[REQUEST] Can we have a more original race next time?

[Niwashi]

I'm sorry but you are fairly far off the mark. Snouts would require major modification of anything with a mask in addition to closed and open faced helmets. Hats without masks are pretty much the only thing that would not need very much modification other than for ears/horns.

I'm not quite sure why you started with "you are fairly far off the mark" when you're not really disputing much. Well, ok, so you added one item, the game's one and only mask design, in addition to the closed-faced helms that I'd already mentioned.

But as I pointed out, things like cat ears and horns, which clearly are within the range of what SE is willing to adjust for, need adjustments to nearly all hoods, hats, and helmets. A snout, on the other hand, would need adjustments to closed-faced helmets and that mask, but not to most helmets, nor to any hats or hoods. (The only other types of headgear in the game are things like circlets and glasses which wouldn't need adjustments in either case.) So overall, a snout would require far less adjusting than what SE agrees is reasonable.

[EDIT: Oh, and I forgot, there's also a scarf that covers the lower half of your face. That one would require adjustment as well. (Still doesn't change the real point, though, that most headgear doesn't cover the lower half of your face.)]

If a tail is anymore substantial than the ones for Miqo'te and Au Ra that requires major modification on both body and leg pieces.

I'm not quite sure how a tail could be much more substantial than the thick option for the Au Ra tail, the one people are referring to as the crocodile or alligator tail, like this one:

crocodile tail do it do it

EDIT: Yes, this tail, as rocked by mine:

I don't particularly like that tail design, but what I dislike isn't the tail itself, but the fact that the rest of the character doesn't match. It comes out looking more like a girl cosplaying a tailed creature rather than like someone who actually has a real tail. Just giving Au Ra actual scales rather than a few odd little patches here and there would have mostly taken care of that problem. It would help the tail and body to match.


As for the rest of your post, the fact that you can come up with a few things that wouldn't work as easily has no bearing at all on the fact that, as I pointed out, there are lots of others that would work just fine with little or no adjustments to gear. (And even your hardest examples could still be done. Digitigrade feet would require special adjustments for shoes and boots, but at least that adjustment could be done once, rather than eight different hat/helm adjustments to accommodate all the different Au Ra horn styles.)
