Moon !! ๐ i love her sm i cant wait to draw her and Kinkajou being wlw (forever a Moonajou truther)
She is just suuuuper sparkly bc they cant stop fawning over her polished healthy silvery scales hihihi/ the moonflowers are matching with Kinkajou and the bracelet is shared with her friends! btw in my head Moon was a normal size and chubby when she went to the academy, but i like to imagine her growing taller than winter and qibli after ehhehehe
But first they must catch you ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ Prints
Is it alright for others to use your headcanons to draw rainwing ocs? I adore the way yours look i wanna draw my ocs with these headcanons! <3
yes!! that makes me very happy and i love that people are getting inspired bc I LOVE ART AND ARTISTS <33it'd be nice if you credit or tag me somehow if you plan to use a lot of inspiration but also just bc i wanna see what you make!! :33
today i'm dropping in my current dragon self sona (still tweaking her and deciding!) - here's Amourous the rainwing!
hello :> may I ask hoe you draw 3/4 perspective on the face? it's okay if you don't wanna answer since I know you just got an ask like that.
back to your questions! <3 sorry for waiting a bit i like doing these in batches :,3
basically i just use two shapes for the head and one generally where the snout is, try out a lot of poses by placing the snout very high up etc!
my advice is rather the same as with the other one, have fun bc its your art and find inspo in real animals! dont be scared to find shortcuts either. here are two examples i threw together, one is freehanded feat. Sunny! the other is actually using a ref with Winter (he's already based on arctic foxes!)
TURTLE ๐ข๐!! my favourite blorbo
you'll notice his tail and ears are very different to tsunami and my general headcannon for seawings/ i imagine the tribe has countless phenotypes for features like that, as diverse as the marine life surrounding them
RAINWINGS โ!!
very obvious bias for them on my part - we are doing design notes for now, expect countless headcannons on their culture and life etc
-generally based on large parrots and pythons! in a fantasy sense, they are covered in scales that look/act as feather plumage, able to bristle and be moved for display or emote as body language together with their frills! their face looks like a snakes, able to scent heat and taste the air with tounge flicks
-they also have larger longer 'feathering' near the base of their tail that looks like macaw tails which helps them make tight turns when flying. their bird like wings all together make them agile in short bursts, but they do terribly when it comes to distance flying
-they have an elongated front thumb, large hook claws on their wings, and their hind talons look like a bird's for their arboreal lifestyle!
Starflight โฆ
a little scruffy like a scardycat, but considered pretty and fit looking for a nightwing of his era. Starflight was hatched on the brightest night hidden from moonlight, so in my design, while they are visible- his stars, tears and the moons on his wings do not glow like on other nightwings, but are darker!
as a librarian he wears a moonstone chain with beads for each of his friends and always has a wooden tablet as his scroll on hand. i imagine he would wear some kind of wrapping to protect his eyes to light sensitivity post injury, but he doesnt need it all the time.
im not sure how long it's gonna take me to make them digital and post them but i have all my tribe headcannons already planned out in my sketchbook. but for now im gonna try to do more protags!
i just got mobile mode cuz im going on a little trip to see gf<3 and this app is so freaking cute
but i just wanted to say guys i look at ALL your reblogs under my art and YOU MAKE ME SO HAPPY and motivated :')) even if i don't always reply just know im out there giggling and going dilly dally!!!!! ๐ฉท๐ฉท
I LOVE your desings!!! They are so full of personality! But i was wondering, you're the first artist that i know that draws the silver teardrop scales in front of the eyes, and i'd like to know why. Like you think its cooler or you didnt even notice you were doing that? Your moonwatcher is so pretty! Love your art!
THANK YOU SM!! it's just to spice it up a bit for Moon so she can feel a little different basically<3 in my head every readers' tear scales are a little unique and personal to them! kind of like moles?
this is old, but my Darkstalker from 2023 i think (im gonna update the design a little) had two of them for example!
lots of love for all my girlkissers including... me! i wanted to do something themed but bc of my injury im not able to</3
instead, here's some lesbians i drew last year to celebrate! love you๐
