Description Hey ho,
I'm selling these for 20$ per critter. I want to make a new set soon so these will sell for cheaper now - get them while your favourite is still available!

Nanda: [SOLD]
Yessu: available
Teini: [SOLD]
Rhine : [SOLD]

What are these?
They're guardians! Spiritual beings, only existing to protect yourself, your character, a building, or whatever you choose them for to protect.
They can't die, because technically, they're not alive as you and me are, though their 'lives' might end after they've served their purpose (of protecting you, for example.)
Guardians are born from oneself and the (unconsious) wish to be kept save and sound.
They're absolutely loyal, and basically come in any shape and color. They can change their appearence to whatever they like, but usually may have a certain, prefered look they will always go back to eventually.
The only consistent part about their designs are the halo and the collar, with the tiny adoreable bell attached to it.

What does the bell do?
It chimes, and keeps away evil thoughts, spirits, and people while doing so. When being strained too much as a result of the guardian pushing too hard to keep harm away, it may break (but recover by itself later)

What am I getting for my money?
All of them are at least 50% of their actual size here. You'll get the full sized drawing and the character will be yours entirely! The concept and the art remains mine, but you're free to upload the picture of your bought guardian wherever you please, just link back to my gallery, please!
You may also change the design(s) as you please, but please also state "original design by R. Führer/Lindblut"

OMG SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!
If you want to purchase one (or more!) of these, please send an e-mail to lindblut (at) googlemail (dot) com ASAP! I'm going to sell these by first comes, first served! Please have the money ready when you're contacting me.
Paypal only!

For the time being I don't plan on making more guardian designs, so this might be a one-time offer.

Again; if you want to take one, don't comment here, send me an e-mail, thank you!

A thanks to Novere for the grid pattern which I used in the background.

P.S.: even if you're not interessted, I would love to hear which one is your personal favourite!

Dang, I really like the Teini one. I may be interested in buying it once I manage to transfer some money to paypal. :3

On a side note: reading the squabble about the dragon type(s) debate was really irritating. Since when do dragons (or any fantasy creatures for that matter) need to look a certain way to be considered whatever it's intended to be? Instead of degrading people for having artistic freedom and uniqueness, people like you should be praised for your efforts. These critters don't look like traditional dragons but that's what makes them UNIQUE and INTERESTING. Just throwing in my two cents to the pile of change that collected with that conversation several months ago. xD

Anyway! Great work and I'd like to see more of these.

Lindblut In reply to Leepup [2012-05-11 17:04:15 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!
That would be great, I'm actually a little in need of money right now, but no rush!
On a side note, for some reason Teini's file has the largest resolution in comparison, around 2100 x 1500 pixels in size, idk why, it just happened when I sketched out his/her design

And I know, I understand that there are those classic dragons (eastern, western, serpent, wyvern and others) which abide to certain characteristics, but there are a lot of old 'dragon' designs which aren't looking like dragons entirely (some even look like plain, simple crocodiles), yet being labeled as such.

Clearly people have taken inspiration from other animals and started adding fur, feathers, different body- and headshapes to their dragon-design, and I do not see how this collides with them being labeled as dragons as well.
As you said, artistic freedom all the way!
Heck, I have seen abstract paintings with apparently random brushstrokes and weird shapes being called stuff like "woman", even though you can absolutely not make out any woman in the picture at all, but hey, it is art, it's okay, it wasn't meant to look like a woman, much like these new type of 'dragons' weren't meant to look like the typical dragon design.

What annoyed me about the person who started the arguement is that they treat their opinion (because that is what it is) as hard facts, even though there are more than enough people to tell them that they're wrong. But hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion, as they're entitled to be wrong

D'oh golly, sorry to hear that you're having money trouble. I'll try to help out if money permits. I'm trying to rake in commissioners right now myself so I know what it's like to want/need money and have it not come through. D:

Exactly! Good perspectives there; I like how you think. Art is really just whatever one interprets it to be. What looks like a woman to me may look like a tree to you and vice versa. It's the artistic freedom and various interpretations that make it all interesting to discuss and spawn new ideas!

Haha, I totally feel you on that. I like what you just said: "Everyone is entitled to their opinion, as they're entitled to be wrong." I really love that and I'm going to be spreading that around like wildfire; it's clever.

Nice talking to you! It's great when you can find people to roll your eyes in unison with. xD

Lindblut In reply to Leepup [2012-05-12 09:29:29 +0000 UTC]

No it's fine, it's not really money trouble, it's just that I'll get a dog soon and I needed to buy a couple of things of course, but I have everything covered now

A friend of mine once said that to another person in a comment, she always makes smart remarks like these, so I picked up on it as well! I don't usually say it though unless the other person really is sort of an idiot about their points of view. It's very belitteling, and if someone is reasonable and has good points (even though I dnot agree with their opinion) I don't say such a thing, but if they just stomp their feed and claim to know more even though obviously they don't, then they sort of deserve to be belittled haha.

You can joke and have fun a lot, but it does not make your point of view correct. My research concerns the dragon as a modern multicultural and psychological reality of the XX and XXI century. There is a boundary between the dragon and what looks like a dragon. Between the fluffy dragon and a winged creature, like a dog. In the scaly dragon and serpent. Between the dragon with feathers and a griffin. Today there is a tendency that young artists are mixed with other animals, the dragon, that they like. It is predictable if you know psychology. However, mixing contains very little dragon.

If you draw a brick and say that this is the dragon, the people you would not believe. You can say ten times, it's a dragon. The situation will not change. In the dragon, there are certain boundaries. They change with time, but slowly. You need to pass over a decade. And what is now the dragon can call any object regardless of whether it is a dragon, does not affect this. Why do you want to call this creature, like a dog (I do not know a more exact English word), it is a dragon?

P.S. If my English is broken, I ask forgiveness. I use a translator Google.

Alister-Murkerry In reply to Alister-Murkerry [2012-02-07 10:52:31 +0000 UTC]

Any of you now saying the phrase "I want to make it so." But you must understand that your desire does not match the facts. That is what I'm talking about. You can say "I do not like these facts," and you can believe that fiction does not have its own laws and can be a very broken and still beautiful.

I'm not arrogant. I am looking into a dragon in the form in which it exists now. I do not believe it. I take the facts and look at them. For me you are the guinea pigs in order to understand the human response to a violation of his faith in this area. But your reaction is dull and predictable. It is the same as any other reaction, when there is a vague term, and the desire to believe. For example, it refers to the word "race" in science fiction. There, the word "race" used instead of "civilization", "species", "culture" or "type of mind." It's simple. People are uneducated and use vague words, believing that others will read their thoughts and understand everything correctly. Of course, they make mistakes, saying the word "race" (ie "subspecies") instead of other words.

So I carefully look at the case where the word "dragon" is applied to the substance, which is beyond the scope of the definition of "dragon". This definition is broad, it allows for different options, but still retains a dragon. At the beginning of our discussion, I asked why these creatures, which have many lines of Canidae, associated with the dragon (because the deviation was sent to the group, which focuses only on the dragon). That was my question. And I got the answer that my knowledge is predicted. This makes the prospect Future of sad. The point is not to limit the imagination. The point is to use the brain to properly and effectively. A good imagination to avoid mistakes. Good science fiction is more like physics or mathematics. That's why I said that there is a difference between fiction and error.

I hope you understand my point of view.

Wow what, I'm a guinea pig now?
And you claim to be not arrogant? Seriously? You're looking down on me, obviously

Well guess what, the deviation got accepted to dragon-artists because the admins of dragon-artists think these qualify as dragons.
It doesn't matter what you think, at all. Your opinion is invalid, anyway.

You have absolutely no clue about the varity about dragons.

For you, a dragon needs to have (bat)wings and scales, spines and a reptilian look. Good, but this is your personal opinion, nothing more and nothing less, and it certainly is not -the- ultimatum to a dragon design.

Not every type of dragon looks like that. There are wingless dragon types, like asian dragons, and dragon types which do not look much like greneric dragons at all (like the Tatzelwurm).
These are all dragons;

I think you are uneducated. Study harder, you don't know enough about dragons yet to stand ground in this arguement.

And there is no error in fiction. Fiction is fiction. So it can be anything.

I'm going to ban you, I'm sick of having to deal with your otherkin-retardness. You are not a dragon, dragons don't excist and just because you think something does not look like a dragon doesn't mean it's not.

P.S.: you have no clue about human psychology either.

Have a good day.

Mal ehrlich ich hab keinen Bock auf so nen Mist, soll er die Drachen doch einfach Drachen sein lassen. Aber auf Wikipedia gibt es glücklicherweise schöne Beispiele wie manche so aussehen. Außerdem... guck dir Fuchur aus die unendliche Geschichte an. Ich dacht früher immer das wär ein fliegender Hund Argh... regt mich das wieder auf... XD"
Du hast da ne ziemlich hübsche DRACHENrasse^^ Der Bunte gefällt mir obwohl ich das normalerweise nicht so mit bunt schillerndem Gedöns hab. Mein Liebling wäre Nanda, weil er so schön kräftig und majestätisch aussieht. was mir bei die immer auffällt ist, das selbst deine unschattierten Bilder unheimlich interessant wirken, das schaffen nicht viele. Ich denk mal das liegt an der Linienführung.

So ne Nervensäge. Ich hab die ganz schnell geblock'd weil ich hab schon gemerkt die is total Drachen-gaga und mit der kann man sich nicht gescheit unterhalten.
Hab keinen Bock mehr auf so Leute daher block ich die meistens recht schnell. Ich brauch echt keine Kommentatoren die daher kommen nur um mit mir n Streit vom Zaun zu brechen über ihre Moralien, egal, worum es dabei geht. Wenn der/die nichts gescheites übers Bild zu sagen hat, sondern nur mit persönlicher Meinung um sich wirft dann 'Tschüss' lol

Danke!
Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob man diese 4 als Drachen bezeichnen kann, aber wieso eigentlich nicht *shrug*

Und ja Fuchur
Oder Tabaluga, der sieht auch nicht wie ein typischer Drache aus.
Ich finds Hammer, dass die echt hier umgeht und überall ihren Senf dazu gibt mit der begrpündung, sie studiere ja das psychologische Verhalten der Leute die behaupten Drachen zu malen obwohls (ihrer Ansicht nach) keine sind.

Psychologie.... aha o__o
Ja blocken ist da wohl am besten.. hoffe die gibt jetzt mal einfach Ruhe XD
Nja also darüber hat ja jeder ne andere Meinung was ein Drache ist und was nicht. Ich hab da immer den Maßstab, dass ich allein vom Umriss des Wesens her beurteile obs n Drache ist oder nicht. Es gibt sogar die umgekehrte Variante^^
Wo eine Zeichnerin Kreaturen hatte die aussehen wie Drachen aber keine sind. Ist ja auch eigentlich jedem selbst überlassen. Aber umherzugehen und zu sagen "das ist aber kein so uns so!" ist einfach nur nervig... Vor allem da diese Person kaum was anderes macht.

Erstmal das, aber dann textet die einen noch mit irgendnem Scheiß über Psychologie und Wissenschaft über Drachen zu... Da frag ich mich doch ernsthaft ob die nicht irgendwie Langeweile hat? Ich mein isn interessantes Thema aber es sind Fantasiewesen, daher gibt es keine endgültige Wissenschaft über Drachen, weil sie einfach nicht im realen Leben existieren. Somit muss sich jeder selbst seinen Senf denken. Also kann man niemandem "vorschreiben" wie etwas auszusehen hat, das sich ein anderer ausgedacht hat. Sie tut so als besäße sie das Copyright für den Begriff Drache. Oder sie trollt nur wegen der Aufmerksamkeit und damit hab ich bei der wohl den wunden Punkt getroffen

chill man, the cool thing about fantasy and fiction is... well, it's fantasy. it's not real, neither are dragons.

in mythological terms dragons are indeed portrayed reptilian, mainly of serpentine nature, posess a pair of wings and a strong pair of claws. but we're not talking about world's mythology here, we're talking about the artist's freedom to portray anything they want as anything. if they decide to call these a dragon, so be it. even if they called a brick a dragon, so be it, it's their fantasy. in fantasy, you can do anything you want without limits.

when i was little the teachers in my school called our crest animal a panther.
[link]
generally, panthers in heraldry... look absolutely nothing like panthers.
but it's an artistic depiction and that is the term it is referred to. realistically, this doesn't make sense, but it is how it is because someone decided they're called panthers.
(i know nothing about heraldry though lol)

what i mean to say is fantasy is an open playground without realistic boundaries.

You are very arrogant. You leave no comments of value, all you do is insult other artists by saying "baww you draw dragons wrong!!"
You got nothing useleful to say aboout this picture other than "I do not like the way you draw dragons" - I get it, you can leave now. If these designs aren't appealing to you, so may it be. I don't care, there are enough people who enjoy them.

"You can say ten times, it's a dragon."

i don't get it...no one here insisted they were dragons, traditional, modern, or otherwise... no one here even said the word "dragon" until you did...

if you're bothered about this deviation getting featured in the #DragonArtists group, then i'm sorry, your botheredness and your constricted views on fantasy creatures isn't really the artist's problem. you know, any random person could've been responsible for it being added and you'd be better off taking up their egregious error with them. but since you could likely go to your grave never having learned just who the perpetrator was, it may help to stop and think to yourself, "hm...does it really matter that much

I know all types of dragons that now exist. My job is to explore contemporary art. And I know where the boundary between fiction and error. A set of lines that have these things, tells us that this creature as a dog with the addition of wings of a bird. Only Rhine has a few lines that make it closer to the dragon. But he does not cross the border.
