These dragons aren't mine, but the dragons of customers who'd like some feedback on their beautiful babies! [font=century gothic][size=7][color=red][b]please do not post in this thread![/b][/color][/size][/font] Instead, please send additional compliments/critiques to the dragon owners themselves! ^^ Every review is written with quality in mind, so if you want, [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/ibaz/1661048]why not buy a review of your own?[/url] [br] [quote][center][font=century gothic][size=7][color=purple]post formats[/color][/size][/font] Because dragon appearances change and FR updates dragon images to reflect that, I've made sure that no matter when you read my reviews, you can always look to see what apparel / accents I was commenting on. If you click on a dragon's [i]name[/i], you'll get taken to their current profile page. The image of what they looked like on the day I posted their review is static and clicking on it will do nothing. (NOTE: This is true for all reviews after StrkyeSlammerII as I didn't know how to do it properly until then.)

Talk about a total make-over and a [i]super[/i] lucky RNG result from your Scatter Scroll! I personally think her Magenta Facet comes on a little strong, but I'm absolutely in love with the pastel contrast of Banana Iridescent and Seafoam Glimmer.[/size][/columns] Apparel-wise, her Prismatic Silks are certainly eye-catching, and I think they're part of the reason I can let the Magenta slide. Yellow was a great choice for her head bulb color, and the though I usually don't like them, the Pink Woolly Antennae blended in so well that at first, I didn't recognize they were an accessory! Also, just a note, I love the way the tail of the Prismatic Silk Scarf is draped in such a way that her Banana Iridescent and Seafoam Glimmer line up perfectly with the fade from yellow to green. Coincidence? More like fate. [right][size=1]@ELIMGARAK

For some reason, she struck me as soon as I saw her! I think it's because she reminds me of the festivity of Chinese New Year Dragons, which are extremely close to my heart. Gold and dark blue are a great color combination, and her gold jewelry is a nice touch.[/columns] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=3590231] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/35903/3590231_350.png[/img] [/url][nextcol][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]CHAPEL[/b][/font] [size=4]I have to admit, I initially liked Chapel because of his little tagline: "Hold my laces. I have some mauling to do." His soothing neutral colors betray the acts of violence he's always ready to commit, which I think is equally endearing as it is terrifying. (Kudos on the armor, by the way! It suits his color palette super well.)[/columns] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=5658705] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/56588/5658705_350.png[/img] [/url][nextcol][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]MONSOON[/b][/font] [size=4]COATL BOYS ARE MY WEAKNESS AND HERE IS MY ACHILLES' HEEL.

HE MAKES CLOWN WORK. That deserves an award in of itself.[/columns] [br] ----- [br] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]STATE[/b][/font] [size=4]I think State has a great clan-related role, but his accent just doesn't do it for me. I don't like the pattern, nor do I like the way it covers his face. I guess if I stared at it long enough, it would grow on me? But based on a first impression, I'd say he'd look better natural.[nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=6410305] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/64104/6410305_350.png[/img] [/url][/columns] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]SOUTHERN[/b][/font] [size=4]To me, this looks more like a wilderness dragon than a printmaker. That being said, I also think that his apparel makes him look extremely busy in the sense that so much is going on. I think he needs a Brown Wolf Pelt instead of a Red one, and I don't particularly like the flourish jewelry. Too much, imo. (Beautiful accent, though!)[nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=10131765] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/101318/10131765_350.png[/img] [/url][/columns] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]SUNSPOT[/b][/font] [size=4]I feel sad that Sunspot and her mate, Birch, don't get to spend more time together. And though I like the color-matching with her apparel, I'm not sold on her accent. I know it's a festival accent, and I can see how the spots kind of live up to her name, but I feel like there are much better accents out there that won't look so awkward on her wings.[nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=5760196] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/57602/5760196_350.png[/img] [/url][/columns] [right][size=1]@AMMOTH

His accent blends so well with his wings that I'm almost jealous! It's like he has nebulae in his feathers. He has this sort of lofty appearance that fits perfectly with the personality in his bio. Perfect baby with a trashy personality. I love him. [size=1][s]When are you auctioning him off? I'll put down a starting bid ahaha[/s][/size][/columns] [columns][size=4][b]PEONY[/b] - Despite his accent being part of the Plague festival set, I think it sort of works. It's a little too bright and fluorescent to really pass as the leaves that I want to see against his bark-colored primary. People usually give up when they get thrown a curveball like pink gembond, but the spring breeze and flowers somehow pull it all together. Kudos![/size][nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=53634&tab=dragon&did=5688360][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/56884/5688360.png?mtime=VlUS-AAAULo.png[/img][/url][/columns] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=53634&tab=dragon&did=12336434][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/123365/12336434.png?mtime=VdfEVwAAXKs.png[/img][/url][nextcol][size=4][b]LISA[/b] - LISA was the prettiest of Irwin's trio. I like the almost polyamorous vibes I got from them, and I was incredibly curious about why both LISA and SKYLER have multiple names like SAM and ASASU, but I guess there's a bigger story behind those. LISA herself is just gorgeous, though. She really does look like a robot, especially with those genes and accent. [/size][/columns] [columns][size=4][b]AVENTURINE[/b] - Though he's not necessarily as eye-catchy or dressed up as your progen Aquamarine, just... God. His bio really got to me. I just want to wrap him up in a big hug and tell him everything's going to be okay. It's so sad that he and Opal can't get along and he's so gentle with her. Just. Take my feelings and put them in a blender. Thanks.[/size][nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=53634&tab=dragon&did=5815183][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/58152/5815183.png?mtime=Vf3ERQAAVvw.png[/img][/url][/columns] [columns][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?p=lair&id=53634&tab=dragon&did=5940067][img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/avatars/59401/5940067.png?mtime=VaU8XQAAUVU.png[/img][/url][nextcol][size=4][b]MAGNIFICENCE[/b] - She genuinely lives up to her name. Not only is she triple royal, but her gembond offsets her amethyst flourish jewelry perfectly. Her Amethyst Gems accent just takes the decorations one step further-- I could do without that glaring flare on her neck, but given that it can't be changed, I'm still awfully pleased with how she looks.[/size][/columns] ----- [center][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=3676630] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/36767/3676630_350.png[/img] [/url] [font=century gothic][size=5][b]CELESTE[/b][/size][/font] I think you can understand why I picked Celeste as the Crown Jewel of your lair. First of all, the opening line of her bio is hilarious. "That's one big celestial antelope." Not only that, but her familiar is a Celestial Antelope, and I [i]love[/i] when familiars and dragons match. At first I thought that she was some kind of high priestess because of the silks, bangles, and the solar blades, but I love her lore too much to describe. I debated heavily between Celeste and Contesllation for the Crown Jewel of your lair, but I figured that since there are more hours in the day than the night, Celeste would be a much stronger presence in your clan's lore and therefore more prominent. (Not only that, but honestly her Carmine Circuit and Banana Shimmer somehow work together at the edges of her wings, which in turn reflects the fade of the Celestial Antelope's hide, and I really don't understand how a correlation that perfect can exist on this site.) I think that she has just the right amount of apparel on her. The bangles on her wrists and ankles are nice touches, as are the arm silks, the sash, and the glowing clawtips. I personally feel that her wings and face are a little busy, though; she could lose the bird/herb or the veil, but I think the horns should absolutely stay. She really is a great addition to your lair both in appearance and lore, so please PLEASE don't give her away. (Or if you do, give her to me. <3) [right][size=1]@CHOCOLI

[size=5][font=century gothic][color=purple]AOASHIRA[/color] THE CROWN JEWELS: [url=http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/67173/6717256_350.png?mtime=VW8EAQAC7iU][color=#b0734f]TOMI[/url] | [url=http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/145850/14584927_350.png?mtime=Vku_FAACaxw][color=#b0734f]ABADDON[/url][/size] [center][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=6717256] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/67173/6717256_350.png[/img] [/url] [b][size=4][font=century gothic]TOMI[/font][/b] Everything about Tomi screams "springtime", a theme I can definitely get behind. Her accent looks too much like a watermark to me, but you managed to balance the colors with the tail feathers and the buttercup bows. I think the Naturalist Adornments were a great addition both visually and description-wise; they definitely help her fit the role as clan witch and necrobotanist. I thought she was going to be a druid before I scrolled down to see what you'd written, and to my delight, I was almost right! I'm honestly not 100% sold on the tail feathers, though. The bows sort of interrupt the art style already, but the feathers looks like an awkward mop on the end of Tomi's tail. I would recommend finding other pink things to balance against the accent, but overall I think that Tomi is a fantastic addition to your lair both in appearance and lore. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=14584927] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/145850/14584927_350.png[/img] [/url] [b][font=century gothic][size=4]ABADDON[/font][/b] I seriously have a thing for Coatls, and this boy is beautiful. I love the way his chocolate wings blend into his shoudler ruffle before the Contrast Rogue set gives him a monochrome look. I'm incredibly impressed that you managed to make a standard Coli accent look so good! I think that the falling leaves are a great touch and make Abaddon's foreground just busy enough to help blend the transition from brown to faded pink to white and black. It's an amazing combination of apparel, accent, and secondary-- huge kudos to you for making the rogue apparel work! Personality-wise, I think Abaddon is too cute for words. Oblivious tsundere-types like him are perfect for a hopeless romantic like me, and I honestly want nothing more than to find him a mate and write them an adorable fanfiction. Abaddon gets great marks all across the board-- "save the best for last", especially in your lair, right?

She's got the accent, the leaves, the sword, the cape, the tatters... Her flank looks really messy for some reason, which works with her whole "battered loner" kind of vibe, but I'm not super pleased with how distracting her apparel is.[nextcol][url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=7850166] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/78502/7850166_350.png[/img] [/url][/columns] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]FREYJA[/b][/font] [size=4]Same problem as Mosaic: there's WAY too much happening. The contrast of the red and white looks very cool but the amount of apparel she has makes it hard to look at.

The Silver Crystal is a great eye-catcher, and the Aqua Toxin makes for a great combination! I love the accent you paired with him, it's subtle and looks totally natural thanks to the Autumnal Wreath, Gold Necklace, and River Royalist Cuffs to emphasize gold as an accent color. If only he had Gold as a tert, he really would have looked nice with Spines. (And that's saying something, since I usually don't like spines.) I think that the silks are a nice touch, but I so so so wish they were more blue and less green. I think that the Sky Blue silk set might be [i]too[/i] blue, but it would never hurt to try! Overall I have to say that I love what you've done with him, and I think he's earned his slot as the third dragon in your lair. (Also, don't tell his mate, but I think he's the more beautiful of the pair...)

But I also picked him because, again, you found a three-color scheme that really works on this dragon! Grey, black, and tangerine-- an odd combination, sure, but the Cherub and Seraph goes together so well here that I'm tempted to get one myself. I like that his Tangerine Glimmer goes nicely with the Kindling King accent-- I haven't really seen any dragons that make it work as well as he does. I personally think he could lose the greaves, but the scarf is a nice touch to the ensemble. Maybe I'm not supposed to mention art, but I do quite like the gijinka sketches you've got in his bio. (For such a serious guy, though, I wonder how he got his name.) [br] ----- [br] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/a7wuZ72.png[/img] [size=5][font=century gothic][b]SLAPCHOP[/b][/font][/size] No comment on the name this time, but I love this girl's colors. She's not quite pastel, but she's not quite vibrant either, and I like the peachy contrast between her White primary and her Coral tert. I didn't realize her primary was basic at first, but I don't think you should change that. She looks gorgeous as it is. Something about that little triangle on her wings that itsn't covered in Toxin irks me, but if I don't examine it too carefully, I'm still happy with the way the Toxin makes her interesting to look at. I'm torn between wanting to give her more things and keeping her all-natural. I don't know of any F Noct skins or accents that would highlight her traits, nor can I envision her with any apparel (since she's already so pretty.) Maybe the Star Collector accent from the 2015 Arcane festival might look good? (But if it's too pink, forget it; she's fine just the way she is.) [br] [right][size=1]@ZEUSHATCHES

Though the teardrop jewelry isn't really noticeable at first, I really like the wing loops and the way they fill the blank space in her wings. Having Crystal as her primary was a great choice, especially since it glints a magenta color that's matched by her Shimmer secondary near the base of her tail. And I'm so pleased that her familiar matches her colors-- I'm a sucker for stuff like that. I would discourage you from adding any red apparel to her as being a Crimson triple handles that already. Some Golden Silks might look nice (you could replace the wing loops with wing silks) but a full set would probably be too much. [br] ----- [br] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/0c22wi8.png[/img] [size=5][font=century gothic][b]DARIUS[/b][/font][/size] People rag on crackle all the time but I think it works well on this boy. I like the way that his Fire Iridescent fades into the brownish orange on his hind legs while also melting into his wings to make a much faster shift into the Rust Shimmer. The Banana Crackle almost serves as a buffer between the two, complimenting and separating the colors at the same time. The flowerfall is the perfect muted yellow color to go with his tert, and the silks help amplify his natural Skydancer elegance. I think Gold Wings Silks on this boy would be overkill, so save them for Zea, but I could live with something interesting around the lower half of his torso (just under his front limbs). [br] ----- [br] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/MKY8bPU.png[/img] [size=5][font=century gothic][b]FRIGID[/b][/font][/size] I love the Ice aesthetic, and I love Coatl boys. Behold: Frigid, a dream come true. Some might criticize his tert for standing out too much against his primary and secondary, but I think the Storm Circuit does a great job of making him visually interesting. It makes his wings fade from their Ice Shimmer to a more mellow blue, and the dark color of his paws and feet make it easier to see how he's wearing silks (nice choice on Gossamer, by the way!) The only thing I might change is the silks on his wings, but they help direct attention to his other silks in case they weren't noticed... so I guess I can live with them. You can tell he's an Ice representative with a single glance, but even though it seems busy, and I think the Chillspike Collar and the Winter Wind do a wonderful job of balancing out his blue/white color palette. I saved the best for last because I genuinely think this boy is a precious treasure. Kudos! [br] [right][size=1]@IVY25BB ( PROPS ON THE COLOR-CODED LAIR, TOO! )

Her colors interact with one another in a way that makes a gradient from blue/purple at the center of her wings to black in a near-perfect circle. Obsidian Circuit contrasts nicely, and the night silks make a nice addition to her dark, almost sultry color palette with a different royal blue and silver beads to spice things up. I've gotta mention her bio here, though-- I think her streak of curse-like creationism is an especially interesting lore to have.[/columns] [columns][img]http://i.imgur.com/e0i5DnC.png[/img][nextcol][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]LOVEJOY[/b][/font] [size=4]What a perfect trash baby. Usually I'd have something to say about that Rainbow Flair Scarf and the obnoxious glasses and that Aqua Tail Bow, but his bio explains it all: Hipster Trash. I love how he gives off the air of pretentiousness long before you even get to his description. I think his wings are a little busy, though-- I could do without either the Cloudy Wings or the Wing Silks; one of the two. But overall I think you nailed the awful, uptight part of his personality!

People usually don't have a lot of good things to say about all three of the genes she's wearing, but she definitely them off! I loved the Boneyard Empress accent when I saw it during 2015 RoR but I can't imagine a dragon that'll wear it better than Vromia does. The Bone Chimes are a great addition, not to mention the crown, and though I usually don't like armor, the Summer Swelter, Tail and Arm Wraps, and her coloring somehow brings it all together. All of the kudos to you on this lovely gem![/columns] [br] ----- [br] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]ALICE[/b][/font] [size=4]I like that she has a mask, just like Victor does, but I'm not convinced by that neck ruffle. Of all the apparel she wears, only the white stuff really pops out, leaving her Neck and Leg Bows virtually unnoticeable while the flourish jewelry just looks tacky (sans the Eyepiece; the Eyepiece really works when it's layered under the mask.) I would recommend finding things that will stand out against her genes instead of aligning her with more red; her Blood secondary and tert already do that for her.[nextcol][img]http://i.imgur.com/BzYsrij.png[/img][/columns] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]PUMPKINSPICE[/b][/font] [size=4]I don't know if I'm allowed to criticize Clan Ambassadors (O.o) but I think that Pumpkin here could do without the flourish jewelry. I love how the cape really works with the Chocolate Cherub, and there's a distinct "Autumn" feel coming off this dragon with the antlers and the fluffy tail and the flower crown and the colors and especially Autumn Breeze, but the nature-esque vibe is ruined by the clearly artificial flourish stuff.[nextcol][img]http://i.imgur.com/R8txwyI.png[/img][/columns] [columns][center][font=century gothic][size=6][b]HESTIA[/b][/font] [size=4]Ahh, Fire reps. I think that her colors work generally, but the Sunburst Feathered Wings just add weird hair-like feathers onto her back with little to no reward (since the color is so close to her secondary.) The Magmatic Pauldrons also look a little weird on her back, especially since it's just smack in the middle of her shoulderblades (and clearly an apparel item, totally breaking the flow of her art.) I think the Forgetools would be a better use of her lore as Blacksmith as well as a functional replacement for the Pauldrons. The Will 'o the Ember looks great, though![nextcol][img]http://i.imgur.com/MYMPIqx.png[/img][/columns] [right][size=1]@MALWARE
