"Bodhi, a pearlcatcher with robotic legs and a dark family history..."

The October batch is looking good! Lmk what you all think ^^

Being Immortal SUCKS!!

Still a WIP, but I made something with the egg squad last night for fun! I’d like to color it if I have time. Lmk how you like it!

Heyo, since Hurricane Ian blew away some funds, I figured it’s time to open up commissions again! I’ll be drawing your FR characters for the next month or so, so be sure to get in on the action!

Character: "What did I do to deserve this pain? Please tell me there's an end to my suffering..."

Creator:

"I'm sorry, little one..."

Would you ever try to find dragons that resemble the egg eaters or are you fine with continuing the new story of the subclans? Also do you miss your old dragons from your original account?

Hmm...That's tough. Probably not the Egg Gang, since replicating them would take time and I already consider their sprites finished. The Egg Eater story is still going on, but for now I'm giving the Ancient Subclans the spotlight. It's all intertwined with learning new techniques, especially composition and backgrounds(EVIL) so we'll be on the Ancient Subclan story for the time being, maybe with a few Egg Eater posts here and there.

Honestly, I'm just glad I can visit them. The lore's all intact, so there's not much I can complain about really.

A little painting of Chieftain Amber! Wanted to test out some new brushes, and she doesn’t get enough screen-time. Such a glamorous mirror deserves to be painted.

Chapter two of TAT(Tale’s from Ancient Talos) coming soon....

@transtundras-fr Thank you for creating such a beautiful banner:D The inclusion of the arrow & star makes this feel like an ancestral family crest. Such an inspired design choice! Arkadi would hang this on his wall ^^

The second of my series on @hypergryph ‘s ancient talosian chieftains, Hunter Arkadi! I took inspiration from medieval banners for his pose, super excited to see more of his story develop!!!

My favorite panel from ‘Hunter’s Mask’. (Previous post) Flight rising and manga go so well together, don’t you think?

My hand slipped...

(✧ᗜ✧) By the Eleven, this is wonderous!!

An emperor-sized thank you to @niyerahain​​ for this marvelous surprise!

 Lillune’s markings, her genes, her rings...You put a great deal of love and care into this piece, and it shows. Especially considering the work of drawing crystal and facet, which I know first-hand can be a complicated process. You’ve made my entire month, and I can’t thank you enough ✧٩(•́⌄•́๑)و ✧

A special surprise! Healer Lillune for @hypergryph !!! Aka crash course in relearning crystal/facet. I genuinely love her lore and plan to draw more of the chieftains, but I just had to start with her!!! Modeled her anatomy after a gazelle.

Inka of the Obsidians. Being born into a subclan of performers means being surrounded by talent. And talent needs a stage... Inka tends to her famous topiary garden, within which lies her clan's ancestral pride and joy: The Moonlight Amphitheater.

To be ward to the Moonlight Gardens is to take on a coveted ancestral role...One no Talosian dare take lightly.

With that said, Inka is Luxtail's harshest detractor, and believes his interests in implementing elements of combat are an affront to the Obsidian's sacred arts.

Arcticore is a younger, more rebellious member of the prodigious Ivory Subclan. Unlike her peers, who find joy in the scribblings of equations and study of theorems, Arcticore’s interests lie in the supernatural and the occult. 

The birdskulls around her neck were sourced by the hunter Lukos of the Ceruleans, and then imbued with magical properties by Pippix of the Orcas. On clear, moonlit nights, she uses them to summon strange and otherworldly beings...Needless to say, the other nerds Ivories are both intimidated and in awe of Arcticore. 

“NO YOU DON’T!!”

In response to this comic and @coatlscoatlseverywhere ‘s amazing meme skills, I present  Matthias about to face the wrath of God. Idk how I missed the mention, but I’m glad I found it! 

Today’s an art experimentation day!

Had a hankering for horror, and who better to draw than Okira? I had a blast experimenting with the line-weight, as well as implementing a different style into the mane and wings. Finally nailed down how to get that “Wispy” look for his hair, though it could use some practice! 

Anywho, if you guys have any thoughts on the style or just want to comment, feel free to lmk!

Just an Abby having a “lucky” snack!

@crimniko The LORD HIMSELF!!

You did a phenomenal job at capturing his elegance! Especially in his face, the swoop of his horns & crest, and that stoic, overseeing pose.

This is an absolute delight, thank you so much for creating it!

Lord Talos

Since I saw the new design of @hypergryph 's design of Talos, I really wanted to draw it. Sadly I could only do it on day care work so its not the most flashy drawings but I think it turned out pretty. :]

I found your YouTube channel by accident and I just wanted to tell you that the animations are v nice, smooth, and expressive!

Dude you just made my day! Thank you, and welcome to the channel!

Lord Talos Redesign (Why must my posts keep vanishing?)

Overhauled Talos’ old design into something way cooler, especially for his earlier years. 

Ancient Talosian Lore: Lord Talos has tried to step back and give the Chieftains a chance to lead together. Hopefully nurturing a sense of kinship with their sister clans, as well as practicing a healthy bit of independence, will create a clan that can outlive its founder.

Actually Im curious. Would there be any Obelisks in the ancient talosian kingdoms or do they not exist yet? Considering they're the youngest breed to date

As for ancient dragons:

The ancient Talosians have no knowledge of them, misinterpreting encounters as run-ins with monsters or spirits.
