#false dragonets

[goldeninsanity50]

Interesting fact about lava wof fans.

Media and books treat lava like a liquid water, but it's melted rock. It's extremely thick and dense, meaning that queen battlewinner would actually have a really hard time moving.

It's litterally swimming through liquid rock, so most things that fall in lava, actually fall on top of it, not in it. It takes a very long time for things to sink so in reality the false dragonets would have watched and heard Viper burn to death on top of the lava, instead of just disappearing under the surface like water.

I drew the False DoD!

Details under the cut (from left to right.) also minor spoilers for the first arc.

Viper: I really loved drawing her- her colour pallet and expression were so fun to do. I wish we got to see more of her character, I feel like she had some wasted potential. Squid: I LOVE his design. I think it might be my favourite out of the five. I like the jewellery I added to him. He’s canonically obsessed with treasure, so I think Nautilus would eventually just give in and get him some. Also I made his pupils rectangular because I headcanon that MudWings and SeaWings under a lot of stress would have those. Just a nod to how he isn’t as shallow as he seems. Fatespeaker: I made her eyes all white to show that she has ‘foresight’. She doesn’t really. I’ll give you the option to choose whether I put that there for symbolism, or if you think she learned to roll her eyes up in her head to convince people her visions were real. Ochre: I tried to make him look bigger but it just wasn’t happening. In the end his design was pretty bland, just your average MudWing dragonet, if much grumpier. Sorry, guys. Flame: I made him pink, which I think suits him a lot. He was the first one I drew, so I like him a lot. This is before the incident with Viper, so he doesn’t have his telltale scar.

Fatespeaker the Nightwing

[Image ID: A digital drawing of a dark purple Nightwing dragon named Fatespeaker. She has a fruit bat like face with a bat like nose, and rounded spines that run from her head to her tail. Her underbelly starts as a light purple at her throat but then transitions into more of a blue purple after a diamond shaped marking on her chest. She has star freckle markings notably on her tail and scattered on her limbs, most notably with an array of them on her right wrist that make it look like she has a bracelet. Her face and claws are a darker purple than her base color, giving her markings similar to a Siamese Cat. She has tear drop scales and an oval marking on her forehead. Her wings are a light purple with starry nightwing markings. Her eyes and horns are a blue purple. She is posed flying and gazing with an expression of wonder and enjoyment. /. End ID]

Crossover of two flames. One from Wings of Fire and another is from Spyro: A Hero's Tail and Shadow Legacey and who becomes incredible popular in many fan works and often nicknamed "The Red Spyro" 💙

aaugh i never thought i would procrastinate so hard on posting here but whaddaya know this has been sitting in my drafts for days.. mostly because school has started up again for me and im too tired in the evenings to write out my thoughts on things SJKKHJ

anyways, ive been feeling extremely nostalgic recently, so as a bit of a warmup-gone-out-of-control here are the fake (well, backup) prophecy dragonets! remember this reveal absolutely shocking me reading the books as a kid. their dynamic is wacky.

an in depth explanation of their designs under the cut!

something i initially didnt like, but now think is a striking visual, is the fact that their designs really don’t go together - especially compared to the actual prophecy dragonets. was puzzling over this for ages, trying to figure out how to make them more cohesive, but eventually just decided to leave it. i think it fits since they really dont get along lol.

the problem with making starflight (check previous posts/tags) purplish is that now fatespeaker has to be a more saturated purple to distinguish the two - she additionally has faint teardrop scales by her eyes to add some spice to her design. i think canon should give nightwings more unique silver scale patterns as well, like fatespeaker's "bracelets" (sadly not included here)!

i want to eventually revisit flames scar, it didnt really come out how i wanted it to. other than that, i like his colours and his pose! you might notice that as i recall how to draw dragons again ive slowly been working on my poses and expressions, making them more dynamic.

seawings are one of my favourite tribes to draw so i really liked designing squid, although he hasn’t really made that much of an impression on me. i should eventually make a palette tracker of all the colours for the tribes, to make them more unified? or alternatively, focus more on the shapes and attributes of each one. i like making seawings squishy and frilly, like some sea animals!

viper is probably my favourite design out of this batch! i really like her colours, although they border more on the palette id use for ocs - eg. is she recognizable as a canon character? i do like her pose though!

and finally ochre - i seriously can’t remember any of this guys dialogue. with this though i did manage to nail down my mudwing designs, varying horns and tusks. maybe i’ll draw clay’s sibs next?? no one knows, not even i.. but i am currently in a character designing mood!

Artists of WoF,

Imagine if there were more than one group of false dragonets. Imagine if our main cast were false dragonets.

Obviously we know the prophecy is fake, so then what's to stop the Nightwings from ensuring there are multiple failsafes? Just make it so the location of the dragonets is kept secret except from the Guardians watching them and the Nightwing assigned to them and bada boom you get multiple groups of dragonets.

Dragons not born on the brightest night? Okay, you made the prophecy Nightwings, take the eggs until they hatch then give them back to the Talons.

What if the main cast is a failed group that unfortunately established themselves as the true dragonets in the eyes of the public.

Imagine if Starflight's book was about him slowly learning about all these false dragonets who do not know about the main cast due to being sheltered all their lives and Morrowseer decides to cut his losses and get rid of the failsafes in case anyone puts two and two together.

Cue drama

Squid the Seawing

[Image ID: A digital drawing of a green short and shrimpy seawing dragon named Squid. His bioluminescent scales glow a neon green color. The fins that sit on top of his head are tentacles until it transitions into regular seawing fins. He has a long feeder tentacle-like tail. Dark green fins are on his chest, front arms, the back of his neck and on his tail. He has forest colored swirl markings on his shoulders and legs just like his father Nautilus. He is standing with a smug expression. /.End ID.]
