Explain Please

Can I PLEASE get a headshot of their headshot here

OKOK SO YOU KNOW HOW BALD EAGLES DO THAT DEATH SPIRAL WHERE THEY LOCK TALONS AND DIVE TOWARD THE GROUND. what if SkyWings do the same thing, usually done instead of a kiss at weddings, as a proposal, ect. And while Moon and Carny are in the Sky Kingdom they see a pair of SkyWings doing this, and Carny explains it represents the partnership between lovers. Then later on CARNY AND MOON END UP CHASING EACHOTHER IN THE SKY PLAYING AND STUFF AND THEY END UP UPSIDE DOWN AND MOON TAKES CARNY'S TALON AND THEY DEATH SPIRAL AND THAT'S HOW THEY START DATING

“ummmmm ur bra strap is showing :/ ”

Skywings have a deep rumbling that means something similar, due to the larger lungs they have. Seawings have a barking laugh, like a seal

I imagine IceWings and SandWings as being quite similar, the only real difference being one lives in the cold and the other the heat. They're the only two tribes that purr.

Wait her middle name is TAMARA?

Roooosarrjeurosjddj why does the WoF merch look so buttcheek 💔💔 my personal theory is some1 from Scholastic who's never actually read the books made the designs ewwww

Hey so anyone want to talk about how the scales in WOF are really messed up?

redesigning Six-claws!

I must've hallucinated someone requesting Six-claws, because I couldn't find it in my inbox by the time I was finished with this design! A little sad about breaking my streak of replying to asks instead of just throwing my redesigns out into the wind, but it's okay.

Here's my take on Six-claws! I had a great time doing this redesign, since the winglet books are actually some of my all-time favorites. I just love how charming the short stories are, and they honestly tend to be more concise than a few of the worse-written main arc books (No shade to Tui, writing is hard enough.)

I wanted to stay in line with the punk style I gave Thorn (+ eventually the other outclaws,) but I felt that it wasn't really sitting right on Six-claws, given his personality and background... he just doesn't really give me the vibe of someone who would spend hours on accessorizing, and view it as less productive than solving problems. Because of that, I tried to limit his accessories as much as I could - only keeping the outclaw tail band and a few neck/ear pieces.

As for his actual pattern, I tried to keep things simple with some spot/stripe patterns, keeping his color pallet relatively neutral and sandwing-ish since he's not meant to stand out all too much, outside of the talons.

This was a short post, but that's alright.. thank you all so much for checking up on this blog! My askbox is as open as ever, but please be sure to check up on my pinned post and see which characters are already in queue!

See you later (๑˃ᴗ˂)

Whiteout design, Whiteout design! Girls around the world cheer!

This is a fresh design I’ve given the loveliest hybrid there is! Whiteout is by far my absolute favorite character in the series, and I had to spend some time giving her some love. I am a firm believer that Whiteouts canon design is already quite pretty, but I just love to add complexity as a treat. Much of the shape language I used for this are swirls- something about her is very swirly to me, and so I gave into the temptation to give her cloud/mist-like markings!

I had quite an interesting thought for the two white stars on her wings. One outshining the other, and intercepting its path. Darkstalker outshining Whiteout- wanting all of his mother’s love to himself, as he had thought during his hatching. Gaining powers while Whiteouts were still pushed deep within.

Love her so badly.

He absolutely would respect the boys night/ girls night boundaries

Rainwing Headcanons

Rainwings are the lightest and most agile of all the tribes. They are excellent climbers, and their prehensile tails can support twice their weight. Their elliptical wings allow them to glide easily between the trees. They are also incredible mimics. Though fruit makes up the majority of their diet, they will also eat honey, mushrooms, grubs, giant ants, elephant beetles, piranhas, freshwater stingrays, and tambaqui.

Rainwings display dominance by arching their backs, baring their fangs, and flashing their wings and frills bright colors.

Ancient Rainwing War Crest:

Rainwings are often traveling merchants, occasionally renting a stall in a market as opposed to building a permanent stall. They often bring tapirs with them as beasts of burden. Merchants and their animals can be identified by the silk mesh they wear.

Rainwing wares:

Rainwings sell silk and silk mesh (which only they know how to make), fruit, tea and herbs, as well as feathers, exotic pets and flowers, insects, and animal pelts.

Rainwings are also hired as performers, tailors and personal stylists for royalty, event planners, and interior decorators
