Anyone who remembers the old reference will understand what an improvement this is! I'm very pleased to say that I only made minor design changes and this reference is primarily a display of my overall development as an artist. It is unfortunate that I could not include his human form; because I wanted to include details about all 3 pairs of wings, I was afraid that also including human information on the ref would make it overly large. I'm considering making a separate human ref.

I would love to say more about this, but I am quite tired tonight so the words are not coming to me easily! As always, I recommend that you download it and I hope you enjoy.

who even knows. . . I've received advise on timing things but this one was done over a great period of time. I'll get better, I promise >>

This is a very beautiful sheet Shin and I apologize for not always commenting since a lot of the time I'm quite shy and/or just don't really know what to say. Anyways.... I've always had a love for pure white dragons (are Ilumarae considered actual dragons though? I always thought they were) and Ardrius is no exception. He is absolutely stunning and it's great to see a proper, up-to-date sheet for him! Although you explained in the sheet that the effects of Time magic are largely unknown though I am still quite curious on what he and his family capable of doing with it.


Could he perhaps see visions of the past, present, and future timelines? Maybe cause someone to age or deage? Keep himself and others from ageing and always stay youthful? Just some ideas I had in my head but correct me if I'm wrong, which I probably am though I am still quite curious. Also, is he capable of using other elements as well? Worldbuilding and characters like this always interest me! <3 My apologies if questions like have been asked before and if it's a spoiler for Xiro Myth.
