Portraits of Draggynn

Yet another thread carving out a little corner to share my small commission collection with you folks. I think most of my collection has been posted in threads by the various artists, but seeing as I'm starting to get some new pieces, I figured I'd compile the collection in one place. I'm afraid I don't have a clever name for my thread (although I was tempted by Depictions of Draggynn) but I think you folks will survive. I know how much I enjoy looking at other folks galleries, so I hope you all get some enjoyment out of this. For those of you that are curious, in game references can be found here but I won't clog up this thread with them.

First the piece that hasn't been on these forums before by nekozombie66


And then whole bunch of pieces by familiar CoH faces, although sadly many of them are no longer with us:
A model sheet that I won in a contest run by Caemgen from former FArt Mistress Wassy. For some reason I had issues with colors getting distorted when I tried to upload it, so the colors are a little off:


My Very first Commisison from a couple years ago by City of Heroes local juggertha


A bust done by our very own Lady Judgement


Headshot doodle by Pirate-Cashoo, which used to be my forum avatar, and another full body one by her:



And finally a freebie by Deebs for the folks on Virtue


Once I have more time and money maybe I'll start commissioning pieces that actually depict a particular scene, but at this point I'm happy with the portraits

Thanks for the kind comments. I'm afraid it will be a little slow to flourish, but I figure slow but steady growth is a reasonable goal

Newest commission by Igloinor

I like the expression, here. A bit of ironic smile. Seems like most of the pics I've seen of Draggynn relatively 'relaxed', he has a somewhat clueless look. This one's, more like, 'Yeah, I did that and I'll do it again, if I have to.'

Be Well!

I think what your noticing is intentional on the part of the artists. Dragg is a pretty reserved, calm, and slightly lonely hero. So I think the look isn't so much clueless as it is somewhat removed.

I totally love your last two pieces, Draggynn!! Can you add a tad more water so more artz will grow from your thread?

Agreed, both pieces awesome... Tovio definitely did put his own spin on your toon, he does that , but it's very cool...

Alas, I wish there were more water. The current problem is that I have some more specific commissions in mind, but simply haven't had the time to get the references together for them. On the bright side though, I still have a couple outstanding commissions that are also just portraits that should be coming in during the next month. And then hopefully this summer I will make the time to get the larger commissions together.

Indeed, took me a moment to realize it was Dragg . I do love seeing different artists' interpretations though. With the exception of the model sheet from Wassy (which I was probably overly nit picky about...and thank you again Caem), I've given artists very little direction and just let them do their own thing, and been very pleased with the results.

That last one looks like the Draggynn that shows up in the nightmares of villains who have been 'arrested' by Draggynn. Totally Bas-Add.

Be Well!

Rhardo is always a fantastic choice... And this just proves it.

The pose and the costume details are Stupendous!

But why does it look like he's throwing a big Kiss to the audience? Anyway, cover the mouth and you get Stupendous again, so it's Great!

Be Well!

Glad you guys liked it!! I've been trying to snag a piece form him for over a year now after seeing all the awesome commissions folks here had gotten from him (especially you Caemgen), and finally managed to get in before his queue filled up. I almost commissioned several in a row from him because there were spots open, but managed to contain myself

No idea on that one, you'd have to ask the artist! I've decided to explain as perhaps he is getting ready to blow a gale force wind.

And today I was alerted that Draggynn doll was ready by Layla. More details can be found in this thread.

I can't wait for him to arrive in the mail. I'm still trying to figure out a name for him though, like Nightcrawler's BAMF doll, but Dragg doesn't have a signature sound though.

I put in a vote for "Horny" as the little beastling's name.
