Afternoon nap

Postby vindhov » Sat Feb 09, 2013 1:01 am

This was so fun to draw! It's hard to spueeze in small detail in Oekaki so I had to settle with this, but I still love it ^^
I even made a species out of them while I was drawing, I'm even considering making them an adoptable species since I would love to just design and come up with more information about them ^^

Here is some info:
These dragons are named Teacup dragons since most of them aren't bigger than one. They mostly live in flowerpatches and are known to travel a long way before settling down temporarily in a suitable patch. It looks like flowers are growing on them which they use as a camoflauge to hide from predators. Some hide their colourfull body in the soil with their green tail sticking up and some curl up in the grass to blend in. They usually only have flowers on their tails, but they can fake flowers anywhere on their body. Their diet consist mainly of plants and the occasional insects.
This is it so far ^^

Anyway back to the picture.
I rotated the canvas while I was drawing so that I would get a cool angle when it was done. ^^ They are also sleeping on a picnic table XD

The pink dragon is based on this flower(Don't know the name):

And the green one is based on a flower we have alot of where I live. It's called Liljekonvalj in Swedish and the only translation I found was "Lily of the valley" which I think sound kinda pretty:

Now listen to this song while you watch this picture again (I know it's a speedpaint, but I don't know the name of the song):

Dosen't it make you wanna curl up and go to sleep? ^^

Hope you like it as much as I :D

EDIT: Thanks so much for the Feature! :D
And for everybody wondering here is the newly started adoption page: viewtopic.php?f=52&t=1657587 ^^
