*drops this here and leaves*
I've been calling it "Brilliant Armour" or something like that in my head, but honestly I'm just happy that I finished it in time.

"Sunrise Operetta"
No textures, just tons of different brushes and too many layers.

Here's my entry and first accent! It's based vaguely off of the human festival of Diwali, the Indian light festival. I know its not strictly based off of FR lore, but I'm hoping it'll be alright!

Here's a preview on one of my friends' dragons, since I don't actually have any female guardians.

This is my first time making a skin (the process really helped me figure out how to use the basics of Photoshop too). I hope you like it! :)

Based on lightning bugs, and the iridescent shimmer of light refracting off of insect wings. They always have reminded me of little stained glass windows, or prisms!

" Midnight Lantern "
I call this midnight lantern, because the color and light under her wings, the circles and the soft light coming from them, reminded me of lanterns, the ones you would see at festivals or small local events, (movies) to light up path ways and give it a warm calm feeling to the atmosphere. I recently saw the maleficent movie, and the soft blues, pinks and oranges lighting was beautiful in one of the scenes--- it was captivating almost and I wanted to give this skin a fantasy feel to it, (magical? XD Maybe)
None the less I had fun with this one, and I made sure I didn't copy anyone (because my last entry favored another's in a scary way so I had to remove it since they posted and came up with the brown and gold idea first), I looked through the entries as carefully as possible. :) hope you guys like this one.
(I hope the colors come out alright, I had to use my imac for this one so the colors look fine on there.)

"Break of Dawn" my second entry
(Not much to say) I made this one, inspired by the colors of a sunrise 'break of dawn'. I tend to be up early every morning so I did my best to match the colors I see in the morning :)
The sign on the back hind leg is half of the moon and half of the sun. The change of light from moon to sun.
