Year of the Dragon 2024

A spin off of my Pop Culture Paleoart series, and a tribute to the concept of the dragon, from the mythological beasts that inspire awe and wonder, to the plethora of dragons of pop culture... and of course the great reptiles that either probably inspired them or are named after.

From the lovable bearded dragon to the mighty Komodo dragon, and the creatures of the past that we also name after the awe-inspiring creature.

I'll leave y'all to guess which dragon is which in this piece, but I can give you the names of the dragons of our world:

And for the past:

Today's warm ups... or in Tyrannomon's case, yesterday's warm up.

Greymon and Tyrannomon in the style of Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal.

Thanks to some friends, I've been going through a deep Digimon tunnel, and the wave of nostalgia has been pretty heavy.

So here's a Wargreymon, still to this day my favorite Digimon.

Here depicted is a usual calm and reasonable dragon-man... the other is one that's more dragon than man.

Once again, apologies for lack of updates and general inactivity! It’s only just recently I’ve had time for personal work. This is one of ‘em!

Basically a tribute to my favorite dinosaur, and all it’s multiple interpretations, inspirations and creatures derived from it.

It’s been a while ain’t it? Been VERY busy with work lately.

Today, I had some time to do some warm-ups! Basically a DigimonxWarhammer fusion where I make Agumon... Orky.

Thanks to some Discord mates, I hopped on the bandwagon!

A special shoutout to @w00tnewt​ and @noryubug91​ who gave me a lot of good suggestions for the six subjects :D
