Different model[edit]

Judging by the North Nolan Hatchery vision, Frostbite has a different model to the other Lashtail Devourer Hatchlings and instead uses the File:Arid Devourer Hatchling.jpg model. Should the Lashtail Devourer Hatchling model be uploaded (if it is seperate)? Sunlion (talk) 05:39, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

The model for frostbite appears more shiny than the Arid Devourer Hatchling model and the eyes are bigger. Sunlion (talk) 18:35, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
The lighting and different posture makes it fairly hard to tell if they're the same model or just slightly different. I don't think ANet really does "slightly different" models where it's very hard to tell differences though, so I do think they're the same.
And yes, if the Lashtail Devourer Hatchling is different, then it should be uploaded. It's possible all of them are the same (also, has Forstbite's model at all ever been updated? Oirignally they were planning on changing it to show Frostbite's growth since it's just a hatchling during Flame and Frost). Konig (talk) 18:41, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
Looking at the file history, the current version is the same as Arid Devourer Hatchling and [1] is different model. Which one Frostbite is, I dunno. Before any changes, we should see if there's another image of that older one uploaded, and verify all models that use the image currently. Konig (talk) 18:43, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
File:Rox and Frostbite.jpg This might have the older one in it. Sunlion (talk) 18:53, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
Frostbite's old model appears to be in the Rox - The Hatchery vision. Should I upload that one? Sunlion (talk) 00:08, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Double check what model Krunko's Bug and Lashtail Devourer Hatchling use, and if Frostbite's model changed (checking the S4 instances with Frostbite would be sufficient there). Depending on the models used for them, we should relink to the Arid Devourer Hatchling (same as current one), and re-upload a good image the old model (either here or a new page depending on Frostbite's S3/S4 model - here if it never changed).

Alright, Frostbite uses the old model in A Kindness Repaid. They are indeed separate based on that. I'll check Krunko's Bug but the Lashtail Devourer Hatchlings in Rox - The Hatchery use the one shown in the current image. Sunlion (talk) 00:37, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Krunko's Bugs use the current model shown in File:Frostbite.jpg. Sunlion (talk) 00:59, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Frostbite also uses the old model shown in Dragonfall. Sunlion (talk) 21:48, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
I have reverted the image to the old version and changed the image link on the two other devourers. This one could probably use updating to something better but now it's accurate by all appearances. Konig (talk) 03:33, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
