March 3, 2011 - Kayoki
The Kayoki has received a slight touch up! 
  
 
Visit the Creatu List, located in the Hatchery, to view all of the new Kayoki colors. 
 
 
Kayoki are often described as fluffy bundles of mischievous love. They are curious by nature and like to get into absolutely anything they can. They will knock over trash cans and sneak into houses just to see what’s inside. They have been known to wake entire neighborhoods with their nocturnal antics. It is mostly the young ones that get caught. As they grow they become more sneaky and aside from the occasional overturned trash can leave only a silent trail of destruction.

Even in captivity Kayoki are known to leave entire rooms turned inside out in their curiosity. Despite this unfortunate trait, they are adored for their loving personality. Captive Kayoki will shower their owner with affection, doing everything from greeting their owner at the door when they return to cuddling with their owner as the pair go to sleep. Sometimes this affection can get out of hand, especially when Kayoki owners wake up in the morning to find several of their own belongings laid out on the bed as gifts.

Although Kayoki may be cute and loving, they are fierce hunters. Kayoki owners never need to worry about pests in their homes as the Kayoki will quickly capture and eliminate anything that should not be inside. They will often sneak out at night to hunt for food and occasionally leave their owners a hunting gift for the morning. If you can get past the curiosity and presents, the Kayoki is an excellent addition to any home.

The Kayoki just got better:)
Jzbelle - March 10, 2011
Hmm. It's been a week. Still adore them. *sigh* <3 <3 I think I actually have all of the dye-colored ones now. :]

The teen is sooo cute!
fullmoon - March 6, 2011
SQUEEEEEEEEE!
eyapa8 - March 6, 2011
the teen is the best i think. great job
MiaViper - March 5, 2011
*just came back and stares @ Kayokis in Show room* ... *Hnnnnz~ Gotta sleep about the change for a night. XD Think i can come to accept, even like it. Something on the way of shading on the Tail bugs me, but then again i can't to it any better so, eh... nvm. *lol* This kind of tail is just hard to pull off. Overall, nice work on this one i'd say. ----- Though, is is just me or does the Sepia Baby look a bit over-shiny? As if the highlight is stronger (or more white-ish) then on other colors, or even other sepia stages.
Yaizhbeen - March 5, 2011
So the adult Cream turned purplish after all...*sigh*
Breeze - March 5, 2011
The middle looks like a freaky Pomeranian.
Gunmetal - March 5, 2011
The adult cream is now fixed.
paigecam - March 4, 2011
I love the teen! <3
LaCortoriReturn - March 4, 2011
Thanks artists, but I'm afraid I don't see why every creatu is turning bubblyish. You know, bloated looking? Thanks again for the hard work anyway.
Yaizhbeen - March 4, 2011
I hope if the Cream gets fixed, the adult's colour will be kept. The only kayoki I own is a Cream, I have fanart and all, and I am not happy about her markings going purplish o_0.
DecemberMoon - March 4, 2011
So shinyyyy 8D May I ask what kind of shampoo these kayokis use? Like the update and LOVE the new description (the old one was fine...this is just better).
Jzbelle - March 4, 2011
I did my own "re-color" of the Sepia Kayoki some time ago, and I was tickled to death to see that it's been re-colored in almost the exact colors that I'd picked for mine. Just can't stop finding things I like about this. I'll shut up now. XD
Aidan1 - March 4, 2011
these look so cute! Thank you artists!
Aidan1 - March 4, 2011
these look so cute! Thank you artists!
Shadowsong - March 4, 2011
Amazing!!! it looks much more "realistic" now
Jzbelle - March 4, 2011
Yeah, my response was a little delayed due to the birth of my newest grand-baby this morning. :) Once she was here and I was sure that everyone was fine, I was free to wax poetic. (I warned Xee of the impending novelette yesterday; hope I didn't scare her thinking it might go the other way. I was a bit distracted.) XD
AriaKaye1 - March 4, 2011
I have been coming back to this board all day, just like Twitter, with baited breath waiting for Judy's response, lol!!Knowing she would never bash, but hoping she loved it, and she did!
Jzbelle - March 4, 2011
::skips:: MERRY CHRISTMAS! :D
Outsane - March 4, 2011
It's like Christmas for you, isn't it Judy? xD <33
wolfspirit25 - March 4, 2011
:D I'm glad you like the description Judy. Always important to please our resident Kayoki lover ;)
TokyoWolf - March 4, 2011
I love these :3 just one thing though, the adult cream's tail is a different shade of red/pink. I think it should be fixed to match the teen and baby's colors :/
Jzbelle - March 4, 2011
Love, love love! If you're a Kayoki-holic like me and you're uncertain about the "refresh", give it a day. (Hey, I was surprised. But other events pulled me offline yesterday, so I came back to the new Kayoki with a fresh view today.) Go to the Hatchery page that lists all of the Kayoki colors and take a good look at Kayoki V.3 on it's own (NOT next to the previous version). There is depth to the colors, shading that makes them look fluffier and more squooshable than ever. The lines on the dyed versions are all clean and clear, the colors vibrant and deep. I think the Indigo is the most beautiful thing on four...err, two? legs on Res. Its fur looks like crushed blue velvet. That same sweetly mischievous expression is still there on every little face. My hesitation for some of the dye colors is gone, and I'm going to go even more broke (is that possible?) buying up dye kits. And the description! I'm stalking whomever wrote it as their Number One Fan (uh-oh) since they've written it exactly as I've always pictured my Kayokis. "Fluffy bundles of mischievous love"...damn skippy they are! When the adult Cream version is fixed, I hope it matches the other two stages, not vice versa. I adore the "Berries and Cream" look of the baby and teen, it's so pretty! (NO, I won't do that dance, sorry.) Negative points? I'm a Merchant now, and will have too many Creatu on my profile WHICH has to now be re-done to showcase the new Kayoki AND there's that whole "broke" thing again from the dye kits and beans I'll be buying. I can live with that. :)
Astronaut - March 4, 2011
AWW ITS LIKE A POKEMON ~ kayooookii yoki yoki!
April - March 4, 2011
I'm glad it was just a touch up as it was beautiful as it was. It's now even better. Thank you, artists.
username - March 4, 2011
I've always wondered this, but what are all the Kayoki ears white?
Alchemist - March 4, 2011
D: Well.It isn't very bad and I'm sure I'll get used to it. :< But I'm going to miss the old kayoki. ;--;
KiRAWRa - March 4, 2011
With just a few touch ups I suddenly like the Kayoki a whole lot more C: I love the high contrast highlights on it that make it seem very silky and glossy. As for people fussing about it going from two to four legs and back, I don't see why that is even an issue at all. There are many animals that navigate on both two and four legs. Animals like meerkats and rabbits run on four but they can very easily stand on two legs to look around and get a higher perspective. In contrast, the kangaroo naturally hops on two legs, but still has the ability to "walk" on all four. It also makes sense that since the Kayoki is described as a hunter that it would stalk it's prey on four legs.
mythcreature - March 4, 2011
Just noticed as well that the creature goes from two legs, to four, then back to two. Considering the front legs in the baby look much shorter than the rabbit shaped back ones, it really doens't make so much sense :/ The adult eyes are also oval not round like the baby's. I'm sorry but something really seems off. If you were going to tweek them why not do all and make it look like a real progression?
mythcreature - March 4, 2011
The nose looks weird on the teen and adult. Doesn't match the baby.
Shinrai - March 4, 2011
All I can see that has changed is the middle one. I quite enjoy these little buggers now. :P Thank you very much artists! :D
Zayn - March 4, 2011
ILOVEITILOVEITILOVEIT
Lolbot - March 4, 2011
Ah. Looks a little like plastic. D: Sorry.
44blueroses - March 4, 2011
Don't put down guys, cos' it might make the amazing artists of Res feel a little down....I think they are great and they did an outstanding job, I think the touch up gave them a little more character. Blue xx
Davesprite - March 4, 2011
Wow, those colours are really bright. xD; I love the Indigo. And they're definitely very shiny now, but I think it works for Kayokis. Also, I'm really glad to see the eyes touched up slightly on the Albino! That was the thing that bugged me most about the old version. And also, thank you so much for keeping the Albino markingless. <3
Dixiao - March 4, 2011
The Baby and the adult stages look great, but the middle one looks kind of tacky. It looks like it was just slapped together.
ShayBaby1 - March 4, 2011
Hmmmm... not bad.
Micheila - March 4, 2011
The cream looks like boysenberry! :D I'm so glad the teen looks different, and I really love how shiny they are c:
xeeroh - March 3, 2011
'Cartoony' is a major part of the style standard, there should be no other expectation for site graphics :/
KitKate - March 3, 2011
I agree with Classy I would love this if it wasn't so cartoony
Puptea - March 3, 2011
cute
Pavnix - March 3, 2011
I, like some others, preferred the old version of them. They looked less cartoony. o-o Eh, oh well. Nice job anyways I s'pose.
Riot - March 3, 2011
Yaiz; I think it's just the red fades some... I think it looks cool:o Awesome job<3
Misscutie - March 3, 2011
<3 Teen stage.
morbidfool - March 3, 2011
MUCH better. They looked kind of flat before. :)
Yaizhbeen - March 3, 2011
Maybe its just my computer, but the colouring of the adult Cream looks different than the baby and teen o_0. (I did refresh.)
Inkabel - March 3, 2011
THYANK YOU!!!
Cylum - March 3, 2011
It's pretty. I feel other pets may have needed it more, but it's still appreciated.
fawn - March 3, 2011
AWWWW!!! So cute!
Hatchi - March 3, 2011
I love it so much more!!!
QUEENIE18 - March 3, 2011
Oh goodness.........their eyes are so messed up now...
Yoshi - March 3, 2011
Oh, and I just realised something. Even just the fact that this revamp makes the ears look like they're actually ATTACHED makes it awesome. Really, I always hated that. They just looked like fake wings tacked onto the Kayoki's heads. xD And on the facial structure thing.. there's almost no difference. Just a sliiightly higher cheekbone and a smaller hair-tuft-combover-thing. And that it doesn't randomly have a fur-break on the far cheek.
Riyo - March 3, 2011
Love it. Unsure about the teen... it'll grow on me though. I knew it needed to be made to look more different than the adult. And I LOVE the retouched adult. It's fantastic. :D
Axel - March 3, 2011
I like the new middle. Other than that and the shininess, they look the same xD and they're not fat Grave, it's their fur. Makes them look poofy ;o Thanks for the touch up guys <3
Mars - March 3, 2011
D'AWWWWWWWWWWWWW I like. :U
Graveyardfox - March 3, 2011
If that's directed at me, Flare, I'm not a hater. I have an opinion and I'm allowed to state it. And if all that was needed was a re-draw, why was the facial structure changed? It looks rather fat now.
Bowie - March 3, 2011
Not exactly a revamp I loved. One of the ones I liked better as old ones. I am definitely not saying I hate it or anything like that x3 But I'll probably end up liking it a lot once I get around it more.
Flareboy123 - March 3, 2011
;C Haters gonna hate.
luv2eatTacos - March 3, 2011
I think once I get used to this I'll like it a lot. Thanks for the update (and the description as well). C:
HoshikoYoukai - March 3, 2011
um so why is the adult cream color different from the other two stages?
Patrick - March 3, 2011
A redraw was necessary. Without it we could not release any of the more complicated colors in the future, such as trance.
Graveyardfox - March 3, 2011
I really don't think this is necessary, and the shiny-ness and shortened hair and fat faces on the adults kinda frustrate me. They look rubbery and the color seems to change on them between stages making them look odd. The best one now is the albino because only the new face is noticeable. Each revamp makes me like Res less and less, sadly.
Oakwind - March 3, 2011
Teenage is a little too fluffy...
Faction - March 3, 2011
Very nice. But the shines are just a bit too much; only like the baby :x
Todoroki - March 3, 2011
SOO adorable <3
moriwolf - March 3, 2011
The adult and baby look very much the same, but the teen is very different.I like the new position but it seems a little odd considering the adult and baby are on their hind legs.
Zuzu - March 3, 2011
Adult and teen look much much better. I thought the old baby art was already perfect but I guess I can live with a bit of neck puff.
Yoshi - March 3, 2011
Really nice. :D I love the look of that fur, and the softer edges suit the Kayoki extremely well. Although, it also looks odd with a couple of the little mistakes that were in the previous version remaining. Mostly the adult's awkward paws. xD
Flareboy123 - March 3, 2011
I'm gonna start collecting those buggers. eue JayWonderland is a Kayoki, homg.
Canada - March 3, 2011
sooo much better♥
XAllurcore - March 3, 2011

Scrubbie - March 3, 2011

DracoTarcheInazuma - March 3, 2011
A bit too shiny in my opinion. haha.
