I finished up my gem heavy wishlist, but now I want to save some gems for a primal gen1, so I thought I would supplement my gem income with some dragon reviews!

@Redtiger7736

I’ll take a top five review! (My hibernal den has most of my dragons. Please avoid the breeding pairs and fodder tabs. )

@Redtiger7736
May I snatch a Top 5 review? <3
Mostly positive but a bit of critique is always good. Also only including the first two Tabs (Red Ghost and Seawind Harbor), no need for Den or the Misc. tab. :3

@Purpleater13 @Riesenraddieb gotcha both down! Will start momentarily.

@redtiger7736
hello, could i take a (positive) top 5 review slot? :>
of my lair, every tab is good to look over except for the [other] and [projects] tabs! i've got nobody in the den either so no need to worry about that. x)

@Redtiger7736 I'd love a constructive Top 5 review. The misc tab is sales/foder so please ignore it [emoji=coatl happy] edit: seems like Hocotate was quicker than me, so can i snag a lair review instead. please ignore the coffee tab as well since it's still a work in progress

@Purpleater13 You certainly have an interesting lair!! Here's my top five, in no particular order.

Suffice to say, I adore it, and may he rest in piece. Onto a little more happy things, this lovely coatl boy caught my eye for his gorgeous color palette and apparel. I really enjoy the warm browns and greys he has, they mix perfectly with his accent and match surprisingly well with the haunted flame apparel. Actually, the haunted flame apparel adds a nice mix of warm blues to him, it really balances out the earthy tones.

To first address her lore, how eerie and amazing? Sentience born from chaos is actually really cool, and her entire look fits this description really aptly. The turquoise alloy is a really nice look on her, especially matched with the learned sage apparel. I love the use of the blue flames and lantern together, they create a very strong sense of magic and danger lurking beneath for me. I'm also surprised how well you toned down the brightness of grape, between her apparel and the runes its easier for me to handle.

I adore that accent in general, but it fits so nicely on a neutral color pallet and pops out just enough to feel like a true accent and not just odd coloring. I don't know if you are ever going to add onto his apparel, but I like how the coat sits on male imperials in general, and in this case it does a nice job at drawing in the bright blues of his accent and the neutrals of his natural colors. I hope you keep his wings fairly open, as the fins from the accent look really nice shown off like that. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=27655974] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/276560/27655974_350.png[/img] [/url] 4) Kelsis caught my eye for his gorgeous mix of purples and blacks; I'm beginning to notice you have a taste for neutrals with a hint of other colors and I love it! Though Kelsis has no lore, I really get a feel for a character from his looks. The mask and whispy smoke of the cards definitely screams "trickster" or maybe thief to me, which is fitting considering he Is a shadow dragon. I like how you used some less common genes for him too (cherub/peregrine are a really nice pair!) but didn't exactly show them off. I also appreciate the pink and purple accents brought in by the accent and cards, they flow really nicely with the purple tinges in dusk rogue and conjurer apparel. I can't decide if I want him to be a wizard of a thief more...

Once again, he has a fairly neutral or dull base color palette, but you match the blues of the spruce with his accent and create a properly creepy fae with few pieces of apparel. The hood provides that nice white eyes, which works really well with the goo drips in his accent. I also love the use of the sash and collar to break up the cherub and colors a bit and tie in the bits of grey still visible from his wings. I think he would look really nice with the learned sage lantern as well, but don't hold me to that because I haven't actually checked. My overall feel of your lair is you are really good at color matching with accents and apparel! You do a great job balancing colors and textures, and you have several dragons that are Perfect for my taste.

@FlowerPhoenix @Hocotate gotcha both down!

@Riesenraddieb You have quiet the collection of interesting dragons friend! Some lovely imps in particular. My top five, in no particular order: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=38281491] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/382815/38281491_350.png[/img] [/url] 1) Damon, who is quiet the striking pearlcatcher. He's got an interesting color pallet that I don't see very often; purples are usually paired with yellows or blues rather than browns, but here it adds a nice pop of color. The secondary and tertiary color matches so perfectly with the nightshade mage apparel, plus the plum plumes (which is very difficult to say). I love how you added some nice gold with the gold seraph, silks, and citrine flourish, it works really nicely with both the browns and the purples. Personally, I would suggest adding a bit of apparel to either his wings or his flank, he looks a little unbalanced at the moment.

The opal adds the perfect amount of texture to his natural colors with wonderful contrast. I appreciate how you went relatively light on apparel, sticking to relatively uncovering and small pieces for the most part with a few hoary scale to balance out his looks. I really the addition of the sword, it's what changes him from an 'icy mage' to 'icy vampire prince' in my mind, not a dragon to be messed with! Also, the ice crown is a nice (and expensive if I remember correctly) touch, clearly communicates his rank. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=15074805] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/150749/15074805_350.png[/img] [/url] 3) Regis is another wonderful example of how to work contrasting colors; he's a very unique looking XYY which is a very nice selling point for me! I like how the primary and secondary have a very subtle texture to the genes, and then you have a lot more texture with the gembond. You did a nice job at toning down the amount of gembond with his outfit though--I tend to find gembond too much on most species--but didn't get rid of it entirely. His outfit is also incredibly gorgeous with his accent; you've got a nice mix of purples and pinks with the rose thorn apparel and his accent. I also really like how the banner and collar have a fade between red and black, which really ties in his outfit to both his primary and secondary. Definitely fits the part of an arcane mage.

Python always looks really nice on pearlctachers in my opinion, and this boy is no acception; the striking fade with his striation only adds to the smooth colors of python. His outfit is also quite well made, I find male PCs pull off pants and shirts rather well, and the way you layered the scarf, shirt, and vest makes him quite interesting. He does fit the "young vampire" aesthetic you have him labeled as, I appreciate that.

He's an XXY, which is usually not one of my favorite things but poi/tox adds enough texture and color variation that I actually quite like it in this case. I really love the layering of the jesters hat, antlers, and woodmask; it leaves me with a crazed an wild sense that is quite befitting of his name. The frosted wood stuff is a nice addition to him, it adds to the sense of craze and supernatural, and fits quite nicely with his colors without blending into his other apparel. If I could make a suggestion, perhaps add a small splash of color somewhere to break up the white a bit; maybe blood bandages on some instead of all white bandages? teardrop apparel? Something small to break it up a bit. All in all, you have some wonderful dragons of all different types in your lair, and you have a very nice grasp of how to work with male imperials!
