This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

I'm writing a D&D campaign setting on a planet that is a giant dead dragon's corpse -- the dragon ate itself suicidally in much the manner of your drawing. Wrote a short story about the dragon over a decade ago, and it's been simmering for a while... Second last paragraph of that story:

But Azhi is tremendously long, and had grown considerably through all it had ingested. As it samples its tail, it pulls itself into a large loop in the blackness of space. And so it is, that as Azhi pierces its own hide and feels pain for the first time, out of the wounds flow not blood but all that Azhi had consumed. And still it continues to eat, pulling itself into a tighter and tighter loop, while oceans and glaciers and mountains and forests flow forth from its wounds, and soon too, the seven young dragons are freed from their prisons within and all life springs forth anew. But still Azhi continues to eat, until the very spine of its body was bound so tightly into a ring that it cannot contract itself any further.

I wasn't high. Just manic. ;)

That's a sick creation story. Now I wanna read the rest of it.

I think I can manage that, haha. Thanks man

Edit: I just read the story. It's amazing, that last line is sad as fuck.

Can I borrow your artwork for my campaign document? ;) It would only be shared to my players at my table :)
