#Wof skywing

[hyerratia]

Originally, the 'Royal Trait' of Skywings were brightly colored scales that were almost never red/orange/yellow whatever.

But sometime after Carmine's rule and before Firestorm's, there was an extremely tyrannical queen (think worse than Scarlet). Thus there had been an uprising and another (non-royal blooded) Skywing was put in her place.

And the royal family since has been various shades of red and orange like the rest of them.

The last dragon in my trilogy of sillies, Hawk the Skywing!

He uses she/he pronouns (but prefers the latter, he likes the masculine sound of it)

Fun fact - he's a fugitive! He's running from the skywing kingdom for a murder. (More about that at a later date)

Second fun fact - he and seaglass are together! They both are currently hiding out on a (soon not to be) secluded island in the bay of a thousand scales.

Wanna know more about my sillies? Feel free to try and contact the High Fae! I'm sure they'll be more than willing to answer your messages (in other words, send me an ask, I'm just keeping up the fairycore theme I got goin on lol :3)

Here's a design I made a while back, It's a skywing/nightwing hybrid. Im still pretty proud of the design. Tried to make them as spooky as possible (even though I made the design in April lmao) If anyone is interested in this design it's still up for grabs as an ota :) (Offer to adopt)

How to Spot a Dragon Before it Spots You!

(Written by a human for humans in the Wings of fire universe).

Transcriptions of my chicken scratch and closeups of each tribe can be found here (two separate posts)!

Otherwise, next week I begin Overcomplicating the Pantala tribes. See you then!

I was inspired by a bird of prey identification poster at my sister's school. It had a very similar layout. I really loved the coloured poses and the multiple silhouettes and thought it would work so well for the Wings of Fire dragons. I'd seen another artist experiment with their wings shapes and wanted to give it a try myself. This is the result! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

All the designs you see here are not final - I drew these without properly planning their full bodies, but the final versions I will try to keep as similar as possible. The only change I might make is the position of their wings. I also won't go back and change this because it doesn't need it. They look good enough like this and, who knows, the changes I make might not be enough that the final designs would be any different. I will be doing a lot of muscle and skeletal anatomy, possibly written in the perspective of a NightWing since they seem like the type to explore the insides of a dragon for science.

This, however, is written in the perspective of a very lucky human who saw these dragons and lived to tell the tale. Or maybe it was a collaborative effort between multiple people adding their own wisdoms, like the Dragon Manual in HTTYD 1. I haven't read Dragonslayer but I think they refer to the dragons as '[element] dragon' (not [Element]Wing at least). I also think that they're not sure RainWings exist (at least according to the 'Here Be Dragons?' over the rainforest, but I didn't want to exclude them from this piece).

The main purpose this guide would serve in-universe would be to help humans identify dragons, preferably before ever being seen. That's why I used a lot of auditory and movement descriptions unique to each tribe, ways that a person could identify a dragon without needing to be close.

I'll be splitting the closeups into 3 and 4 tribes each following this post so you're not scrolling for 10 years (you still will be but I'll try to keep it brief. Will I succeed? No!

Stay tuned next week for the beginning of Overcomplicating the Pantalan Tribes: SilkWings!!!

That one scene from Escaping Peril actually goes so hard I love it.

Skywings have a common scale mutation which makes their scales thicker and 'plated.' Making them appear to be 'feathered'.

But because their scales overlap in such a manner it can cover up their heat vents, causing them to overheat. Though it isn't enough to be fatal it can make them smoke after extended flame usage, which is both annoying and a bit of safety hazard (as smoke is coming out of their heat vents excessively, which can cause breathing and sight difficulties).

#22 - "Misshapen"

Smaugust 2024

This one goes out to all the Bigtail fans out there whose names start with the letter "O".

When I imagine Bigtail, I don't know why, but I think he is into pottery. He's not very good at it and all of his creations turn out as weird lumps, but he keeps trying. What a trooper.

Also, it turns out that some of these prompts are fertile grounds for recycling ideas I've so far only put into ramshackle 15-minute idiot comics and then dumped into some folder without showing more than a handful of people. I guess I can show one of them off now.
