Hi!! 🐉 I'm Verri, a fantasy artist that specializes in dragons and fantasy character design, adoptables and references. I can be found most actively on BTACD, Discord, and deviantART, but can be found on any of these socials as well. Find my links below!

A design for the Silent Song western dragoness, Iskarya, in both summer and winter colors. A very detailed reference for btacdragons.com. A design for Valdemar, an Iridian Skies dragon. A detailed reference for btacdragons.com. A doodle design of the Aethyrian Toxina poison dragon Bordel. For a member of btacdragons.com.

Hey, instead of yelling at people about not using Alt text, if it's really important with you, post the alt text in comments.

Accessibility is important, yes, but let's not forget that people have different levels of energy to provide them.

It is not always malicious intent.
spikermonster.bsky.social Spike R. Monster @spikermonster.bsky.social · 2d
i think the accessibility features on bluesky are great but because i don't use the platform often, i always forget they're there. whenever i post my art, i post the same thing on all my socials at the same time, so it's a lot of copypasting.
a screenshot of a bluesky interaction. the first post is by bluesky user spikermonster posting a drawing he made of an adult lydia deetz from the beetlejuice cartoon, wearing a victorian vampire outfit. the caption says "of the palette variations i made i think this one might be my favorite." the palette has lydia in teal lighting in front of four gothic windows showing a purple night sky. the second post is by bluesky user kimifw simply quoting a post by jnxouaquaga which reads "How are you *still* not using alt text Is it a blatant "fuck you"? Advertising "I am a dickhead and cannot be forced to care"? Bc it sure seems like it." this user has been leaving this quote on several random posts from what it seems. spikermonster replies: "i’m really not used to using bluesky yet, sorry. i don’t spend much time on here and i’m usually in a hurry, plus describing my own work just feels very strange to me so i get stuck trying to think of how to do it."

Remember: USE YOUR REFERENCES! And don't reference others' artwork (unless it's a tutorial made specifically for teaching, and even then combine it with references) because you will end up repeating their mistakes.

Artists never stop learning. Keep working at it, use those refs, do studies!!
lodrawsfilth.bsky.social Lo 🎨🔞 @lodrawsfilth.bsky.social · 3d
Share your knowledge if/when you can. Teaching other people how to do what you do doesn’t lessen your art - it just means more and better art for everyone.

I appreciate when people are willing to tell me about their brushes, how they study, etc… I want to put that back out into the world.

Completed an off-base design commission of a lineless dragon I’d done a while back! This is an Aethyrian snow sub-element dragon - a rare Glacia hybrid with an Umbra parent!

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are sitting at a little bonfire, gazing restfully into the flickering flames. Blue: Do you ever think of the ways your life could've gone differently? Green: No. Blue: Like if you could start over with everything that you know now? Green: Nope. The odds of finding you again in the right place at the right time are way too low. Blue: You'd rather have me than a new chance? Green: Having you is the best possible life.

I finally made a brand-new updated elemental wheel for Aethyr with its new balances!! Based around the 'cores' the gods crafted their magics with; read about it here:
btacdragons.com/species/aeth...

#elements #elemental #magic #wheel #magicsystem #btacd #btacdragons #aethyr #aethyrian #rpg #pbprpg
A wheel describing all of Aethyr's elements and their balances. Balancing info here: The first four elements created - Luxia (light), Umbra (shadow), Aeria (wind) and Aurata (metal) - were formed of cores that served as opposites. Light to balance darkness, and wind to balance metal. However, both Celestial Gods turned their focus to a different type of balance after these, and the next resulting five pairs were crafted of similar cores. The cores of Ignia and Anima are known as 'flare' cores; that of Aquaria and Sanguia were liquid cores; Glacia and Chrona were formed of 'cold' cores; Natura and Toxina share a 'life' core; and both Voltia and Phobia share a 'shock' core.

Now with his bio! <3

#btacd #btacdragons #phobia #fear #dragon #aethyr #aethyrian #rpg #arpg #pbprpg
One of the oldest of the Keepers, Skraem is a heavily scarred, blinded Aethyrian dragon with the element of Phobia; his element is the bright, bloody scarlet of the markings on his face, a vibrant hue not found anywhere else on his body. It's said that when he was younger, he could hypnotize prey by using a mixture of his magic and the effect of his markings, so long as his victim was staring into his unblinking eyes. However, since losing his sight, he has all but lost this ability. His disorienting, fear-inducing breath is still something to behold, and despite its fearsome nature, he is a very calm and quiet dragon. Skraem is also one of the few Elder Keepers who has no noble blood whatsoever. He looks with disappointment upon Phobia's current Imperial House, as his cautions are nearly always ignored. His Herald is a severe and stern male named Nymare (NPC), and his Apprentice is a younger female named Lull (NPC).

Apparently Carina has been once again commissioning artists to copy this one specific soleiwing (a Wings of Fire fantribe) design...

(blocked out one at artist's request)

#charactertheft #octheft #theft #arttheft #aethyr #aethyrian #honorbound #tlos #arpg #carina #ayland #carinaayland
Original Soleiwing design Carina has repeatedly stolen. All of the attempts. #1, #3, #4 and #5 are Carina commissioning other artists with pointed instructions to copy the og design or redesign off of a copy; #2 is her own attempt. (#3 removed due to artist's request at not wanting to be involved in this sort of callout, but it is the same MO of Carina's)
