WIP HiveWire Dragon Begins

[Chris]

Here's another option with the Chihuahua and Dragon with short snout.

 

[NapalmArsenal]

Chupacabra?

Although, you could put a combo of fur and scales on him for a neat effect around the snout and eyes and feet and use like an Ocelot texture. Really Fun!!

 

[JOdel]

Dachshund morph and a lion's mane (recolored) for something Asian-styled. Not the grand Imperial sort, but a kind of pocket-dragon (or sleeve dragon, more likely)

I really do like the cross-morphinc capability. As most people know, I do a lot of illos for Potterfics. I would be really chuffed to be able to design stable morph recipes for Hebridean Blacks, Welsh Greens, Peruvian Vipertooths, Sweedish Snortsnouts, and what all.

That sounds like a pretty kewl Foo Dog?

I like your thinking with the dragon stables! Would that would be called an aerie?

 

[Pendraia]

Very cool...I can see a lot of fantasy animals being able to be created here.

 

[Satira Capriccio]

Chris, do you think it would be possible to have a short neck option on the dragon?

I like the idea of combining the dragon with other creatures, but I'd also like to be able to have the neck shorter.

Love the combinations!

 

[Chris]

Sure. Just made you this one.

 

[Miss B]

Looking great Chris!

 

[NapalmArsenal]

This could be a really fun theme for a contest or render challenge.

 

[Miss B]

Oh . . . What kind of flying fantasy animal can YOU come up with? Now that would be a great theme.

Or possibly how whimsical a creature can you create?

I keep seeing visions of Pokemon type characters.

Mouth/Teeth
• Flat
• Bucktooth

I wish I had decent modeling and rigging skills because I have a bunch of cool ideas for accessories, like Mains, Feather Crests, Fins, Beards, Tentacle crests, etc...

I think I have some ideas on some mats for those.

Kage, did you see the replies in the Backgrounds thread?

Back to rendering!

Well, since you're 3/4's of the way there anyway... shrink the back end, get rid of the neck, add some fangs and reattach the wings and you got a bat.

 

[Rae134]

YAY Eclark! a flying fox! (we have them here and I haven't been able to find that kind of 3D bat so would be AWESOME to add to my slow growing list of Aussie animals!)

 

[JOdel]

I guess a stable of dragons probably would be an aerie (eyrie?). But by stable, I meant being able to actually build a recipe for each breed. After all, why should i be the only one to use them?

There has been a lot of discussion over the years on what to call a gathering of dragons. The answer it seems depends on the source or fictional setting a great deal. Some of my favorites though, are:
• Clutch or Brood for hatchlings or eggs.
• Flight, Wing, or Cloud for a gathering of adult dragons are the more common terms used.
• Clan, if it is a family or tribe of intelligent dragons
• Dignity, or Circle, if the dragons are very old and sentient, as they are very wise and often in a ruler-ship or advisory position.

My own personal use in the Whyrmwood Cycle - It was a Cycle of dragons, a pestilence a thousand thousand years in the making.

Just my thoughts.
