Sandwing - Tumblr Posts

"Why don't you start learning an instrument?" Bamboo asked, her colours shifting into that of a curious green and yellow. She crossed her claws and leaned her head on them, staring up at Dust quizzically. The sandwing shook his head then hunched his shoulder awkwardly, "Don't got the claws for it." "Aww, that's disa-" "Surely you can play the drums." Zenith interjected, "You just tap 'm." the skywing drummed on a nearby bongo. "'s not that difficult." Heaving a sigh, Dust shook his head again, "Can't do rhythm for long- I just get distracted by my own thoughts and that's when I start to mess up."

I love the design, they were super fun to draw!

Deer Blossom! I love deer, so I tried to make a dragon one.

Trying out new brushes too, with the flowers around the edges!

Sure as the setting sun

Can't trust just anyone

————————————

An OC I've had for a while now, that I absolutely adore. While his story is muddled, some themes remain the same.

Betrayal, Brutality, and Beauty.

Finally gave him his own reference sheet. Previously used based for him, but poor boy deserves better.

Wings of Fire!! 🐲🔥

alright it’s been a time, see you all in another two years

take a qibli fanart i made in microsft paint for the road

Some more Dragons from the periodic table. Expect weekly uploads if I have the mental/physical strength to do so!

Not me almost forgetting your daily dose of gay dragons... Anyway, take these queers and have a good day! (This is my favorite batch so far!)

BILL CIPHER AS A (WINGS OF FIRE) DRAGON !!!!

Going back to my roots with this one

he's supposed to be a Sand/Sky/Night tribrid if you're wondering !!

The Pines (in my imagination) would all be rainwings, so you get to guess you added that scar to his face lol

A little wip drawing of my favorite OC, Dust. The image quality isn't the best, but I still felt like sharing it.

Could you draw my mischievous oc meerkat? She's trying her best to be a villain but always fails horribly [pure sandwing btw]

I swear, Meerkat's color palette is so visually pleasing to me. Also, the choice of accessories fit her very nicely.

I wanted to be able to showcase some more of her accessories (especially the golden claws), but couldn't quite figure out how to pose her in a way that would do so without looking off. So, I just did a simple headshot. I hope you enjoy this piece!

Hi, I'm back, I have two potential dragons for you to draw if you like

The first is Diamondback, a Sand/Rain hybrid. He was a part of a crime family when he was younger, but recently, he and his older half-brother faked their deaths and now live in a small town far out of the reaches of their parents influence.

The other is Venom. She's actually an Alter for another OC of mine, she ends up fronting when the body hasn't eaten or drunk anything being a Sandwing Alter she's perfect for the dealing with it.

Also, if you would like, I would love to draw any of your WoF OCs, if that's all cool.

Here they are!

Finally got to doing these guys. The color combos are very nice. I absolutely love the concepts for both of them.

Also, you are completely welcome to draw my OCs! Here's a couple of placeholder references I have for a few of them (As I haven't really gotten around to drawing my own refs for them):

First is Dust, my main OC. He's a Sandwing/Nightwing hybrid with a pretty complicated childhood. He now lives as a traveler, roaming between the kingdoms. He's a sassy little guy that finds joy in collecting unique insults. (Also, the thing around his neck is a leather hood of sorts. In this ref, it's just down)

Here's Zenith, another hybrid of mine (Nightwing/Skywing). She is an armorer in the Sky kingdom who makes custom armor for her brother (a sort of gladiator by the name of Mercury).

And here's Olive, a Rainwing and a comfort character of mine. She's an herbalist's apprentice who also runs a tea shop. She doesn't have much of a notable story, but only because she has a pretty normal life lol.

You're welcome to draw any of these, if you feel like it!

Don't you love staying up until 4:00 am drawing a character ref after a sudden and unexplainable bout of motivation?

Anyways, I now have an actual reference for my boy, Dust! I'm so proud of myself. 😌

I think ur oc dust is awesome and I wanna see more :3

When I tell you I audibly gasped upon seeing this show up. I spent a good minute or two just being giddy and giggling as quietly as I possibly could (it's about 3:00 a.m. as I'm writing this). Seriously, thank you for this, anon.

That being said, here's my boy showing a bit more of a serious side compared to his usual demeanor! There's also a cut for a very short ramble of info on him and his creation, if you wish to read!

Dust is actually the first OC of mine that I ended up keeping! Before his creation, I tended to just make up characters and character designs out of boredom. But then, Dust just stuck with me. Nowadays, I'm trying to coherently build my own WOF universe to house my OCs and all of their stories.

Despite technically being my oldest OC, I haven't really come up with a backstory for him. I have a concept for him; a personality, a design, a situation(?); but I can't, for the life of me, figure out how I want him to end up in this position I have put him in.

So what do you have on Dust already?

The obvious spot in canon for a sandwing/nightwing hybrid is Thorn having more than one egg, so Sunny could have a sibling. Dune getting told she’d had one and being shown it and Six Ckaws the same and getting shown Dust’s egg in a separate location, as Thorn was being extra careful, would be a straightforward way to write in an origin point? There’s also the opportunity to easily justify Dust being an animus with an animus father that way too if it’s what you’re going for! Dust would then have a way to feasibly gain skills and contacts/companions if you wanted Dust to subsequently travel somewhere etc and not be a soldier in the succession crisis.

There’s no pressure with the above paragraph but I thought I may as well attempt to be helpful as design wise it looks like his mother was a sandwing (since there’s the whole hybrids taking heavily after the parent who laid them thing). Who knows it may be entirely off base but that’s why I’m curious if there is anything you have so far?

(also Dust with a sibling or parent, whoever you think they may be, or just a small hatchling dust, could be adorable if you wanted to make a drawing from this)

At your request, here's baby Dust taking a nap! (absolutely love how this turned out)

While that is indeed an interesting idea (seriously, I would love something like that), all of my OCs exist in a separate universe from the canon plots. This essentially means that none of the canon characters, past or present, exist in this universe. For example, in the universe I have created for my OCs, instead of Clearsight being the common ancestor for Hivewings, it is instead a group of Pyrrhian dragons (mostly Nightwings with a couple of others sprinkled in) that found Pantala. This "alternate universe" gives me more freedom to mold the story and world as much as I like.

And, to answer your question on what I have so far for Dust and his background. Dust is the child of Rattlesnake (Mother, Sandwing) and Sandstorm (Father, Nightwing/Sandwing hybrid). He is mostly Sandwing, which is why he doesn't really have much Nightwing traits beyond some darker coloring, his bright blue irises, and the star scales on his wings. As for backstory and such, all I know for sure is that, for some reason I haven't decided yet, Dust despises his mother. I also know that he is currently a traveler, wandering between the kingdoms of Pyrrhia and doing odd jobs to make ends meet.

I think dust deserves a sweet treat

He found a prickly pear :]

I didn't really feel like breaking the trend of these requests being headshots, so I didn't. I think it turned out pretty well, anyway.

Just posting a little piece I did with some experimental coloring. Featuring Dust displaying his wing

Biblically Accurate Dust jumpscare

Drawing any more of him would have been absolute torture, so this is it for now. Might end up doing a full drawing in this art style eventually, though...

Old art time >:> Did I upload it here just for the sake of it ? Yes. Yes I did
