“The Queen’s Fury”

I normally don’t post finished art here unless it’s canon fan art, but WeirdHyenas has been such a huge influence to me since before I started the Skylanders Dragons project. I had followed her blog for a little while but never really read into it. A couple months ago I decided to go all the way to the beginning and read her blog from there. Doing that alone had reawakened my love for Skylanders as it had died down since I went on my trip to England to visit my fiance. Not only that but her character development and the creation of the Kuros and their history inspired me to work on my own universe with my dragons like I should have done so long ago. They had just been sitting there with character bios and not being fleshed out at all. Now I’m doodling them more often and building up their personalities and it’s a lot of fun! Along with a few other artists Weird has had a huge influence on my art, though not shown through my art visually but the meaning behind it, the drive to continue to do what I do.
It was her work that inspired me to do the Skylander Dragon project, and to be honest I shouldn’t have let the comments on DA get to me so bad. What with my history with my family and deviantart I’m very easily discouraged if I receive comments like those. It makes it so hard for me to keep drawing the subjects I enjoy drawing. I’ll be happy to say I won’t let it stop me anymore, even if I don’t really feel like drawing much Skylander stuff at the moment, you can bet your butts I’ll do it again.

so here’s a little something that I hope you’ll like ;u;. I tried to keep it with the Skylander style I was doing for the t-shirts and I hope you like it! Keep on being awesome!

Big shout out to the lovely deviant artists who had my back, especially A7X-Sparx and WeirdHyenas.

OOC : *incoherent screeching noises*

OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS, LOOK AT THIS PRETTINESS! FEUR LOOKS SO MAEEEEED ;U; Oh the noises I just made, good thing kurt’s listening to his music loud because I made some borderline demonic noises of glee. Omg, this is just so beautiful, I have a new background for my phone!

The comments, too, I feel you hon. I grew up with a mother who liked to tell people I drew ponies and kittens (literally) while I’d actually be drawing dragon like wolves fighting and taring each other’s throats out. She, to this day, will be ‘so proud’ of the art I do, yet still tell me that she ‘wished I got a real job and kept art as a hobby’. This woman made me so self concious, poking fun at me to be more aware of what other people saw me and how I came off. Appearance was important to her, physically and personality wise, and welp that made me so scared of people and what they think of me. If it wasn’t for my husband, Kurt, his badass-I’ll-kick-your-teeth-in-if-you-talk-down-about-how-different-we-are irish family, and my amazing friends I’ve met online… I’d be living in constant fear underneath my desk. It’s because of everyone I’ve tried to beat my anxieties, even though I’m still very introverted and struggle with said anxieties.

I was doing the same thing, even though I thought I had beaten that part of me that was afraid to draw what I wanted to draw. I drew Skylanders despite the LoS toxicity towards it, a toxicity that I won’t lie I was a part of for a time, and thought I was strong for doing so. And yet… I let the fandom make me discouraged to draw anything LoS related or FD related. I was still letting them control how I felt, and I too feel shame for it. But at the same time, I’m so very happy to hear Azul that you aren’t letting them get to you anymore! I love your work no matter what you draw, it’s utterly beautiful, and I can’t wait to see more, and holy SHIT I feel so freakn honored you went through all that hard work to read the blog, AND draw fanart. I just… fuuuuuuuuuuUUUUH THE FEELS MAN, THE FEELS ;U;

Thank you, hon. Thank you so very, very much.I really cant wait to see more of your purdy purdy artsies ;u; Funny, how you would post this today, when I just so happened to have gotten a thing in the mail >u>

Lost Queen : After Raigur’Ja’s passing, I spent more and more time dedicating myself on becoming Queen. I had little interest in lovers, and that carried on when I finally did become Queen. But, for different reasons. The way Kurogh and I worked, I was better at handling alliances, proposals, organizing events, all the inner workings of the kingdom while Kurogh was a brilliant war strategist, therefor he handled almost all of the warfare. It was heavily imbalanced, it left me with so much work I barely had any time to add in my thoughts on war, and it only got worse when I had Voteil and Malefor came to us. 

However, Kurogh had many lovers. Thank the Spirits, because it gave me less time to have to deal with him. One thing I didn’t like, however, was his taste for the snake workers. Kurogh had a thing for naga women, but they didn’t have a thing for him. Many times I had to remind him of his honor when ‘teasing’ the women. One female… Dolly, I think her name was, once broke a vase on his snout in refusal to him, the ONLY naga to ever do that to Kurogh. He was about to snap her neck when I stepped in. Honestly I was impressed by Dolly’s boldness, I liked her. 

This is a crack pairing, not canon!

askgrimcreeper is once again to blame for these, as she originally crack shipped Chef Pepper Jack with the Queen. At first I didn’t care much for it, but she has this uncanny way of winning me over with ships x,D And boy o’ boy did she win me over with this one. Of course, it’s still a total crack ship, not canon, and the babies were made for shits’n’giggles 😀 Also, lmfao Pepperiah, that’s good x,D

askgrimcreeper​ originally designed Rocoto and Tamale, and I took my wee spin on them for funsies. We also made little bios for them, so enjoy all the crackshipping-ness!

Name : Rocoto
Gender : Male
Species : Anthro Kurosian Dragon
Breed : Shire
Relations : Son of Feuriah & Chef Pepper Jack
Role : Aspiring Villain
Element : Dark
Personality : Fairly quiet and shy, Rocoto wants nothing more than to be an evil chef like his father. He has a natural gift with preparing the evil meals with the aide of his dark abilities, however he’s extremely sensitive and easily made to cry. He’s more often than not bullied by his littler brother Tamale to the point of tears. Despite that, he still strives to follow in his papa’s footsteps as his father had eagerly taken him as his apprentice chef.

Name : Tamale
Gender : Male
Species : Dragon-like Cayenne Pepper
Relations : Son of Feuriah & Chef pepper Jack
Role : Devious Villain
Element : Fire
Personality : Short tempered, yappy, quick to fight. Because of his tiny size, Tamale makes it up with his fiery personality. Unlike his much larger brother, Tamale has no talent in the kitchen. He’s very mean spirited toward his brother, but has taken a great liking to his older sister Hysteria, helping her in schemes and plots to eventually take over Skylands. 

Lost Queen : Oh Spirits, we joke a lot but we’re just friends. We get along very well, he’s great company and he knows old Kurosian recipes that keep me coming back to his kitchen. It’s just easy for our joking to be taken more seriously when they’re all ‘hot’ related. I feel that the rumors are more to anger Kaos, which I’ll add to if he decides to be a pain.
