Q&A w/ my Science Teacher
13 years ago
My science teacher told me about FA. (I know, strange, right?) So he wanted to ask me some questions that some people might wanted to ask but didn't.
What are Free Flyers?
Free flyers are dragons that are very much different from the rest of the world. they only have one eye and no ears. (I am deaf, so I made them deaf too) But a lack of hearing doesn't stop them from being the most amazing dragons of their world. they are 6 ft tall and very rare. One female can only have up to 3 eggs every 50 years so breeding isn't commonly successful. Free Flyers have been something I liked to draw since 2009.
What are Free Flyers based off of? They look like other dragon artists too.
I love alligators. Alligators and Crocs. I'm fascinated by their mouths and how long they are. I also love prehistoric crocs that were larger and longer.
I'm also part Cherokee so that's why Flyers have feathers
Nambroth and Skysealer have been my inspirations for about two years. I love their works and I admire them both as equaly as I can. I'm not trying to copy anyone it's just using references of theirs I like to learn. especially from Sky. she's pretty well detailed. if you saw my Free flyers before I knew about Sky you would run and hide.
Free Flyers wings don't have bones. How do they move?
Muscles. If you think like how do snakes move on the ground if they don't have legs, it's the same answer. From back to tip of the wings, they're all muscle. And the wing flaps are skin so they can glide.
We go to school together; you have better drawings in your notebook than you do online. Why not do some flyers like that?
As much as I would, I won't. I'm trying to keep art I do personaly to myself and my friends. Or future clients. When I make the Free Flyers book. I want it to be directed at all ages. and I want this airbrush/watercolor feel to inspire kids to draw all the time. Art is being cut from schools and it bothers me. Even though I might have more viewers if I post what's in my notebooks, I would rather keep it simple and let people figure it out for themselves.
Do you want to become popular on FA?
No. I do love FA and that there are some good people and art here but I can't say that I'm looking for popularity. I came here more because my friends look forward to me sharing my art rather than keeping it in my notebooks all day. As long as people like bawnii enjoy my work, I'm happy.
Is there anyone on FA that you would like to contribute a Flyer to?
Her art is cute and she was very kind to me. I hoped that I can maybe draw one for her later.
Are Free Flyers exclusive?
If you're asking are they only for me? Yes. But if I make good friends or if a lot of people ask for one, I might change the rules. but right now only 3 people in person have rights for one and only one online. maybe it will change maybe not.
What do you look forward to in the days to come on FA?
I want to learn more about Open Canvas and expanding my knowledge on airbrushing/water color effects that I love to do. I want to know how to make something look really sketchy but really good at the same time. (My sister would argue and say that it does now, but I want it to look really good too) I just hope I can meet someone that can look at my art and say "I know how to help you." without meaning to make it look like everyone else's art.

Your style now is fantastic, and I can't wait to see how you expand on what you know later on! c:
They tried to get rid of the art program at my school, but people that have graduated (recently as well as long ago) fought for it, and we get to keep it up and running for a good few years! c:
Anyways, who cares if you become popular on FA or not, as long as you're doing what you love, and people are loving what you do whether the fanbase be big or small, then you're rockin the good life!
I can't wait for more. <3 All I can say is look for some tutorials online, otherwise I hope someone comes around that can help. uvu
