Maybe dragon Tyrande. With the horns of the blackbuck, this time.

Just realizing that I havn't shared any of my Tyrande concepts so here you go c:

Also Blackbuck horns look soo cool if i dont use them for Tyrande im def using them as inspiration for someone else.

#world of warcraft #tyrande whisperwind #dragon au #so like im thinking ofc she has a long slinder face and maybe curly horns similiar to her bow and nelf decor #and i want to give her like pretty glowing wings like her owl friend #but i just havnt drawn something that i look at and think THATS IT THATS THE DESIGN #i DO want to draw a more fucked up version of her to represent her night warrior form

[druidonity2]

Since the moment Faerin Lothar was datamined i've seen alot of 'OoHh aNDUIN'S FUTURE WIFE????' and as annoying as that is you know what?? Ill accept it if he takes her last name.

#Anduin stealing Anduin Lothar's full name would be fucking hilarious #anyway i don tknow anything about her but her taelia and tess should all go make out or something #why is Anduin always paired with lesbians

[druidonity2]

Find it really funny how twitter is like 'Anduin's new model is FINALLY GOOD!!!WHOOO!!' and Tumblr still thinks hes ugly as all hell.

#personally i think...i feel like his armor should be a bit more weathered #he kinda looks like if you took a wet wipe to his face you could recover his baby face #its fine. i didn't expect much else tbh #tHAT SAID I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE DAY HE GETS TO WEAR DIFFERENT CLOTHES #of course you feel like shit you wear pLATE EVERY FUCKING DAY my dude #tww spoilers

[druidonity2]

only throne he needs tbh

Dagran and his cousin Andy c:

#world of warcraft #anduin wrynn #dagran thaurissan II #they were totally really close until Anduin kept dissappearing or was distracted by war and Dagran misses hanging out and #i imagine after returning from Pandaria Anduin told Dagran all about it and promised to show him the places from his stories one day #And Dagran all these years later makes sure Anduin remembers his promise #Blizzard forggetting to write Dagran as he grew up means i can fill in all the gaps #the war within #tww spoilers

hold on one change

Dragon sylvanas is amazing. Please, if you can, make more of she.

Thank you!! <3 Of course I will! In fact heres somemore right here :D

A second take on her design. Still needs work but Its heading in the right direction now.

#dunno what i was thinking before #looks more like the chainmail worn by horses #dragon au #sylvanas windrunner

the black hole born from the death of a sun.

#world of warcraft #anduin wrynn #two ways to look at this #Zovaal reaching to consume the last light of Anduin's soul before oblivion #or Anduin reaching into himself searching for the inner light/hope he needs to survive Zovaal #I suppose both are taking place at the same time

Dragon Sylvanas concepts

#world of warcraft #sylvanas windrunner #dragon au #dragon #im gonna give her a better design better then just a straight skeleton but first what if she had banshee wings #still dunno what she was in life but i based her colors on her post shadowlands and the forsaken crest

I've completed MoP Anduin and you can download him here!

He's not perfect but for my first shimeji I think he's really cute. I want to do Wrathion next, but also like...ya know a battle pet would make a great shimeji, and Cinder Kitten has a really cute and simple design...

okay but hear me out

they sit togefer

#world of warcraft #anduin wrynn

[druidonity2]

YOOOOO HE LOOKS AWESOME!! And the pose he's in while diamond????? Love it!! <3

Decided to join @druidonity2 ‘s Dragon AU :)

I was thinking of which character I could do and eventually decided to do Magni!

Really fun to do, I hope I’ll be able to do more characters soon <3

#Imaginging a little whelp anduin in the corner looking up at magni in 'oh no' awe like in that offical cata art #world of warcraft #magni bronzebeard #dragon au #dragons #dragon

[druidonity2]

okay but hear me out

they sit togefer

#world of warcraft #anduin wrynn #wrathion #wranduin #shimeji #this is a test their art will probably look nicer #if i work on this more which i really want to

[druidonity2]

I'd love to take part to your dragon au honestly cuz it's such a fun concept!!! Alas, I have no idea which character I could do (brain freezing when trying to make a choice)

So are there any characters you have no idea for yet, or think could have a cool concept???👀

Oh you can do anyone you want!!! Even characters I've done already. Actually I'd love to see other people's takes on a dragon Anduin because as much as I like mine I don't feel as confident in it as Thrall or Valeera's design. Like...would you have known it was him if I didn't tell you? He's one of those characters that could be alot of different things. Years ago I drew him as the albino drake (the mount whose only lore is we don't know what flight it's from). I could probably redesign Shadowreaper but base it on the Voidwing mount??

Hmm I mentioned Velen before. A Rexxar fan said Rexxar would be a green dragon and that'd be pretty cool, draw him with his animal companions. I know Sylvanas would be undead but I'm not sure what she'd be when she was living, and its probably helpful to figure that out before designing what she looks like dead. I'm not sure what Arthas would be but maybe Invincible would be neat to use for design inspiration.

Alternatively you could even ask the question what race the dragons would be in this AU since they'd be born as mortals and can't pick a visage. like idunno I just picture Alexstrasza as a Tauren. Nozdormu as a wise old troll.

#my ideas are your ideas! free for anyone to use!! <3

[druidonity2]

OH May I ask what your headcanon dragon species are for each playable race? Or do you feel they differ? :0

Oooh okay uhh I have a few thoughts...

Considering my goal with this AU is mostly just to have fun and practice drawing/designing dragons, I havn’t really thought tooo hard about any serious headcanons for a dragon au, buuttt so far I do think i’ve realized a few things.

I’ve been approaching this less race by race and more individual character, where i take into account what flight the character has story with, what flight closely matches their powers, and just what colors that character shares design wise. (and then there are the two sen’dorei dragons based solely on mobs related to the race)

Wrynns, and stormwindians in general, i think of more as onyxian black dragons, because of their story being tied so closely. (it also makes it easy to flip their story, in that Onyxia is a cultist human who kills Varian’s mate and eggs and attempts to corrupt the only surviving whelp. Ive thought alot about this.)

Kal’dorei are very often green dragons, and for some reason I picture them all with long thin faces like alligators or crocodiles. 

Thrall is easily the black dragon aspect, but I had to ask a lot of people what they thought Baine was and I decided hes half black half green, but i’ve seen people go for red. Its funny how some characters are obvious (Jaina, blue) while others everyone says something different. Vol’jin is also one i’ve seen lots of differing answers on. 

Valeera i suppose is a red dragon with fel influence, but i didn't decide that until AFTER i drew her. I try to keep them recognizable, so I try not to switch their colors up to fit a certain flight if it doesn’t work. Im thinking about characters like Velen and I saw someone say a bronze dragon, and i can’t help but picture this old wise Crystalline-infused bronze with purple accents and like….ooh he’d look so cool. But he’d also be majority bronze in color? Maybe he should be stone drake…or like netherwing dragons just match dreanei so well. 

I’ve noticed of all flights the Bronze are the hardest to match characters too. I also want to draw someone as a fey dragon but I can't think of who would work well as one. 

Also something I think is interesting about this au is how it changes family dynamics. Like…Thrall, Baine, and Anduin are all black dragons. Do they have a closer relationship than canon, in which they view each other more akin to brothers? Looking at the Maw storyline again but this time Thrall and Baine have to rescue their brother, not just a friend. This time they're part of a flight known to be easily corruptable, how does that change things?

I feel like this dragon au is a gold mine and I hope other artists and writers join me in it cuz like....there is so much potential.

#long answer but i have SO MANY THOUGHTS and nO ONE HAS ASKED YET #THANK YOU
