Ooooh my goodness, I was not expecting such an incredible reception on this, thank you all so much!! 💕💕 I have a channel in my Discord server to help keep up to date with other mods, although for the actual projects I am working on, just a little $5 Patreon/Ko-Fi pledge will let you see all of the *behind-the-scenes* action as soon as I can produce them.

Let's Hope that SnailGames doesn't screw this up more by over-charging the price and trying to push premium mods more and more... And while i understand why premium mods exists... Paid mods are generaly a gigantic no-no across all modding communities and we will do our best and everything we can so that premium mods don't become a standard in the video game industry as all mods should be free of access to all.
@@Alpha-cabb So modders should pour dozens (if not hundreds) of hours into mods for free? I think not. You are not entitled to the fruits of someone else's labour.
@@Helianthus_ what you said is exactly what we modders do, while most of us do have a patreon / site where people Can donate money to us, we make it clear that donating money is 100% optional and to only donate money if you really really want to. Most of us also do commission mods for a set Price for individual people and those commission mods are still available for free for the public in the end and not just for the person who commissioned it.

Just goes to show that modders are the absolute goats of ASA. You, depths, Moro, myrm, garuga and many others are all doing such an amazing job with making this game so much more appealing and diverse and I just want to say thank you for all of your amazing work on these amazing mods!!!
I love that a lot of big modders get along really well and help each other on each other's projects. The modding community on ARK have great and talented people !
You've come so far in a year. You bring so many amazing things to the table, and I'm so genuinely excited to see just how much you're going to level up a year from now. What a wild ride this has been.
Jesus. You and the team have made this game so much better! Your Dino mods make having ASA actually worth it and I love the qol and love you guys put into them. Thank you guys. You are all incredible.
These are all so well made! The Ledumahadi has to be my favorite; it looks so real! (19:04 As someone who owns chickens, those feet do indeed look very accurate.)
Soon 👀 Monday morning he should be out! CurseForge has to approva it and they're off this weekend, but this also gives us enough time to fix him jumping out of water
So sorry about the thumbnail trick! I originally wanted to use Leduhamadi, but I couldn't make a good thumbnail with the non-textured sculpt And then I remembered Depths took this really beautiful screenshot... 👀
As much as I love the saddles you’ve made and as amazing as the ledumahadi and therizinosaurus are absolutely going to be, the projects here I am most excited for are the megaloceros, smilodon, and Jowwi. I told you in my first comment that I would keep commenting as long as your infectious love for the game, prehistoric animals, and a good life kept bleeding through the screen. So I KNOW that you will show two small but ecologically and evolutionarily fascinating creatures the love they deserve. And if I leap for your videos because of who you are, how can little Jowwi be anything less than a constant delight? Thank you for this video, for all of the videos. Thank you for sharing your talents with the Ark community, and thank you for sharing your insights and laughter with us. You are going to see more improvement, recognition, and accomplishments coming in as time goes on, and you will have earned all of them. Also, to the Darkedge clan, comment your favorite Becca quote down below
I may not be able to respond to all of them, but I've seen and read every one of your comments, I really admire how thoughtful they are and how you've kept to your promise - not that you have to! But I've noticed and appreciated that you do. Thank you Francis, yours are always such a joy to read and I'm so glad I could provide such joy for you 💕💕
I really like this video idea. Really gives insight into how much work/ production you have done! You and your team are incredibly talented and I can’t wait to play with y’all future content/mods
DUDE!!!! your stuff is absolutely amazing and if you ever stop it will be a sad day in the modding community, Im am so excited for everything you were able to show off.
This is f*cling amazing to see I love how much you have improved and how proud of yourself you are 😂🎉 ps. That gorgonipsid and hō-ō is at the top of my excitement list ❤
So many amazing things to look forward to! All those creatures look so sick Ill be playing ASA for years to come if only to keep up with all this beautiful mod content being created
I hate when your videos end, your voice is so lovely, cheery and easy on the ears, and you do such a wonderful job makes me smile. Thanks for sharing your talent and creations with us players/budding artists, you are part of the reason I started playing ARK again, can't wait to see what you have in store for us, cheers.
Sometimes it really amazes me that i used to watch DarkEdge create such amazing spore creations when I was younger, and now I see these beautiful creatures and models in such a professional way, it's really amazing to me how things change over time (I apologize for the bad english, not my main language) Have a good day!
I’m majoring in Visual Arts/Animation with a concentration in game design, and I just have to say that this video is super inspiring. I’ve drawn my whole life, but these last few years were my introduction to things like zbrush, Maya, substance, and some other programs used in the industry. I’ve had a really good time with all of them and hope that I can reach the level that you have one day, really awesome stuff and it’s so refreshing to see someone who seems genuinely happy with what they do
I wish you all the best! I'm currently a one-trick-pony with ZBrush, if you can learn Substance and Maya too that'll really maximize your potential 💕 I hope to do the same some day, too
Hey DarkEdge, I usually don't comment on videos, but I've watched u since ur original spore and dark spore builds. Just wanna say it's crazy to see ur growth and hope u keep going, ur work is great
I've been following your creations since 2014 and before that, during the golden age of Spore. I've always admired your work and I wish I could do half of what you know.
something i just noticed with the gorgonopsid; with the way the head and neck interact in the model, it almost looks like it has ears that are perpetually pointing backwards, like what cats do when they are in an aggressive mood, which makes it look extra angry. just a nice little detail in an incredible model
These all look great! I already liked the look of the Smildon TLC, but I'm interested in the updated version. I hope it keeps the more accurate bobbed tail and muscular build. Modding is really improving Ark Ascended, and I'm excited to see what's to come. Seeing how detailed your work on scales and feathers is makes me hope to see more of that one day in mods. Giving TLC'd creatures feathers or adding prehistoric birds through mods like Paleo Ark would be great.
Let me just say DarkEdge, you are such a very kind talented artist. And whenever I see your work I’m just WOW’ed every single time. Never stop what you’re doing, you are doing an absolute banger job, keep it up!! Much love💙
Wow.... blown away by your work! Thank you so much for what you do for ARK! The Barsboldia saddle is really nice and when I saw it for the first time I thought you may have done it and now it's confirmed. I can't wait for all of your creatures to be in my game! Thanks again for your talented work! Finally a proper Hatz! After seeing yours I can't wait to see it soaring overhead.
It’s crazy to me to think that I started watching your Spore videos way back in the day, and somehow here I am watching your videos again, now with Ark
You guys are doing amazing work! (And honestly I like that Theri so much I'd love to see a feathered and non-feather version. Seeing that giant muscle monster walking around would be incredible.)
Damn, I'm impressed by where you're at now and started at. I remember watching your spore creature videos as a teenager, and trying to copy them. These models for Ark look so good
I'm proud of you I love your design of the Evo dinosaurs and I also love the smilodon I can't wait for these to come into the game these other Evo dinosaurs will and you did great with everything^^
I would love to see some tutorials on making models this seems like so much fun to do. I’d love to start to pick it up and start down the journey of making cool stuff like your work!!
13:00 I'm lit over that Dragon. FMU fam I love well made custom dragons I am currently all over Kami's dragon mod, such talent and passion put into it. Can't wait to see your model make it into the game. The Panther dragon looks cool tool. Man I'm ready.
All of these models look absolutley stunning, the ammount of time and sweat you put into this must be insane! I think my favourite is the cryptoclidus, since I love the ocean creatures!
The future of ASA is in good hands thanks to talented creators like you Rebecca, I'm looking forward to trying out all the creatures you worked on in their respective Mods. 💪🏽
So many of these are so good, I’ve been so excited for the herbivores like Theri and Ledu but the Gorgonopsid seems so amazing as well. And I haven’t seen that updated Jowwi before that was a pleasant surprise.
I love all of your works. You are such talented. You did extraordinary job. So proud of you and your works you made so far. Looking forward to more works of yours and your journeys.
That's some amazing work, Rebecca! I personally feel like I associate you mostly with Spore, but your Ark videos are also very interesting. Is that Clip Studio you're using for 2d?
I'm very pleasantly surprised by it! I'll admit I've had some bad run-ins with SOME parts of the modding community in ASE, and that left me to think the entire community was like that. But nah, this corner with Depths, Garuga, Moro, Tristan, and so many more are some of the nicest artists I've met
modding wise i've honestly had so many ideas for creatures. things like the Roc from african and arab mythos to a giant grasshopper that when paired with a survivor and thier violin could aid in buffing an army to my powerful Anchor drake being the midground tween an anky and a magmasaur for metal gathering along with having the climbing ability of a rock drake and amazing swimming and diving potential this and so many more critters i have but in the devkit im a caveman with it
Ooooh my goodness, I was not expecting such an incredible reception on this, thank you all so much!! 💕💕

Imagine if the WC team had 1/10th the passion of these ppl.
@@IchbinX or 1/10th the IQ
@@IchbinXThey do, they just have to rush and make ALL the content that was in ASE. Modders don't have deadlines
Don’t forget about Tristan
As a paleontologist, it’s really nice to see some creatures getting the love they deserve! Thank you!!
Sculpting dinos is like spore, but like unbelievably hard. Amazing work!
6:35, YOOO!!! Jowwi!!!
Rebecca: this won't be a mod, just something I did *shows coolest gorgonops ever*
me: WHY
IT GOT BETTER
That gorgonopsid looks AMAZING it’s one of my favorite prehistoric creatures just in general and I cannot wait for that mod to come out
Same
Seems a bit weird tho
I love that a lot of big modders get along really well and help each other on each other's projects. The modding community on ARK have great and talented people !

And you too Loki! What a wild ride this has been, I can't wait to see what we're both doing by 2025 👀👀👀
Really excited for what's next! You guys are carrying big part of the game 💪💪 Keep going with this epic stuff!
Hey man, thank you so much!
Jesus. You and the team have made this game so much better! Your Dino mods make having ASA actually worth it and I love the qol and love you guys put into them. Thank you guys. You are all incredible.
I’m genuinely so happy u are a part of the ark community! Great work!!
honestly its amazing how much you have grown
Woaaahh this is so impressive!! Love the attention to details
It is absolutely wonderful just seeing how your journey in ark modding and sculpting has been going. Amazing work and can’t wait to see more.
These are all so well made! The Ledumahadi has to be my favorite; it looks so real! (19:04 As someone who owns chickens, those feet do indeed look very accurate.)
Honoured to have you on our team for Project Kamiyama 💪🏻👏🏻
Thank you for having me, Danny! 💕💕
Was honestly suprised to see just how many projects you've done, and they all look so good it just makes you wish for them to be in the game already
the thumbnail for this tricked me into thinking crypto was released lol😆
Soon 👀 Monday morning he should be out! CurseForge has to approva it and they're off this weekend, but this also gives us enough time to fix him jumping out of water

bro these are so good unironically! keep up the great work! I loved seeing the Jowwi too, I'm subscribed to your other channel as well!
So gorgeous on everything. Makes me realize how most of the ASA creatures really need to be redone. You're an amazing creator
“This is just a random rough draft warm up model” while showing the best damn Gorgonopsid model ever is crazy!! You’re REALLY good at what you do!
i just put it together that you're the same darkedge that does the crazy spore stuff holy crap
Hey! Yep that is me, what a crazy journey it's been, ay? :D

im gonna be honest been a long time fan and you are insanely talented absolutely amazing creator and great content ingeneral keep up the amazing work
You are so good at modeling, this is absolutly beautiful
Finally someone who actually knows how some dinosaurs are suppose to look the parasaur looks amazing with the theri and mosa
Honestly that Tyrant Dragon looks beautiful, can’t wait for that mod to come to ark, Amazing work!
Damn, I'm impressed by where you're at now and started at. I remember watching your spore creature videos as a teenager, and trying to copy them. These models for Ark look so good
I have to say it, your models are amazing you are so good. Good video
I can’t wait for the Gorgonops mod!!! It looks awesome and the Hatz looks amazing too!!!
Jowwiicera kinda sounds star warsy with the jawas Han cut open to save Luke. Awesome work. Cant wait to see these in game
I'm proud of you I love your design of the Evo dinosaurs and I also love the smilodon I can't wait for these to come into the game these other Evo dinosaurs will and you did great with everything^^
Depths,garuga,rebecca are the big three when it comes to modding
One dino I’d love to see in ASA is Goji Center’s version of Jurassic Park’s Ultimasaurus.
Yes. That and the Indom 2.0 would make a great mod duo. 👍
@@HazzaBazza869 oh hell yeah
Of all of the Jurassic Park/World creatures, I really am surprised no one (to my knowledge) has made an Ultimasaurus
Amazing! Please make the Parasaurolophus as big as he was irl! Amazing work!
I would love to see some tutorials on making models this seems like so much fun to do. I’d love to start to pick it up and start down the journey of making cool stuff like your work!!
I'm aiming to make a very light guide for it soon! ^^
I absolutely love ur work you really make me want to get into modding!
Tully monster! That Therizinosaurus looks great too.
13:00 I'm lit over that Dragon.
FMU fam I love well made custom dragons
I am currently all over Kami's dragon mod, such talent and passion put into it. Can't wait to see your model make it into the game.
The Panther dragon looks cool tool. Man I'm ready.
Great jobs on the models!
Once a youtuber for Ark and now part time modder of Ark mods.
BASED Tully Monster. I haven’t heard of Paleo Ark Endemics can’t wait for more info on that! You’re doing amazing work!!!
Arkified gorgonopsid for the win!
Absolutely top notch. Well done.
All these looks amazing!
I love the gorgonopsid! Im excited to see what the real one looks like!
All of these models look absolutley stunning, the ammount of time and sweat you put into this must be insane!
I think my favourite is the cryptoclidus, since I love the ocean creatures!
loveeee your content fr one of the best creators

the hatzegopteryx is one of the ones im most excited for, alongside the gorgonopsid and evo theri
It's been a wild ride to see how much you've improved!! Still looking forward to getting a commission from you
Thank yooooouuuuuu! 💕💕
Wait, this is actually another channel, time to subscribe!
Thanks :D
Evo Therizino is definitely gonna wreck face when it eventually comes out... mainly my own trying to tame it XD
evo theri is so cool im playing it as soon as it gets added
You should do this like 2 to 4 times a year I love this
I haven’t watched yet but I’m excited to indulge when I get home!🎉
That's some amazing work, Rebecca!
I personally feel like I associate you mostly with Spore, but your Ark videos are also very interesting.
Is that Clip Studio you're using for 2d?
W video!!! Amazing models graphics amazing! Performance issues😢. Overall w video and amazing work
That Gorgonopsid looks so hype! Hopefully it'll be able to get in-game sometime relatively soon thanks to the other team adopting it. :D
The Evo Theri and Ledu absolutely need to be put in, they look awesome
Everything looks great!
God damn. Modders are really something else. I couldn't do this not if I was being paid. Congrats
I adore how the community saw their creature vote didn't win, so they just make it themselves
Can’t wait for all of these!
Been a great journey DarkEdge! Keep cooking
Project kamiyama looks good
Evo therizino looks so goood!
cool to see how pleasant the ark modding community seems to be
I'm very pleasantly surprised by it! I'll admit I've had some bad run-ins with SOME parts of the modding community in ASE, and that left me to think the entire community was like that. But nah, this corner with Depths, Garuga, Moro, Tristan, and so many more are some of the nicest artists I've met
ONLY ONE YEAR DE?! That's Sooo much stuff you've made!!! In the last year I've made maybe 5 models lol your crazy in the best way possible
Wow. Just wow. Btw if the Jowwicera ever becomes a mod, I 100% would download it
They look perfect! It’d be awesome if you did direwolf! Your mammals are so accurate!
Thank you so much! And yeesss I would LOVE to do a Direwolf, mammals especially are my jam
i hope to see some these creatures very soon
modding wise i've honestly had so many ideas for creatures. things like the Roc from african and arab mythos to a giant grasshopper that when paired with a survivor and thier violin could aid in buffing an army to my powerful Anchor drake being the midground tween an anky and a magmasaur for metal gathering along with having the climbing ability of a rock drake and amazing swimming and diving potential
this and so many more critters i have but in the devkit im a caveman with it
the all look sick hope to see Rockdrake among them 😅
