More drawings wooooo!
I love Ninjago dragons. Well, I love dragons in general, but Shintaran Ridgebacks are especially lovely ^u^ I like to think that their ability to grow and shrink is a magical defensive strategy. They remain the same maturity in either form, but the two forms offer different benefits. Want to become hard to detect, walk through smaller spaces, and appear less threatening? Small form is perfect for that. Need to protect yourself or loved ones, require more strength in general, and need to fly farther distances? Large form it is! They have natural armor in either form, and warm feathers layered over long, adapted finger bones, a bit like Ambopteryx or something between a bird or bat. In either form, Chompy is beloved by Vania!
