    Don't ask me why I choose that name...I thought it kinda suited it x3

    The adult Aro'kai Dragon is an powerful creature that blends in easily in it's natural home, the swamps. They would hunt almost anything but birds whom wonders past their swamp. The frills help scare off other dragons when threaten. It has no needs for wings. They breed often a lot and grows up fast. They mate for life but if one of them die, the other will find an new mate. They carry their hatchlings in their mouth when travelling in water or land. Once the hatchling gets too big for it's parent's mouths, it leaves it's home and parents and finds it's own swamp to live in and an mate. The Aro'kai Dragon are very territorial and will defend their home and family at any cost. No one knows how long they live for.

    Credit for making the adult dragon sprite goes to Losk. Credit for making hatchlings and eggs goes to Tiffashy (meh)and hatchling shading improvement goes to Losk. Credit for deeper shading on adult sprite goes to Tiffashy.

    Its still an WIP which means that there is work that needs to be done and I would need to get working on hatchlings and eggs.
    Finished them! Crits? o3o

    The fins on it's head and a part of it's tail don't appear to be shaded. The legs could also use more in depth shading as well.

    Yeah, I'll work on those but have no idea what to do with the legs.

    Edit: Edited their shading, is it better now?

    Hmm... This was saved as a JPG.... This can't be added to the site unless it's changed. Also, can you wait for admin approval before moving things to different sections? Moving this back now, along wiht Nether dragons.

    Damage on the adult was already done, I suggest taking the original sprite, and re-doing the shading, otherwise the colour-count will be massive...

    That would take a lot of work. I'm not sure if I could do the shading as well as Losk so this would take awfully a lot of time.
    Maybe you can mess around with the shading? I'm not so sure on how to do it.

    Well, what shading did you do on top of Losk's sprite? I've seen losk's sprite, it's fairly shaded, but still needs some shading doing on the fins and legs...

    *zooms into the pixels*

    Yeah, you might wanna redo those, you have photoshop or something with layers? You could just trace over your old lines and shading if you do.

    I did look up on the Gimp youtube videos an while ago, helpful but not needed.

    Lucky my stupidity didn't fail me and I worked out an way to make it don't have colour busts and stuff, added it to the first page and I checked loads of times and it still works c: (Which mean't I only did an tiny bit of extra shading and its an GIF)

    :o Awesome, they look much better.

    The shading isn't really strong on the hatchlings though, would you mind if I tweaked them a bit?

    K, I edited the shading a bit, and I smoothed the tails out a bit and tweaked the back leg. I couldn't help it. ;-;

    The adults tail just looks like part of the shading has been cut off, appart from that, it's ready!

    What rarity do you want it? How many Dragon Gems?
