ITS GELFLING TIME BABYYYYYYYYYYYY

@ghostsessioned and her silly little lobotomy dousan

[randominktm]

I have always head-cannoned that each of the different clans would have different wing types but I never really sketched them out too much until now!

I will now go into why I made them the way they are, read if you dare •_•

Spriton: felt like the speedy and strong combo fit them pretty well so of course we had to go with the dragonfly-like wings.

Drenchen: pretty standard from the books here, more fin than wing as they’re meant to be used in the water more than air

Stonewood: these guys always reminded me of your stereotypical moth for some reason, maybe it’s because they hang out in the forest flocking around this one really big light but hey that’s just me.

Grottan: speedy and good at turning since they’ve gotta navigate all those tight spaces in the caves. Which, speaking of caves, there aren’t really a whole lot of flying cave bugs to go off of for this so we’re just gonna say that since the Grottans are sister clans to the Vapra they’ve evolved from there.

Vapra: since their mascot is the unamoth I wanted to use similar wing shapes and combined it with a comet moth. They’ve very pretty wings what can I say. They are easily the biggest wings out of the other 7 clans, with Grottan or Sifa in a close second.

Dousan: the smallest wings out of the bunch since the Dousan might not fly on their own as much considering the hot hot sun and the use of crystal skimmers for transport. They’ve got the little wing-tassel bits cause I feel like it would fit their vibe.

Sifa: since the Sifa are kind of the melting pot of all the clans I wanted their wings to be a bit of everything, the top wing shape and size from the Grottan, Vapra, and spriton, with the wing tassel things from the Dousan, the bottom wing shape from the Stonewood, and some webbing(?) connecting the wings together from the Drenchen (they’re out on the water a lot, who says they aren’t water comparable?). Essentially they are a mess. Wings can change depending on if they are related more to one clan than another, and they are by far the most varied wings out of all 7 clans.

AND THAT IS ALL I AM NOW GOING TO BED GOODNIGHT EVERYONE.

Nox Reference

I've been sitting on this ref forever, and finally decided to finish it for Art Fight!

If you can't read the small text:

The only Dousan in service to a Lord, though ‘servant’ doesn’t really describe her role. Attack/Hunting dog is more accurate. Regularly in disguise, she is deeply loyal to the Hunter. The two met when they were both sheltering from a sandstorm in a cavern. Temporarily blinded, she managed to land a hit on them. Impressed by that, and her more feral nature, skekMal recruited her as a Tracker.

Dousan have the longest wings, used to cool off from the unrelenting suns. Their ears are only second to the Grottan, also used to dispel heat.

Dousan have webbed feet, used to prevent sinking into the sands.

Day 2: Vliyaya

For Day 2 of the @dark-crystal-week challenge, I made the Vliyaya, the power of the Gelfling essence, prompt of a Sifan using her fortune telling powers.

And with that, I made my first ever Gelfing OCs. Kida of the Sifa Clan and Denahi of the Dousan Clan and youngest son of Madura Seethi.

Rian "I am a Stonewood, but I respect other Gelflings because I was raised among many different kinds of people. My late girlfriend was a Vapra, my best friend is a Drenchen, even if Deet is a Grottan I was the only person in Stone-in-the-Wood not to bully her over that or remark her over it, I hate Tolyn as a person not as a Spriton proof I like Kylan. I even am polite with Podlings outside of the ones from the Castle. If I were to meet a Sifa I would probably see them as a person"

Also Rian seeing Dousans

Here's Teevi, a post-AoR gelfling OC I made a while back. Haven't done anything with her since but she prefers being a background character anyway, so good for her. After being rescued (or kidnapped?) from the lab, she spends some time recovering in skekRhot's chambers, and then leaves the Castle to help other gelflings who've lost their homes.

My Gelfling OC, Isha

[thanatasia]

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!!

I made these a few weeks ago before I went full throttle with the big Gelfling oc project. Just some happy couples in winter sweaters lol

The first is the sweet Adora x Takoda ship! Aaahhh they’re too precious. I can’t wait to draw more of them because there’s a bunch to explore.

The second is Tau and Enyo who I believe are more flirting with each other. They’re interested in one another but neither has made a move to deepen the bond to a romantic one. Tau was originally going to have a beefy Dousan boyfriend because my sister demanded it lol Buut I feel like Tau is interested more in pretty softer featured Gelfling.

Enyo is on her road to becoming a better Gelfling. Some time after Fleur leaves Stone-in-the-wood is when Enyo explores Thra and begins rethinking certain beliefs her parents taught her. Fleur 100% calls Enyo out when she sees Enyo dating someone who isn’t Stonewood. Enyo’s growth is another story to be told.

We might see more Tau x Enyo because I think they look cute lol

Lastly, we have the Stonesan parents Maeve x Bhihaar! I love them and they are that married couple who is just so happy to be married and unafraid of PDA. I believe the PDA took some time for Bhihaar to get use to but he enjoys holding Maeve’s hands and pecking her cheek in public. Maeve on the other hand is unashamed- she loves her man and boy does she have a good man 😆

I have another set but I just haven’t finished it yet, so be prepared to see that in time

Gift art for my bestest friend @thanatasia ! This is her OC Fleur and her man’s Razer having a nice peaceful get away after he’s back from a long sailing trip in a forest of stone in the wood. They missed each other dearly!! Ahh this was a joy to illustrate! Both characters are beautifully designed and work so well off each other ! Can’t wait to see more fluffy and romantic content from their creators. Thanks for taking a look !

Fleur belongs to @thanatasia

Razer belongs to @myfanartblogplusshippingtrash/ @jack-toons
