Ohh, I think you should try with this one. She looks so much better with the touch of different color. I like how wings pop up now.

So I suspect the evolution should be okay now? x3 I'd just have to think of a different name, I called her "Little Blue", but... that doesn't quite fit anymore xD

My knuffel was rejected twice because it didn't evolve enough "-.-
And I don't know what to fix up!

Knuffel here

I don't think it's just about fixing something up. More that you need to actually make her become something. They have to gradually change from one thing to another. Not just get dressed up along the way.

The only thing that changes is her clothes while she herself stays the same... She needs to change. Like become a cat, fairy, etc, etc. ^_^

Adding to what TimTam said: I think her dress's messed up too: longer in 3th stage, shorter in 4th, long again in 5th. It's not evolution. The changes between 3-4 and 4-5 seem small too. And her hair's pretty, but making them stay the same through 5 stages you make all stages look very alike.

I totally overlooked the dress length change. o.o Pardon me, it's been a long day. -_-

Thank you for the nice responses ^^
I'll try to figure something out.

My Knuffel weren't rejected, but because I'm working A LOT on these 4 I have to ask before finish them... I already asked some time ago on the wild knuffel thread, were people post spoilers, and someone said me that they should be ok, but now someone other gave me another time the doubt... So, the question is: can these bases be ok, for the proportions problem? I know that they are larger than the classic one, but it is because they have a totally different form... I tried to leave a good space on each side for all of them...
Because other people have different opinion, it would be really really useful and calming for me if I could have an answer from Firn, if possible... I know that you are pretty busy, but may I ask you what do you think, please?
Thank you!

    Eylis, maybe you can answer your question yourself after reading the posts on the first post of this page:

      4. Proportions

      Your Knuffel must fill out the 300 x 377 pixel proportionally!
      →The base of your Knuffel must leave a margin around all sides. It should not end right at the end of the image, but should also not leave an significant amount of space or a significant amount of space unfilled:

      Image

      Image

      Your Knuffel's base including hair (hair can go further to the sides) in the first stage should fill out about this area, not much less and not much more. The areas around the marked square should only be filled during further evolutions:

      Image


      - I advice everyone against using non-chibi bases, as they will be rejected in 95% of all cases because they cannot fill out the image in proportion.

      - If you need more space for things like big wings or other aspects of your Knuffel during its evolution you may use up all the space, up to the edge! However, the base=body should always leave a margin around all sides, which is neither too small nor too big (see images). This includes merging to all sides, which means your base should neither be too thin, nor too thick, nor too short or too long.


    I do believe that I explained it very detailed, but since people still seem to have problems understanding it maybe this will help:

    The last 2 are pushing the rules already very far and are not how I would like Knuffel to be proportioned in the image, but I would most likely turn a blind eye to it and still accept them.
    There is no way to agree that the first two are in proportions though, even if I turn two blind eyes on it.



    I also have a question: I really thought that the text on the first page was really clear on this and especially the images I put up there made it absolutely clear that Knuffel as these would not be accepted.
    However, you did not seem to understand it and many other users also don't.
    Do you have any tips for me to make it more understandable? Like, what kind of text or images would you have needed there to understand what I tried to explain to you? Or is it maybe still not understandable?
    I really do not know how to explain it better with words and illustrations than I already did.

Actually, I have a question for both of you in that regard.

@Eylis
Are you planning on making the changes go out more or are there just going to be changes on the main body?

@Firn
If she only has main changes on the body, would it still be accepted since that box is there as buffer for making evolution changes? If the base stays generally the same, it wouldn't really differ from a knuffel whose final stage ends up being that size.
