Agreed, Very Much Agreed. the first one is the best redraw in my opinion as I like the pose a lot!!!. If I had to critique them this is what would be my critique's one for all 3:
#1. Keep the swirls on its belly and the scar on its head, otherwise perfect!!!
#2. ngl a bit confusing design wise because its looking more like electric and steel then electric/psychic and lost the psychic terian behind it (which I do suppose it because you wanted to make them have a constant background which ok fair game) otherwise I like how its lighting makes it look like its standing on it like legs.
#3.Love the face and the eye with the head, however uh it lost its bioluminescent tail thing and that was its source of its light manipulation... and its life...so technically its dead...uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hmm yeah that may be a issue but I did say you could take some artisic liberties and I didn't mention that to you so eh it is what it is.
Also Scrap4729 want me to do 3 of yours???
