Ooo, that last one is pretty beastly. As well as the Ancient Turtle one. Not exactly perfect, but it could be tuned up a bit.

Went a little further with the ancient turtle skin, and added the original plating from the drakeadon skin:

I love this one!

With a little minor tweaking, I would tame this one in a heart-beat!

I adore talbuks. ;.; Enough that I leveled my rep up on at least 5 different characters.

I want this so badly. ;.; heh

Cool you go the ancient turtle skin to fit

They do look a bit weird in places but interesting to see

Kurasu asked me to try swapping regular boar and helboar skins.

They use exactly the same layout, so they map perfectly to each other. There are a few quirks in the colouring that make them not quite right for each other, but nothing major...

Boars with helboar skins. The only real issue I can see is that helboars have a bit of mane drawn on the skin around their neck so that it's continuous with their actual mane. Since regular boars have no mane, the extra bit on the neck looks weird and the head looks discontinuous with the body:

Helboars with regular boar skins. In this case the boar has a mane, but there is no extra mane drawn on the neck, which makes the mane less continuous with the body, but it's still not too bad. Apart from that, the tusks, and hence the back spikes, are all a uniform dull white, so they're not very interesting:

Oh man, that undead skin on the helboar model looks pretty grotesque (and I mean that in a completely awesome way

)!

I kind of like the helboars with azeroth boar skins. They look like kids in a school program assigned to play Abe Lincoln with a tie-on beard!

The boars with the helboar skins creep me out with the holes in their backs. ;.;

Am I the only one here who thinks the holes add a really nice touch?
otherwise I really like those helboars wit h the normal skins

Someone asked for the devilsaur skins on riding raptors this time. They fit perfectly, but I had to copy and paste the raptor reins and saddle over the skin (and give it a new alpha mask) otherwise it used parts of the raptor's body to colour the riding harness. The only unraptorlike part of its appearance is its crazy devilsaur eyes. But then the trading card mount that uses the red devilsaur skin shares this quirk.

The crazy eyes give them a wild sort of charm...
