The Dragonets of Destiny - graphic novel redraw
wof sketches (jambu, luna and sundew)
burn baby burn!
I love this dragon, seriously he’s one of my favorite. Probably top 5
He’s no sona, but he’s a dude… a little fella
Full body design for young Sparklestalker/Darkstalker! I had fun making the design simplified in an animation like style. I might edit it a bit in the future though. Left design is for "good" Darkstalker, and right design is after he becomes "evil".
Here, take a Darkstalker :p
I should be writing my future webcomic(Starstorm Monsters) rn-

A redraw of a 2022 design that’s below the cut

Walk Cycle SPEED RUN¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh no the brain rot.
I'm not going to make it out of this one
Hopefully this will turn into an Icicle AMV when I'm done but I have no idea when I'll run out of energy here.
Almost didn't post this as it's just a WIP, but I'm not sure if I'll actually finish this and I like the body segments.
IceWings have a different body shape compared to NightWings. Hard

A MasterMind art piece I did. Not happy with the colors of the scroll yet or the background but I like how he looks.
A collection of my most recent NightWing sketches.
Queen BattleWinner
MorrowSeer
SecretKeeper
And MasterMind
And of course all 4 outlines for size.
Still working on the concept of a comic, as soon as I've figured out the first 'instalment' I'll start working on and posting it. Never done a comic before so I'm excited.
I'm also trying to mess with facial expressions.
Drew the fuckass again. He runs like a bear here. I need to make a run cycle bible for different fun types.
MorrowSeer and his wife Secretkeeper. I have an AU idea I'm working on where this couple both have the idea to hide their egg in the rainforest, at the persuasion of Mastermind of course
Explanation below the cut
MasterMind found a fragment of an old book referenceing the connection between the moon and the Nightwing powers. He did not dismiss this literature as a work of fiction because it was authored by a well known scientist of old about the possible connection between nutrition of the mother while laying the egg and the speed of the produced hatchling's development.
The article addressed both the physical and psychic development of the hatchling, acknowledging the small sample size of MoonBorn dragonets as a potential error in their research.
MoonBorn was a common term in the legends of powered Nightwings. Most assumed MoonBorn to be a name, perhaps the name of a powerful seer who predicted other seers hatching. But if it was instead a condition of hatching, could the powers of old be real?
Fewer and fewer Nightwings were being hatched each year. The selection of possible 'test subjects' was few, and the conditions on the island were all wrong.
The punishment for being caught were severe, BattleWinner did not view treason lightly. But the benefits... If his research was correct... He could be responsible for the hatching of the first seer in centuries.
He needed an egg, preferably willing parents, and an opportunity granted only to those most loyal to the queen.
A double moonlit sky was approaching, he had less than a year.
------------------
I'm still working on this concept. I want to explore a world where Secretkeeper and MorrowSeer have similar goals and ideas. Where Moon's abilities are a goal her parents tried to achieve. And where she is trained by both her mother and father.
I might retcon this later though. Perhaps MasterMind thought the moons would make the dragonet an Animus instead, and the mind reading and seer powers were an unexpected result. Perhaps the queen finds out about this plan before it's fully carried out. Perhaps the RainWings find the egg and take it with them to their hatchery. Who knows. I plan to make this a comic as a sort of art practice. Any and all feedback is appreciated.
More little guys. Colored and marked with glow scales.
AFTER MONTHS, I HAVE DONE IT!
I have made a blocky stylized dragon. Haven't put his wings on yet.
I've been obsessed with @toadslug 's art for quite a while,
specifically this one
I
V
And I think I've managed to make my own style of the blocky dragon.
Seriously their design has been living rent free in my head for months.
I'm going to give mine clothes.
Been trying to figure out this run cycle for months and gave up a while ago. Not as simple as a walk cycle unfortunately.
Had another idea for a movement loop. I think my problem is that I'm overthinking these. I want all the frames to be perfect, but they won't be.
I don't know why I've just now been struck by the animation bug but I'm grateful that I might be able to finish old work.
I've been a little obsessed with a half baked oc from a half-baked story of mine. She is a Skywings, the stripes are painted on
My first attempt at a Hivewing.
This is actually an old WIP that I actually managed to finish, so yay!
I was attempting to imitate the gig wasp, and fortunately the colors seem to work.
Had to draw this.
Due to the three tribes distinct genetic traits, some features override others. Appearing mostly Rainwing, Tuna is lanky and colorful. Both Sandwing and Seawing attributes made them more spiny and added a sail which snakes down their back, stopping before the tail. They have limited color changeing abilities, almost all dark colors they change to are more blue than black, and lighter colors always carry a yellow tint.
As for glow scales
They aren't specific to designated scales like they are for Seawings. Rather certain scales glow the brightest and are surrounded by a smattering of smaller and seemingly randomly placed scales.
@cindle-the-candle
I hope you enjoy them. I made them a little gender ambiguous so you could choose. Feel free to change any details you like.
Thinkin' bout this a bit to hard but-
Hypothetically, according to wof and real life stuff, you would mix a sandwing, rainwing, and sea wing, and name it tuna. or even like- any of those 3 mixed- A tun can be a fish or a catcus fruit. Idk, 1:32 am thoughts ig...I'm claiming tuna, the sea-rain-sand hybrid as my oc now. dunno if i should draw em (Considering i'm not great at dragons) but y'know, maybe.
Colored animation I did of a Darkstalker design. Going to give him some jewelry and shadeing.
Looking at it now I probably should have had the head tilt down for the smile, but I'm not changing it now.
A more worked on animation loop
Working on an idle animation for my darkstalker design. I prefer simpler designs as they are easier to animate, though I still have some more to learn about character expression.
Darkstalker redesign!
Finally I am free from Calculus and can do art.
Anyways the changes from my previous design are small but I think it will help with animating expressions.
Whew!
An animation I've been working on for a while now. Fully colored!
Don't like these wings yet. Need to redesign them for flight.
Oh yeah, this is a Darkstalker design I've been working on. Still needs some details added before it's done but thought I'd share my progress.
I like the body shape
Progress sketches of Miller
A walk cycle I've been trying. Working on a color version but I'm being a lil lazy with it.
This is a Darkstalker design I've been working on. The coloring is still up in the air, but I like where it's going.
Darkstalker and Clearsight as they aged through the book.
It's gotten to the point that my phone no longer tries to autocorrect Darkstalker and recognizes it as a name.
I want to practice drawing baby chub on dragons. The darkstalker baby isn't very baby, really lean. Clearsight looks more like a baby but I think it's something I need to practice more.
