Swordfish’s mother - First concept (Patreon)

Here she is!

Swordfish’s mother, a benevolent sea-dragon, and nameless as of now. I finally got a general idea of what I wanted her to look like, but just like Grym went through a makeover, so might she! Or maybe not! Depends on where my intuition takes me.

I took inspiration from some marine species, namely seals and swordfish (the real fish, although Swordfish’s own design was my reference too :P). She was flightless but felt right at home in the sea’s perilous environment. She was perfectly capable of traveling on land too, and was not any less dangerous for it! Nobody dared to provoke a dragon as giant as her. Although, for a hulking wyrm, she was gentle and curious. Two traits that passed on to Swordfish, whether by nature or nurture; who’s to say?
