woot. Finally uploaded it.

Don't be mistaken by the metallic scales: on Tymaera metallic doesn't ='good' and chromatic doesn't mean 'evil'... (that tends to be governed more by Bloodline or individual leanings) Tymaeran dragons angle more toward 'lawful' and 'chaotic' respectively ... it just means this guy's probably not going to randomly bite your head off for the fun of it (unless you give him a good reason to). And he wouldn't feel sorry for you if he did - gold dragons are notoriously up their own arses about other species being inferior to dragons (rather like reds, but with better tempers).

The purple eye... besides it being a nice complement to the gold (so I thought :D), there's another reason - the typical breath weapon of Tymaeran gold dragons is a kind of supercharged liquid potassium (which you may remember from chemistry lessons at school ignites in air and burns with a luvverly purple colour) so purple seemed to make sense.



This one comes up lovely as a print, btw :D ... (not that I'm dropping hints about buying 'em or anything, it's just my local printer did an awesome job with some copies I'm gonna take to Dragon*con).

Hot afternoons, we'd climb onto the neighbors house.
Breathed deep and jumped into a waiting sky.
Our bare feet were framed on the horizon.
I felt the future in your eyes.

99% of the teenage population thinks that raver kids and rivetheads are weird, but if you are part of the 1% that would love fucking to techno music, copy and paste this into your sig.

I'm mesmerized by the anatomy alone. I still can't pull off that much detail in my dragons let alone the coloring. The idea of golds being more worried about order then virtue is a really appealing concept. Guess paladins are in short supply in your world =D.

It's not that I don't like society, It's that I've been forced to live out side of it due to the over whelming force of: conservatives, conformists, liberals, republicans, democrats, enviromentalists, terrorists, right wingers, religous zealots, media...
