Description March 2009

Quetzal's daughter Xocalatl (chocolate in nahuatl). I wound up drawing her a bit older, and decided to just go with it. While playing I tried the 'chocolate dribble' markings and they just added something really nice, again, so I just went with it. XD

Heh, yeah the onyx (or maybe obsidian, I never decided) was a last minute choice.

They've already been made permenant with her molt into her juvenile age category. I thought that they added something that she really needed.

And, I gotta say, I find it so fun to watch how she and Tatsu grow up! XD I remember their first little hatchling drawings!

PookaWitch In reply to epicheather [2009-03-10 22:39:21 +0000 UTC]

^^ It feels strange growing them older, but so many children on the DC just seem to have grown up over a couple of years. So I put them at an age where they are old enough to roleplay without having to be forced into 'child' rps, and young enough to still be considered children. (They are somewhere around 13-15 in human years.)

epicheather In reply to PookaWitch [2009-03-11 02:50:24 +0000 UTC]

Aduial and Aara grew up pretty quickly too, right?

The age group you put them at is very good- that way they can talk with adults and start acting, "adultish" but, they can still act as kids! c:

I wish I could see a size comparison to their mom (and their uncle! XD ) It could be a family portrait!

FlockofFlamingos In reply to PookaWitch [2009-03-16 02:14:13 +0000 UTC]

I imagine it's a great embarrassment to not be able to fly for a dragon.

Thanks, she is a sweetie of a character (and more then a little hyper/daydreamy).

Oh wow, I love her design! She's just so chocolaty; she really fits her name x] The drizzle does look really neat, and her jewelry is awesome.

I actually didn't feel very creative with her jewelry, so it's a lot like her mother's.

luperescuerii [2009-03-07 18:20:51 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow, she looks absolutely gorgeous, and yummy. xD

Random funny thought I had... Someone should make chocolate candies in her shape. Like they have chocolate bunnies and chocolate Santas... It'd be funny if you made little chocolate Xocalatls. =B I don't know where/why my brain came up with that. XD

Anywaaaays. 8D I absolutely adore the pose. ^^ It's adorable. The shading is pretty too, I love how soft it is. c: Just an overall amazingly pretty picture.

Not that I'm complaining, because I *love* that your Neo characters are making a bit of a return, but I thought you weren't going to make Quetzal and Yasa's hatchlings' pictures public after the theft crisis.

PookaWitch In reply to Wabet [2009-03-07 18:51:21 +0000 UTC]

I've posted pictures of their hatchlings on DA before. Neo is looong behind me now.
(They were stolen within one day after showing them you know, only one day to spoil everything. :-/ )

Ooh, she's absolutely gorgeous Pooka Nice to finally see a picture of Quetzal's daughter -- all grown up too!
I particularly love her design. She looks delicious! The colour combination is stunning -- reminds me of chocolate and cream ... Anyways!

Stunning work!

PookaWitch In reply to Jadefuzz [2009-03-10 22:55:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, that was the look I was going for. Quetzal's species can be pretty much any colour, but usually they are brighter, bird-like colours with black, grey and browns being very rare.

Jadefuzz In reply to PookaWitch [2009-03-12 15:47:44 +0000 UTC]


Ooh, that sounds pretty cool. So they're normally quite bright and rarely dull colours, right?
