we got dragons

Hi there, I’m Lily aka @liliumaa this is my wings of fire design blog where I draw a lot of dragons since I’ve been in this fandom since 2014 so why not try to draw them all maybe. I take requests via my ask box! And you can submit fanart of my designs through submissions! 

RULES:

My designs are free to use for MAPs, PMVs, AMVs, edits, whatever! As long as you credit them back to me. You may ask me or just edit them yourself to make them more animation friendly.

Yes!! Finally I'm gonna post her here!

Now this is just a design for a MAP call I'm releasing tomorrow but I love it a lot so I'll probably use it as her actual design for a while!! The first one is her "de-flamed" when she puts on Chameleon's necklace, she is pale, not as pale as Sky but still oddly colored for a skywing. The second design is her back with firescales, she's happy and content with herself. Her feathers are firey, oh and she looks like a unicorn yes (a hint to what the MAP will be based on haha. My current big interest is unicorns and a certain book). But she's also sparkly and glows.

De-Flamed Design

So, me being your local Icewing obsessed nerd, I’m gonna make a lore post about it!

ICEWINGS - draconis glaciesunguis (iceclaw dragon)

Dragonets of this species are covered in a thick coat of fur when they hatch, with only their feet and faces exposed. This is a delicate time, they need to be kept from the harsh cold. After the first few weeks the dragonet will venture out supervised. Finally learning to fly in tiny bursts around 5 months of age, and then fully being able to take off when reaching 7 months to a year. They will keep their fuzzy coat until around age 3. Age 3 is a year where they suddenly get much bigger. They fully shed their original baby fur and will start growing in a pattern that they will keep the rest of their lives. Their fur insulates them and protects their sensitive areas. They also have blubber, only a few inches thick which also keeps them warm. Some Icewings have more fur than others, this doesn’t make too much difference except in the rare cases when an Icewing is left with none. This makes living harder, not impossible, but harsher. Luckily dragonkind does make warm garments to wear!

One famous example of a furless Icewing was the ancient Queen Diamond, she was a rare case of not just losing all her fur after dragonethood, but being born with none. Many hatchlings would die in that case but since she was royalty everything was done to keep her alive. And live she did. She wore lots extravagant outfits to keep warm.

When they are babies their horns are very short much like other dragonets in different tribes. Around age 4-5 horns and spikes start to grow out more. But some Icewings take a while to grow theirs, not properly growing in until age 7-8

Lynx herself looked very “immature” since hers took a while to properly grow in (This is my own explanation for why Snowfall was acting that she was much more mature than Lynx when at most they’re only a few months apart in age, other than Snowfall was much more self-centered in the beginning)

Long horns are prized and praised in the kingdom, they hold pride in it. Icewing horns are also unique in the fact that Icewings shed them once every couple of years, they take at most a month to grow back, and they look rather silly to others when they freshly shed. As a dragon grows older the longer their horns are and the less they fall off. Their long spikes also shed. Horns and spikes are collected used in medicine, art projects, sometimes given to dragonets to teethe on, and more. Some Icewings get carvings on their horns and get new ones every time they grow new ones.

Queen Scarlet herself. Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it

Ruby, this is for an upcoming MAP project! But still is my own personal design for her! Skywings have feathers, so now I can give them cute hairstyles, here’s Ruby rocking a bob cut. 

I have made a masterlist to add to overtime as I draw them! Figured it’s better to start early than later, and please check here if you’re unsure if I’ve drawn a dragon or not!

Indigo! My woman. My girl. She is so special. Deserves everything. She has done nothing wrong ever. She’s so committed to her job and her silly boyfriend. (need to say i was inspired by this seawing armor idea! Mainly just the cloth look!)

Fathom! Now he doesn't have visual scars on him from his trauma like Indigo does, but his eyes are what convey it. I gave him a dark under eye for that tired look, my boy needs some rest. I hope he got to pursue his art career. though fatherhood might've made him a bit too busy for a while haha

New Whiteout design! I’m sure I’ll end up making plenty more of her in the future, she’s just so fun to design! Her design is meant to be opposite visually to Darkstalker’s in many ways, but not completely opposite. Anyways it’s a crime Tui never gave us more stories with her in it

Arctic! Albatross will be soon! Truly a lost man here, wanted to give him a more muted look compared to his kids, as he’s described as scuffed and needing to roll in the snow

Gonna start doing these for fun! And just to answer this question incase it ever comes up! These will host the lore for my designs, whether its biology or a headcanon for a character that I want to talk about!

Now you might see some of my art and go, hm seers aren’t supposed to have teardrop scales! Why? 

A young Darkstalker design! With almost his trademark Darkstalker Red ™, but didnt want to make the bg too distracting. I gave him plenty of his dad’s traits just because we all know that’d piss him off. 

New Clearsight design! I’m still fond of my old green Clearsight, but I think for drawing the Dream Team (darkstalker, fathom, clearsight) having more variety than just two green dragons and a blue one works better for me. So as a call back she has green star markings. Anyways Clearsight is my fave Im her number one fan

Thoughtful! A handsome man but in a cringe fail way, I like him alot actually. I think we as a fandom should make up a story/draw more of him and Whiteout’s life after the events of Darkstalker, they deserve it!!
