Concept Art: by senkou
Description: by dragrawr α΅•Μˆ

───────── ο½₯ ο½‘οΎŸβ˜†: *.☽ .* :β˜†οΎŸ. ─────────

Hey hey it's Senkou again c: I was feeling creative and thought of a little dragon creature inspired by this year's zodiac! I know i've been kinda spamming with so many creature suggestions in a short period of time (elsara, bunvun, and now estraela, basically one per month haha) but i wanted to draw anyways and thought I might as well share it. As always hope you guys like it ❀️

"ESTRAEYA" UPDATED Concept Art : https://www.deviantart.com/bellanienie/art/Estraeya-Concept-Art-2-1012111107

Old Art: https://www.deviantart.com/bellanienie/art/Estraela-Concept-Art-1011624013

Key features: Star-like detail on one side of its head, gradient blue horns get shorter with each stage, dark beige 'blush' with a white mouth, stars are silver (alt. muted orange), loosely inspired by chinese dragons so no wings

Habitat: Outer space/ Fairy World/ Ark City
Height: 0.2 m
Weight: 4 kg

standard: 48% male, 48% female, 4% non-binary
Evo path: 350 clicks >> 500 clicks >> 800 clicks

───────── ο½₯ ο½‘οΎŸβ˜†: *.☽ .* :β˜†οΎŸ. ─────────

Description
(thank you @dragrawr!!):

Egg:
The pastel colored egg is swaying back and forth, seemingly rocking itself into a comfortable sleep.

Creature:
As young hatchlings the Estraeya species has incredible overgrown horns, forcing the babies to stay put on a star. Since they are too heavy to begin floating they begin to play around with the other young, breaking loose tiny particles of the star. Due to these newfound friend groups of Estraeya, the stardust becomes enhanced by the creature's inner magic, allowing them to float and fly with ease. As adolescents they sometimes make crash landings onto stars- a consequence of their still bulky horns and their urge to bump into each other playfully.

The stars that get bumped into, in the midst of these tiny dragons romping around, become the shooting stars Arkians see at night. The stars get jolted loose of their position and fly across the sky in a dazzling glow. If looked at closely, one may be able to see the fun-loving Estraeyas chasing after the star, spinning and twirling in its stardust, making high pitched chirping sounds.

Be sure to wish on these shooting stars since the Estraeya can hear these wishes reverberating off the star, and may be inclined to use its magic to grant the wish! They are magical, after all!

Aww, it looks very peaceful and also a bit sleepy somehow? 😊 I really like the simplicity in the color scheme too, it looks very relaxing and soft on the eyes... dunno how to explain it, it just gives me a very "relaxing" vibe!

@sinthr thank you sin! ❀️ i was going for a dreamy/minimalistic vibe for the creature so i'm glad it came across well ^^

@dragrawr yes i was hoping it would have a smaller aesthetic too (hence 20cm height lol), a full set of minis would be so cute o-o❀️ and if you have some free time on your hands feel free to write him a description (would be much appreciated and would love to collab hehe).

@shirothekittehlover thank u so much! 😊❀️

Gosh this dragon is so soft and adorable. ❀️ πŸ₯Ί
If I was going to be critical; I would say I honestly get similar vibes between it and the Naleli.
(THERES LITERALLY NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS, I adore both - I think its just cause similar colors + stars and my brain groups them)

Overall I really adore the soft color palette of this dragon and I'd love to see it & get one myself.
I love the beige, purple and yellow muted colors.
The soft aesthetic is just *chef kiss*

@prairie thank you, i'm glad you like the aesthetic and colours! and thanks for pointing this out, yeah i'm beginning to notice the similarity the more i compare the two πŸ˜­β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ήβ€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή thinking of changing some of the colours or art perhaps to create a more distinct difference between the two creatures, but feel free to let me know if you had any suggestions (from one artist to another x))

edit: changed the colours, lmk what you think!

BABY BLUE MY BELOVED
Gosh I adore mutes browns and blues. And the yellow adds some warmth to it so it doesn't feel too cold! If you want to add more warmth - you might be able to change the cheek patch (I think that's what it is) to a darker brown.
I still LOVE IT!

I rans some tests here on combos if you were curious: https://sta.sh/01umhder6fkz
(I just separated the lineart to run tests- hope you don't mind)

@prairie I suggested an orange star as well, I feel like it would go well with the neutral and muted colors so far πŸ‘€ hopefully it gets made πŸ™πŸŒ™πŸŒŸ

Just came back again to appreciate the description, really amazing work there @dragrawr (I imagine them being all clumsy and playful now with their horns and stuff and it's just too adorable??). 😭 I also really like the revamped art version as well, I do love that relaxing blue color... I think I want that kind of blue on my kitchen's front wall too. ✨

@prairie HEHE i'm glad that you like it 😊❀️ also thanks for taking the time to do the alt colour palettes, i especially love the suggestion of the yellow/silver mist alongside the original creature art, might add it as a note to the artists if you wouldn't mind? ^^

@sinthr @shirothekittehlover (right drag's literally a natural at creature description writing ;-;❀️) thanks for popping back and glad you like the updates1!!!

@wonderexe404 @icecloud101 thanks and i'm happy to hear that you like the concept!

@frosting thanks brah 😘🫰🏼 and yup we def need more pastel/muted coloured creatures in the game (the creature colour palettes are so saturated these days)

@flakes glad you like it!! i'm so honoured that you wanna collect my suggestions ;-;❀️ hopefully it gets made!

@senkou OMG ITS SO CUTE???? need a bunch in my cove NOW. I love the colour scheme and how tiny it looks, definitely needs a lot of cuddles!! πŸ₯Ί and the concept of the horns growing shorter throughout the stages is interesting too, I imagine the babies are quite clumsy with them like newborn deer are with their legs haha ^^ I'm all for it!! gonna be wishing that space month comes quickly so that I can snatch a dozen of these babies ❀️

Senkou, this is such a cute lil dragon! Egg Cave can always use more magical little friends like this one. I really like the color palette, the fluffy parts, and the winky face. *edit* Dragrawr's *edit* description is just lovely, too. I'm wishing on a shooting star that this will be made!

Thank you for the ping!

Oh crab! Please accept my apologies, I missed that you wrote the description! It's definitely beautiful. ❀️
We have a lot of fierce dragons on this site, so to have more dragons, and have them be complementary to the fierce ones, is very needed! It's nice to have a variety. ^^ I'd love to see how the artist interprets this sweet looking cutie.
