My take on Iridesia, the new faerie in Neopets! (I think now that they are on the front of the plot page it no longer counts as spoilers, right? 😅)

I'm very excited that we have our first nonbinary faerie AND a rainbow-themed faerie just in time for Pride Month!! I've been dying to redesign their outfit in my style, but I couldn't decide between two versions. Which do you prefer, White (above) or Grey (below)? 🤍🩶

I'm dyingggggg to redesign more faeries, but my break from working on Sugarplum Cafe has been long enough 😅 so let me make some progress on my game, but I am sure I'll be drawing faeries again later!

Just in case it counts as spoilers, I put their original design and my design notes below:

As the first nonbinary faerie, I wanted to keep their fashion androgynous. It also seems like their outfit is meant to be fighter-like, so I kept that concept.

I changed the cape to a scarf which would not block the wings IRL but still add flow to the design.

To match the moth antennae, I changed the shape of the wings to resemble a luna moth. They unfortunately still resemble butterfly wings to me, but at least the color schemes match.

I turned the wing pattern into a "holographic shattered glass" effect as a nod to the original stained glass concept. I just wanted to practice this pattern to be honest!

I ended up making two versions: 1) White to emphasize the rainbow theme, and 2) Grey to bear a closer resemblance to the original.

I kept the original concept of the stained glass wings for the Grey version, but made the color scheme match the rest of the rainbows.
