Glad you and the doggo were okay. Knowing me, I would have toppled head over handlebars to avoid hitting it. Then I would have gotten up and pet the doggo.

I wish I could live in my room. But alas, I cannot. Stupid work. Stupid bills.

Vivi's one of my favorites (Although let's be honest, they are all pretty much my favorite) so I love this! Great job; I'm sure she'll be very flattered!

@Mysterious Deity: I would love it if we had the choice of layering options, to be honest. One of my other sites I'm on does and it's wonderful because you can pick and choose exactly how you want to layer everything. Voltra is still new though; there is room to grow and improve.

@anarchist beauty: I maybe sell to you at discount of 8k Volts. What say?

@Mysterious Deity: Do they not? Radishes. Maybe we should bring that up in the Pixel Perfect thread in Bug Reports. Ties should certainly layer beneath jackets. It only makes sense.

*Chuckles* Even the mods and admins can't resist a good party.

Valorous Knight
★★★✩✩

Things I Liked: Beautiful detailing on the waist cape. I loved that the set is like a proper set of armor and not chainmail bikini material.

Critiques: This is the only item I had any real qualms with. The design itself is fine, though nothing too "wow"ing; I'm not a big fan of knight stuff though so I didn't expect it to tickle my fancy. But my real issue is of the three colors combos offered for this item, none of them convey a very good "Dark Knight" feel, which I am sure a lot of the users would appreciate. Two of them are white with colored accents and only one of them is a dark color at all, and barely at that. I don't feel like it's a very good combination of colors either, to be honest. The lavender with the tea and bark (maybe?) don't seem very complimentary and also would be hard to match with other items outside of the set (Since I'm not entirely convinced the darker brown is bark at all and not it's own color not listed in the commons). I just feel like it would have been better if the third set of colors were something more traditional and easier to match with, like Coal, Storm, and Cherry perhaps? Something that would give the users a chance to take the look in a different direction.

Closing Thoughts: A chain shirt to go with the chain pants would have been nice and offered full coverage, which I do like with my suits of armor. Expansion ideas would include a banner (With perhaps the different Realm emblems!) handheld, pile of gold or loot (or a mimic), some kind of steed for our valiant knight to ride, and maybe a shield to go with that sword!

Floral Empress
★★★★✩

Things I Liked: Nice color combinations and options; I appreciate the inclusion of a "dark empress" option. Having a hand/arm mod item is really nice and I feel like the pixellation of it was well executed. The option of using the hand mods vs. regular staff was also very nice, though I wish a similar option would have been provided for the dress via sitting/standing pose. Drifting flower background is beautiful and I like the detail work with the flowers in the headdress and the staff. Nicely shaded.

Critiques: My issue with this item is very minimal; the dress pose that appears to be sitting feels like it needs more work. I don't know if the artist was trying to play on the nature theme with a sort of waterfall look with the way the dress pools at the feet, but it feels somewhat unnatural to me. Also, the "seat" of the dress seems...flat. While I'm certain there are people who were not endowed with an ample buttocks, for this item I wonder if maybe we could have put a bit more cushion in the tushion, you know?

Closing Thoughts: Very pretty rare and well done. Expansion or companion item ideas would be some kind of seat or throne for our empress to sit on (Would help the pose look a bit more natural), maybe a flower tree or plant background, a shower of flowers/petals as opposed to the drifting trail (or a trail/scattering of flowers/petals on the ground).

Victorious Captain
★★★★✩

Things I Liked: Design itself was well done, colors were nice and complimentary, and the addition of the macaws was really wonderful and well executed. I love pirate items so I was so glad to see one done here. The details were great as well; the fading in the feathers of the macaws, the gold embellishments on the hat, the delicate chain on the coat. Little details like that can really make an item.

Critiques: Hardly a critique at all, but I took off one star because I feel like rather than the eye-patch, or perhaps in addition to it, it would have been even nicer to have a ruffled shirt to go with the coat to really complete that pirate look. Not that I'm complaining about crate art of shirtless Vyctor (though he is always shirtless).

Closing Thoughts: I'd love to see this item expanded upon (or maybe a companion item released) in the future, perhaps with that ruffled shirt I mentioned, maybe a treasure chest and a spyglass or a treasure map, and maybe some kind of piratey background, like a sandy beach or a ship deck with a mast or the captain's wheel. Lots of great potential.
