BARABOY hmm right now the cactus parts seem tacked-on. Perhaps try to put some more elements on the body -- i.e. putting cactus spikes on the thighs a-la garchomp, incorporating cactus flowers, etc. whatever works.
Birkal the oasis take is pretty interesting, however its current look seems to lack some typing cues. Oases seem to have lush vegetation crowding on its edges; you might wanna try that along with the palm trees.
Drew hmm like you said, it would be hard to separate from reiga's design as it is. Since you're on the idea of making an armadillo, maybe you could try a fairy armadillo as a base? It might give you a different silhouette and some more design choices to work with.
Durengardnit IMO the posh lady has more potential. Although, maybe it could use a bigger lithops flower to serve as a focal point?
eclecticneon hmm right now there is too much going on with your design. While the fairy wings is an interesting take that separates it a bit from the current rodent designs, the foliage on the body makes it too cluttery. IMO tone down the number of leaves and grass edges (like, just a couple blades of grass on the limbs, simplefied leaves on the tail, etc.) Sometimes less is more!
Felis Licht yeah I'm all for the transparency of the whole veil. That kinda helps give it a graceful fairy vibe as well as detracting itself from being a toxapex clone silhouette-wise.
FriesforNapkins hmm the face is developed and has personality but I'm not sure about the way the neck bends and turns. The drum hump seems a bit tacked-on too. Perhaps some fur or an additional design element could help transition it better?
Golurkyourself she's MAJESTHICC. I prefer this more than your previous 2 WIPs.
Gravity Monkey I kinda agree with paintseagull on this one -- the autumn-colored bushes aren't doing much apart from being the same tone as the wooden parts. However I can actually see potential on the hourglass tidbit. (something something pixie dust hourglass body) Your call though.
HatfulofBomb cactus camel is a nice idea, and its feet forming a flowerpot is a great quirk too. Idk if the pinkish fur is enough to exude a fairy vibe tho.
nov quite an interesting design. A minor nitpick, but I think it will be hard for those thin legs to support the big head tho, haha.
Plazzap I think the feather dusters could use a little less detail, but it kind of gives a contrast to the simpler parts of the design, so i'm kinda unsure.
Wulfanator72 thornybear a cute! Altho, IMO the pink seems a bit too saturated, haha. It kinda gives a fruity look tho so idk
YourFavDalmatian cute cactus seems to be built for bullying LUL. Not a fan of the thin cactus spikes tho. Maybe the recurring pink/yellow diamonds could work as the thorns? Those seem to have more potential IMO.
