hey there! i'm a big fan of justice driven characters, wondered if there's any particular reason for snapping turtle's sense of justice?
(also i love his design and your dragon style in general, they're so cool :)
tysm!!
Snapping turtle was hatched during a time of great tension. which caused the seawing queen to go into a worried panic. She began to provide rewards to any couple who hatched strong dragonets and put them on the path to become soldiers. This led many to scramble to hatch the strongest dragonets which also led to many "weaker" seawing hatchlings to be left behind. (Orphanages boomed and some seawings began to adopt a more mudwing style of living with sibling troops instead of the average family)
Snapping turtle was dubbed a "weak" hatchling due to his odd appearance. His parents sent him to Baleen, a royal scientist who was trying to start a counter effort to make sure the tribe had plenty of scholars, he didnt offer as much of a reward but a reward none the less.
Snapping turtle never saw his parents after that and gladly Baleen was a kind guardian. He never really gained the full respect within the palace and among nobles which further strengthened this sense of justice. "I didnt do anything to deserve this? I like how I look... its not fair that I am looked down on..." were common words spoken to Baleen.
No wonder he joined the talons of peace and no wonder he helped sunhunter
Small detour from my usual wof content. Made this for a playlistober prompt I never cared about you by the mixed matches. Amazing song.
Also recently got yellowfangs wish cause my local bookstore does have wof arc 2 for me to read at work. so library is next place I'm looking (i think they're back open. I'm in a smaller town so places like the library will close randomly lol)
But it makes me think of my cat ocs again
made a pokemon oc recently
Thalassa is a very successful model who decided to use her earnings to open "Large and in charge" a daycare for large Pokémon that are just a bit to big for the other daycare areas (ex wailords, a good chunk of legendaries, Alolan Exeggutors, and other taller than average Pokémon) Became a popular site and she was soon able to add on a gym. Her and her team of wailords became the water type gym with ease. Big man was her first Pokémon and has been on her team since she was a kid, spike is a battle hungry fella with a few extra spikes to match the name, old man is a wailord from the past, dun dun DUN is a robo wailord from the future, Grape is a shiny wailord, and Baby is the newest member of the team She loves all of them so much
Currently engaged to the fire type gym leader Pyr. Many media outlets are shocked by this as the fire type leader isnt a very popular man. Works a simple office job really only doing gym stuff on the weekends. To the other gym leaders though it is also a bit of a shock. They are rather opposites, Thalassa is a water gal who uses very big pokemon while Pyr is a fire guy with small pokemon. They love each other a lot though and prefer keeping their love life out of the nosy public eye anyways. 💕💕
Cirrus release‼️‼️
sadly still not 100% my vibe but wool and gnarlhorns go crazy. I think whats throwing me off is the lore doesnt feel as ancient as id prefer it. Still cool just not my vibe
I like to think that
Cirrus are rather large and while they have no wings to fly they can turn their entire body into a cloud to fly. Bigger the cirrus bigger the cloud body. Larger the cloud the more power and respect you wield.
Cirrus with gnarlhorns are seen as like leaders of the herd. They are often larger than other cirrus's to allow them to hold up the weight of the heavier horns
Cirrus's with wool are seen as exceptionally beautiful and they love to style it. They are very popular in communal sleeping spaces given their warm soft pelts.
battling cirrus helped shape the zephyr steps before attitudes changed toward more peaceful alternatives of working out differences arose.
They enjoy kites and wearing accessories to parties. Sadly not everyday as if they go to fly they would drop all they had on them.
Nothing to wildly different but still some personal changes and lore. Overall as a wind flight resident the cirrus are a lovely addition. Not my favorite but still I enjoy them. my little horse 🐎
I had a dream that I turned into a wasp-person so....... wasp-sona?? First two pics are me trying to copy what I saw, third is a more streamlined design inspired by red paper wasps!
A break in dragon content to bring you an oc. Supervillain scientist who got merged with a weevil. He's the CEO of WE[EVIL] the best henchmen provider in the world
And yes I see the spelling error on the logo 💀 a friend brought it up and I have yet to fix it BUT it did give inspiration to this comic
He works to be your weirdest boss so when you go out into the world no wacky villain will phase you. Evil laugh? Heard it. Odd outfit? I've seen an old weevil dude in a black skin tight suit this is nothing. Will critique how you email? Already happened. Overall he's my goofy guy
With the possibility of some sadder lore....
(idk why I can't just let my goobers live in peace man 😭)
What programs do you use?? I need to know what manifests these pretty pieces of art 😋
clipstudiopaint! (On pc specifically)
I made the bigger purchase of getting the full ex version but I truly feel it was worth the price. It's also cause I use the comic and animation tools alot lol. My favorite brushes are the default brushes g-pen and mechanical pencil.
currently getting silly in a wof arpg server.
First fella is Bubbles, he/him, a seawing with dwarfism. He doesn't like you but loves your money. (As well as beautiful plants, he'll never say it aloud tho) Won't back down to a fight ever. He may or may not have henchmen.
2nd lady is Flop! Also known as rabbitsfoot, she/her, a leafwing with an animalistic trait (gives your dragon an animal feature. I chose rabbit ears) nickname for her clumsiness she can hear you from miles away but the moment she whips around she gets a face full of ear. She's a sweetheart and enjoys crafts
Last dude is Pickle, he/him, a seawing with both gigantism and elemental (similar to firescales but you can give your dragon scale of any element. I chose electricity for an eel look 👀) BIG fella. Not the smartest guy but he's got passion. Even simple tasks are done with 100% effort and dramatics. While not very intelligent he's really good at insults and comebacks (or at least he thinks 💀 cause what are you gonna do? Fight a walking lightning bolt?)
Final art is a piece of bubbles with another arpg members oc Haze the skywing. (Next doodle will feature Pickle cause arpg member said it would be funny if someone asked "how the weather was up there" and was met with "stormy." *lightning bolt*)
some preening abberations and some thoughtful faes
idk if I ever shared my artfight here?
Heres some of my current attacks 👀
Feel free to follow me as I usually use that to select people (cause it's an easy link) I'm getting real silly this years with scenes
Honestly though it would be cool if scavengers were like wof's Bigfoot. No one has exactly seen them but dragons claim to have caught sightings. Claims of what they look like range. "I saw a big fuzzy one in the mountains!" "No I saw one and it was lanky with sharp claws!"
Humans in wof feel similar to when a horror movie shows you its monster too early. You often loose all suspense, fear, and mystery when that happens. Like it went from "omg did humans really take down a dragon queen? How?" to just "Oh.. ok I guess they did..and theyre just plain ol humans." If they were kept a bit more mysterious they probably could have meshed with the story better. cause really imagine if it was a dragonbite viper that killed oasis but due to the mystery around humans a rumor was started it was a scavenger.
Overall humans are an awkward fit in wof cause I dont think it was decided on whether they were harmless small creatures or powerful dragonslayers (lol) when it probably would have been better to lean into one or the other instead of keeping a middle ground. like I get there is some plot around that but it just doesnt feel like it works in this setting.
the series would have been better if scavengers were never there. imagine how cool it wouldve been if oasis died to a dragonbite viper, and burn died in the exact same way her mother did
.
They/them 19 ⫸ wof, pokemon, spiderman, etc (I dabble in many fandoms)⫸
