Tbh I'd trade 3 hats and all their ugly recolors for that one alone


maybe I don't want something I feel is subpar quality when I pay 700g for a gift? Have you considered that a lot of people probably feel the same way?


Oh, and it wasn't accidental. Leah outright refused then blocked me when I complained someone else got their recolors.
She gave me nothing for a piece o submitted, then said what I got was better than nothing, bitch wtf?

Personal problems of her hating me is the reason I didn't even bother sending anything in
Will be denied anyways because this is graal, where people who suck up get further and people who admins dislike won't get anywhere even if they deserve it

i just saw few classic gfx admin's thread and i didn't leave a reply cus most of it suck ass. sorry we need coco back.

idk why people only leave 'cool, awesome etc' comments when nobody ever wears them in game, cus they look ugly asf.

we need more people sharing some honest opinions and be specific about what they liked and what they didn't like and why.



kenovo made them. i like the cherry one, but the banana one was the worst.
but his bows man. girls might like it, i personally don't

how about leaving cc so we know what we did wrong?

Hi Ivy, I made the coconut - was trying to capture the "hairy" texture of a real coconut through the way I shaded it.
(without making it look like a scrotum as Sarzar was afraid of me doing)

I do realize that the perspective was off because of how I placed the lightsource's highlights.

I thought it kind of looked like one, but friendly advice (not in a snarky way either lol)

Perhaps you could edit the hat to be more round, and have more defined, less jaggy edges. Right now ir lacks depth. Thjnk of the coconut as a sphere, now fair it in half.

(Also, if there were a bit of coconut milk/juice dripping down the players head would look cool too!)


I'll try and make a sketch that hopefully you can reference.

Was she gone?
She even made stuff for xmas

By the way @everymadkidsthatdislikewhatsinsidetheirgift we arent professional artist that made years of art studies, we started for fun, we did it to spend time.
Coco also started the same way before becoming this good but she didnt had the whole comunity hating on every little piece she made. You guys dont understand anymore the differnece between "disliking something" and saying that "it look horrible" it doesnt mean the same at all

Was going to make it have a smoother cut, but liked it better as if it were a coconut that had been smashed open.

I made the decision to not include coconut milk/juice dripping down the players' head again due to that making the hat look oddly sexual.

it's always either hats are aligned incorrectly or look horrible in different angles. it makes me upset cause i feel like u guys didn't try.

leah's have some really good ones and bad ones. good ones like bow, wolf ears, firework mount. i see people using/wearing those all the time.

forcing someone to draw does not always mean they improve

My only complaint has nothing to do with creativity or design of hats. Simply that presents cost 700 gralats and most gifts are pointless; food and the 25-55% value of gifts in gralats. That to me is unacceptable. I've been around many games in my time and never seen a gifting system where the cost of a gift is the chances of it costing far less than what was paid.

To sum it up
Thank you for hat submissions however remove food/gralats in gifts or GREATLY decrease percent by 95-99% of receiving bogus gifts. It's a Holiday not April Fools.
