Hieroglyph Dragon: Dragonvale World

Dragonvale World was a 3D mobile game published as a sequel to Dragonvale by Backflip Studios. The game focused around collecting and caring for dragons. This was a limited release dragon named the Hieroglyph Dragon. I was responsible for its creation - from sketch to full painting. These images would then be passed to a modeler and animator.

The dragons in Dragonvale World generally had two color options, however, this particular dragon had a few extra color variations: each one representing a season. Additionally, they have different written messages and tail designs.

These were some early ideas for the Hieroglyph Dragon. At this time, I don't think we even decided on a name yet.
