More Giant wip

They wear dragon skin as a social indicator to their peers. This one sports the neck-hide of an emerald bombardier

New fella

Had a preview of this on my socials, but as usual you guys get the good stuff lol

Here be giants

At long last I return to the First of Slayers. Check out the new look

Size chart

Still need to add a couple, but check out all the dragons lined up

Nearly done with the main piece 👀

I imagine this species cracks open crustacean shells with its beak, then uses a long, barbed tongue to scoop out the meat. It also does this to armored humans, and bird’s nests on sea cliffs

Crab cracker dragon update

He went through a heavy revision I’m liking a lot. Still heavy construction but take a look

New Dragon

Hey friends, this is the very first exploratory sketch for a new species I’m concepting. Take a look!

Status update

Hey guys! Apologies for being a little slow the past couple weeks. Been having major renovations at the house (replaced entire floor and knocked down a few walls) and it’s been killing me. I’ll be back to my usual pace soon tho, worry not friends!

New Merch

Hey! Im gonna use Patreon's loyalty program to get yall some new merch every 3 months for a year! Only thing is, which would you like to see? Mugs, shirts, prints, etc are on the table

Cover concept

Still wip, but take a gander at the new cover!

Dragons are not the only apex predators around

Dragon-fighter

Concept for a quilled mammal that’s known for wrestling dragons. Colors and such wip

Apologies for the recent slowness

I’m having major renovations in my home, which is distracting me from a lot of art making time. I’ll have more cool stuff for y’all soon tho!

More of this guy.

As you can see, heavy updating. Now it’s in need of text and some feature drawings and it’ll be set!

Decorated Mount

Still heavy wip, but y’all might like to see the process here. Still wanna do a long snouted variant, but I like this too

Drakes

I’ve never touched the flightless dragons before, but you guys get the early, EARLY exploratory sketches I have for them. They’re livestock and mounts, conceptually

Some heavy edits to the wings and head of this decorated dragon

Color variant

Trying some potential individual variation with wailing bishops. Old specimens tarnish around the shoulders and neck from all the aerial shoving matches they fight in

Hagwyrm V2

The ol plague dragon is finally back, and nearly done. This was the second dragon I made for the codex actually, the first being the Hellbasker

Skewer.

Wip scene depicting a Kinghound going toe-to-toe with a Sicklemouth. The dogs handler hopes to capture the dragon for massive profit at the Pits

A few tweaks and she’ll be done

Need to clean up some smaller compositional details and add a scientific name

Print Announcement!

Hey! Someone pointed out their prints shipped with the incorrect layout, resulting in a cropped piece. This shouldn’t be, so I’m looking into a fix. Just letting y’all know I know 🤝

More WIP

This fella keeps evolving! I felt a long tail helped with the overall shapes, and this makes my first arrow-headed tail on a dragon. This will be a real cool Timelapse

Armorhead subspecies WIP

The world of codex is big, and overrun with fauna of all kinds. The armor heads are particularly successful, so I’m attempting to make a sheet dedicated to their species and forms across each biome

Overhaul of some design points to make a more interesting look

More WIP

Redid the tail and some hue edits to add a more cohesive look

Frost dragon WIP

This guy is based on old 70s fantasy art of evil wizards. Might be fun to pull unusual sources of inspiration into a design that uses more breath attacks than brute force. This is the “sorcerer” of the north, who breathes not fire but liquid CO^2. Name pending

Additional veilwright studies

I wanted to delve more into the anatomy of my existing dragons, and in particular wanted to show you some anatomy hidden in the main illustration- such as the leathery, flexible back spines, the standing posture, and the fused, plant-grinding dental batteries. I wanna do one with the hullbreaker as well, and any others if the...

Ornate Bloodletter

This is a dragon you’ve seen a bit of before, but I’m on the fence with including it in volume 1 of the codex. This breed is a great mount for one lightly armored person, and sports some of the most elaborate coloring of any dragon. These huge feet help it lift and fly off with prey- it’s heavy weight tolerance addition...

Giant Scribbles

Here’s some exploratory doodles made to figure out how the giants will interact with humans. As well as an early version of Whiteknuckle, the plant dragons revile.
