I LOVE the new dragons. I adored them all throughout last year and oh my gosh the babies this year?? Pure wonder!

However, there's this one that I just cannot get over and I. I really. Really am begging. Someone please.



The face? Wonderful. That scale texture? Gorgeous! The wings...? The wings.

Please for the love of ALL that is holy in dragon wing anatomy fix this wing.

This took me 5, maybe 10 minutes but-


Please.

No support from me. Personally, it seems really nitpicky. Sure it may be visually bothersome to some but in the long run, the art is only displayed for a few seconds in the battles/explore encounters in a July-specific area and the art is already completed. It has no effect on the gameplay or even the overall look of the game/event

Sure it might be nice to fix it up, but you have to realize that by asking them to prioritize this, it would take away time from all the other art stuff on their queue. Male poses, new female poses, new mutations, new decors, re-drawing VERY old explore/decor/BG stuff, new storyline art, etc. would all need to be put on hold for this one thing that only a few people even care about. Some people might say “It’s only a couple changes!” but art takes time. And the style that LD aims for takes even more time than you’d expect.

So when you think about which one you’d rather have: a couple art fixes for 1 event-specific thing that’s not really ever on the screen (I never noticed it even once in the entirety of July despite playing and battling in celestial explore every day), OR progress on things that have been in the works for years (aka Male Poses), personally I’d prefer the latter option. Sure, eventually it’d be cool to maybe rework that art but it’s very new compared to other site art, so I doubt it’ll happen for a very long time

So no support, sorry!

I am going to have to no support. I like the way it looks. I know some players don't like this style of dragon/wyvern but not all dragons have the full wing membranes. There are some that just have the bone then up the wing bone it has the membranes.

I would support a small modification to the “elbow” (it sort of looks broken/twisted to me) but no support regarding the wing membrane changes. There are dragons that don’t have the thumb to shoulder membrane or the membrane from side to finger. That doesn’t need changing, imo.

No support from me; this is a space dragon, it flies where there's no atmosphere so it doesnt really have to conform to aerodynamics. Its a fantasy being so its only up to the artist how to draw them, there's no "wrong" way to do it. You think that's the right "anatomy" and the other artist will think otherwise and they have all their rights to, there's no single set anatomy for a made-up creature. Especially when its not even an Earth dragon, its a space dragon! Maybe this shape of wing is just right for the energy flows or the asteroids it flies around.

I get y'all! But when the majority of the other dragons presented in the event have pretty well formed and accurate wings, this one seems very out of place. It wouldn't be too much trouble to tweak the wings even in a small way, to at least match the art of the others!

Personally no support. Just seems petty to me.
