#deathgripperkin

Decided I maybe don't like the name Coral anymore for my one deathgripper kin, so might change it. Kinda half n' half right now

Also finally settled on what I think I look like

Basic Rise of Berk deathgripper but with yellow lines on the edges of the interior parts of the stinger sheath. Not visible when closed. By lines on the edges, I mean something similar to how the back spines are lined with red.

Name ideas welcome!

Being a dragon and having heartburn is so funny. Like, yeah, I am a deathgripper and I should be able to fire flammable acid projectiles. Yeah, I should be able to breathe fire. Instead I just have this pain in my chest and throat whenever I eat anything enjoyable. Acid actually burning my throat right now. Some dragon I am, not even immune to my own acid.

Anyone ever feel broody like a bird?

Ok, I know the title is weird, but hear me out for a sec?

Last two nights I've been feeling something that's kinda new to me. Broody is the best word I can think of to describe it, like when a chicken is sitting on her eggs or chicks and has her feathers all proofed up to keep them warm and safe. It's only started showing itself when I get in bed for the night and settle down.

It's not distressing me or preventing me from sleeping, so I'm not worried about it, but I think I'm going to try and make my bed a bit more of a nest and get a few bigger plushies to soothe whatever instinct this is. Kinda wish I had an egg plush maybe :/

I tried thinking of which kintypes might be influencing this, and I figured it's mostly the various dragon species/identities (only some of them) + snow stalker

Lmk if anyone else has experienced this! I'm curious to hear about other's experiences :D

Self-portrait. I am not super happy about the way it turned out, but I will admit, that is probably due to how rarely I use colored pencil.

man why are the deathgripper pics on google so badddddddd

trying to find a good temporary one for until I actually draw what I look like but all the ones that would work are so pixelated and blurry

I scrolled the entire HTTYD kin tag and found not a single other deathgripper. I cannot say I am surprised by that, but it is disappointing.

To clarify, I am not one of the deathgrippers from the movie. I am just one of the species. Same coloration, though

Some deathgripper OCs I made because they do not get nearly enough love. Sorry about the image quality. The bases I used are made by Serpendino on Devianart and are free to use. Feel free to take inspiration from the characters, but do not copy them. Thank you.

I do not kin any of the individuals drawn here, but I do have a deathgripper kintype.
