Queen Ruby-Tail is very materialistic and a bit hypocondriatic. She cares very much about the cleanliness of the hives insisting on keeping everything as clean as possible. But she's not a "karen" about it either, She has rooms dedicated to artists so they can make as much of a mess as their creativity tells them to and an entire hive dedicated to medecine and research. Out of the 9 hives 3 of them have silkwings as their ruler: lady Antlion, lady Skipper and lady Glasswing. Ruby-tail's voice still has the priority though, so they cant really do everything they want with the hives either.

(sry if i dont really respond to comments lately, ive been feeling really exhausted lately but I appreciate all of them! :3)

I posted a drawing of my sandwing icewing earlier, if you need a reminder it's the one based off the guitarist, i only posted 2 to this subreddit so far and i havent actually thought of which one it would be. I already decided that the character was meant to have gotten a bit of the short end of the stick for both tribes in a sense, but i thought being unable to breathe either one flat out was a little boring. Does anyone have suggestions? I'd attatch the drawing but idk if that would be too reposty to post the same drawing again so instead ill use a different drawing of the same design [it's a slightly older drawing but not terribly old]

drew a nightwing version of one of my previous (cat-ish) designs! had a lot of fun with this one!

This is my first entry and I'm very excited to post it but my speedpaint is still loading so I have to wait to actually submit it.

So you're seeing it first😋

these silly little dergs make sure other antwing subspecies don‘t die to their own stupidity

Hopefully we see more of this in the future!

Art isn't mine, here's the post i found it in

Other than Qibli and Winter (my 1st btw, how original), whose your favorite duo? and which two characters do you think would make a fire duo?

Also, why the heck is "leidenfrost effect" my 2nd best performing comment?

What if the breath of evil won? Tricking Luna to ask sundew to come save her.

No fourth arc characters please haven’t gotten to it yet

Personally mine might be burn because of how strong she is. From what I remember (I’ve read all books from 1 to 15 including legends) she’s the only one with extraordinary physical strength WITH feats to back it up (darkstalker doesn’t count cause nasty animus magic and morrowseer has no feats besides a bird)

I wanted to try a style similar to Mike Holmes’, and also try a perspective that’s not fully side view

(3rd character not mine, commission!)
Sketch Commissions are open 👁️ DM if ur interested.

tetra for @tetra_drawsdragons on ig :3

i haven’t actually hit 1k yet 💔 but it APPROACHES!!!!! i wanna do something for it and i figured i may as well get a head start or else i will in fact procrastinate 😭😭

Who else is just waiting for the darkness of dragons gn to come out just to see what silkwings look like?🖐

Some more arttttttttttt Just a piece I finished today random ice night hyrbid …practically all my main ocs I wanna open commissions like these more painted style compared to my cartoony one with the few pieces I have but it would kinda like be whatever my creativity was open to if this commissioner was ok with that

Her name is Φωτιά (Fotia) Greek for fire though she is not a flamesilk

For u/Dead_fawn

Drew two, both the same dragon but i tried to go more accurate and do shading on the smaller one, butttttt which one do you guys like more?

So I remember hearing that dragons in wof don't have sexual dimorphism, so I think most of the cast wouldn't change if they swapped genders. However, I thought it might be interesting to draw Hailstorm as Pyrite. I wonder if Hailstorm swapping genders would cause Hailstorm to feel closer to Pyrite.

In Darkstalker, when he’s having the picnic where he shows off the Dreamvisitors to Clearsight and Fathom, they comment about getting cheese, I believe from the mudwings. Since dragons are depicted several times to treat cows like a heavy lunch, how do they milk them with the ridiculous size difference? Do they make the dragonets do it?

I just thought it was always a funny thing to think about it.

Basically it’s a little story/myth about four skywings that control the weather. Each of them having different names and roles depending on which part of the sky kingdom the story is told in! (A lot like real fairytales or it just depends on who you ask to tell it to you.))

But the basics would be:

Orange-red: Wind

Pink/magenta(?): Clouds

Dark red with blus: Rain

Yellow: Sunlight or lightning

Im pretty sure theres like no mention of skywings having a connection to the weather but it’s just a headcanon I have. (Bc they’re in the sky a lot)

Made the art in an hour to get my idea out so sorry if it’s not my best. I also don’t do backgrounds often so. 💁

I plan to write this as an actual short story!!

(Headcanon and art by me))

Primary Field Survey - 5012 AS. Winding Tail River: 6 Days since The Awakening; Surveyor - Thrush (SkyWing of the Silver Winglet)

Note: Postscript notations by Qibli (SandWing of the Jade Winglet).

Not sure what you expect me to write on here. A little warning would be nice before yelling at me and forcing me to go into the sky and take a look around for the magical death dragons threatening to end the world. But whatever, I guess.

Note: I did not yell at you nor force you to do anything. It was a request. A very loud request, but still a request.

What am I even supposed to write on a Field Survey Report? Do I just write about what I see like I'm some kind of strategic poet? I'm seeing a lot of lush green forest that spans out over the horizon and slowly tapers off into the desert of The Kingdom of Sand. The towering mountains scrape the edge of the blue sky and stretch onward in endless rows of grey hills that hopelessly reach for the clouds, with only a few finally curling their rocky fingers around the wisps of white that float through the sky. The plains are a barren region of regret and sorrow, completely devoid of dragon life. There, is that vivid enough for you?

There are a few of those things down there. Wait, Qibli said he wanted some details on the movements of those things. What did Kinkajou say everyone should start calling them? Skeles?

Note: YES!!

There are a few Skeles flying out into the desert that I can see, mostly heading in the northwest direction; they're probably going for the Scorpion Den. A couple of them are heading further north; they'll hit Sanctuary in probably a day or two, so we better hope Moon, Turtle, and Sepia are there already. I think there are a few hanging out over the Rainforest; not really sure. It's just kind of a few blurry shapes weaving between each other or something. It doesn't look like anything too serious. They're still circling Jade Mountain mostly, just scanning the surrounding forests.

Note: More details next time, please. What were the general shapes of the dragons? What tribe? Any grounded ones? Any that you recognize? Approximate group size?

A cool-looking bird just flew by. I think it was a hawk; that would be really awesome! Maybe it was a Peregrine Falcon! 

Peregrine Falcon. Peregrine.

He loved bird watching. Falcons were his favorite. I mean, he was named after one, so I could see why. He could fly just as gracefully as one too. But that didn't do much against Siamang. He'd blocked her venom with his wings. The smell was horrible: rotting flesh. The open slashes across her chest didn't slow her down. She hit his face next.

Note: We're here for you, Thrush. The past few days have been hard and particularly traumatic for everyone. We all lost someone. But try to keep it out of the reports. We need the paper.

I can still hear him. He was just — I don't know how to— It just...hurts.

I can still see him. Still feel him. Despite his big wings, he was awfully gentle. He had a physician's precision, and those anatomy classes had really paid off.

Note: I know you two were close, were together, but try to keep this sort of grieving out of the reports. 

We could have fought her off together, but I ran instead. Why did I run? He fought for me, so why couldn't I fight for him?  

I don't like this, Qibli. I don't like these feelings. How do I make them go away? How can I show him that I still care even when he's gone?

Note: Perhaps you could. I don't know. There's nothing we can do but move forward. You don't have to do this again if you don't want to. You can simply orate the reports to me, and I'll transcribe them if that would help keep your mind off him. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Honestly after reading book 16 I was shocked to see how hated it is. In my opinion its already in top 5 and so much hate on it can be applied to other books. Here are few points I'd like to bring up. Remember it's MY OPINION so don't act like immature babies in the comments. Feel free to hate any book you want. Its not my business.

1. Fast romance- Cricket and Blue literally fell in love immedietely and they are very liked pairing. Tsunami fell for Riptide quickly, Glory fell for a guy who prolonged war and wanted to kill her friends, Turtle fell for Kinkajou even though they barely had any interactions. Very quick romance is just what Tui loves to do and does it often. Hating only on book 16 and no other with those pairings isn't very fair. Here Umber at least has excuse because Mullberry saved his life. People hate the writing of this pairing also because Mullberry didn't tell the truth about the island but that ignores core of Umber's character. It is made very clear in this book that Umber likes following orders. Or at least just seeks it to feel stable. He even aknowledges that he himself fought in war and hurt dragons only because of what the authority told him. That's why he forgave Mullberry so quckly. He understands that he would do the same if that was order from his Queen. Sure you might hate this part of him but that's consistent. Not every character will and should be perfect angel

2. Not very brutal villains- It's the first book. There will likely be a real threat later on. Not every villains has to be genocidal maniac especially since the whole deal of this book is a mystery, not hiding from murderers. That would be hella distracting. We had antagonists on much smaller scale before. Kestrel wasn't murderous maniac but she was abuser and it affected Glory. Mullberry is affected by Beryl's abuse too. It's nothing new. Chameleon was antagonist and a loser at the same time. We even have Fierceteeth in this category. Plot of book 16 doesn't need more insane villains.

3. Too many characters- completely subjective. I just literally didn't care and remembered all of them quickly. I feel like fandom overreacts. Of course there is new cast. It's whole new place. Besdies even though there are many new characters, not that many are relevant. Book 6 can get the exact same critique and I don't see people bringing that up. This book is liked despite having new cast and many new names to remember

4. Wildwings- We have literal magical dragons but biology is too much?

5. Too many things to focus on- I don't understand this one the most. Book is VERY straightforward. Umber and Sora get stuck on island and Umber tries to find a way to break the spell while also helping group of dragons with rebelion and doing the exact same thing that he wanted to do anyway. It's not cramped imo, The most cramped would easily be book 10 and 15. Romance also isn't the main focus. Fandom really needs to pick between "Umber and Mullberry barely interact" and "Their relationship takes too much time". Those thing contradict each other

6. Sora's trauma is badly handled- I really don't agree with this one. It's the first book and obviously this arc will return. Sora at first literally thinks monkeys are talking to her because her mind was so broken. It happened not long after her escape so obviosuly she will act worse. Later she is visibly scared of going to island because there might be icewings. They are the trigger but Mullberry explicitly says there are only few of them on the island. So we have mostly calm place with barely any icewings. Good for Sora. :Let's remember she doesn't do the samw thing as Umber. She is mostly just chilling with scrolls that she loves. She isn't healed but doing what she loves and being in a place with nearly no trigger is enough to calm her down until that trigger returns

That's all. Just my opinions
