The Irresistible Urge To Make Characters Gay No Matter What They Are Like In Canon

RAINWINGS ❀!!

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 ✦

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 lovedddddd peril do u have any like general skewing sketches this time? Great work as always 😮🥰

yes!! im still tweaking it a bit to see what i want! basically based on birds of prey, have giant ribs/lungs to help with long flight to huge hights ect.

most of all i imagine they are the only tribe that walks in a six legged sort of way! their wings are sooo big that they walk with their wings' knuckles on the ground hihihih

✰Tsunami rahhh

i struggled so much with the pose but ofc in the end she's ready to fight, she also had beads in her pearls to represent her friends :>

him...

he gets on my nerves so you guys take him 😭 im already looking away and scheming my whiteout design ihiihihhi. like i said im prioritizing some personal art atm so sorry for slowing down a bit!

almost forgot - his pupils are supposed to look like an hourglass ehehehe

PERIL 🔥 !! i finally found a design for her i like yayyyy!!

she is constantly steaming and glowing around her core bc of the fire in her. in my design, the gradient is dark around her whole face and down her neck bc she is actually charred from the heat! the skywings are based off birds of pray for me, but the fluffed feathers on the back of their necks are burned off for peril! she's bald noooo!!

Winterrr

this was such a struggle, i am not an icewing visionary,, but here he is. he has twin braids around his face and eyeliner bc he's a pretty little princess and super annoying.

tommorrow is peril!!

If your reqauest are open could you draw foeslayer please? She’s my favorite character

i will! they aren't open rn just because i wanted to get the protags done but as soon as luna is drawn you can start requesting<33

ill be back real soon with darkstalker next i think, rn im just focusing on some personal art which i've been missing🩷 like her!!!

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!
