Tiny Dragon - Tumblr Posts
Some little dragons I made in the middle of art class out of moldable eraser. They're about as long as my tumb (my hands are small). That stuff is suprisingly hard to work with because it always snaps back in place, making it hard to smooth out or make points.
You know how those cheese wheel snacks come covered in wax? This is what I made this tiny guy out of! He's shiny and red and kinda hard to see. Oh well! Sure is cute to me.
Another star dragon! I call this one Ariser the star runner. Coincidentally my little brother has coerced me into staying up with him to see a comet tonight. I'm especially proud of how the wings turned out! They make 'im look like a bright blaze. This guy is a bit bigger than a gold dollar.
Can you draw a tiny lizard dragon that secretly hoards pennies?
“Bottlecaps”
My submission for ArtOrder’s Tiny Dragons project! This was made with my usual mess of watercolor, ink, and colored pencil on 8x8″ hotpress watercolor paper…this time I really tried to pin down the value structure of the whole piece, and I’m feeling good about that aspect of it. :D
Prints available here.
A request was made for me to post any cute centipedes I might know of.
Centipedes pretty much all fall under a “sleek and lethal” aesthetic but to me one of the cutest things of all is when a tough fierce predator gets gentle and protective. A mother centipede will stay wrapped around her eggs and babies not only to keep parasites at bay but to hold them up off of the ground and keep them clean of any fungi or bacterial infections! Some studies find that if the babies are already hatched, the whole family will scatter and fend for themselves when disturbed (such as by a huge human uncovering them), so the babies don’t “need” the mother’s protection, but she’ll still hold onto them for a long time if she can. Every extra day that they get a little more time to grow under her watch probably makes a difference.
Meet my new wyvern OC Grape! It stands 5 inches tall and it behaves similarly to a dog. It’s a loyal companion to other dragons and it can be hyperactive, especially if fed kiwis.
