Height Comparison Reference Sheet of my feather-winged draconic characters!

I would be remiss if I'd have let too much time lapse between my recently completed Wingspan Comparison Reference and a Height Ref of the same group! (Only sneaky alteration is the addition of a new character, Ahiad!)

I wanted to go a bit more into this Ref and give hints of more background information since the characters are literally presenting us with more information in their broad side-facing, 'ref sheet style' shots. Whereas with the Wingspan Ref I tackled wingspan and body length, and snippets of information regarding their flight styles, this one presented me with...height! So I wanted to include some (super) brief information about their physiology and how their mannerisms come into play.

And since I do plan on whipping these up of my leather-winged and non-winged characters as well, I included some basic information about the 'Flock' itself and the role they play in my ongoing saga! My upcoming Refs of other characters will feature basic information as well, and how each 'clan' is tied in together and interact.

As the Ref says, each character presented here plays some role in the world, either actively within the 'Squadron,' or as a supportive member outside of the main force, (MFP, anyone?) Magic-wise, they all possess some powers derived from spiritual energy, (as per DAD lore - the exception being Muzafr, who just burns everything wantonly, heh,) and fill an elemental niche in their environment. Some have found how to utilize their elements for military and occupational use, (i.e; Sniper, Spitfire, Jaeger, Dusty, etc,) whereas others are local 'subject matter experts,' tuned into the nature and history of their homes, and they interact with the Active Duty members when their missions take them to those areas, (i.e; Kaneohe, Squawk, Senkhet, Swinan.) Sneakier this time - put 'Warfstache' in your comment if you read all this! Often, these locals will give information, food, supplies, and lodging to the others as they travel. Other times, they become good friends, such as in the case of Sniper and Kaneohe! Sniper's more rigid Naval lifestyle sometimes flies in contrast to Kane's more laid back, wave-hunting attitude, hehe, but Kane still welcomes Sniper to his Hawaiian island home when Sniper visits the local base.

Other relationships are founded by chance encounters between the AD members and the locals, such as in the case of some of the Squadron becoming lost in the thick rainforests, and Squawk coming to rescue them, her being at one with and knowing every tree, root, and stream in the jungle!

And other interactions are forged simply by necessity and a respectable standfoff. Rainier is strict, requiring permission for all who wish to cross his mountains. In return for a courtesy check-in, he offers a distant sort of protection, an ancient eye over any threats approaching those in transit. 

And in contrast, others are still discovering their role in the grander scheme of things, and travel with the groups, seeking tutelage from the elder members, (Lance, Glitch.) Or, they are simply foreign to the region or human society in general, and have a fascination with learning customs and culture, or maybe have attached themselves to the group purely because they look similar to themselves, (Spirit.)

Three human silhouettes for additional reference throughout, as this ref ended up really long! Design-wise, this project was a lot of fun. 8>

Thanks for checking this all out! Kudos if you read all this, and the Ref itself! Trivia - what's a Note/Caution/Warning associated with Glitch?

Wow..........
This is really awesome! I really love what you did with everything.
To the general stats with also the height, brief description of each member of "The Flock", details and layout, and more~!

Warfstache~
And to answer your question, Hug Glitch at your own risk. The risk? It's static is built within the fur. The fur who hugs it Might be zapped unintentionally. xD Though funny, hopefully no serious injury will follow o;

AmericanBlackSerpent [2017-04-22 03:03:59 +0000 UTC]

These characters are all so damn cool! Especially with their many different unique personality traits and skills they possess! Nothing is repeated here! Though Question if I may. How do you figure out the measurements for all your characters wise of height, length, wingspan and weight? I know with your designs, they heavily depend on the dragon's build for the measurements, but I am perplexed on how you do that, since there is no real life reference to your dragons to which you can't really just take a tape measure and get all the measurements that way, haha.

TwilightSaint In reply to AmericanBlackSerpent [2017-04-22 12:33:18 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much! The big things that help me to determine their dimensions are the relationship between the wingspan and length of the body, and their basic physiology and proportions. Since I base a lot of their anatomy off of dinosaurs, felines, and horses, studying those creatures comes into play!

AmericanBlackSerpent In reply to TwilightSaint [2017-04-23 03:47:03 +0000 UTC]

Oh boss! Okay, so you don't have any universal equation for all of this. It's mostly just observation yes? And I see you utilize size charts like the one you used in this to help determine measurements as well? Kind of like how there's little bars on a road map that shows how 1 inch = 1 mile, that sort of thing? I am a person who's really bad at math so that's why I am asking so many questions.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TwilightSaint In reply to AmericanBlackSerpent [2017-04-29 08:11:13 +0000 UTC]

I actually do have a rough sort of equation and ratio that I like to stick with, mainly for the relationship between length, wingspan, and weight, but I do vary from it as need be depending on the physiology of each individual character! For example, if I have two characters that are the same length, but I know the one has more muscle mass, I'll make that character heavier than the other and tweak my ratio, etc.

Thanks a bunch! ^^

I actually used to write - a LOT. I was working on several stories over the course of several years ago. I haven't begun any large-scale writing project with my newer characters. However, I am working on writing out fairly thorough backstories, (a bit longer than what I usually include on my Ultimate Refs,) for my bebs. I'm making these fairly uniform in format, to be included on smaller uploads, or what I'm calling 'Portable Ref Sheets.'

Thaaaaank you! <3

That is amazing! I used to write a lot as well, but my university has caused me to stop. I look forward too seeing some more of your future ref sheets.
