Still trying to flesh out Deck of Phoenix's creatures and magic system. Here's a glass sea dragon! (which is actually a redesign of a subnautica oc species I made in high school) Dragons are one of the many Centauroid families that evolved from Hallucigenia. They mainly sport 6-8 limbs and are heavily tied to their sigils. (think pokemon types.) They adapt much slower to their environments than other Centauroids, causing them to be much more territorial. Hoard keeping is more common among land dwelling species, but not unheard of in sea dwelling ones.

Plain text of the image :

Size : 11.6 meters Diet : Meat Habitat : Deep Sea Magic (Sigils) : Liquid + Movement Glass Dragons are large, water dwelling dragons. They're characterized by their translucent flesh and blood, and a clear layer of skin on the underside of their bodies. They pose low threat to people.

Original design under cut (Plus land based one I made to go with it) [Content Warning for : Eye contact, Unnerving detail.]

I'll get around to redesigning the other one day soon maybe.

30 Days of Art Improvement Challenge

Are you tired of feeling like your art just isn’t improving? Do you want to do a 30-day challenge that’s actually useful? Welcome to 30 Days of Improvement Hell. >:D

I made this because I’ve been feeling super ‘blah’ about my art these days, and I needed something to kick-start myself. Who wants to do this with me!? Start now or whenever you can (now you procrastinators!). Challenge yourself and have fun at the same time!

Tag your posts with #Improvement Hell so everyone can follow along and see each other’s awesome artwork. I may even create a blog and reblog them! :D

What are you waiting for? START!

Self-Portrait - Introduce yourself

Draw a figure using a reference - link to reference

Draw a figure that’s in action, using a reference - link to reference

Draw a part of the human anatomy you have trouble with. x20, with atleast 5 being skeletal/musculature studies.

Draw more figures. Quick gestures and silhouettes. x20, with atleast 10 different body shapes

Let’s have some fun. Design a character from either This or This character generator! Be creative and bring something to life!

Pick the weirdest object in your house/room. Draw it. Shadows and Highlights.

Find 2-3 objects, make a scene with them. Draw it. Bonus points for creativity. Double points for dramatic lighting.

Draw a landscape of a place you’ve never been or drawn.

Draw a BG with 1pt Perspective. Negative points if it’s a railroad or an empty street.

Draw a BG with 2pt Perspective.

Look out a window. Draw what you see. Bonus points for adding something interesting.

Draw an interior setting with the character you designed on Day #6 in it.

BG with either bird’s eye or worm’s eye view.

Halfway there! Draw three 'action’ scenes with different compositions in each. Quick sketches are fine, just make them interesting and understandable! Bonus points if it’s the same scene, but different composition.

Draw a single page comic with 5-7 panels (the story begins and ends on one page). 

Draw an animal you’ve never drawn before. x10  Link references.

Draw a car. Negative points for whining. Hint: Use a perspective grid.

Think of the thing you hate drawing the most. Guess what? Draw it! Negative points for lying to yourself.

Pick an object in your house/room. Now design a character from it, using the shapes, forms, textures, purpose and colors as inspiration. Also link/post the object you used. Negative points for using a humanoid action figure.

Draw a character/object/scene, and shade them using ONLY solid blacks and whites. Bonus points for good use of lights/shadows

Draw a different object/scene/character. Shade using hatching, crosshatcing, and/or pointillism. Bonus points for lights/shadows and textures.

Colors! Pick a color palette, and paint a scene/character/object using only those colors (some blending allowed). Bonus points for good use of lights/shadows.

Draw and color a scene/object/character - no lines allowed! (aka - lineless art). Don’t forget light and shadows!

Draw a scene/character in a style you’ve never drawn before. If emulating an artist, credit+link. Bonus for color style.

Draw a character. Draw 10 emotions/expressions. Bonus points for 'uncommon’ emotions. (i.e. anxiety, guilt, despair, loneliness etc.)

Draw three random shapes using your opposite hand (or your foot). Now design characters from those shapes.

Turn on the tv (or load your illegally downloaded movies). Pick an actor and draw them.

Almost done! Let’s have some fun. Draw some fanart. Bonus points if it’s super obscure and unknown. Make people guess what it’s from.

Last day! Find a drawing you did within the last year. Now draw it again using what you’ve learned! Link it for comparison!

 Look at all that amazing improvement! Congrats!

[Update] There is now a sequel challenge, Draw All The Things!

This is our newest fursona, Penn, made to represent our spite and anger towards our abuser. We've been iding with it more recently due to personal reasons.

It uses It/Its, V/Vr, Xe/Xir, and any evil neo pronouns (also he/him occasionally.) And it is a demon wolf :]

Shaded version/poetry here

RIPPED APART AND LEFT TO DECAY, MY LOVE FOR YOU HAS FADED AWAY. ALWAYS WONDERING DAY AFTER DAY, WHY THE THREADS OF MY MIND HAVE STARTED TO FRAY.
