#WOF Nautilus

[flawseer]

Nuisance

To be entirely honest, I was really just looking for an excuse to draw Viper and Avalanche.

One has to wonder how Nautilus ended up as the leader of a political dissent group. He is... let's be charitable and call it "not particularly effective". Maybe the job is just a logistical nightmare, lots of number-crunching and map-reading, and no one else wanted to do it?

As a side note: I do not censor swear words on this blog, but I will try to add the "swearing" tag whenever particularly egregious instances of it occur, so you can filter it out.

Nautilus? :3

he's also sorta Inkling based, like my design for Squid

[noomycatz]

The quote reminded me of this meme

[can-it-dumbo]

I had thought of this a really long time ago and started drawing it, then I think something about the wing annoyed me and didn’t go back on it for maybe a year

revisited it and realized that I hated this art app (it’s a different one than the one I do projects on)

I still wanted to post it cause I do love this ship >:3 [Its Morrowseer and Nautilus…I had to look him up cause I forgot his name :3]

ALSO! THAT IS NOT AN OLD STYLE FOR MORROWSEER, IVE NEVER HAD A STYLE LIKE THAT, IDK WHY ITS LIKE THAT TTTT

Reasons why I hate that app <3 1. It’s slow, that’s why there’s so many breaks in the lines 2. Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I don’t have another reason 3. no lasso tool c:

Nautilus is honestly the weirdest character in the series for me.

Like, he's moraly grey at best, seeming unfazed at killing people at the least, and I don't think enough people pay attention to him at all. Which is . . . Sad. I kind of hoped he would be a bigger villain, or at least more entertaining, than he was.

I mean, also, Webs confirmed himself that it was, at the very least, Nautilus' idea to lock the dragonets underground. (I wonder how much the guardians themselves hated it.)

Also, iirc, Cirrus literally said that he joined the ToP to get better at murder. So, that was a semi-regular occurance. Jeez.

Day 131- Nautilus

[adamphoebe]

ok nautilus ngl that was mean as fuck you didn't have to say that to webs

[mentheii]

wof drawings i did for inktober!

notes:

4. exotic: glory + bird. design notes:

- cloud markings because i feel like she grew a habit of subconsciously trying to emulate a skywing. also yeah the raindrops represent her friends :) i think it’d be nice if all the dod had something like that

- purple fade to yellow on her ruff like a morning glory flower

- just in general all my rainwing designs have horns pointing forward like a jackson’s chameleon

10. nomadic: nautilus leader of the talons of peace. no design notes because he’s just based off a nautilus and that’s it 💀

16. grunge: jerboa!! except i didn’t know what to do for the prompt and just looked up grunge color palette. also no idea what kind of goofy ahh blocky artstyle i went with but it looks cool so. design notes:

- kept her triangle thing and also added wave markings because she lives next to the ocean

- her horns are supposed to look like jerboa ears but i dunno 💀

- earring is from glacier 👍

19. ridge: idiot besties. design notes:

qibli:

- swirlies because moon described his brain as a rushing river once so i guess ??

- horns are wavy because a qibli is a wind

- NOT piss yellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (joke)

winter:

- ourple. random spots and hearts just for fun

- beyond that though i have no idea????? like i wanted him to be pink because it’d be funny and now he looks like a plushie or something

- it is funny though so.

- his jewelry is not funny though what was i on 💀

21. rhinoceros: random hivewing. rhinos kind of look like animal crackers

28. jumbo: jumbo dragon with a jumbo ego 💀 design notes:

- yeah i did not think about bro at all 😭 this is absolutely not my final darkstalker design

- i think nightwings should be other metallic colors other than silver so he’s gold. now that i think about it it’d be nice if he was rose gold too

- but um. before i made him gold the Comically Large Teardrop Scales were supposed to be silver and make his face look more like an icewing’s so ignore that

- the little white speckles are a) from his soul reader thing and b) supposed to make him more icewingy

- yeah i think it’s funny to make him look more like an icewing because he hates it. i really like the idea that he looks more and more icewingy as he ages too

Nautilus, the loser himself!

WoF Reference guide - #02: Nautilus, Webs, Riptide

Another one of these headcanon visual references I've made for myself. I guess this one is the "Talons of Peace Seawings edition".

With this one and the last entry taken together, there are now two father-son pairs between them. One of my sub-goals with this was to examine and identify traits that would plausibly be passed down from parents to their children. We'll see how that goes.

Build is average, neither particularly fat nor muscular. Size is average too, but he has a tendency to stand very straight and rigid to make himself look taller than he is.

Proportionally large head; small, exceptionally dry nose; high cheek bones; pronounced Adam's apple; stubbly barbs growing out the back of the jaw.

Eyes and general resting expression have an air of self-importance and aloofness to them.

Horns curve upwards and are somewhat smooth, but not perfectly so.

Luminous areas on face and body form an intricate pattern of interlocking and crisscrossing black spirals that turn a bright neon green when lighting up.

Dorsal fringe made of leaf-like sections shaped like curly waves, with large gaps in between sections; ventral fringe is small and wispy.

Build is slender, bordering on gangly; tends to slouch, bad overall posture, makes him look small despite his size being slightly above average.

Head is somewhat elongated with bottle-shaped nose, similar to sea horse or dolphin; cheeks are sunken in.

Sad, tired-looking eyes, heavy eyelids; not particularly emotive. Slightly near-sighted.

Forehead fins are orderly and uniform in size and thickness, but with many splits and blemishes.

Horns extend straight backwards, smooth, little hooks at the end.

Luminous patches on face, limbs, and back are blotty and uneven with no clearly defined shape or size; ventral patches are narrow and slitted, shaped like rice grains.

Ventral and dorsal fringes wavy and all in one piece, reminiscent of sea foam.

Has a small luminous birthmark between two claws of his left front talon.

Frame is rather tall and well-built, muscular, fit.

Head shape angular with bottle-shaped nasal ridge, pronounced jaw and chin.

Eyes are open and friendly, but unnaturally dark for a Seawing. Tends to look serious and dutiful.

Forehead fins sweep forward, shaped in a way reminiscent of a wave about to crash onto the beach; texture is very rough with many splits and blemishes.

Horns curve backwards, texture smooth but shape somewhat twisty and gnarled.

Luminous patches on face, limbs, and back are blotty and uneven, fragmented in small clusters like freckles; ventral patches small, shaped like pomegranate seeds.

Ventral and dorsal fringes upright and protruding evenly, all in one piece.

Not quite sure who to do next yet. Maybe Gill, Coral, and Tempest.

Nautilus the Seawing (Based off nautilus)

[Image ID: A digital drawing of a green seawing dragon named Nautilus. He is short and stocky, with a yellow underbelly and dark green swirl markings all around his back and legs. He has tentacle like barbels on his chin and jawline. His tail is curling, with bioluminescent scales that look similar to a squid's suction cups. Lastly, his horns are similar in shape to a ram's horns, with red stripes on them reminiscent to a nautilus shell. He is standing stern and imposing, like he is giving a speech. /End ID]
