I made a lindworm in #Draconia, her name is Vipera. Her coloration was slightly inspired by the Jurassic Park Dilophosaurus.

I had to take a break from working on my #smaugustcircle dragons due to my wrist getting screwed up, but now I am able to continue working on them. This is the Titan Frosthorn, a massive herbivorous dragon which can project ice magic through its horn.

If you see this, post a monster.

Here's two of the dragons I did for #smaugust, I haven't finished the others because I had to take a break. Only one Masked Nebulawyrm is known, it was found at the site of a meteor crash. Black Wreckers are feared by seafarers for their habit of sinking ships. More info in replies.

Kalraku are herbivorous monsters that can be found in herds of up to 25 individuals. Their horn is actually rather fragile and is mainly used for display, larger horns are seen as more attractive. They prefer to run from threats, but may use their tail as a weapon.

These are the Bullhunter, the Cavecreep, the Electrapede, and the Nightlurker, they are from an unnamed project of mine. A larva's true legs are held off the ground and will eventually develop into the legs and wings of the adult dragon, while the prolegs on the tail are lost.

Now onto the Greater Dragons. They are Formidable Ashlurk (it), Tempest Frostside (he), and Slavering Gutgash (she). Like the Lesser Dragons, I will go into more detail in the replies.

These are three of the Lesser Dragons of Draconica, one of my other projects. They are Severspawn (she), Silverwing (he), and Verdigris (she). I'll go into more detail about them in the replies. In Draconica, no two dragons look the same due to them being magical creatures.

One of the non-Wyrm sophont species of Talveria are the Arvog. They are hermaphroditic horned marsupials. The artwork I have here is of Dagran, who is leucistic and the protagonist of something I am working on. They are about 6 feet tall at the hip and are omnivorous.

This is a Gloaming Lamenter, sophont Wyrms created by Vengosa, Wyrmgod of Mystery. They are named for their strange calls and crepuscular nature. As many of them distrust outsiders, their society is poorly understood, but some Wyrmkillers' Societies are working on relations.

This art is old but I still like it. It is the Pallid Sufferer, a Wyrm created by Asmorium, Wyrmgod of experimentation and knowledge. It sprays blood from the tip of its neck, contact with it causes painful convulsions.

I'm not used to drawing humanoid/anthro characters, but this was good practice. They are Dahlia the Pavunodor (she/her) and Grotto the Borback (she/her). Both dragon species came from a cartoon I grew up with that has neat creature design.

This is a female Ochthu, known as Ravochthu. Like flies of the genus Dohrniphora, they use their proboscis to decapitate larger creatures, Ochthu specifically prey on dragons. I based their raptorials off of the genus Ochthera, they use them to grasp the heads of their prey.

The Bloodboiler is a Wyrm of unknown origin, it is best known for the scalding blood which bursts forth from its myriad blisters. They are unpredictable, though they aren't usually hostile.

I drew this in 2023 and will likely redraw it soon, but I am still very satisfied with it.

I've started posting my art online, and now that I'm back on here, I shall start with Wyrvask, also known as the Wyrmgod of Balance. It endlessly watches over Talveria in order to not only make sure other Wyrms are not disrupting its environment, but to make sure its people are able to thrive.
