Not so much wank as it is salt, but

This is incredibly lazy and I hope the finished product looks better?

The black is like... super lazily half ass blended, and the symbols look sloppy.

Feels more like a rushed attempt at being first to release accents than actually make a quality one.

I like slaytheist's stuff usually. This is a pass.

Slaytheist just really likes to do those scribbly sparkles, as seen in all of these:

(omg why are there so many I was expecting like, 3.)

I've never liked this trend of theirs because of how messy they look, but they seem reasonably popular so to each their own.

The Undertide one does look rushed af compared to most the ones I linked above though, they didn't even close the lines on some of the diamonds. I honestly would've bought it if it was just the head and some shading, that part looks great.

slaytheist 100% rushes out this same accent every time a new breed comes out because they want to be the first accent out

it's just strange and idk why ppl keep buying this same accent over and over again

I've never been a big fan of Slaythiest's stuff, they do make some really nice accents on occasion, but they seem to go for quantity over quality. I'm really tired of getting pinged by them all the time. That bojack one they made was especially offputting IMO.

+1. I like a fair bit of their stuff but I'm not on their pinglist specifically because it feels like 70% of the time their stuff feels off and almost... rushed?

Look at the hearts on this skin, for example: https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/43731 or the arrows on this skin: https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/44442

I don't want to bash someone's art if they're not artistically capable yet trying their best because ik the feeling and I struggle with drawing, but I know for a fact that Slaytheist is capable of doing better here. When they put the effort in, it really shows, and they can end up making skins I absolutely adore, such as https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/44668 or https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/42729 or https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/44440.

I'm just kind of disappointed that this is the kind of route they decided to take.

AYRT, I just wanted to say you worded everything much better than I did, I agree with you 100%.

THANK YOU for finally saying it, every new breed that comes out they do the same thing and I just.... c'mon man... there are some of their accents I really love, but this series just isn't it.
