Description I use the amazing app to color all of my pictures!

The Daggertail species is my own original creation. No one is allowed to use/draw them without my permition.


Alright! Here is the colored version of the Daggertail sketch I did a few days ago.

The Daggertail tribe is probably the most "primitive" tribe on Kotia. They share a mountain with the Snowfoot clan, and constantly raid them. After bringing captives back to their cave, they begin prepping them for a meal. Daggertails have developed a strong liking for Snowfoot meat.

They aren't the smartest bunch, and are even worse, when thinking on an empty stomach. Without their cruel and (surprisingly) cunning leader, Goldtooth, they would never had been able to join the Shadow clan in war to conquer Kotia. (or even keep order amongst themselves)

While they are quick and agile flyers, they can't fly great distances. The dagger on their tails are used in close combat for swift, unsuspected stabs. Also, their wings are razor sharp and are used for slicing foes in the air, or shielding themself on the ground. Armor like, golden scales cover their chest and back. Daggertails are fire proof, and have a high resistance to frost.

Ok. This is all I can think of right now. A bit tentive to give history because I really need to write my whole made up story sometime, and they are heavily in it.

Hope you like it! Please comment and tell me what you think.

Yep! Thanks!

They were neat! You do realize that I will be seeing them in my deviation stack, if you post them? It's fine though! The notes make it feel more personal.

Thanks!

Like you I have a whole story and world! Only thing is, I can't get myself to write like I can get myself to draw! X( But one day I will, some how...

No prob! ^^

Don't you worry! c: I used have that issue, I just couldn't get myself to write, but kept making the characters, and even had all my stories planned in mind. It took me some great motivation to finally get into (and BACK into) writing. Like, for Zelda, It took me going back and playing Majora's Mask all the way through again. I fell in love with the Deku Scrubs all over again, and suddenly, I had my drive to write back, as well as whole new stories planned! ^u^ Once you find your writing motivation and inspiration, you'll find inspiration to get those ideas out on page!

*wipes tear from eye*

Thanks, that means a lot!

I guess it's kinda like needing to get inspiration, just like drawing.

Hey, no prob ^^ the best ways are to watch old movies you haven't seen in a while, listen to some music or even pull out an old game and play through it again. Anything can work, really, but those main three are what keep my imagination whirring~!

Heheh! I don't know how to turn my imagination off!! XD seriously! Usually keeps me up for at least an hour in bed. X)

But I see your point! Now I need to turn it from drawing, to writing. (This is going to be hard)

I got to get to bed now. Good night!

Thank you! I'm so glad you like it! I really pushed myself with this one!

The scales and the lighting on his tougue are probably my favorite parts. X)

So this is a representative of the Daggertail tribe. I really need to write my stories... XD

I just realized that I haven't drawn a picture with Luca using any of his abilities EVER!! So I think I'm going to try to do one right now!
