Dragon Share

@dustyfluorescent

Alma is amazing! I love the autumnal look for them, and the use of the kelpie mane. What a lucky and lovely double. :D

@FoggyDownpour

Namasur is a great example of why stained is such a perfect gene, I love how meltingly warm the garnet stained makes them, and how well it matches the supplicant set!

@TheGoldDragon

Pwyll is a beeaaaautiful Nature dragon, I love how ethereal he is, and how well the maroon and olive work together. He matches his lore very well.

@Vergil

Arlathan is so gorgeous, I absolutely love the bright sanguine flair overlaid with that amazing skin, it was certainly made for them. If I was an artist, this is the kind of dragon I would be inspired on a whim to draw. xD

@Tuberose

Wisteria is so stunning, and perfectly matches her name. Her art is adorable, and she just looks so lovely and remarkable. All the little bits in her bio give her so muhch life.

@Lyko

I originally gave Saro a like for how well that skin works on them, especially with the hood of the warden's garb. That tidbit of lore is such a draw in as well, and I would certainly be curious to know more!

@Mypilot @Lyko

Just an amusing aside. I am frequently called Saro by friends or just anyone looking to shorten my name. So it took several times of me looking up posts like what? before I remembered/reread Lyko's blurb on Saro the dragon and had my oooooh moment lol.

@Saronai

What I wrote without the context of a dragon is quite eerie indeed! lol I would give you a like too if I was allowed. :D

@Saronai
Y'know, I noticed that you shared your nickname with one of my dragons when I first found this thread! I had thought "man I hope there's a theme where I can share Saro - maybe they could be buddies!" So i'm glad I was able to post him for this week's contest c:

@Mypilot
Oh boy I sure would love to have Saro's lore all written out in his bio. Unfortunately I only ever have the motivation to type up small blurbs about it on forums. The task of eloquently writing out all of my dragon's lore bios is daunting to say the least...so I have been procrastinating it. Hopefully it'll end up on here! ...Eventually ^^'

@Mypilot lol I just assumed you were saying Lyko's dragon was wearing the same skin as one of mine you liked previously, but now I'm reading the horror interpretation so...thanks for that lol [emoji=skydancer laughing size=1] @Lyko Saro and I are totally buddies now :D

Also, what a perfect dragon to get primal nature eyes on! They really complete her current look. That accent is simply gorgeous and the chosen apparel goes so well together too. Your description along with her just made me love her even more. Definitely getting the sense of hidden magic and liminal spaces. She deserves every star she’s gotten and more!

YIPPEE! [img]https://c.tenor.com/mJU99ZjtlQsAAAAC/tbh-creature.gif[/img] sent likes to all of the winning dragons! so deserved, they're really pretty!!!

Oh wow! Thank you for the honourable mention! Congratulations to all the winners, your dragons are gorgeous and I've given likes to all of the dragons I hadn't already seen.

Aww, thanks!! Elune was one of my favourite projects to complete, she's so relaxing to look at. Wisteria already had a star from me, and went ahead and gave one to the lovely Siorynthal <3
