I didn't like this art style. Seems not finished at all, not shiny. I think Feggle is the best one, just a pity there's only one stage...

elluwah • 1 Jul 2013, 7:27 AM

Aww I was hoping I'd love the creatures in my birthday month but I really don't. It's been a while since I last felt like that.

whispers • 1 Jul 2013, 7:59 AM

Ew. This style isn't pleasing to the eye. And the Feggle and Pogknot look very poor and done by a beginner :/

puppymaks • 1 Jul 2013, 8:16 AM

@Ian Did we get new artist? None of these creatures don't have shine, and they are like... IDK. they are so dark when looking them...

Happy July, Egg Cave!

sophia123 • 1 Jul 2013, 8:32 AM

got a pogknot!and will buy a miros! welcome july^^

misty_rose_ • 1 Jul 2013, 9:30 AM

Tiger is cute but not the fondest of the others.

littlepuffyball • 1 Jul 2013, 9:49 AM

I agree with the majoirty of people. I honestly haven't seen CSPs that I would even consider buying since Christmas.

littlepuffyball • 1 Jul 2013, 9:50 AM

The art style, while unique, isn't very pleasing. It would seem we have a new artist as @newlife says? I don't like it much.

takaedakumi • 1 Jul 2013, 9:52 AM

The artist that did the Cave ones... the creatures don't seem very... hmmmm, professional? I don't mean to say they're terrible but they-

takaedakumi • 1 Jul 2013, 9:53 AM

don't have the same effect as all the others. There's no gleam on the eggs even and the Feggle egg is like the circles were stamp effects.

littlepuffyball • 1 Jul 2013, 9:55 AM

I agree with @takatheeducatedkid. They're not horrible, just rough looking, like not much care or time went into them? Just my opinion.

takaedakumi • 1 Jul 2013, 9:57 AM

Also I'm thinking on just trashing all the work I put into creature suggestions. Seriously, why do I waste my time when they won't even-

takaedakumi • 1 Jul 2013, 9:59 AM

be considered for use? I'm really disappointed with Egg Cave right now, it's just one big fat half-butt job. No offense.

takaedakumi • 1 Jul 2013, 10:00 AM

I mean, I love Egg Cave, don't get me wrong, but it's in a slump, and I really want to see it get better. D;

bubblez • 1 Jul 2013, 10:00 AM

I really like the concept of the Miros & Riggert, but the art is different ;-; But it seems the cave ones were done last night & rushed ;-;

bubblez • 1 Jul 2013, 10:01 AM

Not very much thought went into them D:

littlepuffyball • 1 Jul 2013, 10:02 AM

I agree with Taka again, I put work into my art, just for it to be overlooked? I'll give mine to some other site at this point.

sprite • 1 Jul 2013, 10:49 AM

User suggestions are just that..suggestions. They are not a guarantee you will be picked or that they have to be used every month 😉

arlequinn • 1 Jul 2013, 11:19 AM

The art style of the CS monthlies is really different this time, but I kinda like it - they're way more beautiful than the cave monthlies.

siberian • 1 Jul 2013, 11:31 AM

@takatheeducatedkid agreed. I loved the Tiger and Elephant ideas, but I didn't like any of the July creatures this time ☹️

wallie987 • 1 Jul 2013, 11:36 AM

Liked last month's cave monthlies sooooo much better! ☹️

bot • 1 Jul 2013, 11:39 AM

@takatheeducatedkid =x= I feel the same way. AYEEEEE. I really do like the ideas, but who's doing the ART!? No offense, but IT SUCKS.

siberian • 1 Jul 2013, 11:40 AM

@bubblez True! ☹️

faybaybay • 1 Jul 2013, 11:48 AM

The art doesn't suck.Its good art! Just not up to egg cave standards nowadays.Although the shading on the pognot and feggle is very beginner

mrsgiggles • 1 Jul 2013, 11:49 AM

Just because you draw something for suggestion, that doesn't mean Ian is obliged to respond or use it.

brad • 1 Jul 2013, 12:15 PM

Alright, now that I have a min to look at them and my eyes aren't bleeding out tired I can actually day what I think about them. 😋

brad • 1 Jul 2013, 12:16 PM

I honestly do not like the art style. :/ I love tigers, but I really don't like any of the CSMs. Last month it seemed like the art style

chowchow2012 • 1 Jul 2013, 12:16 PM

@faybaybay I agree some of these cave monthlies still look like WIPs, I appreciate these new crits and all but I feel like the art isn't---

brad • 1 Jul 2013, 12:17 PM

started changing, but they were still acceptable. All of May and back, I really liked, but the last 2 months haven't been favorites. :/

chowchow2012 • 1 Jul 2013, 12:17 PM

All that amazing, I think it could use more shine and perspective

brad • 1 Jul 2013, 12:19 PM

I'm just hoping that since EC's b-day is this month, they put work into other things and didn't have too much time working on these. 😋

sophia123 • 1 Jul 2013, 12:27 PM

@o_o i hope so too!^^

pirran • 1 Jul 2013, 12:51 PM

The original artist never came through on the art and I had five hours to do all of the cave pets for this month. My usual art is better.

pirran • 1 Jul 2013, 12:52 PM

And yes, I am new. Just saddened at the rough comments on the artwork.

bot • 1 Jul 2013, 12:57 PM

@duchess I know, the coloring for the cave monthlies looks like a twelve-year-old did it... With WATER COLOR. I'm so disappointed...

Meteoroid • 1 Jul 2013, 12:59 PM

@bot @anyoneelse Please be civil with your comments in regards to today's creatures.

solaris • 1 Jul 2013, 1:10 PM

None for me from the Cave today! I used my tries last night while I was half asleep, so when I woke up this morning, I thought I still...

solaris • 1 Jul 2013, 1:10 PM

...had tries left! I was momentarily confused when it said I had used them. 😋

silverserpent • 1 Jul 2013, 1:27 PM

Uhm... Nope. Not my kind of creatures this month. I love tigers, but sadly the style is not Egg Cave-ish at all. (Sorry.)

wallie987 • 1 Jul 2013, 1:27 PM

@pirran The art's ok, it's just that I don't think many people are willing to pay for the creatures anymore - EC seems to be running dry...

pirran • 1 Jul 2013, 1:30 PM

@wallie987 I didn't do the CS pets, just the cave ones. I don't know who did the cash ones (perhaps the artist whom I was filling in for).

wallie987 • 1 Jul 2013, 1:36 PM

@pirran Oh, but even so, it's still good for a rush job. 😸 But I'm scared of wasps. xP

pirran • 1 Jul 2013, 1:47 PM

@wallie987 You could think of it as a cricket with wings and a glowing butt? 😋

lady_kassandra • 1 Jul 2013, 1:53 PM

Miros looks interesting)

iulianna1 • 1 Jul 2013, 2:01 PM

Ugh... Not really pleased with the art style >.< the cave monthlies look kinda basic...

banana • 1 Jul 2013, 2:05 PM

I like the CS creatures, but the first and second stage Pogknot.... is to me very dissapointing from what we have had before ☹️

kiti • 1 Jul 2013, 2:10 PM

Hey, new artist, our last artist always came through. She was given suggestions right before the new month would begin. She is not to blame.

jess11y • 1 Jul 2013, 2:12 PM

I'm very dissapointed i was so excited for the two Cave Monthlies and they look very poor. The CSP creatures are nice though!

kiti • 1 Jul 2013, 2:13 PM

If you are upset at the comments, learn to work more efficiently with the time constraints, because Qes could. You can too. Good luck.
