Heyy 50 followers :D
This is making me want to pick up my WoF headcanon/alternative biology ideas again...
Finally finishing all these guys we’ve got charts and headcanons! (Long post)
(Height)
(Wingspan)
(Body length & basic shapes I used) (it might be odd but ignore any detail on the back, the shapes are for general body shape)
Seawings: - Colors range from red and purple to yellow - Aquatic is based off areas of bioluminescence rather than singular scales (because no one wants to draw all of those) - Although they average small compared to the other tribes, gigantism is more common - Wing bioluminescence gene is always present but for some doesn't show, thus aquatic doesn't utilize the wings
Rainwings: - Can change the texture of their scales alongside color - Weakest bite due to their fangs, probably why they're vegetarian - Mimic interesting behaviors - Have forked tongues
Mudwings: - Colors range from olive green to purple-ish red - Very resilient - Able to breathe fire regardless of body temperature, the heat of the flame depends on body temp - Their horns constantly grow and sometimes have to be cut due to dangerous growing patterns - Love gnawing on things, tough foods like jerky is popular - The horn covers of fallen siblings are harvested and turned into instruments to remember them by
Leafwings: - Colors range from gold to teal (and pink to olive green during cold seasons) - Can appear to have false eyes - Bug-like just like the other Pantalan residents (because they're just some weird outlier like what is going on here) - Leafspeak doesn't actually allow them to hear voices from plants but rather increase the sensitivity of their antennae which pick up on the changes in plants - In colder seasons, regions that have deciduous trees influence leafwings in that their scales change into warm tones similar to fallen leaves for camouflage but this also negatively impacts one's leafspeak ability; this doesn't apply to evergreen leafwings however
Hivewings: - Colors range from hot pink to olive green - Can appear to have false eyes - Have elbowed antennae just like their "cousins", Hymenoptera (wasps, bees, ants) - Tend to disregard personal space/get close out of habit, being close means better temp regulation and better communication - All hivewings have stingers, wrist stingers, and a venomous bite but it largely depends on preference of which they choose and like muscles, they can be exercised to become deadly weapons - They're not capable of "emitting a horrible stench"
Icewings: - Colors range from white to pale indigo - Melanism is still very rare but more likely in icewings - Can be iridescent in any color, especially visible in lighter scaled individuals - The scales on their face is very fine and is flushed with blood which darkens the area and allows them to see in the snow by absorbing light, otherwise the glare from the sun reflecting off would be a hinderance - Their wings are thin and thus have visible veins most of the time - Idk how to describe their scales other than its kinda like basalt formations - From the side they appear large but are actually thin and flexible - They can freeze to death if they've gone without cold for a long time and then reintroduced too quickly - In hybridization, they have dominant genes, partially because the animus gene - The extra mane of horns can appear randomly on the body in singular spikes, they also make a clink sound when they collide as if they're made of ice, making a pretty scary rattle when disturbed
Nightwings: - Colors range from orange to purple - Albinism is still very rare but more likely in nightwings - Dwarfism is more common - Teardrop scales are always present, highlighted when the dragon has powers regardless of type - Pitbull ready to bite kids - They CAN hang upside down as the books suggest but not for long - By taking dust baths, they dull their scales to reflect less light and blend in better in the dark - Have white fire but cant breathe for long due to how hot it is (this is mainly to add onto the mysterious factor of em and I always liked the idea) - Due to eye sensitivity, they hate sudden bright lights and will close their eyes as they breathe fire
Silkwings: - Can have black or dark accents but never as a whole body color unless they've hybridized - Wing shapes vary widely - Can appear to have false eyes - Flamesilk is rarer than one might think - Very flexible and have strong tails used as a sort of 5th limb in climbing - Albino or melanistic dragons still keep their iridescence - Silk is emitted through a spinneret on the chin rather than the wrists - Prefer to travel in pairs (instinct)
Sandwings: - Colors range from red to olive green - Dark patters often mimic a snake's - Horse-like in complexion - Alongside their snake-like appearance, they have pit organs - Tend to move like birds - Poor eyesight but good hearing - Their horns angle upwards sort of like a bull
Skywings: - Colors range from red to yellow (and green because skywings are meant to be your typical fire breathing dragon which is most often depicted to be red but can also be green) - Tend to move like birds - Weaker than they appear - Green skywings are incapable of being or having flamescales - Their horns constantly grow and have to be filed down - A flamescale cant melt rock or metal by touch alone, only via fire is it possible - It's not that they don't want flamescales that they kill them, it's more of a mercy killing because of how lonely their life can be
It seems that I never posted this before! I have decided to rectify this mistake because I'm super proud of this piece.
The character here is my sona, Cosi!
I'll hopefully be making more drawings similar to this one in the future! Who knows, maybe it'll become part of my art style.
Reblogs are appreciated!!
Some owed art for Upsilon on Toyhouse!!
My school year ended today, so I'm free over the holidays! Hopefully, I will remember to post here! But I'll have to see.
So cute so amazing and I should do this exact thing too because LOOK at the result ARGGHHH I especially love the genet inspiration?? Those little guys. Underrated.
i have tried and failed to make myself a secondary animal-critter-thing sona so i just mashed several me-animals together and i thnk it worked this time. this is me. i identify with small skittering animals. i identify with fear
i even made an id board in preparation. i think i captured it well in fact
wof art dump 3
most of these are from the fall of last year! we are catching up guys
in order from left to right:
pumpkin — ga adopt, cetawings
blue — cloud custom
brown — ga spearwing raffle

last two wips — unfinished cloud adopt
Spoilers for WoF arc 2, sort of
What if instead of using Fierceteeth to replicate Clearsight, Darkstalker did it with Moonwatcher
Oh my god, could you do a wing tutorial? The way you draw wings is just absolutely incredible 😭😭😭can't stop thinking about it
I did a little tutorial for you (for the first time in many years), I hope it will be useful
Very surprised at how much Tumblr is liking my art dump. Thanks guys :D /gen
Maybe I really will be active here... eventually...
Hey, the good news is that I still have a big fat queue of stuff I've already put on my DA but haven't posted here so yippee! Happy first day of spring by the way
:DDDDD
This character is designed and owned by @aposterous ! It was a pleasure to draw their OC ^^
4 more slots for this style of headshots open! As well as 5 of my other style (SandWing banner) and 1 fullbody slot for each style! Let me know if you're interested ^^
