Last major design change, promise!
This is a runway model giraffe, or however you want to take it!
I'd love feedback, especially ones about color and what to do with the head.
Here's some tries at what to do with the head:

I really love flowy designs, and using it to help enhance the fairy typing on it was a very nice idea. I can easily see both typings on this design, so I would love to see how you cnotinue to develop it further!

This is a pretty fun design, but I agree with many others that the jerboa was a better favorite of mine. Since it's your call though, some feedback I have on your camel design is that it feels very many-sided to me. There's a clear distinction as to what is the camel, what is the cactus, and what is the pot. I think it might mesh better if some areas of your design felt a bit more organic, such as the hooves being slightly more shaped like hooves, and the cactus being integrated more into the body so it doesn't look like it was tacked on. It's a very clever design though, so I hope you could mesh them altogether a little more!

This design is very cute! However, the size of many of its features, namely the face and limbs, give it the look of something that hasn't reached its final evolution. I would consider looking into much larger cactuses to base the main concept on, or if it was meant to be just one main body, try looking into how other mons, like darmanitan, handled it with a smaller face. Also, just as food-for-thought, it resembles cacnea a teensy bit, since it has the same body structure and I believe is based on the same kind of cactus.

I really love the way you handled the humanoid look of this without making it feel like a human in a suit. It gives off a very pokemon-like feel to it, which is great considering the concept you went with. As of now, I think I like both of them equally, but the right one needs a little something on the bottom half since that area feels a bit too plain, considering that it takes up a considerable amount of the body. I'd love to see you either add some sort of pattern there, or even go with the hourglass shape of the left one in order to reduce the size of it.

I wouldn't be at all too worried with it being related to the sun or sand! There's a considerable group of capmons that don't fit the look of their concept,(ie. Kerfluffle), so I don't think it's much of a problem. Also, I think the golem approach you went with was very different from the rest of the current entries as well! If there's any way you could salvage the concept, and if you want to at least give it another go, I would suggest looking at "magical" golem designs in various other media, such as videogames and movies, and figure out what made those golems give off the mystical feeling. An example that popped into my head was the flying golems from the movie "Castle in the Sky".
