Artist's Comments

You know that line in the Corpse Bride, where all of the dead are coming out into the town, and one old lady suddenly recognises one of the dead people as her husband, and is like, "BUT YOU'VE BEEN DEAD FOR X YEARS"

and he replies with, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." (And gone with the wind, obv.)

This is something like that... but without the kiss after the line. xD

I understood and respected that the old DM kumos was much beloved, but it needed a change. Even the people who loved the kumos understood that. Most of them decided beforehand that they were going to like it. I did my best to preserve the old one, but still make it new. Whether or not you guys are happy with it... Well, that's another story. I'm pleased with myself, because I know I did my best for both sides. I'm alright with knowing that 90% of old kumos owners are probably changing their pet right now.

I've done my part. I did my best during production. Now that it is released, I don't have anything else to do for it. If you love it, great, if you don't, that's just fine. It isn't going to hurt my feelings. :heart:

[link] ~ It rocks :D

[link] That does too.
:iconkamagoro:
This Kumos is about x20 billion times better then the old one. I just made one for myself.
:iconzoshi:
Seriously? This totally rocks.
You kept the overall look, there's the long legs, that feeling of perspective, that it's standing just slightly above you looking down.
The body just looks so much more powerful now,the structure and everything. There's more force to it. :D

OH AND I LOVE THE TAIL FOR SOME REASON. <3 I don't know why that's capslocked, but there we go. Awesome.

"You know, you guys are really giving off a negative human energy. We prefer to take our darkness somewhere else, per se."
"Okay Count Fagula, you go do that."
:iconkatakire:
thank you for the much needed revamp. I knew you would do a wonderful job and you blew past my expectations of what it would look like. Great job. my fav is the little dark matter orb by his face, it looks so angry and cute =D

In my opinion because of the whole fuss i would have called for a whole new pose but i understand loads of people were in love with the pose. its a great pose.

anyway nice job, love the anatomy and shading. you did great.

I actually considered a whole new pose. I wondered if it would be better to make something of my own, than to possibly imitate something else, and fail. In the end, I was content with keeping the same pose. I actually wanted to change the had angle, myself, but the general CD consensus was that changing the head changed the emotion too much. Ah well!

Thanks. And I had fun making the little DM attempt to be intimidating with the kumos. xD

Life is not about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.

-comments on really old art because is often a lazy procrastinator.- (sorry. XD)
:iconkatakire:
really?! well you were put in a tough spot, honestly i admire you, I myself would have refused to do the revamp because of the stress from all the DM kumos fans. I would have been so afraid but thats my problem, i try so hard to please others with my art that i guess i don't try hard enough to please myself.

Whoa, ok you did an amazing job. I was one of those people who have decided that they would like the new kumos weather it changed poses or not but you did a really good job. seems people really do approve with all the comments ive read.

ROFL you did a great job Arbor wtf why is this apparently fat to everyone xDDDDD LOL

The siggy works!!!
:iconaquamizuko:
Awesome job as always, Arbor!

I'm amused at the people that think it's fat. The old one either had stilt legs or no organs.
