I don't really have strong feelings about Frostscales, however I do think they would be cool.
We can reason a way for dragons to breathe fire. Whether it be flammable gasses or liquids produced by the dragons. But frost breath itself is much harder to rationalize as it would take a pretty strong endothermic reaction to happen. In my eyes it's the closest thing to magic a non Animus can have, so rather than being a genetic abnormality it feels more like magic gone wrong or a curse.
I also think that freezing solid and having your fingers crack off is scarier than just having them burn. It feels more final to have a limb simply be gone rather than be burnt and chared.
Firescales and Frostscales both embody the horror of never being able to touch your loved ones without hurting them, of being helpless to control your own body, of being shunned from your tribe and unable to form the same connections with them as your siblings can.
I find them both interesting, the only downside I can think of is that both Firescales and Frostscales tell the same story. The only difference being that Frostscales is for icewing's and Firescales being for Skywings.
Idk these are my unsorted thoughts, I would love to hear yours.
I don't like frostscales much as a concept. I think it's kinda boring ngl. I do wanna know if other people like it, and why or why not?

This is an old OC of mine who actually has a name. I'm pretty sure mangrove was a rain wing name but there is considerable overlap between the two tribes loose territory that I think works as a mudding name too.
She's a lil darker than I expected, I think I need to counter the coloring with some lighter horns, but I like her a lot
Since she's an old OC, of course she has a tragic backstory.
She got lost as a dragonet playing with her siblings and ended up floating down stream. Unable to find her way back home, she started following other older sib groups. Not always welcome but eager to learn, she developed a generally friendly repour with the population around her. As she grew she started to wonder about her lost family from years ago and started traveling up stream to find them.
I want to use her development to explore the mudding cast system. If not by blood, then how do they decide who is more important or who should be allowed in the palace? What are their jobs, how do they grow crops, canals????
More little guys. Colored and marked with glow scales.
An albatross sketch I made. It's Halloween themed.
I wanted to practice color and lighting. I think I did ok. Lacking focus though.
Either way I'm happy with this.
She so small
ena dream bbq makes me want to get into animation so here’s an attempt at some animation… not great… but like GIMME A SECOND
Found this on facebook but reposting to SAVE A LIFE.
Or at least some of y’all’s GPAs.
You’re welcome.
My pretty girl! After animating her I've really grown to like her design. Unsure if I want to add chin waddles or not.
Trying to figure out a name for her. The closest cool fish I've found is the lantern fish. Not sure if I want to call her lantern though.
She glows a LOT as her darker scales accent the bright light and her fins make her appear to always be glowing.
I know she has a few buddies I'm working on drawing too.
The main fear of Darkstalker
This scene from one of the Suicide Squad movies reminded me of team ENA so I had to animate it ✨This drawing helped me a lot with the posing of the shotgun!!
I like Wings of Fire and Cult of The Lamb. I like to animate and I'm still struggling to find my own art style
