Oh, yay! Any ideas for themes MinyaZ and @demuncher? I definitely want to do desert, and maybe some new takes on existing themes. I covered pirate, spring, space/zodiac, and autumn last time.
Desert would be perfect for the current event. 😊
I'm not sure how you would tackle it, but camping is coming up. I leave the music interpretation up to you. 😊
I know that Om of Noms is Autumn, but we need some 'eating' tunes. 😉 🍲 🥪
I suppose I wrote the autumn themes thinking of the camping event; they’re all folksy and I envision them being played around a fire. So maybe I’ll take Om of Noms and do something with that!

Remember when I composed the sets of potential Twilight Tower songs for DV? Would anyone be interested in me continuing that project? I have some more theme ideas.
Yes, please! i am very, very interested in you continuing that project. Please.

I would do a Starr Fall themed one, as I would bet my DragonCash that the next event will be a follow up to Camping Under the Stars.

Upcoming plans include finishing my piece for advanced concert band (it's super cool so far!) and releasing the remaining desert-themed DV tracks.

Description:"With its legs never touching the ground, Sleepwalk dragons spend all day leisurely strolling and swimming in its odd comatose-like state. Magical dream clouds summoned forth by its slumber keep the dragon light as a feather. Wizards have tried for themselves to successfully summon such clouds, but only resulted in falling right through them. Artist John Everest Milleyes first witnessed the elusive Sleepwalk dragons within a dream. Still asleep, he rose out of bed and sleep-painted what he saw. The next morning he awoke covered in his paints with the most beautiful scene before him: a sparkling pink lake surrounded by colorful trees and crystals with a congregation of Sleepwalk dragons floating peacefully in the water, some even letting out a yawn. If only this was painted on a canvas for more to see and not on his library's wall." - This one took awhile but I'm glad it came out well

I really hope Sleepwalker sleepwalks its way into the Vale! I love how it looks like he has built-in bedtime slippers.
Incredible animation — totally nailed the flopping feet!
Please consider submitting this dreamy delight into a future contest, if the theme permits.

Thanks! The design began as candyland/sweettooth themed believe it or not, but it ended up fitting the sleepwalking vibes when I imagined its animation with the arms. Dream dragons are my favorite to make. I usually don't submit pre-made dragons into contests since its a lil unfair to others and it can be difficult to integrate the dragon fully into the theme of it but I may do it one day if I'm really not feeling up for the task and the contest theme fits. 😆
Sleepwalker’s legs remind me of Smigi’s arms. The two of them would get along smashingly! This is one of my favourite dragons you’ve designed, Worms — the list is growing long. 😃
Previously, you mentioned your hesitancy to submit dragons you’ve posted before, but I think Sleepwalker could be an exception. Although there was a sweet dreams theme, so Deca may not have a sleepy theme again. But if they did, Sleepy would undoubtedly prevail because that is right up her alley and in her wheelhouse.

I really like the design, but my absolute favourite thing about this dragon is the description. It's so creative! I really hope this dragon makes it into the game in some way or another.

I've always loved how Smigi got around with its arms, but I don't think you're gonna be seeing Sleepwalk do any flips and tricks anytime soon 😆 Depsite the difficulties with the animation, I'm so glad people enjoy this design in the end! I hope they host another contest centered around dreams, maybe even bad dreams, my Halvus dragon would fit right in. 😄

Thank you 🙂 I had a blast writing up the description. They're mostly what I struggle with, either I make them way too long, way too short or even just can't word something properly in a way it doesn't sound confusing 😅
I wonder if anyone can guess the slight video game inspiration for this dragon 🤔 It may be too vague.

more like Grand Slept Auto 🤭
a lot of inspiration actually came from Terraria and it's Hollow and Aether biomes, both share a dreamy, whimsical like atmosphere that I imagine Sleepwalk frequents a similar place in its dreams 💤

Grand Slept Auto! 😂🤣🥳. I love it! This is a game I would play.
Sadly, I’m not familiar with Terraria, but I like the images from Hollow. And I do like sandbox games!

Worms, you always nail your fanart drawings! I LOVE them. If DECA hired you as a design artist, I would be really glad. Although I have a feeling that will not happen anytime soon.
Although I do enjoy the breeding combo of SNOOZ + SHIMMER, I feel like an alternative breeding combo of SNOOZ + LULLABY would also work, since lullaby is always sleeping. It would inherit the appearance from snooz and the personality from lullaby.
You know how it has been over 7 years since DV has added a Gemstone dragon?
If you've been on the Forum since Feburary, you might also remember the Fletcher Dragon I created on Fletch's memorial thread.
In truth, the Fletcher dragon, surprisingly, is actually a beta design for a dragon I am working on currently. The current project features a Gemstone Dragon, which will have a similar style to the Fletcher Dragon... but a lot more elegant.
It's done. I present to you, the Dragonsai Dragon.
Info: The Dragonsai Gifting Tree has remained a staple of the Vale since the early days. For twelve years, the Wizards have been implementing the complex technique of Dragonsai in order to keep the Tree growing gems for years. One day, however, a Wizard managed to trim the Tree so well that the pure energy caused it to come to life as a living, breathing dragon. According to legend, this dragon only appears before the purest of heart. At least it's snout does not grow when it senses something suspicious.
The Original One is in all things. The Original One is nowhere at all. From all creations, over all creations, does Arceus watch over all.

This is so lovely! It reminds me of Maze and Fomhar. The Dragonsai Dragon looks like their offspring. This would be a wonderful Gemstone / Crystalline dragon!

My next project is currently in progress. It will not be completed tonight, although it should hopefully be done within the next few days.
This particular artwork-in-progress, as well as some of the future projects I have in store, revolve around the missing golden hybrid dragons. As you might know, there are a few combinations which currently do not exist:
Fire + Dark
Lightning + Light
Water + Lightning
Air + Lightning
Air + Dark
Metal + Air
Metal + Light
Metal + Dark
Dark + Light
Hopefully, I plan to design a dragon for each of these missing combinations. The first one in which I have decided to design is somewhat surprising - the opposite hybrid for WATER + LIGHTNING. Although Fire/Dark and Air/Lightning are certainly easier combinations to visualize, a great idea for Water/Lightning struck my mind before anything else.
👽 This dragon is truly outta this world 🛸 Name: Goobien dragon
Elements: Hidden
Quest: First Contact
Combo: Comet + Acid
Description: It's unknown where exactly these dragons lived before they were found in the vale. A hatchling crash landed in a field of pumpermelons and was found snacking on some. When the farmer hurried out to examine the crash site, the hatchling froze upon being spotted and quickly slipped back into its oddly shaped shell, flying off in the night sky where it came....until a whole fleet of Goobien dragons returned the next night to wreak havoc upon the poor pumpermelon farm.

This is an amazing 'alien' dragon and it is so fitting that you used Acid in its suggested combo!
