✨🐉 As Many Dragons As Possible 🐉✨

Who is the blogger?

I'm Tont and I'm a silly little artist drawing silly little dragons! I follow from @boot-prints

What is the blog?

An effort to draw as many dragons as I can in 2024. The goal is to get the machinery of creativity working again after being left to rust for a very long time. The upside is hopefully there will be a bunch of fun dragons to look at as a result.

What is the inspiration?

So the tiger a day blog from 2022 has lived in my head rent free for the whole of 2023 and since I've started this I've found out there were loads more over the years for different creatures?? All the daily dragon blogs stand on the shoulders of giants and I love it.

All the daily dragon blogs?

There are so many of us this year! I'm excited to be part of such a busy group, some of whom I'm gonna tag here once I'm off mobile and can have two tabs going.

Can folks request a dragon?

Absolutely yeah!

Do the dragons have names?

Only the ones that get named by peer review or the ones that came pre-named so if there's not a name in the original post please feel free to name them!

All dragon posts will be tagged #dragon by the day if you want to filter for them.

Slightly sheepish sketch to take the pressure out

such beautiful interesting dragon illustrations, going through your blog has made me so happy.

I'd love to see what about a dragon inspired by fern leaves, no pressure though if you are working on other suggestions.

Today’s dragon is inspired by all the hundreds of dragons I’ve drawn in the steamed up windows of the skyride to work.

Hi, this is adorable! She was not originally intended to be a monstrous nightmare but she absolutely is now and she is one hundred percent now named skyfang!!

[daily-dragon-drawing]

Thank you so much for including image descriptions on your posts! I would have reblogged some posts already but I hit my daily limit.

Of course! I'm trying to add alt text to all my images on this blog.

Still learning the best way to describe images, so if anyone has suggestions or advice on that I would happily learn more! ^w^

Got caught up in the eyes a little bit on this one, I wonder what things this dragon has seen and what news it is bringing the traveller.

Daily 2024 masterlist! If I missed you, or you know a blog I missed, feel free to tell me about it and I’ll add.

Blogs must have posted a daily drawing within the last week or have a post explaining a lack of drawings that includes a general idea of a return date to be added to this list.

Blogs running before 2024 don’t follow this as strictly, as long as there are still recent drawings categorized as “daily”.

Doodle of my golden plush dragon :)

The dragon today is the friends we made along the way (and the freezer we had to fully defrost to fix the fridge)

[dragonbytheday]

Hi, if anyone has any particular dragons or dragon ideas they'd like to see this is a friendly reminder my requests are open and I would love some ideas ✨

Do you think, that when the dragons talk of Saint George, they remember a different saint?

i think someone needs to find the big ol post about how daily art things like inktober are designed with quick sketches in mind, and show it to anyone starting a daily challenge

This dragon has something more valuable than any gold in her tower.

Back on it with the dragons, it’s funny how the moment I took the pressure off myself to draw a dragon every single day I was hyped as can be to draw dragons again. Today’s dragon passes on a technicality. He’s here, he’s vibin’, he’s part of a much larger work in progress. Hopefully you’ll see him with his full family tomorrow 💛✨
