Raffles & Giveaways

@BottledLightning We still have one unclaimed dragon, and your name came up next. She is yours if you would like her. Just let me know. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=52352201] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/523523/52352201_350.png[/img] [/url]

@Juxta13

I'd love to take her in :)

[center]I was going to wait a while, but it looks like I'm going to need the lair space, so... [center][color=grey][size=5][b]It's time for another[/b][/size] [/color][/center][img]https://i.imgur.com/smQAIOX.png[/img][/center] I have been finding a lot of monochromatic dragons that make me appreciate the subtle shading of some of these gene patterns without the distraction of color. Perhaps you can appreciate them too? [center][color=grey][b]HOW TO ENTER:[/b][/color][/center] To enter the raffle and claim one of these beauties, just share something black and white (and grey) that you really like - a photo, some writing, an old movie or TV show, a dragon. Posts must be made by the end of the day (FR time) on Wednesday, July 10th. Winners will be selected the following day and will get their choice of dragon in the order they are drawn. My only [i]request[/i] is that you don't enter with the intention to immediately exalt/sell the dragon. Good luck!

The old black and white movie paper moon!! It’s about a young girl and man who become con artists together pretending to sell bibles. I haven’t seen it in a long time but I watched it in a film class in middle school and loved it a lot!!! It’s pretty funny and has some really iconic scenes and awesome film making :)

OOH. Monochrome dragons?! I love monochrome dragons. Here's some of my favourites from my "Favourites" tab (I'm not very original): [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=48673072] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/486731/48673072_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=44821133] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/448212/44821133_350.png[/img] [/url] [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=51510771] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/515108/51510771_350.png[/img] [/url]

Have fun folks! I'd enter if I could, but I guess I'm not here tomorrow. XD

As a mini tradition, my dad and I like to watch the 1938 christmas carol every christmas (which is in black and white), so it's kind of special to me now.

This beauty is my almost monochrome dragon: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=46535205] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/465353/46535205_350.png[/img] [/url]

Well, here’s my obvious choice: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=52209845] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/522099/52209845_350.png[/img] [/url] I’d also like to include black & white photography; there are so many greats that it is hard to choose. For the same reasons you stated about looking at the dragon genes without the distraction of color. Line, texture, & composition all get their say. Color is definitely eye candy. I think the “ghost” gene always shows best in a white or off-white against deep black. So classic. (I also remember seeing a spiral dragon with ghost in b&w and the tail looked like piano keys — brilliant!)
