The mysterious hair grooming device(TM) is vital for Loroi war efforts.

Once, commander Stillstorm killed five Umiak with only a hair grooming device and a little bit of duct tape :mrgreen:

The wave-groom would work better on Ewoks than on hairless beetle-like Umiak....

I hate to do this as I'm not an artist and hopefully it'll be taken constructively, but I've pulled Cloud's eyes back from her nose and made her chin look less like bruce campbell's and more like in the previous page.

I'm not sure if it's the absence of eye-shadows (which sort of makes sense as she's looking upwards on the new page) or the position of the eyes, but they just looked a bit janky, and her jaw went from looking sort of petite to looking like the Teen Titans Go "Serious" face. I think it might be due to the change to her face being in pure profile.

At first I wondered if Cloud and Stillstorm were related, but when I checked the bridge pages, I noticed she looks a lot more like the woman in the middle-right panel on this page:

Are related loroi (mother/daugher/aunt) made to serve on separate ships?

I concur, her eyes look a bit strange being so far forward with such a righteous chin.

The bottom one looks more in keeping with her facial structure.

You're linking to the imgur page that displays the image rather than the image itself.
Arioch'd already updated the page and it may have happened before my post, but I'd forgotten to shift-F5 on it.

Ah yes, that was silly. Thank you.

Looking at the page on the website, it doesn't seem to have been altered.

Has anyone else noticed that they seem to be playing around with grooming and dressing him?
