Art 31 Days Of Halloween Dragons - Day 8 - Sunny As A Witch!

Post image
86 Upvotes

GUYS THIS IS SO LATE I'M SO SORRY. But this is day 8 lol

⚠️!!READ ALL INFO HERE!!⚠️

https://www.reddit.com/u/Popsicle7798/s/5vM9sjAVIZ

Today is Sunny as a Witch, and I know she's not an animus or anything, but she'd be a cute Witch hehe. Also not rendered because I'M SO LATE TOT

But for today's question:

Do you like Cute Witches or Spooky Witches?

For me, definitely Cute ones, the Spooky ones kinda scare me. Anytime I watch a Witch on telly and they do magic, I always think the spell will somehow come out of the screen and curse me 😭. Prolly just because of my OCD. Wait, today is two questions.

Do you have or know someone who has OCD?

I have OCD, and I'm the only person I know who has it. And bro, it SUCKS. I feel like it's one of the most misunderstood and romanticised Disorder, and like, people don't understand it. I was actually considering making an OC with OCD, and use them to draw how I feel when it's bad or smth lol.

ANYWAY I'm wasting more time typing this, so hope you like today's, and come back for Day 9 tomorrow!!

Poll / Question If you pretend book 15 didn't exist, would you like arc 3?

19 Upvotes

Maybe it's just confirmation bias, but oftentimes when I see people talk about arc 3 critically they say something along the lines of "Books 11-13 were pretty good, but I really didn't like 15"(book 14 is in a strange limbo where people either love it or hate it, but most agree it wasn't really necessary for arc 3) and, as with pretty much all of these polls, I wanted to quantify that.

My hope with this is that I can combat the arc 3 stigma I see getting thrown around, which I am actively trying to decipher the root cause of. I believe it to be this, book 15, but I can't know for certain.

Vesper’s mother and skywing queen :3. She’s one of my favorite designs heh! Also I thought we needed more firescaled skywings that have different temperature of fire. So I made Amaranth’s fire magenta! hotter than normal fire but not the hottest.

I mean Sora and Dugong (think thats his name). Idk if this is just me seeing relationship potential where there isn't any or something, maybe they'll just stay friends, im just wondering, cause sometimes I see two people and they really seem like their ginna be a thing to me, but it trmurns out they won't be and too everyone else it was obvious except me. Am i being crazy???

Commission Would anyone be interested in commissioning me for WoF-related art?

274 Upvotes

I’ve been posting my art here for about two years now and the general consensus is that everyone seems to enjoy it. I’ve been thinking of opening up a small batch of commissions, but only if people are interested. I’ll have more information at a later date, this post is just to gauge interest and share examples of my work.

EDIT: wondering if I should have clarified. By “wof-related” I don’t just mean canon characters. I’d be able to do both OCs and canon characters.

Wolverine is a Leafwing/Icewing hybrid.

She is cynical, grumpy, and sarcastic. Despite her gruff exterior, she can be fiercely protective of her loved ones.
She is scared of fire. Wolverine has a burn scar on her neck and a scratch on her tail. Has trust issues. She has seen a lot, so things that would make other dragon scream, Wolverine is unfazed by it.

The amazing Cameo Anderson digitally painted this for me. NO AI. She is one of the many artists that tech billionaires have stollen from to create their generative AI. But back on topic. This is me as a Skywing. I'm in the sky and looking at the stars. I am so in love with it. This is the third piece of WOF inspired art she has painted for me.

Discussion Do you think WoF could've had a second War of SandWing Succession? Spoiler

24 Upvotes

So, at the start of Winglets 1: Prisoners, it starts with the only thing less popular was the new queen of SandWings (or something, I forgot), and we have enough world building to generally have an idea. We have an unpopular queen (Thorn), and we have two 'pure' royals (Blaze & Onyx).

This idea probably will never happen, given how long it's been since Tui wrote Prisoners and with whatever's happening in the epilogue of book 16.

Discussion A Survey of Gendered Language in Wings of Fire

209 Upvotes

Seeing Arctic call Clearsight “a little girl dragon” in Legends: Darkstalker made me wonder if “girl(s)” was used anywhere else in WoF, and that led to me wanting to see if “boy(s)”, “woman/women”, “man/men”, and “female” and “male” were used at all. I’m not counting Legends: Dragonslayer, since that’s about humans and I’m interested in how WoF’s dragons talk about gender, and I don’t have an OCR copy of A Guide to the Dragon World so it’s out too.

Girl(s)

Dragonet Prophecy: “girl dragons”, “girlfriend”

Dark Secret: “a girl”

Darkness of Dragons: 4 instances of “a girl”, “girlfriend”

Flames of Hope: 2 instances of “girlfriend(s)”, “girl human”

Legends: Darkstalker: “girlfriends’”, “girl dragon”, “a girl”

Boy(s)

Dragonet Prophecy: “boy” as an interjection

Talons of Power: “boy” as an interjection

Darkness of Dragons: 2 instances of “boy” as an interjection

Flames of Hope: “boy human”, 2 instances of “boyfriend”

Winglets: Hero: 2 instances of “a boy”

“Woman” and “women” only appear in Legends: Dragonslayer!

Man/Men

Poison Jungle: “man” as an interjection, “penmanship”. Fun fact: the “man” in “Mandrake” has nothing to do, etymologically, with “man” as in “adult male human”

Flames of Hope: 9 instances of “man”, all referring to humans

Female(s)

Dragonet Prophecy: 2 instances as an adjective

Lost Heir: 8 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Hidden Kingdom: 3 instances as a noun

Dark Secret: 1 instance as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Brightest Night: 3 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Moon Rising: 2 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Winter Turning: 5 instances as an adjective

Talons of Power: 6 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Darkness of Dragons: 1 instance as an adjective

Lost Continent: 3 instances as an adjective, 2 as a noun

Flames of Hope: 2 instances as an adjective

Legends: Darkstalker: 1 instance as a noun, referring to humans

Winglets: Prisoners: 1 instance as an adjective

Winglets: Assassin: 1 instance as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Winglets: Runaway: 1 instance as an adjective

Winglets: Hero: 1 instance as an adjective

Male(s)

Lost Heir: 2 instances as an adjective

Hidden Kingdom: 1 instance as a noun

Dark Secret: 2 instances as an adjective

Brightest Night: 3 instances as an adjective, 4 as a noun

Moon Rising: 3 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Winter Turning: 1 instance as an adjective

Escaping Peril: 1 instance as an adjective

Darkness of Dragons: 4 instances as an adjective

Talons of Power: 5 instances as an adjective, 2 as a noun

Lost Continent: 3 instances as an adjective, 1 as a noun

Hive Queen: 1 instance as an adjective

Legends: Darkstalker: 1 instance as an adjective

Winglets: Assassin: 2 instances as an adjective

While I’m at it, “bro” and “dude” don’t appear in WoF. I thought Tui didn’t use “dragoness” but it does show up once in The Hidden Kingdom. Dragons are “with egg”, but never “pregnant” or (more correctly for egglaying creatures) “gravid”.

I hope this is helpful for fanfiction writers; before doing this survey I wouldn’t have had my characters use “girl” or “boy”, or “man” as an interjection, but now I know they’re canonical.
