I have to agree with Sootfeather. They may not fit for WoF dragons, but it's still some darn good art.

I actually really like them individually, but they don't fit at all for the canon characters. Not good as a Wings of Fire cover, but the art is still great.

They aren't the worst, but what I think the artist could improve on making the eyes looking less cartoony.

*screams in rage about uk covers*
Don't get me wrong, they're good art, but they don't fit WOF. At all. Period.

On hiatus, again--might come on here to see how things are doing but that's all.

Also what do you think of the UK covers? If you don't know what they look like, I'll give you some photos of them.

I honestly hate them. Why couldn't they just use the US covers? I doubt the artist even bothered looking at the offical designs of the dragonets. Why does Clay looks like a brown IceWing? Tsunami look..... I cannot describe it. And WHY THE HECK IS GLORY BREATHING FIRE?!

All of these remind me uncannily well of the Red Dragon from Magiquest (look it up if you don't know what it is), with the exception of the cartoon eyes that throw literally everything off.

Just casually sliding in but..
Yeah, the UK versions are... bad. Ignoring the inaccurate designs, they look like bad CGI, the effects are terrible, the lighting/shading is all sorts of messed up, and the eyes don't match the rest of the style at all. (In all honesty though, I find it a little funny that Glory looks a bit like a xenomorph.)
I said ignoring the inaccurate designs, because then we have the German covers. While they are still pretty inaccurate, they also look SIGNIFICANTLY better than the UK ones!

I actually thought the dragon on The Dark Secret was an IceWing for the longest time

Honestly I think the best looking uk cover is the Dragonets of destiny one.
It looks really cool, but as others have mentioned they don't really fit with'
WoF.
I think the german covers are really cool!
I like the mudwing designs! they kind of
look like something you'd fight in a rpg or something.
the night wings look pretty nice too.

A whole lot late on the animus power enchantment talk, I would enchant my glasses to be able to highlight items I am searching for. Kind of how eagle vision works in the Assassin Creed games. Finding Lego pieces is a pain when you got a lot of them to shuffle through.
