Some dragons of Keratasa, focused on in Corpse Eyes (the fifth major part of Kenopsia.)

Drew this for new years, as 2024 is set to be the Year of the Dragon, come February. And I've never drawn all of them together before like this, sooo.... yep!!!

I hope to make this part of Kenopsia a comic as well!! Maybe to parallel Stars Below to prevent burnout...? who knows!

oh abso-LUTELY. in actuality, they look do pretty frightening, but there's a ton of artwork and such ALL around the City depicting them as cute and benevolent just like this, like guardian mascots:

I was originally planning a Miyari-centric animatic, which would mainly feature this sort of 50's aesthetic and general art style, and would've featured a ton of super stylized Officers in this similar style!

Here's a Miyari concept from that same thing:

Pre-ruin or no.. just curious!!

OK SO BASICALLY- the Violet City, for those unaware, is an impossibly massive surface city on the planet of Keratasa. It's on the eastern supercontinent of Peraraksa, near the equator and a little bit north; it's in a bit of a savannah-like area, though they have built artificial lakes.

The entire city is shaped like a flower, sort of like an actual violet, with many different "levels" of districts. Each district is on a "petal" and supported with enormous pillars, and there are at least seven districts (though there may actually be more, I'm not sure yet). At the center of the city are immense skyscrapers, with the main central building being by far the largest and tallest thing across the entire continent.

This city would dwarf NYC. Not only that, it has moving parts- this structure larger than the entire island of Manhattan has entire moving districts. The city is said to be able to close like a flower, but that may just be legend...

ANYWAY, this city is lead by a beloved mayor- Miyari! She is a very tall yet friendly being, welcoming to all and promising eternal happiness for all!... Except dragons! Why? Because dragons have sworn to destroy her city, her beautiful city of happiness... Every time a dragon enters, they wreck the place! How could they? So, they must stay out. Buuut... that shouldn't be an issue, as none of us are dragons! How delightful!
