#MawMay

[skyssplendor]

May is here! My best friend and I decided to shake things up a little bit - we both love dragons and creatures, so why not do MawMay instead of MerMay? This is our prompt list! If you'd like to use it for MerMay or any other May challenge, feel free! Just use #MawMay2023 so we can see your awesome creations ❤

Since reaper speaks Spanish, how fluent is it (can she read and write it)? And does she have a strong accent? Also what kind of Spanish? it changes depending on the country. I feel like since she learned it for Cassidy it would kinda resemble his (I’m Mexican so I’m a bit biased)! Also would we ever get to see her speak it in front of the 141? How would they react? It would be nice to see that exchange!

sorry for all the questions!! It’s just I got so excited over this! I just love your story :))!!

anon with my whole chest i say its Mexican Spanish (all of the slang and spanish that i grew up with was all Mexican Spanish. I've heard spaniards speak Spanish and i can't understand a damn thing)

a. she's completely fluent

b. her accent's pretty good

c. yeah mexican spanish bc she learned it for rigo bc his family is kinda her family, and she wanted less of a language barrier

d. she will speak it in front of the 141!! i want to include some of the slang that i know into her dialogue, especially in future chapters in las almas, but I'm not entirely sure how to incorporate it without it being cringe (Mexican followers pls let me know how you feel / how i should add slang :))

e. generally none of them would have any strong opinions about it, but soap would be over the fucking moon to learn. he's one of those guys that tries his best, but absolutely CANNOT do a fucking accent so its like "nouuu mawmays" (queue reaper and rigo fuckin cackling)

f. but u will see the 141 react to her speaking Spanish :))

tysm for the support and love <3 it means the world that I'm doing well and that I'm receiving so much love from you and everyone else :)

MawMay 08: Gust I was stuck on this prompt and had doodled some funky noodle dragons. My wonderful best friend pointed me toward koinobori and everything fell into place. They're so pretty!

MawMay 01: Radioactive Uranium glass is beautiful and fascinating. I threw a tiny bit of glass frog in there, too, for fun! 💚 For this challenge, I'm going to focus on shapes and rendering and I think this was a good start!

MawMay 13: Nature

This odd little mossy dragon is going to be my last, as much as I'd like to keep on. I'll be working on better ways to handle challenges so I don't burn out! Thank you for sticking with me for so long! ❤️

MawMay 12: Swamp Oof, that was a longer break than expected. Between vacations and a rough bit of burnout, I couldn't put any dragons out for a while. This guy is very simply, but I love his chunkiness!

MawMay 11: Kaiju Major artist's block with this one! 😵I've never drawn a kaiju before, so I was thoroughly stuck. Gave it a solid try, though!

MawMay 09: Sparks Just a little guy that lives between flint rocks and is full of attitude!

[skyssplendor]

MawMay 07: Metal I did a little impromptu research on horse armor for this one. It's pretty cool!

[skyssplendor]

MawMay 06: Deep Deep space? Deep sea? Both? Up to you!

[skyssplendor]

MawMay 05: Calamity

"Won't you please open my box?"

[skyssplendor]

MawMay 04: Toxic I'm thoroughly enjoying the process and having a lot of fun, so I might be getting carried away with these...

[skyssplendor]

MawMay 03: Fossil I'm torn between calling this little one Bean or Mango! So cute - and that eggshell hat

MawMay 02: Plasma I remembered playing with a large version of those plasma globes in an interactive museum and thought that would make a fun dragon. The colors were so much fun to play with - not to mention the glow!
