Dragon Share

@PeepinBones I adore crystals! I don't have any crystal dragons yet, nor likely any time soon, though I am tempted to make a glass one (using the same genes below). Ooh, you heard of Ulexite? It's also called TV stone because when looked down on from above the crystal formation does weird things with the light. It you place it on some writing and slowly turn it while looking down on it, the writing will become more crisp or more blurry, or may even vanish entirely - it's seriously cool. If I were to make one for that I'd do something like this; [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=74&bodygene=7&breed=12&element=8&eyetype=2&gender=1&tert=85&tertgene=105&winggene=20&wings=131&auth=45b5d8fa3599570824aab6a9057115e13f490e5d&dummyext=prev.png[/img] Moon crystal, orca bee, pearl soap. Personally I'd also pick imperial over coatl because of how more shows through the wings, but your lair is very consistent, so... hehe. My favourite type of crystal though? Ugh that's like asking a mama to pick her favourite child! ... ... Hows about I just talk about another cool type instead? hehe. Dunno if you have these yet, your layer is big and I am dyslexic, heh, but hows about enhydros and golden Enhydros? ^_^ Enhydro crystals have a water pocket (at least one), and if you are lucky you can find one with an air bubble that you can see move, which is also the easiest way to spot them (I have some of those!). Golden enhydros on the other hand have golden oil with tiny black spots. Most enhydros i have seen or heard about are in the quartz family of stones (I have some in quartz and had two in agate but one had a micro fissure from when it was cut and polished so it slowly evaporated :( ) though all the golden enhydros I have seen so far have been quartz. So, here's how I'd do an agate enhydro and a quartz golden enhydro. ^_^ [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=143&bodygene=23&breed=12&element=8&eyetype=2&gender=1&tert=3&tertgene=18&winggene=237&wings=143&auth=66bc895f4d590f095054f8ef7a166f74eb70f476&dummyext=prev.png[/img] ^ Python latte, Malachite latte, ice capsule.

Went with wasp over crystal because it more resembles the pieces I have (small mostly clear but with fault-lines), and it gives black bits which echoes the tiny black spots all my golden enhydroes have.

@PeepinBones The haze thing I added to the TV stone is inspired by the weird thing it does with light when turned, and how easily it shows colours through it when placed on something, though the only stones I've seen so far are themselves pure white, so a white soap might also work. Funnily enough it's structure is very like a version of selenite called satinspar, which is often made into lamps because of how the crystal structure funnels light like fibreoptics (which TV stone also does). Speaking of haze, that immediately put me in mind of moonstone - I saw you have a peach moonstone, but there are many other colours out there if you ever wanted more. Here's how I'd do a grey moonstone, like a couple in my collection; [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=129&bodygene=1&breed=12&element=8&eyetype=2&gender=1&tert=131&tertgene=105&winggene=1&wings=129&auth=2c6c8d906679316fd4a22a55a7b9c0c119b37b2b&dummyext=prev.png[/img] Iridecent, shimmer, soap. Flint, Flint, Orca. Speaking of variations of ones you already have, I spotted labradorite in your lair. Love that stone. Did you know there is a sneaky marketing gimmick in the stone and semiprecious jewellery business (one of many, tbh) that renames white labrodorite "white moonstone" because moonstone sounds more cool and romantic then labradorite? You can tell them apart because moonstone is soft and hazy with a haze that a paler version of it's base colour, often with a silver tint, while labradorite, regular or white, has a vivid colour flash, usually blue but can be any colour, that is very dependent on the direction of light and the angle you are looking at This would be my top pick for making white labradorite ("white moonstone" style).

Cysocolla, malachite, flecks. White, white, cornflower. I also considered glimmer, firebreath and opal for the tirt. (stop me, I could do this all day, I love crystals, hehe)
