#smaugust #smaugustcircle Day 11: Devonian
This creature belongs to a group of dolusdracoform dragons which only kept one pair of limbs and often took to the water. Its species is euryhaline, meaning it can live both in freshwater and in saltwater. Despite its intimidating (1/3)

#smaugust #smaugustcircle Day 8 & 9: Mineral + Salt Water
Here we have another Dragon Mania Legends redesign, the Jade Devil. Due to its jade-inspiration and its aquatic features, I found it fitting to be a combination of the two prompts Mineral and Salt Water. I imagine (1/2)

#smaugust #smaugustcircle Day 7 & 10: Corpse + Rival
An older and a younger male of this herbivorous, novadracoform dragon species got into a fight for dominance during the mating season. Usually, these battles are more of a pushing contest, but this time, the younger, (1/3)

#smaugust #smaugustcircle Day 6: Coil
One might make the mistake to think that this is a single organism. However, it is actually a so called "coil" of many members of a diumvermian dragon species. These dragons eat, sleep, move and hunt together as a coil. The coil

I am feeling quite sick still, so I have decided to take a break for today. Todays prompt is "corpse," which I may revisit later, but for now, check out this dragon I did last year that still fits todays theme. 😁
A spooky dragon fitting for the season #dragon #smaugust #creaturedesign

#smaugust2025 #smaugustcircle Day 5: Dancer
Males of this novadracoform dragon species possess long display features on the jaw and tail and an even larger veil-like membrane than females. They show these off during elaborate breaching maneuvers during the mating season. (1/4)

For today, I took another crack at redesigning a dragon from Dragon Mania Legends, the Geyser Dragon.
I imagine it spending a considerable time in water and being rather resistant to all kinds of poor water quality. Like hippos, it is (1/2)

#smaugustcircle Day 3: Bell
This darty flier is a dragon which specializes in feeding on nectar and fruit. It spends most of its life on the wing and is able to fly in place for a short time in order to sip on flower nectar. Even difficult to reach places like the pictured (1/3)

Here we have Smaugust Day 2: Whistle. #SmaugustCircle
This small dragon is found at coasts and on beaches, sifting through tide pools and sand, looking for food. It's sensitive beak is great at finding and filtering out all kinds of small prey. These dragons live and forage in groups. (1/4)

Starting off Smaugust 2025 with Day 1: Shaggy. Due to time constraints, I'll most likely do pencil drawings for most of the prompts.

This two-headed dragon is an insectivore and mostly consumes large termites. Two tongues, double the termite intake. (1/5)

With the next Smaugust around the corner, I wanted to do another fanart for my friend @aurumdrake.bsky.social as 2024's Smaugust was the reason we started chatting. We'll both participate again this year and I'm very excited!

Here we have three members of the dragon clade Neotedraca, an ancient group characterized by several neotenous and more primitive features. Their six-limbed, two-winged bodyplan links them to now extinct prehistoric dragons. Further typical of Neotedraca are small body sizes, a fur-like (1/2)
