Zielona visage doodles!!

The first one is her "incognito" visage, where she's not obviously a dragon. She's a half night elf (half human), hence the shorter ears and less glowing eyes.

And Zielona's different appearances over time, which really is mostly these three. I wanted to see her "intermission" look when she's all anima'd up but hasn't taken a page from the dracthyr visage book yet.

Noxandria “Noxi”

Because of life and that I wasn’t able to finish this piece of my darling dragon gal, Noxi. Maybe one day ... but for now I shall present her as is :D

I recently threw together a take on each of the playable races if the Dragon Aspects donned them! This was a fun project and I might do some similar ideas with this in the future. Personal favorites were the void-corrupted variants with the Void Elves! Wrathion is certainly on the table too in the distant future!

A gift from my wonderful friend ThankU89121860 on Twitter of my Bronze Dragon Temporadormu in his Lorewalker Tem-Po pandaren visage doing some late reading by candle light. Thank you so much, my friend. I absolutely love this!

Dragon Visages in Lore

Ok so recently I saw @/kissfortheelves ask if Dragons could take any humanoid appearence or if the one they had was like, the one they had and that’s it. And I’ve seen a few people asking this same question, so I thought to share all that I know regarding this from my exhaustive consumption of WoW lore, in a neat little post xD Hope it helps!

Ok, so short answer is yes, by Lore, any Dragon can take any form they wish to, any time, anywhere. Shapeshifting is a magic inherent to them. However, it is stated that there’s a particular appearance they favour, the one they’re most comfortable with, and usually is the one they show themselves in when interacting with mortals.

The closest example I can give right now is Kalecgos, who looks like a half elf as his favoured visage. Although it has caused him some problems here and there (mostly during the Sunwell trilogy), he says that that’s the form he feels more comfortable in, so he doesn’t change it. Why that would make him look and sound exactly like Anduin, I’ve got no idea, but oh well

(Most of this I’m taking from what I remember from the Sunwell trilogy, so forgive me if new lore has come out that challenges this)

Another sample would be Kairozdormu the Bronze dragon, who took a male belf visage for most of pandaria, but when he took Garrosh to past Draenor, he took the appearance of a uncorrupted orc to blend in (you find him in that form in Draenor, or his corpse at least)

Then there’s Krasus/Korialstraz the Red Dragon, who has short black hair in the novels and the comics but has long blond hair In Game (¿? XD) although he remains a High Elf

I’m pretty sure there are more samples, but these are the ones I could gather from memory

It is also implied in the lore (although I’m not sure how canon this is still) that their visage can be affected by their mental state. Malygos canonically used a High elf with blue hair during the war of the ancients. However, after Deathwing’s betrayal and the almost destruction of his flight, we are told that he adopted a insect like form, small, thin like a skeleton, and covered in patches of ice. It is implied this is the result of all the grief and guilt that consumed him, which resulted in his “madness”.

Regarding gender, it’s clear that the one from the Dragon form doesn’t have to influence the one from the visage, although if this has special meaning it depends entirely on the character. Chromie/Chronormu is probably the most well known sample, as we know she transitioned from male to female (althought she kept her birthname) and took the visage of a female gnome. This is the only part where Dracthyr visage and Dragon visage seem to work the same, as there is a Dracthyr character who uses and is refered to as female in her draconic form, but is shown later in a male model visage form. The sceenshots that were shown to me were from the beta and I haven’t seen the characters in my exploration of the game yet, so I won’t say more in case this is considered a spoiler (or blizzard changed their mind).

I hope all of this was helpfull info, be nice to eachother and have fun!^^

Brigade Beach Tournament - Adria

The Brigade Beach Volleyball tournament has been hijacked by dragons and dragonkind this year. Adriagossa is one of the ladies who signed up for team Blue, bringing her untamed vigor and nifty moves into the game.

While summer pieces are definitely not among my favorite, for some reason I got really into the idea of Dragon/kin beach volleyball tournament and have planned at least 6 piece series. I just love designing the hybrid visage forms for our scalies, they offer unlimited possiblities!

Also - done in 12 hours using one brush only, yes.. I still work with my single trusty painting brush :) . I hope you like how it turned out. Do you have a character that would join the tournament? If so, share!
