Description The PearlBlood are a sky dwelling race. Each offspring is born with a pair of wings, though it takes time to use them. These are the cousins of the mostly ground dwelling creatures: the Skahti, and the LockJaw Raptors.
The PearlBlood get their name from the density of their blood: a warm pearl-like milky substance that dries transparent but with a pearly finish. It is know that some ancient temples that have been noted, on the planet in which the PearlBlood live (Yentawah), to have the blood of these creatures as a royal wood finish. Though killing these creatures is a lot of effort, and Kings would usually lose their entire military fleets to these creatures. So it is a sign of great strength and fortune to have the blood of the PearlBlood at hand. Some often say that drinking the blood gives the drinker enhanced knowledge. Though the only known people who have drank the blood, crated unconceivable forms of transportation and taken off to never be seen again.
This particular PearlBlood is a small female. The only difference between the two sexes is the color of the visible body (usually males have a darker more greener color, and fuller feathered manes). Her large back feet are used for perching, and snatching pray while still in flight. Though they can be proven difficult when trying to land (as can be seen in the picture). They are not very good runners.
When reached a certain speed a PearlBlood can morph into a highbred. Their morphed appearance is determined by the power of their mind, body, and spirit. Most often their color turns into the glossy colorful white texture of their pearl-like blood.
This female’s name is Beju. She is a runt in a litter of five; three girls and two boys. Her family pack lives far from the Sky Castle (the PearlBlood royal dwelling- a large white floating castle located in the skies of Yentawah). She has been playing in the storms (a favorite past time of all three races: PearlBloods, Lockjaw Raptors, and Skahtis), and is at the moment of landing.

Ahh, it seems you are as inclined to create wonderful and uniquely defined races as your cousin . I love the face and muzzle - it really makes it stand out against other dragon-like races for me. The ethereal quality of the wings and the beautiful colours mixed in with the grey of the storm really adds a magical touch to the image. I find the pose a little awkward, but in a way, it really adds to the otherworldly quality of the composition. Beautifully done

Yes, I love awkward poses, they are unique. Yes, Ali and I have been drawing together for years, I just haven't gotten my DevArt acount up to date in a while.

I reallylove the highlighting and shading of the muscle-tone, as well as the overall design, it has so much depth and life to it.

So much action in this image. You can see the urgency in the creature's movements, and the powerful straining of its muscles as he readies himself for flight.

This is one impressive picture. I love the way you did the water on the wings, and dripping off the ends like that. The creature itself looks very powerful.

I love how you did the PearlBlood's pose! The translucent wings are truly amazing too. And I love how you did the lightning bolts behind her. Splendid work, indeed! I thought she was in a cantering position, but then I read your description and realized that it was only landing. Y'know when I first saw her, I recognized something very familiar about the creature's anatomy. Then when you mentioned the Lockjaw Raptors... and I was quickly reminded that this PearlBlood had a very similar body structure of a Lockjaw. I figured that you and are friends, am I right?

FoxLogic In reply to Mirage-Leopard [2004-11-28 07:34:16 +0000 UTC]

lol. Allison and I are cousins. The pearlbloods were made three years after the lockjaws, I just don't draw them nearly as much anymore. She tried to coax me back into drawing them a while ago:

Beju's Storm is my delayed reaction.
But yeah, the fact that we are cousins contributs to the similar styles. If you compaire our galleries you would see that our beasties are VERY similar is structure.
Thank you for the comment.
