The main reason why I even HAVE an Au Ra is the bright limbal rings that make them look so unlike anything else I've seen. The limbal rings shining bright, making them contrast massively against the main eye color and making them glow, is something I spent half a day picking out and adjusting, picking the contrast I liked most.

I don't really care if it's less technically impressive than the new design, it's what I wanted and liked. Like, yeah, the updates are technically impressive and I adore the work put into it, but I simply do not believe there is a need to make it impossible to have the high-contrast glow I chose on purpose. I did not make my Au Ra have smooth seamless colors, I made her have freaky alien eyes. I expect to be able to keep freaky alien eyes.
