While they would disagree, I thought it best to draw Kowari and Kultarr together, since it better illustrates how they work as a unit.  

In any case, Kowari and Kultarr are very special twins. Brothers, born to Tumbleweed of the SandWings and Bastard (of the SandWings). (That's not his name, but that's what the twins like to call him. Because he's a bastard.) Tumbleweed was a dragon who never could see the bad in other dragons. Naïve, trusting, but kind and happy, with stars in her eyes. Her twin sister Sagebrush worked her hardest to keep those stars there. And Tumbleweed fell in love with a dragon they thought would help her to do that. He was kind, and funny, and helpful. They were soldiers in Burn's army, and it seemed that even Burn was affected by their charm, because when it was announced that they had an egg on the way, even the notoriously offensive Burn allowed them and Sagebrush to be stationed at the palace while their egg incubated. Or maybe it was because a SeaWing attack left the stronghold weak and even Burn recognized its need for extra soldiers. Or because Tumbleweed's boyfriend was high-ranking and had sway in the army. Which seems more likely? Either way, the egg was huge and beautiful, and would probably contain twins, just like Tumbleweed and Sagebrush! Tumbleweed was so excited to have two dragonets to dote on! And then the egg hatched, and it all came crashing down. The dragonets... were conjoined twins. It had happened in their family before, with granduncles being conjoined at the tail, but it had never happened under Burn. And Tumbleweed's boyfriend soon excused himself to go "get food for the dragonet" and Sagebrush saw him flying in the direction of Burn's tower... all it took was Sagebrush saying "Weirdling tower" for Tumbleweed to realize what was going on. Reluctantly, they flew away, running from their lives with the two dragonets.  Time passed. The twins grew up, with minimal health issues thankfully. They bounced around the Kingdom of Sand and even other places in Pyrrhia. They were nearly captured by Burn multiple times, and lost Sagebrush to a squad of MudWings hoping to gain favor from Burn. Tumbleweed was devastated, but the twins don't remember it very well, as they were less than a year old at the time.  Then the war ended, Burn died, and they could return to the tribe. They liked Queen Thorn, and were even offered a spot at Jade Mountain Academy, but they declined. Kowari didn't want to be stared at by weirder dragons than them, Kultarr didn't want to be stuck in Remedial Everything with Kowari, and they both considered themselves individual dragons, which meant having two SandWings in a winglet, which would throw off everything.  So they ended up in Possibility. There they trained to fight and join the army. Kowari would control the feet and tail, while Kultarr would breathe fire and fly. They soon became formidable fighters, despite the usual sibling spats. They even got a new stepfather, a SkyWing named Cinder, who gave them a lot of pointers. They want to become soldiers in Thorn's army someday.

Kowari – Kowari is the diva. He has big emotions and wants everyone to know about it. He has quite the temper, and dislikes mostly everyone, because mostly everyone does a double take and then stares at them with that horrible dumbfounded expression and eww. Kowari wants to rip their faces off. If you're the rare person who doesn't stare at them or otherwise fall on his very large bad side, he will probably fall instantly in love and show off his fun, flirty personality, which will be met with groans and face-palming from his very aro brother, which Kowari thinks is dumb and distracting. Ignore his stupid brother, please, you're too good for his sorry butt anyways. But never agree that Kultarr is dumb and annoying, because Kowari is allowed to insult his brother, but no one else is. Kowari likes food, unlike Kultarr, and often eats for both of them, since they share most of their digestive system. He's a great cook, and his food is the only one Kultarr will even consider eating. Kowari loves to assert his individuality by getting tattoos and piercings, and is the right head.

Kultarr –  Kultarr is much less dramatic than his brother, but he can hold quite the grudge. He's considered the Smart One, which both twins will readily agree with. Don't get on his bad side. Eventually one of his revenge plots will work, and it will result in your  complete and utter humiliation. And don't go begging to Kowari to get him to stop, either, Kowari's favorite pastime is laughing at the victims of Kultarr's schemes.  Kultarr mostly controls the body, though Kowari makes them run around chasing passing air molecules on occasion. He's very good at it, ever since the incident that gave him a gold tooth. He's a picky eater, a light sleeper, and everything a mother dreads, but he has Kowari to make up for it.

Neither of the brothers is especially nice. They always expect other dragons to see the worst of them, and plenty of dragons have. But if you make a friend with even one of them, you have two dragons who'll have your back forever or at least until you cease to be friends.

Other tidbits: - They can both breathe fire, but if they both do it at the same time, it can mess up their throats, so it's usually Kultarr who does it in battle - Kowari will eat anything but fish and mushrooms. Inexplicably, those two things are the rare thing Kultarr likes, so it works out well for them. - They absolutely adore their stepdad Cinder, and help him with his camels, even if Kowari hates getting dirty.

big plans tonight

AuDHD is so funny sometimes like what do you mean my hyperfixations/special interests will last for years on end or possibly forever but they will cycle out every month or two with absolutely no transitional period or warning. like i will think about the same topic every day obsessively for 46 days in a row and on the 47th day with no visible cause adhd brain goes "ok! bored of that now" and autism brain goes "dw i got something queued up for ya" and i blast into full blown obsession on some other topic whose mental file folders haven't opened in 9 months. brain's out here treating hyperfixations like a crop rotation. once the dopamine runs out it cycles in another one but once something's in the rotation it never ever leaves. last summer we brought in one from when i was 11. it's so funny to me but frustrating too bc like. i cannot stress enough my inability to predict or control this. or how completely abrupt and random it can be

EDIT: seems this is more common among ND people than i thought, and probably not limited to AuDHD specifically :] i was just describing my own experiences and didn't expect this post to blow up, so don't take me for an authority, but i'm glad it resonated with so many of y'all

Any tips on how to draw transformers?

It’s not a real tutorial and more like….the way I survive drawing them. Here👍

The english is probably shitty but I believe it’s understandable enough haha

[insertdisc5]

are there any fan works that have made you rethink one of your own characters?

no lol. however allow me to go on a tangent for a minute.

i have been on tumblr for a very long time. i have been in fandoms. i have made my fanworks. ive seen Stuff. so i know how people react to fandoms and characters they love. which is (and i mean this with no judgment! and even love!!!): fans add their own flavor to the characters, sometimes enhancing them, but also, sometimes, making the character. completely. unrecognizable

again, no judgment!!!!! ive done it myself!!! often!!!! all the time!!!! you can search for it here on my tumblr!!!! i've done it and i love doing it!!!! hashtag my blorbo now!!!! HOWEVER. when i was making ISAT, i did not think it would blow up like this. but i am someone who prepares for every eventuality, so i did think ok. well. what if it does blow up like this. and people. make. my little guys. from my heart. my bosom. absolutely. unrecognizable

all this to say that if you're making a project that could become Tumblrized(affectionate), or even any kind of project: i highly recommend writing down what your characters mean to you. why you made them like this. what made you go down this route. why did you make this project in the first place. what does this Mean To You And You Alone. so that if your character becomes Unrecognizable. you can still remember what you put in them first. and people can Tumblrize to their hearts content and you can be happy and the people can be happy and we can all hold hands having a different version of the blorbo in our brains

Watched Night At The Museum again last night and realised; the franchise has owned my entire soul since I was a literal baby, and somehow I've never drawn fanart for it—until now. Its almost that time of year, so it just felt right to draw these two^^

This page isn't really for fanart, but I still wanted to share it on here so it didn't just exist to my eyes only.

Reference used under the cut

If you know the original photographer/people, let me know so I can tag them^^
