Hello everyone! I found myself doodling in class (again) and I created this winged wolf 😊 This little guy has been flying in my imagination for some time- I decided to draw it during social studies class XD I honestly hope you like its design, and it would mean everything to me if this was made ❀️

For the description below, that is just my general idea of what the Skolf is like πŸ˜‹

DESCRIPTION
Egg: Despite the looks of this egg, Skolf eggs are actually weightless. If dropped, it will produce a loud hollow ring. The wings, ears, and tail of the Skolf protrude from its smooth shell. The egg shimmers with different shades of blue, and displays a golden pattern that glows brightly during the night. Skolf eggs have the ability to float 10 or more meters off the ground, so it's best to keep the Skolf egg somewhere safe, away from open space.

CREATURE: Skolves are a very playful breed that enjoy attention. They are most commonly seen during storms and howling under the full moon. Their fur can be different shades of blue and purple depending on the angle you are viewing the creature. Skolf fur has the special ability to allow flight when consumed with chocolate, for unknown reasons. This has led to "Skolf hunts" whenever this creature is seen, and causing the population to decrease greatly.

Skolves are never alone- they prefer to travel in packs. When they are not barking at each other, they flash the brightly colored patterns that run down their fur to communicate in a language known as "Skolven".

It is important to remember that while Skolves are very playful and make amazing pets, these creatures are free spirits and born to be wild. To command them and and any attempt to "own" them will make your Skolf turn against you. This has lead to many Arkians injured and many Skolves have passed away during fights for freedom and ownership, thus declining the Skolf population greatly. Ark government and the SAR Center have taken measures to avoid Skolf and Ark citizen conflicts: There are laws that ban Arkians from poor treatments of Skolves, laws that prohibit Skolf hunts, and fundraisers have been hosted all around the Ark to raise money for the Skolf, and The Ark is proud to say that Skolf numbers have increased greatly in the last few years.

Awesome name for the creature and its language! The flight-granting abilities of its fur give it another reason to be hunted [inspiring for writing]. Good luck to the Skolf, it's interesting.

@skyfall4 Love the egg!
If I'm going to be completely honest, I feel the other stages may be a bit too busy. I like everything else about them, just feels like they have too many swirly things on them, in my opinion.
Awesome art though! πŸ˜ƒ

The details on this creature is amazing! If it was from the cave, I'd so hoard them, really! Yes I definitely want it. I do hope it gets made.

Merp. Forgot about the ping. "^^

I love the way you wrote the description though! It's quite detailed and thoughtful, and it deserves to be implemented as well if the creature itself manages to. From the secret language of the Skolves, their fur's interesting magical properties, and the laws created to protect them, there's just so much depth! πŸ˜ƒ

As for the creature design, I think you colored the wings and pelt of the Skolf quite beautifully. 😊 The mane is a little distracting to me for some reason though, probably because there's already so much going on with the creature and the green pigment doesn't seem necessary. Maybe try dark blue/purple to match it with the pelt?

XD it's fine!

That was my first description I've made, so I'm very glad you like it! πŸ˜ƒ

Thank you for the input! I've gotten a few posts regarding the colors πŸ˜‹ it is up to the artists which colors they will leave on the Skolf if it gets made, I guess 😊 since they are the professionals XD
