what if they were so so tiny

#i spent an embarrassing amount of time on this lol #pixel art really is just about moving the same two pixels around for hours trying to understand what works best #it's fun trying to capture their shapes on such a small scale though #wally darling #welcome home #my art #eddie dear #sally starlet #julie joyful #frank frankly #poppy partridge #barnaby b. beagle #howdy pillar

Prompt 300

Danny squirms and hisses, trying to dig his claws into dark scales as the clouds whistle by. “Wait- Ancients dammit- STOP!” he shrieked, cursing how tiny his own ghost form was compared to his other not-quite-future-self. Wings that could easily dwarf the entire Ops center beat through the air, fast enough to cause his eyes to sting.

“Dan- bring me back- stop-” he wailed, despite the grip on his scruff not even loosening. Yet the larger dragon didn’t so much as twitch back towards Amity, the city disappearing into the distance like a speck. “We have to go back-”

The GIW were- were- They had to go back! The portal was gone (exploded, broken and all of Fentonworks a smoldering mess, oh Ancients he’s gonna be sick-), no one could return to the Realms, they were all sitting ducks-

“Jordan please-” he begged, even though he already knew that between the city, between every other ghost and them, Dan would always choose to keep them safe. But Jazz was hurt, she wasn’t waking up from where she lay limply cradled in Dan’s claws.

There was so much blood, and he only knew she was still alive from the weak fluttering of her core, growing stronger as her heartbeat faded. She needed help, she needed doctors- he doesn’t know if she would be able to come back, not with how they were leaving the ecto-rich city behind and he didn’t want to lose her- Dan’s blank panic was swamping his own, drowning both of them in the emotion as the dragon tore through the sky. Some part of him knew they couldn’t stay in Amity anymore, but- But Jazz needed help- Danny couldn’t help the tears that dripped from his yes, pretending it was merely the clouds as they flew to places unknown to him.

If you are interested in their designs, here is a link: HERE

Heey mutual @radiance1 Dragon buddy o' mine & @hdgnj u might enjoy

#DCxDP #DPxDC #Prompts #Ghosts are Dragons #Dad Dan #Halfa Jazz #Ellie is also there as a Core & needs to regrow her body thanks to the Portal explosion #Dead Fenton Parents #But up to you if they were good or bad #Combine Danny’s & Vlad’s obsessions & you get overprotective family-obsessed dragon of the Sun #Sun Core Dan #Ocean Core Jazz #Space Core Danny #Moon Core Ellie #As I currently don’t have art for a dragon Jazz imagine blue-scaled serpentine dragon with fins down the tail &#coral-shaped horns & bright orange hair down the spine that looks like shimmering honey at times not unlike Dan’s fire fur #They could be going to Gotham or to Nanda Parbat or anywhere with a Pit #Their flight also gets spotted by several heroes because Big Fucking Dragon #Several Time Travellers pale because that is the Thing That Destroyed the World up and about #and it is a few years too early they Think for it to be discovered or awake or anything-#What do you mean there’s two hatchlings & an egg-thing

Golden Fleece

#my art #cotl #cotl lamb #blood #it was really fun to ponder this one #cause in the game sprite the body on the fleece has the scale-like texture but the hem is sharp like the standard fleece #i felt a 2 tiered piece would work nicely to show both of these contrasting elements #the sprite always makes me think of gold scale mail but i wanted to avoid it looking explicitly like armor #since the fleece gives you stacking atk damage in exchange of taking 2x damage when hit #although tbqh gold armor would be fucking pointless anyways. gold is a very soft metal. which may have been the point but w/e #instead i wanted the shapes to be more reminiscent of wool since like. yknow. the golden fleece #and i wanted it to speak of luxury and power but be rather impractical for movement or protection #i just wanted to do an axe for funsies and by wonderful coincidence remembered the godly axe was gold :]#anyways this pose is brought to you by my stupid ass who spun too hard with my upper body when swinging a bat and felt cool for 1 second #before totally unbalancing myself and falling #the instant after this image lambo eats shit. rest in peace

More Epic: the animated show fake screenshots because I promised them and my brain would not let go.

Open them up for all that crispy quality and the little Oddyseus faces (istg I love that man).

Part 1 with God Games here!

#sol art #my art #epic: the musical #epic: the troy saga #epic the musical fanart #the odyssey #odysseus #zeus #poseidon #hermes #greek mythology #I have this headcanon thah the gods can change shape and size at will #so of course they can disguise themselves as humans #but they also change scale for scenic and intimidation purposes #which is why Zeus and Poseidon are almost always gigantic #while Hermes is human-sized most of the time #he also floats around he never walks

Done (heavy quotation marks) with monster Ody @evergreen292 ;)

tbh I couldn’t for the life of me pick a color palette I liked And Render it so I gave up on color. Enjoy the half assery.

Tbh I’ve just been call it Ithacan Naga, but it’s objectively it’s a mix of snake, owl/bird, and human. So 🤷.

Tbh the wings are supposed to be white/gray-brown, cause owls & Hermes, while his scales are supposed to be an oscillating scale from sea green-blue to purple-tinted gray. Uhm. Evidently that sorta didn’t happen but also did. So.

The purple/grayer scales are gonna be more around with the feathers and wings.

Those fin colors are. Too blue and too bright but I love the colors themselves so they’re staying for now.

Uhm. That’s it for now, ig. I’m sorta on a timer rn and I’m tired so <3

The writing bit with this is still in the works (😭)

#Odysseus #epic the musical #Ithacan naga au #guess that’s what we’re calling it #an Ithacan naga would deadass just be an aquatic naga #I think #the feathers and wings are cause he’s Zeus/Hermes’ kin & Athena blessed #tbh the main reason i wanted to color at all is cause I wanted easier differentiation between… everything. and actually draw the scales.#so snakes have this extra (?) bone that connects their skull & jaw which is what lets them extend it. so. ody gets that here.#resting/casual naga ody is like. 7ish ft? anything intimindation or just rising usually reaches 11-12 ft. his full length js 20 ft #naga eyes don’t have any eyelids. it looks very odd on a human (unsettling)#owl eyes don’t really have visible white scelcra #or however you spell it #nor do snakes #unsettling #maybe I’ll caption this later but hhhhh #he’s sorta supposed to be an olive sea snake and fish owl #but fuck colors rn #uhm cause he’s aquatic I suppose he does have to make up with Poseidon… uhm let’s say after everything Seidon picks up a fuss and Athena #argues back n everything and it causes a reallllly big fuss so Zeus (+ others) eventually work smth out that basically amounts to:#Don’t fuckin bother each other (intentionally)#also endgame for naga ody (he can change back and forth dw) is that he gets used to it. he doesn’t advertise it cause he’s sneaky like that #(and after he gets over the self loathing). uhmmm. yeah. It’s great cause NEREID PEN and SEA NAGA ODY #they can go on sea hunts together!!!!#ody CAN fly yes. same logic that lets Hermes fly with 2 small pairs of wings on his ankles and head.#he folds the wings when swimming and the fins fan out underwater. vice versa. his feathers are waterproof.#you can BARELY see the vauge shape of thighs/legs melting into the serpent part btw.#Ari’s art #my art #I’mma add onto this + actually type this out in a post later or smth

hey so if yakumo puts up an essence shield does it looks like

this.?

this?

or this??

#behold... MY COMPRESSED PIXELS!!!!#i swear during berserker oli or smth yaku made a shield that was shaped like a snake going AAAAAHHHHHH #and it sorta absorbed all the attack into its maw #which...thinking about it .... wouldn't that hurt extra?#letting an energy blast hit you directly on your (lack of) tonsils?#why wouldn't you block it out with your more solid skin? unless the snake is a indeed magical energy shield snake #and the offending attack is just a tasty snack. like a refreshing smoothie (but with velocity)#which led me to the idea of defensive cinnamon roll snake #they're shielding themselves while rolling up into a tight bun???#or yaku could have scrapped the theatrics and just gone for a simple covering shield like the 1st one #maybe it woul dbe basic round shape overall but with a little snake flair textured like scales. like a honeycomb of protective reptile skin #actually . you know what.#next time yakumo puts up a shield it's just gonna be a massive projection of: 🥺#the massive face will catch anyone offguard.... protective watery eyes emoji #mirage of scales #nu carnival yakumo

me before SoTE: Gehrman 🤝 Miquella on being seen as creeps and awful people by fandom over misinterpreting some bits!

me after SoTE: Gehrman 🤝 Miquella on not being able to accept the drastic change (mostly to the worse) of a person they held dear and latching onto their former, "nicer" version, attempting to resurrect that version even although the result is a bit of just a husk (.....AND being seen as creeps and awful people by fandom over misinterpreting some bits lololol)

_________

I guess they're doomed to be friends no matter what gfjhjgv At least with Gehrman's crafting skills, he can make him many pretty dresses

#soulsborne #bloodborne #gehrman the first hunter #elden ring #miquella the unalloyed #this trope is so unhealthy yet so sad #it is fascinating to think about though!!#but yeah...... happy end? lol gfjggjh #they're the 'he just doesn't understand!' guy #especially miq because with gehrman he is very justified with the grief of loss #meanwhile with radahn it was basically putting him out of 'misery' because he insisted on becoming Hoarah Loux 2 #gfhgfghv awful way to put it I know but this is true #I'd argue that the scale on which demigods think is naturally a bit different from average humans tho #like psychology of the guys that have capacity and intention of shaping the world isnt 100% like us simple gremlins #but still heh #I discovered a thing I love to explore #the 'this isnt real you fuck come back' guy

it is once again that time where i compare fornax's face textures from vanilla > a bit after dt (i may have forgotten that i edited their face markings to be erased where the current face scars are, so uhh whoops...!) > to current :)

truly an eternal passion project, but a labor of love... handsome and very kissable (and bitable) face

#fornax #au roe #if only their pre dt face survived the sundering... would've been nice to have that comparison in there too since they had tiny jaw scales #like ofc i still have pics but. i wanted them all in the same angle/lighting and i didn't wanna replicate it from an old one #their body shape has also come a very long way...... and well. just textures in general...! maybe before and after pics for that some day

Origami Basilisk V2 designed by Bodo Haag and folded by me. One uncut square of double tissue paper, one side blue and the other white.

I'm pretty happy with this one for my second scaled model!! Chicken dragon...

#origami #paper folding #paper art #paper #origami art #sort of a dragon #basilisk #cockatrice #fantasy creatures #chicken #???#I didn't even feel the need to add glue and wire when shaping the tail #it's just shaping with mc #but yeah. had the itch to fold some scales
