Description I went to the zoo and watched monkey's jump around. I am changing Pierce's tail, and volatikai tails, to be more like a monkey's. I explained this in a journal on both of my groups on dA and FA, but all I'll say here is don't freak out until you actually see how they look different when I sketch the rest out. :/

There isn't even much different to Pierce's tail. It's barely any thicker and just has a rounder tip. Main thing is just how he "holds" his tail while he walks and so on instead of dragging across the ground.
shorty-antics-27.deviantart.co… See? Barely a difference.

I also just decided there should be a little of his red fur color at the base of his tail, too.

My species are supposed to be like apes, because they ARE apes, so that's why this change was made. Other volatikai will hold their tails mostly like this as well, even if with a bunch of fur on it. I'll show those in the future. I need to do some owed art now...

you could have both kinds of tails, though, if people are making a fuss of it? i admit that i don't remember if other volatikai have tails like pierce's, but there are monkeys with and without prehensile tails in different parts of the world (central america and africa, respectively, if i remember correctly), and those without prehensile tails would hold theirs basically how pierce used to hold his?

With how I have it planned, I don't want people making the old kinds anymore.

its only a HAIR thicker X3 see what I did there?! I like this. I kind of miss the pointed tip. but I guess that would have more to do with how the fur is now.

I can't wait to see how all the changes are being done

and what Pierce can now do with his new tail XD

I actually like it!! I don't like apes usually, but I like how the tails look!
Unlucky, I think that a lot of people just watch the designs and don't read the description
It's like when they said that the were form seems a werewolf, while you explained that they are more like apes, baboon if I am correct
Or when people say that Volatikai are bats xD
I guess the fans will accept it

It was fans who were upset with the change. 2 of them. :c So it has been frustrating me.

Yeah I got it, I was just saying that they will accept it I know that it can be frustrating, but the others liked it!!
I know that this nothing more than a single comment from one of your watcher, but I like it, and even though some people may not, if they really like your race they will accept it!
So just keep on and don't give up!
