got my hands on a new tablet. felt like drawing a self portrait. I MEAN- turtle. wings of fire. turtle from wings of fire 😁😁😁
FINALLY got around to finishing part two of the regional tribe headcanons. sorry for the delay and minimal descriptions 😰😰
also fun fact different bioluminescent scale patterns are like aquatic dialects, and it can get to a point where they may be difficult to understand or even look like another language entirely☝️🤓 krondyr out

Mudwing village
Mudwing village!!
Love mudwings and wish there were more info on them. Sadly there isn't but that does mean I get to make my own 😎
Specifically I like to imagine that mudwings in more swampy areas connect homes and shops with bridges and logs. Building mud homes around trees. Similar to barn swallows nests and how they use mud to make em. More wealthy/powerful mudwings will build large structures that span across two trees or more.
Homes are decorated with gardens, lanterns, art, etc. Many mudwing families will mark their home with a symbol or decor piece that defines it as theirs. Such as a sign with a bird talon or a fish carved into the door way. Makes it easy when giving directions to "Go past the salmon and turn at the pinecone. If you see a gator you've gone too far"
Bodies of water and mud are like mudwing highways connecting everything. Its probably the easiest kingdom to travel in without flying. Just hop in and chill down the river All in all I hope to one day see more offical mudwing kingdom art. I wanna see the pretty swamps and marshes
I think Mudwings are underrated, especially the sibling connections which I really wish Tui would touch on more. Luckily we're getting Umbers POV next so more Mudwing Lore!

more!!! adopts!!!!! dm me if interested, i can only take money thru venmo . both r open😛
I’d honestly love to see your take on fashion for all of the tribes! I always love seeing world-building in the fork of fashion!
Thank you so much!! I'm trying to branch out and tie fashion in with lore/culture - I genuinely lost the plot with this one but you have to walk with me like WALK with me right now. come here.
Scarlet and the Skywings: A discussion on fashion, politics and culture
About this image: Queen Scarlet crawls out of her own self-portrait, looking down at Tourmaline and the Skywings in fury. She does not notice the Guillotine above her or the fire below her, focused only on her daughter who looks up in defiance. The words 'Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité' are repeated in the background, and Tourmaline's wings are drawn to look like rays of sun.
Setting the scene - Skywings and the French
I won't pretend to know the Skywing kingdom inside out, but tailwind's section in guide to the tribes gives good insight to the kingdom's situation during Scarlet/Firestorm's reign. the extract suggests that the Skywing kingdom was an economically thriving center for the arts, as well as a kingdom which followed some semblance of an aristocracy with noble families and an upper/lower class divide - similar to the situation of pre-revolution France.
We must also consider the scope of how bad things actually were before/during Queen Scarlet's reign. Social class is never directly mentioned in canon, but it could easily be reasoned (from her + Queen Firestorm's behavior) that Scarlet's rule created tons of problems for the kingdom's commoner. between fighting 20 years of sandwing succession war, uprooting major cultural practices and dumping heinous amounts of money into self-portraits, it's safe to say Scarlet and her mother were probably the two worst things that could ever happen to the average working Skywing. Like this is the Queen who threw Osprey (A public figure old enough to be long loved) into a ravine for... teaching Peril the law.
Starved of kingdom funding, ripped from their culture and sent off to die in a sandwing war, I really feel that the Skywings deserved to crash out French style on their high society.
(That's not to say that I dislike the canon plot of the kingdom: in fact, I think it's good - it completes its duty as a plot device and still manages to make sense and be cool. If I was Tui, I would absolutely call it a day there. Lucky for me, I'm a tumblr artist and not a bestselling author. I get to write about violent revolutions.)
The revised timeline
Given the context on why I think the Skywings needed a good revolution, here's how I personally would've structured the timeline after Scarlet's rule, including the events of Escaping Peril. If you haven't read that book, I suggest skipping down to the next image.
Scarlet comes into power. Bad things happen to everyone. Skywings are pissed for 20 years, but between the war, economic issue and the fire demon (Peril) nobody really has the energy to revolt. They stay quietly angry, and (perhaps) form something similar to the chrysalis.
One day, the dragonets of destiny arrive - something happens in the arena and the tyrant is gone. The kingdom sits in aftershock for a moment, before springing into gleeful celebration. The real bloodbath is never for Scarlet - presumed to be dead or missing, they turn to the Skywing nobles who supported her instead. The WoF wiki states Skywings enjoy entertainment and fighting alike, so I like to think their last gritty celebration of freedom was making the (oppressive) aristocracy their last arena victims. Dragons like Tailwind (born into nobility but low-lying or unsupportive) were probably spared.
Queen Ruby is elected to be the new skywing ruler by default - some Skywings may feel hesitant or reluctant to have Scarlet's daughter in power, but tradition + scares of another sandwing-type war keep them from kicking her out. She does a great job, so it doesn't matter anyways and they love her.
Scarlet comes back in Escaping Peril, and for a brief moment the kingdom is turned upside down. Stories spread like wildfire, and the Skywing population are ignited with a new sense of rage at their old Queen's return. At this point, I don't even think Peril's presence would be able to stop riots and uprise on the streets.
Ruby challenges Scarlet and the canon ending happens, or Peril (somehow) realizes Ruby is Tourmaline another way and the fight can be avoided altogether. Instead, the nature of Tourmaline's erasure (using animus magic, changing her identity) is so offensively un-Skywing that the population snaps and jump Scarlet together, right then and there. She dies like Scar from the lion king.
Back to the fashion - high society
Plot lost, plot recovered. I will talk about fashion now - starting with that of the aristocracy (specifically during Scarlet and Firestorm's reign.)
Extravagant garments crown the nature of upper-class fashion: big bows, long dresses, feathered headpieces and fur wigs are what make you well-dressed here. Curiously, upper-class Skywing attire is not very Skywing at all: imports are in, tradition is out! The dragons of the aristocracy order pearls from the sea, pelts from the north and the finest tailors to put it together. As the sandwing succession war starts, trade deals are interrupted and these garments become rarer: more valuable.
Function and Logistics
These garments are generally viewed as unisex, with the urge to be best dressed outcompeting the urge to have gendered clothing within society. Most of them have intricate mechanical makeup, which is a landmark to the Skywings and their long history of design. Copper wires braided together are bent to form skirt cages, and headdresses are fashioned in place using a complicated network of leather bands and iron clips. Putting these outfits on would undoubtedly require a team of assistants: maids clip the headdress in place while tailors edit the radius of the skirt cage, fixing it in place with a small plume of flame. The final result is a splendorous, inconvenient piece of clothing meant to show your wealth and absolutely nothing else. I imagine that flying is near impossible with these garments (or - one can fly, at the expense of their gown) so most dressing and undressing is done within palace walls.
Queen Scarlet and her mother, obsessed with beauty, would likely uphold these garments as a uniform standard within balls and celebrations. Skywings were expected to look as best as they could, with absolutely no exceptions and a very deadly consequence for disobedience. Fashion is always, in some aspect, political; seeing this type of needless extravagance as a working-class Skywing would've undoubtedly sparked anger, and I'm sure the French revolutionaries would agree.
Clothing for the Skywings: past and present
As it tends to, the fashion of the elites will bleed into the world around it - and with the removal of their culture and tradition, the Skywings of the kingdom would most likely follow suit in how they dressed themselves - abandoning traditional garb in fear of Queen Scarlet, and adopting new fashion trends.
These trends would include simplified, practical versions of High-class clothing: petticoats and puff sleeves replace pearl necklaces, fitting in with societal expectations while still being functional. These coats could be used to store day-to-day necessities like gold coins, trinkets or herbal medicines, with the sleeves made from thinly stretched fabric. Some Skywings may choose to embroider their coats and shirts, or even wear a hat - a slightly impractical item which could be used to flaunt one's financial security. While this fashion is nice, I'm sure lots of Skywings would be old enough to remember their traditional wear: some may even have it in their home, tucked away in the attic with other relics of home.
I imagine these garments were much more fluid in shape: made to be beautiful and flyable, they consisted of long fabrics trailing down from the base of one's neck, made from local materials found on the mountain - feathers, wool, flower dyes etc. The clothes themselves were beautifully detailed through pattern, not shape: beads, embroidery and stitching could be used to create a high-class garment, which would be used during weddings or balls. Some hats may have also been present, although these would still be largely difficult to fly with. These clothes probably returned as the Skywing kingdom began to heal, alongside the old traditions buried under tyranny.
When sketching these garments, I looked to traditional Kazakh clothing for inspiration, as both cultures share their mountainous location and use of local material. I understand that Kazakh and French clothing are different fashions from wildly different cultures, and the only reason this really works is because I'm writing in the context of fictional dragon world and not real human world. I considered keeping the fashion solely French, but honestly they're both so beautiful I had to include Kazakh clothing too!
Choosing which cultures to investigate is always the hardest part about making these posts, and so I'm trying to incorporate a lot of diversity as I plan - and maybe even explore one tribe in the lens of multiple cultures.
If you made it all the way down here, thank you so much for reading along! Writing about lore and culture is SO fun, and I really appreciate all of you who've inquired about fashion/culture within the other tribes! These posts take a little bit longer to make, so I'm aiming for one a week but we'll see. To anyone interested, my art contest is still going until the end of June! If you're a regular on this blog you will have heard this too often and want to jump me, but please have mercy.

I really want winglets to have a comeback. Please please please I need my side characters I love to be expanded upon.
A piece I made for Father's Day, of my Mudwing character, Ox, and his adopted daughter, Coco!
A bit of background practice as well.

A background study with a random skywing. Transparent wings are a fancy compromise between having wings and having visible legs
friend asked how dragonet transport would work and i delivered
OGs will know, Wings of Fire is where I found my passion for making OCs and Character Designs. Because I have huge Dragon Autsim.
I still make crazy AUs and Stories with WoF dragons. Fr example these are all OCs in a TTRPG I'm in with some friends (World of Darkness) I just WoF-ified everyone. The pink guy is my character Julian. He's a nervous wreck.
THE LIST
Pink Guy- Silkwing with Nightwing Ancestry (Three Moons)

I missed doing these.
Say hello to Hvitur, man I got attached to because he was the first to die.
Headcanons:
Hvitur wears a lot of dark clothing to hide his scales. The Talon of Peace has so few IceWings and, as a war-time spy for a neutral party, Hvitur immediately stands out. When he covers up and hides his face and tail, he could pass as a really pale SandWing, and that allows him to get around mostly undetected.
He was just really sweet and helpful. Was a good friend to a lot of Talons of Peace members and took their cause very seriously.
Used to be a low ranking IceWing and served as a medic in the war before defecting because he couldn’t stand the violence, joining the Talons in their quest for peace and the end of the war.
Was very excited about the prophecy, and ecstatic when he was chosen to be one of the Guardians. Put the most work into creating a space that the dragonets could grow up comfortably and happy, even if they were living underground. The one to collect the most scrolls, blankets, and dragonet toys for them to use when they hatched.
They got the NightWing egg earlier than any other egg from Morrowseer, and Hvitur was the one to come up with the name Starflight.
Offered to get the SkyWing’s egg in place of a Kestrel when he saw Ketsrel hesitate on going back to the Sky Kingdom. Said that he’d be back before she knew it, SkyWing egg in hand. And…well. Neither him nor the egg made it back.
Tsunami!!
To be honest, i wanted to make current.... but i fucked up the color so bad it turned into tsunami?? 😭
Either way, i went ahead with it and boom
Tbh taking photos of her was hard bc it was blue bottle season along with gloomy weather
Here's some of her glow!
Edit: accidentally made her wings looked realistic (yk when wing membranes looked pinkish through the light?), idk how and why,,,, but the wind blew so hard the sculpture moved and resulting in this blurry pic but yk what i mean 😭
