#tripwing

They’re called TripWings, they’re a snake based tribe closely related to RainWings who produce a venom from their fangs with psychedelic effects. Royal and noble Trips have hoods, but most of the tribe does not.

Because they’re closely related to RainWings, they also mostly possess very bright and colourful scale patterns like tropical snakes, although some come in duller tones

Here’s their current Queen, Regalis, and her husband Copperhead. I love Regalis a LOT, I used to doodle her all the time when I was a kid

Expect to see more of them I’m very trip brained at the moment

if you would like to make your own I have an f2u base for them on my ko-fi

These guys are so cool, as a snake enthusiast I find these guys rad as hell!! (Tribe by @aeg3an!!)

This is Diamondback! His dull colouration comes from his more desert environment & overall genetics. He specializes in body-mods, ranging from piercings to tattoos and takes pride in his line of work. Having worked with various clients from all around Pyrrhia to bring their designs & stories to life.

He has a wife who I have yet to draw, for now more info can be found on his toyhouse! — ☆ ┊ Diamondback on Toyhouse

@b0ngbreaker I like your Trip :] (sorry if you don’t like pings)

I had a 7 hour flight yesterday and had the time to doodle my other old fantribes, so PrayWings next!

They’re the descendants of BeetleWing/LeafWing hybrids, and are based off praying mantises

Once I’m more certain on how I want them to look I’ll make a f2u base for them like I did for my TripWings

(The above art is of Princess Lotus)

Their front “arms” are an adaptation of BeetleWings’ smaller secondary wings, rotated to the front and spiked to serve as graspers

Here are all 4 of the tribes I currently have planned

(If you’re deep in the Aegean lore you might recognise the bottom left one as the fantribe my original sona was from)

((I’ll probably be working more on them next))

How much do their hoods emote?

Is the eye pattern on the wings common or a noble thing?

Can their tails rattle?

Do they live on a fan continent or island, or somewhere hidden on Pyhrria/Pantala?

They shoot venom, but can it be injected through bite?

Can they colorshift at all?

Are they immune to their own venom? Or is it family-cancelled like Rainwings?

Their hoods move to some extent, though not very much. But if someone wants to draw their’s with a very flexible hood to display emotions that’s alright too, I just never pictured it that way.

It’s just something I thought would be cool for that particular design.

Yes! They use their tail rattles for intimidation.

I’m pretty sure I did have a continent for my fantribes when I was younger, but I’m not going to expand on that properly until I’ve reworked the rest of them. As for the TripWings that are located in Pyrrhia, they live along the south coast between the Sand and Rain kingdoms.

They inject their venom yeah, they aren’t capable of spraying it the way RainWings do.

Some can, though no more than a few hues. It’s purely for emotional displays, and serves no useful function.

These guys are so awesome btw! Can't get enough!

Booking a room online is now a more of a personality quiz. Would you like extra towels? A feather-free room? A room away from the elevator? (See Marriot.com for more.) You could always call reception for extra towels or a spa appointment or a late check-out, but now you can do it all before you enter your Visa. It’s good news for travelers.

At Virgin Hotels in Chicago, they even offer a check-in manicure upgrade. (It seems guests’ nails are as well appointed as the chambers.) So what's next?

Aura adjustments, Porsche rentals, and even your own wingman are already trending.  

While you might not book based on manicures alone, amenities can help sweeten the deal. According to TripAdvisor’s 2015 Trip Barometer Report, which measures traveler sentiments and emerging hospitality trends, 77% of travelers say any conveniences are influential during the decision process. No wonder there are almost 2,000 Instagram photos tagged #HotelAmenities.
