Ashaine's Skins & Accents

[Ashaine]

I decided to make a thread where I can post my WIPs as well as my finished skins and accents.

Feel free to comment and give constructive feedback. Suggestions are always welcome as well! ♥

I will also do custom accents and skins! (See below for details)

PRICES:

• CUSTOM ACCENTS: 1 accent blueprint + 500-650g depending on the complexity of the request.
• CUSTOM SKINS: 1 skin blueprint + 1000-1500g depending on the complexity of the request.

If you commission me, you will also get to name the accent or skin and choose whether or not I can re-print for others. (Though I do retain the right to print copies as needed for my own dragons).

WIP

I think Syleye & Tarn would agree with me: There just aren't enough skeletal guardian accents/skins. So I'm currently working on a dracolich-style accent. This is what I've come up with so far. It still needs shading and I plan to change the skull 'mask' a bit by adding some fangs/teeth and I may yet give the tail some bones or ridges. I also thought about tattering the wings a bit or adding more rib bones. Decisions, decisions...

Also, the color on this will match the apparel 'crown of bones', 'bone antlers', and the 'white birdskull' apparel.



Here's a preview of it on one of my dragons:



Feedback and suggestions are highly encouraged! So let me know what you think!

WIP - Take II:

Today I added skeletal tail bits, removed the old rib lines, added new ribs/spines, and edited detail to the skull area including another tooth. What do you think? Should I tatter the wings or add anything else or should I just go on to the shading stage and finish this? Feedback welcome!

wow that guardian looks awesome!

[Vephriel]

Wow Ashaine, these look amazing! That guardian would definitely be something I'd have if I were still actively playing. Great work!

[Mĭrya Namárië]

Ohh that's amazing. Tattering the wings would be a great details. What about adding extra horns too ?

[SammyB]

Beautiful Work Ashaine!

[TygerDarkstorm]

Love what you're doing with the guardian one!

[Ashaine]

I worked more on the WIP today and added a progress SS. Let me know what you think!

Should I add more details, such as tattering the wings, etc. Or should I just move onto the shading stage and finish this up? Suggestions and feedback welcomed! ♥

Also, if anyone knows how to check the coverage % in photoshop so I know whether or not I'm venturing dangerously close to skin territory, please let me know! I'd love to know how to keep track of that. I thought I found a good guide, but it was too confusing to follow as I'm a photoshop noob.

[Syleye]

I'm pretty sure you're safe, no clue how to check though. I like as is. I'm not a big fan of the tattered look due to still being able to see the wing outline. I love the fact that it will match the bone crown

[Mĭrya Namárië]

Extra horns is perfect ion. I would defo add tattered wings too . Sadly i got no clue about the skin thing but think you are good.

[Ashaine]

Thanks for the feedback. I need to figure out how to check what percentage I'm at before adding anything else. I really want this to be an accent and not a skin due to price. I tried to follow two guides I found on FR, but to be honest, they confused me more than helped me.

[GormanGhaste]

I usually prefer accents to full skins, notable exception being the skin on my random progen

[Mĭrya Namárië]

Just dug up grave guardian accent as comparison.. this is qualified as an accent.. so i guess yours will be too?

Bone guardian on two of my dragons and on two random bought adults on ah

[Ashaine]

I went ahead and took the chance by just submitting a 5 run print of the accent. It was approved today! Here it is on one of my dragons. 2 copies were gifted and the remaining 2 copies I may raffle off here if there is enough interest. Let me know!

[Syleye]

I would be interested for sure. It came out nice

[GormanGhaste]

It's lovely. Unfortunately Aloe, my only male guardian, is too lightly colored for it to show up very well.

[Mĭrya Namárië]

Defo interested

[TygerDarkstorm]

Anaiya would definitely be interested!
