
