How to Draw Rainwings

[@abnormal.studios]

"a rainwing will get you if you stay up late" felt that on a godly level.

[@fluffin_chat_noir]

3:34 in Darkstalker's book, I think I remember reading that the SeaWings (I’m not sure if it was them) were having trouble with the RainWings and (again, not entirely sure) MudWings? So I like to think they were definitely more fierce and powerful back then :D

[@maxximus6418]

Yeah if I remember correctly the Rainwings would attack them or smth (not 100% sure) and yes I believe it was the Seawings

[@FlightmareYT]

Yeah I think I remember that too

[@WingsOfWaffles]

Yeah I remember that! It seemed that the rain wings definitely had power back then

[@Icyyydragon774]

Yes, the rainwings definitely had power back then. They were the most powerful tribe in all of Pyrrhia, as the Guide to the Dragon World says. There's a section about I think a dragon called Python who sent a letter to the queen their sister, or niece, the queen who turned RainWings into pacifists.

[@fluffin_chat_noir]

@@Icyyydragon774 ooh, I haven’t had the chance to get the guide yet but it’s cool we get more info on them!!

[@josephinekorn3215]

I usually only check Mondays (I'm Australian so it's probably about midnight when they come out) so this was a pleasant surprise! I needed help with getting the tail colours balanced right, so thank you very much for doing RWs!

[@WhisperOfTheWood]

-hi-fives- aye, my fellow Australian :D

[@DragonetsAndDrawers]

Same, I can never get first because I’m a normal person who is y’know sleeping

[@animation-dragon]

Hmm I never thought about them being tall but now when I think of it I see it and I love these tutorials! 😊

[@blueberrydragon4eva730]

Hiiii I love your art soooo much!!!

[@cheche2350]

How do you manage to make me happy EVERY time I watch a video!

[@Sc-eb3ds]

Rainwings are one of my favourite tribe! So glad you covered this! ❤

[@amozyyy62]

⭐Perfect Midweek surprise :0⭐. RainWings were actually the first tribe I started to daw tbh. Great vid as always :D

[@shimo_96]

One thing I've always wondered is why RainWings are as calm and happy-go-lucky as they are. If any other tribe had even one of the abilities that the RainWings had, they would totally be using it against the other tribes, especially during the War of SandWing Succession, so why did the RainWings not do this? My best guess is that they maybe were that way in the past, but something happened that made them shy away from their abilities, especially their venom as in book 3, whenever Glory spoke of using her venom on another dragon, the RainWings would react as if she said something completely unspeakable. This leads me to believe that the RainWings really were more powerful in the past, but learned to be more responsible with their abilities, and then that eventually just turned into what we know in arc 1, where they became more fearful of their abilities instead.

[@JRodriguez81977]

Rainwings!! One of my favorite tribes, and it looks so beautiful!

[@TheGameBreaker66]

3:31 in the guidebook, it hints to them being more scary and powerful, as in actual nightmare stuff

[@Strawberrykoal]

In the guidebook, there’s an old note from the ex rain wing queen’s sister in burns stronghold (likely a note that old sand wings stole long ago), it explains how a rain wing queen named Anaconda turned her tribe from deadly assassins, killing the most powerful dragons within seconds, to peaceful fruit eating and lazy, after a powerful attack from the sky wings that killed half her dragons and burned the rainforest. Python (queens Sister and her aunt.) was outraged because rain wings were never peaceful, they were cruel and mean, they killed and lied without a second thought, they didn’t care about their own dragons, queens would sacrifice their troops until they were the last one’s standing, then fight to their death. So very different from modern day rainwings, if it wasn’t for the sky wings we wouldn’t have kinkajou or glory or Jamboo or pineapple, or any other modern day rain wing, and all the night wings would be dead, so that means no dragonets a prophecy.

[@TheGameBreaker66]

“If you stay up late, a RainWing’ll get you!” Me watching this at 2 am: *sweats nervously*

[@camilleslack7380]

I love these tutorials! They really help! Keep it up!

[@christenlee-os4ze]

Love your art style and I watch all of your videos! This video really helped I always struggle with the frill and scale pattern.

[@Bridgetteslayss]

its so beautiful your better then any other artist and your so kind and nice! you deserve a 100m subs! bye

[@smiling_muffin83]

Awesome tutirual! I love rainwings!

[@Ripple_W0F]

I really want to see you like make alternations of this for different colour palates and genders, I think it would be interesting to see your favourite combinations for the rain wings as they can be any colour

[@PenelopeMartin-nr1lw344]

Congrats on a new base! I love these!

[@jaehdaexe]

completely unrelated lil headcanon I just now came up with-I imagine that rainwing venom is also somewhat similar to a scorpion’s, as in their venom is strongest when they’re very young since they wouldn’t know how to fully control it yet

[@clckc]

Thank you so much for this! I kinda needed it. I’m the type to draw one thing and stick with it forever, and I do not wanna do that! I really want to change it up but a lot of the time I’m just not sure how or what looks good. If you could give me a few tips I’d love that! This video helped, too.

[@mcroar350]

o love seeing these tutorials! they help me so much

[@mcroar350]

i not o

[@TheBatQueen-e2q]

I know, I know, its now a What If episode, but I have a few ideas! 1. What if Moonwatcher didn't have her abilities, or if she didn't hatched in the volcano? 2. What if Cricket could be hive minded? 3. What if Luna and Blue never met/didn't know they were half siblings? Anyway, hope you can find some inspiration! (this is a repost of a coment from an older video fyi)

[@Looseer]

I haven't even watched the video yet, but I am SO happy you did a rainwing one. I love your work, keep up the great drawings!! ❤❤

[@Logi_432]

Thx for the tips on rainwings also amazing art

[@simpledrawingschannelsdc3352]

[@DaDuckisLive]

[@moonhunt18]

Cyprus: "[...] and remember, you can always erase!" Me: Ummm... you sure about that? Even after I've erased the muzzle/snout so much there's now a little hole in the paper?

[@thepanbee]

thank you i love your art 💜

[@Freeraven12345]

And I actually kind of feel like rain wings I like the more acrobatic tribe like if there was a parade, I think that the rain wings would be like the crazy acrobats that are doing those insane flips and brake dancing and stuff.

[@ilikefans8392]

I have a vary similar technique from the scales but with the frills, in book 3 i beleave it says kinkajou changes the shape of her frills a little bit while gaurding the tunnel, glory and jambu also changed there "ruffs" a bit, i just take it to the extreme to the point where my main rainwing has a main, secondary, and terchiary frill style!

[@hyzmarie]

I just assume they can fluff it out to different extents, expanding and contracting the spines like they do their wings. So, to guard the tunnel and look fierce, Kinkajou would fluff her frill out all the way, and to look like IceWings, Glory and Jambi would hold it in a very stiff way so it moved like spikes

[@Rxrandom0625]

I have I headcannon that Rainwings and Leafwings can sheath their claws like cats and have (hands? claws?) that are a bit big so they can climb tree's . And Rainwings sheath them when they turn invisible.

[@GigiH-u3g]

Rain wings my favorite tribe !

[@sudesh.khatri]

Why is your art SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOODDDDD?!!!! Also EEEEEE IM HERE AFTER 4 HOURS OF THIS VIDEO Edit: Can I use your style with some changes? I won’t copy it exactly but I really like how you draw heads and bodies. Love your vids btw❤ I’d love to see more hunger games if you have time

[@sockszilla12]

Pleasssseeee do IceWings next they're one of my favorite tribes and are kinda hard to draw, so I would love any tips(please and thank you) :)

[@ChaoticWatcher]

Honestly your art has alot of influence on my style, and I am glad that you arent the kind to get mad about copying your style lol I swear, I got stuck on how to draw a dragon sitting, watched one of your videos, saw how you did it, and I figured it out! Could figure out how to draw a wing folded, or draw a dragon laying down, watched your videos, then I figured it out! My style is close yet very different from yours, and you are one of a few reasons why I got into drawing dragons, I've always wanted to, but I was so scared to, I saw your content, eventually i got the guts to, and now i love drawing them, and i am so happy i did

[@Kaede_OFFICIAL]

Hey, cool and nice video! I have a question. I just installed krita and drawed a cat like on it. But I was wondering, what is the pen your using right now? I kindda want to try it out

[@yamininidumolu5850]

A headcannon I have is.. imagine a RainWing named Drop.. Drop could be immune to their own venom. This is just my headcannon. I also think their horns and claws are covered with their scales so they can camouflage properly.

[@meep1445]

Thanks so much for this video! so many great tips! (also is it just me or is daily dose of internet in the description for some reason)

[@golden_opal6050]

I think it was cannon in darkstalkers time that rainwings were tge violent ones and skywings were the happy-go-lucky ones. Theyve swapped places completely. I wanna see more violent rainwings in future books now that they have a solid government with 1 queen. Edit: "Go forth and draw some RainWings" let me ad that to my pocket bible rq...

[@hybridanimus6412]

I think with the rain wings of old, most of them were traveling merchants and they didn't really have a tribal community. They were just all over the place and would just appear and disappear. At least that's what I got from that book. Stay safe, gamers :>

[@katie5113]

[@rien9265]

I normally just think of rain wings as stupid little things. Graceful, but stupid dragons that live under a rock. I mean don’t get me wrong I don’t know much at all abt em and I’ve only ever read a few books abt em but yeah that’s my opinion
