It's June, motherfuckers, and you know what that means! Apart from firing a few rent-lowering shots to filter out the chuds from my following, it's probably also a good time to post a reminder that there are many strange ways to be queer, and this is one of them.
video transcript below the cut, may be slightly inaccurate, I tend to ad-lib when reading my scripts into voiceover
It's Pride Month, so if you'll forgive me I'm taking a two minute break from the One Piece, League of Legends, Marvel Rivals, Final Fantasy and Pokémon shorts to tell you… Sylveon is trans, Taliyah is trans, everyone on the Straw Hats is queer, there are no words to describe how queer superheroes are as a concept let alone how queer they all are individually, and here's a fun fact for you: Cloud Strife's story gets ten times better when you understand it as an allegory for a trans coming out experience.
As for me, well, I'm not trans, but I do occupy my own little space in the rainbow flags which looks like this. I am aromantic.
We are generally not as visible as many of our queer siblings, probably at least partly because it's kind of a difficult identity to even discover in yourself, you basically have to prove a negative.
But what is this thing, "aromantic"? Well… okay, let's say you're a straight guy, right. You know the way you feel romantically about other men? I feel exactly the same way, and then I also feel that way about women, and then also the same way about all of the other genders.
Now, aromantic often goes along with asexual, there's a lot of co-occurrence of the two, but not always, and that is my situation. Yes to sex, no to romance, which being a man, yes, I know, that just makes me the same as 90% of the men you match on Hinge. "Ha ha ha didn't realize "fuccboi" was an orientation now," I know. I get it. I understand. I have had all the same thoughts myself, especially when I was questioning.
Which is the difficulty with being aromantic, because in order to figure out that that's what you are, you have to prove a negative. I have never been in love, and I have no reason to think I ever will be… but what if someday I meet The One??? What if there's a special divinely designated perfect soulmate out there, just waiting for me, and one day our eyes will meet across the room and it will be love at first sight forever?
And like. I can't prove that won't happen, anymore than I can prove that there isn't a flowery pink teapot currently hiding somewhere in the orbit of Saturn. And frankly, if it did happen, I wouldn't be mad. Why would I be? I would have a soulmate! That's a pretty big W, I think.
But… I've had over thirty years to encounter someone—anyone—who can spark my romantic interest, and thus far, every challenger of every gender has failed. So either I am aromantic, or else you people have a skill issue.
Anyway, like anything to do with queerness, aromantic is a sprawling and diverse spectrum. You got your aroaces, aroallos, aroflux, arospikes, demiromantics, frayromantics, grayromantics, cupioromantics, there's a whole world of different experiences present under this umbrella. For me, though, just "aromantic" is fine. That's the broad label, that's the one I fall under, that's the identity I take pride in. Happy June!
So this lad I've not drawn motsh and not posted here, but this is one of the gods in my world in his "moral" disguise. Anuva, god of knowledge and Mind. and a chronic over thinker lol

crawling out of my hole, and I'm not a great teacher but I'm here with some visuals and some maybe-helpful advice.
My general approach is to get ideas from everywhere. Other artists, tv shows and movies with dragons in them, ttrpg art, animals, inanimate objects, everything! And grab inspirations from animals or shapes you wouldn't normally think of - deer, hummingbirds, owls, lizards of all kinds, snakes, dogs, anything random. Stapler removers. Instruments. The fun part about drawing dragons is there's so many different ways to draw them.
All of these images came from my "dragon inspiration" pinterest board.
My second piece of advice is to take a step back from the details. Zoom out of your drawing, work small with a big brush, only focus on the main shapes. Details don't matter as much if your overall silhouette of the character isn't there. It will be a struggle at first, but it will become easier as you do it.
Think about how the dragon would fit into its environment, what adaptations would help it live. What kind of lifestyle - birdlike, batlike, underground, etc. and try to incorporate that into the features. A swimmer is gonna have a sleeker design than a brute fighter will. Think about personality traits or status - royalty may have big horns and spikes, a sneaky or quiet dragon may have more snakelike features, etc. we use animals and shapes to convey things about characters right when we see them, before we have to read any lore.
Push those shapes to their limits! Work in broad strokes, then come back down to the details later - play around with head vs. muzzle size, convex vs. concave, straight vs. crooked, and have fun with it first. Really consider what sorts of features are going to inform who that character is, what kind of dragon it is, where it lives, what it eats, everything. And you can even subvert expectations if you so wish! Maybe you have a snakelike dragon, but instead of being stealthy they end up being super bubbly and talkative (Kinkajou) or they look scary but they're just a softie underneath (Winter, Peril)
I'm not the best at putting things into words but hope something helpful is somewhere in there for someone ^^
