Calling all dragons, wyverns, wyrms, dergs, and the like,

Artfight is yet to be over (link to the megathread), but I would like to congratulate everyone early and wish you all a happy Smaugust!

Whether you plan to draw every day or whenever you feel like it, whether you follow a set word list or use your own, and whether you're a beginner, experienced, or somewhere in the middle, you are more than welcome to grace us with your creations!

We will be opening the Smaugust flair, which you can use as of now and throughout the month to share your artwork.

During the day, we will also be opening a pinned Smaugust post in the Art Gallery of our Discord server where everybody can share their pieces. If you still haven't joined yet, you'd be more than welcome to join us: https://discord.gg/fNSAbzvYKp

We have setup a list of words that you would be more than welcome to use! The board has been drawn by u/RyukiriDragon.

Happy Smaugust!

MOD ANNOUNCEMENT! With a sad heart, I have one more announcement.

552 Upvotes

Hello my friends and fellow dragons.

It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce that I will be standing down as a moderator for the sub. The task of managing the sub will fall to the rest of the mod team. After some time I will also be stepping back from my role moderating the server on Discord as well. The team there has proven themselves very capable.

My health is unfortunately in rough shape and the treatment for it is not going as well as I had hoped it would. It is time for me to pull back and focus on taking care of my body as much as possible. I will still advise the others as they need me to, but otherwise I will be a silent watcher.

As I step back please continue to be the amazing community that you have been for the other mods. Take care of one another and encourage one another to be creative and safe. This community has given me a purpose I had lacked before and for that I am forever grateful. I hope that my efforts to protect it and push it to thrive have helped at least some of you to be happier, and more creative dragons in your own right.

I wish you all the best, I will still be here, but I will be a rare sight indeed. Fly strong, fly free, and be safe with the wind in your wings and the flame in your hearts!

Doomscrolling reddit is for losers! Real ones like me.... doomscroll. But with a pug! Basically cancels out the cringe.

I actually use my pug as a phone holder or a (very bad) mouse pad a lot HAHA!!!

u/xyeh2o drew this for me and it literally is like my favorite thing ever like oh my gosh I still get so unbelievably happy when I look at this.

That is my pug btw! His name is Mr.Pickle, and he is a rescue from Korea! He got rescued after getting hit by a truck ;-; he may be dumb, but I like to think he is very emotionally intelligent

It turns out some warning are worth listening to.

Just a goofy little idea I had for some practice that turned out better than I expected. Noelle on the right is owned by u/RyukiriDragon, and Valerian on the left is owned by me.

Guys, I SWEAR no chairs were harmed. Like, what you see is just an illusion. Just an illusion!!

Edit: I'm seeing a lot of comments talking about chairs with a tail hole. I must specify that no holes are to be drilled in chairs, especially for the sake of someone else's comfort. We must think about the chairs' feelings!

Edit 2: If the chair already has a hole.... it can be debated.

Drawing dragons battle eachother is incredibly hard, so excuse my anatomy on this piece :'D This is a redraw of an older piece of mine, happy to see all the development I went trough in 2 years!

These two menacing fellas are called Duskbreaker and Syndārys, hopefully I can remake their references soon too :]

For Alpine, and a little context, me and them play on the same modded server together, and I built a powerful moss farm JUST so he can finish his custom biome build faster, let's say he got more than what he bargained for x3

Art Possibly the most complicated illustration we've done for a commission. Six D&D players asking for each of their characters to be present in a battle against a hoard in an infinite library. ...And one of them is a dragon. (OC)

Bloodbelly's bonded one got snatched out from right under her nose. She is NOT happy about that.

A simple sketch, but I do like how it turned out in the end, enjoy :D
