Flight Rising Discussion

Discuss everything and anything Flight Rising.
TOPIC | I wish there were 2+ poses...
Like look at the art on the merch.

I love these! Imagine if we could change the poses between male and female at the cost of a cooldown, gems/treasure, etc. Or change into a 3rd, or 4th pose.

The thing is, each pose for each breed and sex has to have apparel and gene art. Much more time spent drawing. I wouldn't mind having to wait on new breed art coming in slow installments, and even keeping apparel limited to the original two poses, but it may just be too ambitious of an undertaking for a small team.

This is not a suggestion thread btw. There's already plenty threads similar to this idea in the Suggestion forum. I just wanted to say I love whenever new official breed art comes out, be in the form of a new NPC or art prints on the merch store.

Let this be an appreciation thread for all the official dragon art. I also ask: If there was any dragon breed you wanted new official art for first, which would it be?

I'd also love to be able to do that, but the thought of all the artwork the artists would have to do makes me cringe for them. I'd be much more inclined to buy tundras if I could have them posed similarly to the one in the snow day print honestly? Same story with the skydancer.

I love tundras to bits and my whole royal family is made of tundras, but the poses are kinda meh

On Furvilla they have this thing called Painties, it can be like a skin, but use of a premium item makes it able to go off the lines into anything you wish.

I also absolutely love the tundra. If Tundras looked that good onsite no one would take issue with them.

I seriously want Banescale merch! I love those screaming wyverns so much and want to show off my Fire flight pride IRL. I found it odd that Gaolers got merch right away but Banes didn't but oh well. Making shirts has way more steps to it than I could ever imagine.

As for poses, I think Tundras and Snappers need them the most. Tundras are so generic and male Snappers are so doofy that everyone avoids them and it's sad. Male Spirals have a similar problem in that if you flip them they look so... wrong. I have no idea why that is and would love for an art major to come in and tell us why male Spirals look fine in the lair but absolute nightmare fuel when flipped!

And if a silence filled the air do you think that anyone would even care? Would they be aware... of the mounting snow...
I bet bogsneaks would benefit the most from having new art because 1. they can have varying number of fins and 2. they're one of the less popular breeds. Idk why I've always found the way they position their necks jarring.

Same with snappers.

But now we have a dragon breed that's less popular and hasn't had much attention put to it, art wise. Ridgies. I would love to see the males doing something dynamic like attacking or burrowing.

A lot of people say they want to see the tundra in flight but frankly I just want to see a frontal angle of their faces. The face on the basic gene tundra has always bothered me the most about them.

I almost kinda actually want a competition like the tooltip comp, and the Familiar competition to make some merch! That would be fun

The fae pose on the merch is just [emoji=fae love size=2]!! It really gives you a feel for how spindly and long faes are and I dig it!! The way the wings are all fanned out and wide, and the ratio of wings to body, and the super long loopy tail, just everything about that pose is so satisfying!
