Smaugust 2026 Prompt List

I'm going to take up the mantle and try to create a dragon every day for this year's DragonCon.

It has been a few years since I made a dedicated space for creating dragons and I miss concepting new shapes and ideas. Does that mean I will 100% be able to complete each dragon every day, no. There may be days where my energy is too low and I have to respect the limitations of my body, plus I want to keep this fun and not stress. And if anyone wishes to join in, feel free to use my list. Share your dragons! And remember this is for fun. Stop whenever, or just share the pieces you love, or follow along to see the flight of dragons!

Day 1 : Sharp

For the first day of Smaugust2026, here is the Snap-Sickle. Don't expect too many descriptions this month—I'm a bit swamped—but I'll try to include as many as possible! >:3

Day 1: sharp

I’ve been waiting for an opportunity do present my dragon designs and you know what this is it!!

These dragons will feature in future work and writing.

For my first page on Smaugust2026 I give you the Mirror Cleaver, this dragon can only be found within the deep caverns of the hidden world, and is an extremely efficient and malicious predator.

It has many given names, the most prominent being the Glass Serpent, due to its very reflective and translucent skin. And the specialised mist it can produce with petrifying capabilities.

It diets on primarily fish, but has a malicious hunger for other dragons. Using its many sharp features to lay in waiting and hunt.

These dragons are so far known to be untrainable by neither man nor trolls.

The month of Smaugust is upon us.

Random head design... he's got hmm scales or plates behind his ear. I dont know why I just liked how it looked...so perhaps he has really great hearing.

Not sure I'll be doing a daily drawing.

16.5 x 15cm ink drawing on brown paper. Took about 5 hours.

smaugust 2026 day 1!

@pencilcat 's prompt list had Smaug himself as the first prompt so I had to do the Smaug of my childhood, the Rankin and Bass 70's animate Hobbit version! Love this guy. Very different style from my usual so quite the challenge (can't believe I've never drawn him before considering the impact he had on my psyche from age three) but I'm happy with how this turned out as a stylistic compromise
