Description

Well, I really didn’t like the color palette of King Thorax, so I did a version according to my personal tastes. I wanted it to be more like a moth mixed to a deer, and with “inverted colors”, instead of being dark as a Changeling, being white-ish. What do you think?

I’d like a black-and-yellow bumblebee motif, and there are probably a myriad of rainbow bee and spider species somewhere if they want something more Joestar-inspired for her colour scheme. ;3

I would love it if this is what Cured!Chrysalis ends up looking like. As for Thorax……I’ve learned to love what he is, but good job regardless.

Being grey or brown or have individuals all different types of greys and browns for the moth motif may have been… Less of us would go WTF over it. Though, I’d also imagine butterfly shades could’ve worked as well to more allude to Flutterponies. However, thinking of it, Flutterponies were already G4’d. Six years ago in Sonic Rainboom. Having a second distinctly different Flutterpony callback may have been considered then rejected during pre-pro.
 
Of all the different, brightly-coloured bugs, ruling out butterflies as aforementioned, they could have chosen beetles or… Yeah, beetles. she loves you yeah yeah yeah X3

I think it fits. Ponies can get more colorful when they are powered with friendship and love, so I think the Changelings becoming more colorful is great. I also love the wing tail. It all looks so pretty to me. I guess maybe the design is hit-or-miss?

I actually liked the original color scheme. It reminded me much of a mix between fairies and insects and I’ve seen insects the color scheme of the original King Thorax’s before. I don’t get why people have a problem with it.

TBH Thorax original if it weren’t for the shows art style. This is infinitly better than his current design and actually fits the show style.

You know, I rather like this design. It reminds me a bit of the Hollow Knight style. The moth-like fur and the eyes really sell it for me, gives a better sense of a true metamorphosis from the chitinous bugs they were before.Very fine job, my friend.
