ok my two cents: i like them an alright amount, the bald head doesn't bother me so much really, but there are some criticisms

- they could've been a modern; nothing about their design pushes boundaries enough to warrant being an ancient. personally, i'm thoroughly sick of all breeds having wings. what i really wanted from an earth ancient was a big chunky spikey creature with no wings at all

- we have once again been cursed with the snub-nosed face. stop that

- there are a handful of genes that feel like they belong on this breed but they're not: pymorph, boulder/myrid, chryso/malachite, no glimmer again, where are shardflank and scorpion, veined, idk just feels like missed opportunities. i will hope for an expansion at some point (and that like um all of their prim/sec combos are ported to moderns thank you very much)

- with the delay in the lore why not just delay the entire breed? as others have said, we really don't need new breeds every three to four months. it's overwhelming. take your time. every other update doesn't need to be massive. and i can appreciate that we had years of no breeds at all, but this isn't how to make up for that

idk guys, i simply don't get excited for ancients anymore because they never do Enough with the freedom of design they're allowed to have. i will continue to beg for fire ancients that have the same vents as flamecaller where the fire is the secondary, for earth ancients with big spines and plates that are the secondary, for overgrown nature ancients with flora as the secondary. please be weirder with them thank you

I’m Cryin.

So I commissioned someone who is NOT on Fr and don’t knows the site to draw Kain a while ago. Yesterday while I wasn’t pying attention they accepted. Took the ref and finished today.

And i come to my Inbox to find a picture of HD april fools Kain drawn for me.  THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANTED.

At the same time I can’t blame the person at all because they thought this was his legitimate fucking ref I’m weeping. Its such bad timing it’s hilarious. 

As many were curious, this is what I got.The Artist is ArctursDracon on dA. Praise this absolutely precious person having tried their earnest to make HD Kain look Cool.

In light of the pending April…another year has passed for my Boy.

Happy 7 years.

thank you staff for making an official stance on this!

Concept: an ancient who has no wings or wing-like structures, and instead displays the secondary gene where Underbelly would normally go.

.........yeah apparently this would make the devs shake in horror due to Inconsistencies™, so, never mind

Do you want dragon activity while being locked out of dragon website?

I've created a dragon color quiz here. I made this a while ago but like many of my projects I’ve been sitting on it. Now just seems like a good time to release it so I’m releasing it

It’ll ask for your email and idk how to take that off so don’t give me your real email I don’t want your email

Question #91 is missing but I’m not able to edit the quiz right now

Since I mostly clicked the random button for these some colors repeat. I’ve also made up fake color for some of the wrong answers to throw in some curveballs.

I've also created some little MS Paint badges because graphic design is my passion. Feel free to use whatever even if you've never even taken the quiz, I'm not the police.

Have fun and I pray you don’t get too much of a headache

Is it just me that finds beard tertiary accidentally creates buck teeth???? Sincerely sorry in advance if this ruins the way you look at them
