Welcome to My Lair...

first and foremost, welcome to my blog!!!! I'm quite pleased you decided to check it out. you can call me Fiend if you must ever refer to me. Some Things to Note: This is a (mostly) Wings of Fire blog! This is where I talk about my WoF x ROTTMNT (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) AU. If you see me talking about a rewrite, that's what I'm talking about, since it doubles as that as well!! It's rad I promise. I am open to requests! you may have seen that I have mostly drawn ocs badly in ms paint, and I still delight in doing that. I am willing to draw them normally (via Krita, the drawing app i use), but it will likely take longer. Right now, I am not open to commissions. But! I probably will be in the near future. I am running a QnA!! you can take a look at it here (even though the designs are slightly outdated). It already says so in the post, but please ask questions any time!! I can't promise I'll be quick at responding, but I'll answer whenever I can. (plus, even asks that aren't about the QnA are welcome :3 I'm fond of talking to people on here). The Log: (yknow. for organization. more will be added as time goes on, i promise) Book One: - Peril x Clay precursor Book Two: - Blister Reveal (redrawn) - Near the End Book Three: - RainWing Imprisonment (and some worldbuilding also) Book Four: - Viper and Flame's Incident Book Five: - The Eye of Onyx (or rather the lack thereof (arc 2 isn't quite flesh out enough to structurally add anything here but i do intend on fixing that soon!!) World Building: - General Tribe Design Head Busts (even though I'm Not Touching arc 3 lol) - Dinosaurs? in MY SkyWing village? - Slightly Outdated SkyWing Design - IceWing Communication - RainWing Ms Paint Fullbody (i gave them their horns back later on) - Smoking SeaWings - Scales, Feathers and Fur of the Tribes - SandWing Side-Eye - Dinosaur Addition if any of the links dont work for some reason, let me know!! and that's pretty much it! if you have any questions, feel free to ask! and if you want to get to know me a little bit better, you can check out this post where i did a Meet the Artist thing.

and that is all! enjoy and Godspeed.

its been a bad couple months. like, real bad.

burn-out's been wringing me out, my family and I are getting evicted, college has been kicking my trash, and I've been working through an ancient anger that's been festering in me for as long as I can remember.

but I've also been growing into the person I truly want to be in the midst of all this. and I've been having to learn that choosing to live rather than just survive isn't a reward. it's a necessity. and even though I've done bad things, that doesn't mean I'm unworthy of living a lovely life.

anyway. two grilled cheese sandwiches with garlic cream cheese, cheddar and Gouda, and fresh rosemary and basil, a sliced apple, and root beer.

[fiendish-illos]

the flies decided to join in. i gave them one of my apple slices while I was still eating so we could eat together

they still like it over the crumbs of what they were already eyeing, that being my sandwiches

i have a sweet tooth too. they're so real for this

fellas, i am so sorry ive been slow with artfight this year ;o;

i'd be (artistically and metaphorically) siccing myself on more people if i didn't have so much crap hitting the fan rn 💀 i might make a post about it later because it's genuinely ridiculous however ☝️in spite of everything, i still endeavor to participate in artfight. so, i think i'm going to pace myself enough to be able to make at least one (1) attack a week. it aint much, but it's honest work i'm still able to do revenges!! but they probably won't be too frequent, i'm afraid :') (tho ngl that was to be expected even before everything happened hjdscgjgsjk)

[fiendish-illos]

Fanart of @fiendish-illos oc, Warbler.

I really like Fiend’s art style and headcanons. I’ve been following them for a while, so decided I wanted to draw one of their characters in my own style!

I didn’t find a fully body reference for her so the neck down is just whatever I decided, and this also features my own Skywing headcanons so it’s not completely true to the character anyways.

(Also not sure of Fiend’s pronouns so let me know if I need to change them <3)

[fiendish-illos]

BRO OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS AMAZING I'M GONNA CRY THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR DRAWING THIS FOR ME 😭😭😭😭 I'M GONNA CHERISH THIS FOREVER

[fiendish-illos]

Gimmie the creature :3

>:}< rejoice el creaturo be upon thee

i love this guy bro, i hope to learn more about him in the future :3

[fiendish-illos]

I just noticed two things

1: do seawings not have wings in your au?

2: if seawings do, in fact, not have wings, then how does Tsunami travel with the rest of the dod? has that been figured out yet?

3: is Anemone albino?

SeaWings do not have wings in this AU! I admit, I initially decided to do this because I could not come up with a unique wing design that I was satisfied with for the life of me, but also because I thought it would be really interesting to think about, so I just ran with it! Concerning Tsunami's ability to keep pace with everyone, she (along with all the other DoD) has animus-forged weapons that grant her a specific ability--- hers being swords that create portals of any place she can clearly imagine in her mind. However, before she could harness proper control over her weapons (and before she grew to be as large as, and then larger than Clay), she rode on Clay's back whenever they travelled anywhere via skies (they do run on the ground a good portion of their travels, however, to better stay out of sight. SeaWings are also excellent runners). And yes! Anemone is indeed albino! I thought it was already established in the books until I saw her on the cover of Turtle's book (I honestly thought she was Pike at first lol). I also don't see a lot of people draw her as properly albino either (not a dig at anyone, I just find it interesting how underrated that trait for her is), so I decided to take up that mantle :>

Thank you for your questions! I always love answering them <3
