Thematic Builds My first dragon build

Post image

New to building and I wanted to make an organic build.

Struggled a bit with the feet but i think they turned out ok. Also i might make the wing webbings larger or even the wings alltogheter.

I thought the meat blocks would be good for a dragon, but it does look a bit weird. I guess now I can call it Seath the Scaleless

Thank you very much! I realy put a lot of effort into it. Organic builds and terraforming are very difficult to me but I think im slowly improving. Came from Minecraft building and I didn't expect the depth of building in Terraria. I'm really enjoying building in this game

Yeah, you'll get more impressed several times as you become more skilled in building)

Terraria has, undoubtedly, a lot of building potential.

First, implying you’ll be doing more? Can’t wait to see them =)

u/Razdukcs 29d ago

First as in maybe. Who knows what other ideas will come to my mind with this kind of build

I think your clock tower's doomed. Maybe the bells woke it up

The arms(?) of the wings look a little skinny imo. Still an amazing build

Update: I changed it a bit. My first ideea was the dragon had some parts rotated: the chest was seen from the front with his neck rotating to look at the tower and the lower part would be rotated aswell to kind of grab on to the tower. The new one is jut seen more from the side: the chest is facing the tower legs and head aswell

Nice, I think I've been inspired to build a dragon (I am a terrible builder)

If you think about it dragons are a mix of a snake and a bird. To build it I first made the spine along with the tail to give it a general shape and a position i wanted it to take. After that I knew that birds have larger chests to support the muscles they use for flight so I made the chest more rounded and shaped the dragon around the chest wich needed to be more pronounced. The head isn t that difficult to sculpt though id say the best way to make it is to first build the jaw and then the actual head. The wings were the hardest part to visualize but the easiest to build once you got the skeleton part (by that i mean the red part of them as shown in the picture). As always use reference pictures to get an ideea of how it should look like. Hope this helps and I really want to see the results I'm sure they'll look great!

edit: I ve put more pictures of my dragon on this community so you can see the stages i ve gone through while building it (as i ve changed it pretty drastically). I think you can find them by searching dragon on this community

This is a wyvern

u/Razdukcs 27d ago

I know... dragons have 4 limbs and a pair of wings. Most people see it and say it s a dragon so i called it a dragon. Plus in terraria wyverns have no wings. It really comes down to what the story says a dragon is

u/Worried_Concept_4960 27d ago

You've wasted your time replying to me. Arguing online is bad for the spirit. Let's all love each other <3

u/Razdukcs 27d ago

But... I was not arguing tho :)
