Description
So this is pretty much what you can expect of the "new" Valenx
. Obviously, this particular one is still rather modest in detail. I may get more elaborate with body accessories on other elements depending on whether or not I think it suits them.This will be the only element I'm going to upload for now, I will work on a couple of others whenever I have time in the future and present them in batches of around 4 individuals to auction off. Unless you think it's a better idea to auction them off individually?

I do really like this one better : )
I may fit for individual auction, too.

I love the new look, but you may want to vary the colors a bit more. The whole two-toned thing is a little... drab. Maybe mix it up? Do some wacky ones!
Here's an example of an adoptable I ran, years back.

Lots of unique colors, despite the similar base, made a lot of people like them.

Thanks, and thanks for the suggestion but I think that's really personal preference
For this particular one I didn't want to add too much colour because well.. it's copper. So I wanted it to retain a "copper-y" feel. I'm going to work on making the individuals more unique by their accessories more than coloration, although the colorations will not look much alike either

Awesome drawing, looking forward to seeing more of this species XD

I think I preferred the more streamline cuteness of the old version. But I do like the scale work on this one.

Yeah the others were definitely more cute

I love the face. It's like a lionesque reptile.

It's wonderful! I really like it as an adult, but it's nice that buyers now have both references for their new characters. If they pay attention to the slight changes from one to the other, I bet they could even predict what a very, very old Valenx would look like.
The texture on the body, both the shine and the scales, really make this Valenx unique. I'm also happy to see you kept the accessories to a minimum with this guy, otherwise I think it might have been too much to look at.
Lastly, I absolutely LOVE that you picked an actual element from the periodic table! I'm a biology major and taking chemII at the moment, so this sort of thing just makes me SO giddy. 83 Even though I can't buy one from you, I would LOVE to see some more of these guys from the periodic table. You could even reflect the size trend of the elements' atoms in the size of the Valenx! 
Keep up the good work! And sorry for the wall of text. >>;

A very old Valenx? I can't help but picture a rather saggy creature, haha xD.
Thank you so much :3. I'm really glad you like the way it's been colored, and the element I chose! It's funny that you should mention the periodic table because I'm actually going to do a couple of other elements from there (silver, gold and carbon)
That's fine, I actually really enjoy elaborate comments! Thank you! <3

That's awesome! Carbon should be an interesting one, especially, considering it's multiple structures. I can't wait! ^-^

And the fact that if compressed hard and long enough, carbon turns into diamond

Aww, he's so cute! I really like how you draw paws, his paws look so cute and squishy XD And great work on the anatomy overall, it looks very believable, if that's the right word for it. XD

Aw thank you! ^^ I'm glad you think so!

Definately an improvement! While I liked the others (otherwise I wouldn't have wanted to adopt one!), I really like that they now look less cartoony and more adult. Would it be alright to draw my adopted Valenx in this style instead?

Of course!

I love it so muuuch! This is going to be damn exiting with the different styles! ^O^

Those ears! It's a good idea to make them more varied, I think you're doing a good job already.

They still look naked! Will they ever have fur?
š: 0 ā©: 1
Yes, as said before, they will get fur, feathers, scales or plates as I see fit for the element. This one will have small scales and probably horns

Certainly different from the chibi like versions the adoptables were, but I like the two styles in comparison.

I adore the way you draw paws- it's something I've always loved about the creatures you make- no matter how small it is 
Anyways- he's honestly pretty adorable

There's definitely going to be a silver, perhaps a gold too

Some elements will get fur, feathers, scales or plates as I see fit for them

May we draw ours like this, then? Because I am absolutely loving it!

Yes, I suppose you could see this as an "adult" version
