I did some studies of the sky on a plane yesterday and had doodled Temeraire on one of them while waiting for the sky to change. So I decided to add the rest of Lily's formation really quick on the rest after I got home >w<

In celebration of the Year of the Dragon, here's Lily's full formation overhead!

I really wanted to show the full variation in color and wing structure of the group. The wing shape is all based on different birds as that was the easiest way for me to visualize different skills between each dragon breed.

Would love to draw more of the middleweights and lightweights! I wasn't able to give them much detail here.

Dragons

I painted 8 dragon figurines to look like characters from Naomi Noviks Temeraire series!

It is done, my final goal of having Lily’s formation as figurines has been completed. Originally this obsession started with Iskierka so she will be here as a bonus to the formation.

Each dragon has its own post with more pictures in detail.

For those wondering what minatures I based the characters on, here is them from left to right:

Immortalis: “Young Bronze Dragon” by Wizkids - Nolzur’s Marvelous Miniatures

Maximus: “Krondys, Son of Dracothion” by Warhammer - Age of Sigmar

Nitidus: “Young Red Dragon” by Wizkids - Nolzur’s Marvelous Miniatures

Dulcia: “Young Green Dragon” by Wizkids - Nolzur’s Marvelous Miniatures

Messoria: “Young Bronze Dragon” by Wizkids - Attack Wing

Lily: “Ancient White Dragon” by Lord of the Print

Iskierka: “Young Red Dragon” by Lord of the Print

Temeraire: “Gold Dragon” by MiniMonsterMayhem

I am aware that the sizes of the dragons do not match their sizes from the book perfectly. Maximus does have the biggest body, and Lily does have the longest wings though. However the light-weights Dulcia and Nitidus are more middle-weights in this case.

To get a better picture of how Lily’s formation would look like I placed them in the described order on a rug:

I am so very happy I could finish this massive project and want to thank everyone who helped me plan out the designs, especially my friends from the Temeraire Discord.

This won’t be the end for me completely, since I do wish to paint at least Lien, but for now I will stop and enjoy the view of those I have on my shelf.

It also makes me happy to see that I am not the only one taking joy in seeing my Temeraire figurines, which made the effort behind this much more worth it.

Godspeed Aviators!

Yellow reapers make me go silly

Messoria

I painted a dragon figurine to look like Messoria from Naomi Noviks Temeraire series!

Hers was the smallest figurine so far and I changed the pattern a bit from the other Yellow Reaper (Immortalis) I already painted. So to make the white stripes more noticable I put them on her wings instead of her body.

Yellow reapers be like: durg dealer? Nah, hug dealer. Come here :)
