Commission for @rottclaw, (FR User Drown).

hi yes, i have no idea if i've already praised you for your work, but i used to play FR before, and seeing your adorable cuties on my dashboard just geeks me out! >w< SUPER nice art, and SUPER great cuties!! You alone make me want to draw FR stuff again ;W;

Ahh thank you so so much!!! <3
You should definitely draw FR stuff again ;)

Hi I just want to say I love your art and it makes my dash lively again. Most of my fave FR artists left or are on hiatus and it's been refreshing to see your art filling my empty dash. Please keep drawing those good, good dragons

You’re too kind anon!!! Thank you so much, it honestly makes me so happy to hear that people are enjoying my art.
stay tuned for more stupid dragon drawings i’m planning on sticking around 👍

feathery sketches

I wanna give Rin a big Jar of Peanutbutter.

thank u anon, she is incredibly grateful <3

How long does it take you to do one of your drawings? Like the one you did of Rin

I’m useless at timing myself but I think this one took somewhere around 1.5 hours, maybe closer to 2? A dragon with lots of apparel and detail would take me muuuch longer but Rin is pretty simple :]

I spent so much time trying to get that pose right >:0

another-flightrising-blog:

@pocketss inspired me to draw
WHOOP take my Alistair and their Rin, because Rin is honestly my most favorite Mirror ever
(Also what if mirror fins acted like lizard frills…)

AHHH THESE ARE AMAZING ;_;
Alistair is a beauty - frilled fins is such a neat idea!

I love Rin so much. As ridiculous as it sounds, whenever I see drawings of Rin it makes me happier. Give Rin some flowers for me, hopefully Rin doesn't have allergies eUe 💐

thank you so much anon, she loves them ;_;

THESE DRAGONS ARE ADORABLE

I loooove love love how you draw mirrors, they're so perfect!! It makes me want to draw my favorite mirror girl again- she was always my favorite to draw to begin with and it would be great to give her another try. It's been too long since I've drawn dragons, thank you for the inspiration!

Ahh gosh thank you so much!!!
I’m so glad! Mirrors deserve all the love <3

@pocketss she may need to work on this

oh mY GOD

For someone aiming to be so bad, she seems pretty Pure to me. What is not pure about eating flowers and licking peanut butter jars empty. She is blessed.

she is mostly just…
a Bad Friend

Some plague dwellers. Prolonged exposure to the Wyrmwound has left them a little ‘altered’.

Would baby skydancers look like baby birds? Just giant balls of floof?

100% yes

dragondrawsdragons:

So I was thinking about @pocketss droopy-finned mirror Rin earlier today. I love it when because give their dragons quirks that make them weird and different. So I thought hey, what would the other breeds look like if they had droopy crest/fin/ears. And the result is beautiful, I love it. Time to find one of my dragons to droop-ify.

I tried Tundra, but their droopy ear just hid in with the mane :( just so you know why it isn’t there.

Bonus angry ridgeback, because how could I not?

Look at these beauties. Perfect flawless children.

The art block was killing me today so I put a dragon on a tarot card \o/

This is Fawn! She likes alchemy, and being a good friend.

Commission for FR user Kelu. This ridge has such a perfect gene/accent combo!!

theodore-lilith:

Hey @pocketss this is Gingersnap, and he made a ‘Specialty Chocolate Peanut Butter Latte’ just for Rin!

… what do you think the outcome of this would be?

OMG :0
Rin has zero idea how he made something so amazing but she is extremely grateful!

Rin spends most of her time outside away from the rest of the clan, but sometimes Fawn will go and track her down so they can hang out.

Fawn looks like the best good friend, does she like friendship bracelets (totally not gonna give her one)

Of course! Although she may end up melting it in a pot. Not to be rude or anything, she just really likes melting stuff :]

Commission for @dreamslayer-fr (FR User Dreamslayer), of their beautiful florist boy, Milo!

fandomsfrickenunitethings:

@pocketss’s Rin meeting my newest pride and joy, Drya. She loves her garden and has been talking about it and other plants for a solid 20 minutes. Rin doesn’t seem impressed.

Rin’s probably just a little distracted because she’s never met a Tundra before :0

When startled, Skydancers do the thing.

rin's been getting so much love lately and i am 100% here for it. please tell her that i love her but she should maybe stick to snacking on peanut butter and not other dragons familiars

I’m afraid familiars are a very important part of a strict and balanced diet

lindwur-fr:

@pocketss My Mirror, Sable, would like Rin’s style, but I’m pretty sure Rin would despise Sable

REVENGE

familiar acquired 

sornieths-black-market:

And here’s @pocketss awesomely-designed dragon Rin, because I need more mirror practice and I had my pencil out!

Doodled her with Oracle, the world’s shaggiest albino pearlcatcher. He’s probably telling her that the gods say there’s much peanut butter in her future.

These are absolutely beautiful!!

chrizardy-fr:

@pocketss
I think that Aputi wouldn’t know what to do with Rin because he’s more serious than he’d like to admit, but she may have fun romping with Astreaus who is also pretty hyper. ^_^

Either way, she thinks Aputi’s ice hat is very nice :D

A new boy!
This is Locke, he’s a bit smug.

Locke’s familiar is this dumb cat. His name is King Toast.

Please tell locke he is a very handsome man and give him a hug for me

honestly validation is the last thing he needs

What cool things do your dergs do in their spare time? :v

They’re thieves by trade! They spend a lot of time stealing from passing travelers and traders.

image

How does Rin feel about Locke?

She hates him so much.

sjachspell-fr:

Farceur wanted to show Rin some spooky magic, and made a cringy pun in the process.

@pocketss

I’m so sorry Farceur, Rin’s not exactly smart when it comes to puns.

She thought your trick was very impressive and delicious, though :]

Locke is a big nerd

Doodle commission for FR user Saere. Their wolf dragons are always such a joy to draw <3

What does Locke like to hoard??

FR Commissions [USD]

Hey Flight Rising followers!
Thought I’d let you guys know that I opened up a new Art Shop this week, exclusively for USD orders. Slots are full at the moment but if you’d like to check my examples & prices, or be added to the pinglist for when slots next open up, then you can check it out here.

There are a fair few styles listed there, but if there’s anything you’re interested in that isn’t on the pricelist then feel free to ask me about it! :]

image

I’ll also be uploading all of my commission info here on tumblr once I’ve finished my current orders, hopefully with lots more examples to show you.

Oh and King Toast is fine by the way :D

Rin has been put in the shame box where she belongs.

Animated doodle commission for @vigilight (FR user Ghostmateria), of their lovely Linglan and Damasc.

fr-ectochoir:

Some quick post-it work doodles of @pocketss floppy finned mirror Rin! She’s a dang cutie in the most awful way.

amethyst-raven:

I drew @pocketss’ Rin and my Shadowstalker. I wanted to draw Mirrors again and they both use ice picks. So…

While Rin has floppy fins (which I love), Shadowstalker has angular ones. :D

What would Rin think of Shadowstalker though? Probably not like him. :P

It definitely took her a couple minutes to figure out his headdress :’D

For being an adult male Guardian, Locke has such a baby beard (in Guardian culture, a male's long, luscious beard is a source of pride) Source: Flight Rising > Encyclopedia > Guardian Dragons

The poor boy had to cut it off, it was becoming too much of a safety issue

I would die for u king toast

he would die for you too

toad-fr:

I had a dream that they introduced a new flight and its leader was a tundra named Susan. Her eyes were all black and her colors were a dark purple and green. She was the grim reaper of the dragon world and was not fully a dragon— more like a creature trying to stay in a dragon shape. People were guessing designs for her but she turned out much less horrific than people imagined. She looked most like a tundra but had chicken legs for her back feet.

The flight didn’t have a name but they were a resistance group. They believed the gods were wrong and wanted to overthrow them. They were based all throughout sornieth.

i wanna join Susan’s flight does anybody have her number???

fruitys-fr:

My Ezekiel reacting to Rin. Ezekiel seems a bit surprised to say the least.

@pocketss I thought I would show my attempt at drawing Rin. I did it for practice since I’m new to drawing dragons. I really love your art and it’s a huge inspiration! Also I was using a full pencil so it isn’t the greatest 😅

Don’t worry Ezekiel, most people have that reaction :D

kc-rising:

Some big smiles just in time for Halloween!
Tyr, the Bogsnog, is mine and the floppy-finned Mirror, Rin belongs to @pocketss

I think Rin and Tyr would get along well. They have so much in common.
Big, toothy smiles, an appreciation for food, a bad habit of stealing other dragon’s familiars… and then trying to eat those familiars…
