Hi tumblr, I'm new here so I think I will start with reposting some of my (a bit) older art, few at a time. Those are some of my favs from last Smaugust.

Smaugust 4 - Draco saturnia

Last month I asked people to send me some of their favorite animals/plants/minerals. I'm now dragonizing the items on that list for Smaugust art prompts, attempting to draw one a day through the entire month.

This dragon is inspired by Saturnia pavonia, a moth of the British Isles. I went with a body plan inspired by dragons in European medieval art as homage to the moth's native range.

Smaugustfell2022 - Day 9 - SWAMP

A bright morning, the god of the rivers raises his wing to block the sun for the farmer hes watching work.

Not exactly a swamp, but the deltas of Anemoi flood into fields and are cultivated for rice. The culture of the Deltas is not significantly different then the mountain ranges, but they do have an interesting relationship with their god. Susurro is actually a fairly young god, only having been born after his father, Exitiums revival. Susurro is very involved in the lives of his worshippers, and is co-worshipped by them with the God of Anemoi, Pinna as well as both of their mothers, Rryme, Goddess of the ocean.

The Deltas have been fought over by Ishida and Anemoi both through war in the past, and through land deals. If you were to ask a Delta though, they would consider themselves their own people; especially now with their own god at their side.

Susurro, being a young god is still learning much about being a god; and spends a lot of his time watching his people or sometimes generally being in the way by lazing about the rivers, the flood fields and the tide pools closer to the coast.

I finally finished my set of spherical/orb dragons in the "cute art"/"kawaii art" style. ;u;

“Under”

Even more so than sauropods, dragons are ecosystems unto themselves. Their carnivorous habits leave them crawling with particles of blood, flesh, and the microorganisms that will feed on them. Which, in turn, provides food for countless insects. Others choose to do what few legendary heroes can boast and slowly eat and kill the dragons.

Pictured here parasitizing a blue dragon: a giant tick, a mosquazo (relative of the mosquito adapted to finding tiny chinks in dragon scales, along with minor elemental resistance), dragon barnacles (parasitic snails), and a small lightning elemental prolonging its energy body by stealing the elemental power from the unsuspecting tyrant.

Kobolds are more than just household guards.

Bird-based dragon for #kelpiesmaugust

[camelidae]

Though colloquially called the Bark-winged Birdsnatcher, the most common prey items of this little dragon are the fingers of unsuspecting entomologists.
