i noticed with my camo metallic bane that he almost seems to have colours for iridescent more than his old metallic

it's absolutely perfect for me, though. if it was his darker metallic i wouldn't have been able to breedchange him

it looks really unfinished... like there's no gradient at all on most of the dragon.

Even if it was for texture purposes, it still looks wrong...

it bothers me that it changes the horns on the other dragons but then on banescales its just basic still [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=2&bodygene=0&breed=18&element=8&eyetype=8&gender=1&tert=12&tertgene=0&winggene=0&wings=2&auth=755e9b1fd21bdc7ecc7ab3b79f540dea0f4d80c8&dummyext=prev.png[/img] [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=2&bodygene=49&breed=18&element=8&eyetype=8&gender=1&tert=12&tertgene=0&winggene=0&wings=2&auth=46f7b0db299da6ed8e695be5c96b8a33d05f36e2&dummyext=prev.png[/img] [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=2&bodygene=0&breed=5&element=8&eyetype=8&gender=1&tert=12&tertgene=0&winggene=0&wings=2&auth=af79fec07a27cca1bc2c96c0346fd079a0ed270c&dummyext=prev.png[/img] [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=2&bodygene=17&breed=5&element=8&eyetype=8&gender=1&tert=12&tertgene=0&winggene=0&wings=2&auth=92ebcabe266e49c1956169ef545cbabea5a221b4&dummyext=prev.png[/img]

This doesn't bother me as much as mottle honestly. Now that's a gene that looks unfinished.

You can never have enough apparel. I will not stop until my hoard is dripping with it.
Huh, I had noticed that Metallic/Alloy looked a lot more like plastic than metal on Banes, but I didn't realize just how bad it looked in comparison.
That's unfortunate.

Oh wow, I noticed it was a bit off but didn't realise how bad it was. They really do need a fix.

Oh god yeah they are absolutely not right, that grapefruit bane hatchling really shows it. It looks bad, like they're just completely flat.

I knew something was off about it. Really hoping that they don't leave this alone

Edit: Looking through more colors it appears to maybe be more of a brightness/contrast problem. Darker colors are okay but some layer in the gene file is probably too bright or light or just has the wrong layer style applied so its making everything look wonky. It affects lighter or more bright colors a lot more than darker or more dull colors.

edit: cant spell

I'm pretty disappointed in it tbh, because I use Metallic and Alloy all the time to darken colors and that isn't present on the banes. For example my dragon Balthazar. Without Metallic: [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=27&bodygene=0&breed=10&element=11&eyetype=9&gender=0&tert=11&tertgene=11&winggene=24&wings=158&auth=60ae1868cffaef70472e1ade7d7bb05fb9a1db5a&dummyext=prev.png[/img] With Metallic: [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=27&bodygene=17&breed=10&element=11&eyetype=9&gender=0&tert=11&tertgene=11&winggene=24&wings=158&auth=ab1cfadc050ba8d0e364c90991abedfe7b9cc9f3&dummyext=prev.png[/img] It's very noticeably darker all around. Compared to a Bane with the same colors and metallic: [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=27&bodygene=49&breed=18&element=11&eyetype=9&gender=0&tert=11&tertgene=0&winggene=0&wings=158&auth=b49a2d86edc505bef51a924d5cdd6858303ac9c0&dummyext=prev.png[/img] I don't understand why the devs decided to just scrap how metallic affected the color. I'm assuming it was an oversight but I have no hope it will get fixed based of the track record with art issues. I'm super bummed out.
