Not to make some HUGE deal out of this, but ... it is high time I change my user avatar/icon. So, first a proper salute and send-off to this guy, which I've been using for definitely more than 10 years (mostly due to not even thinking about it): ...but while it's been a nice symbol for my account here, and dragons remain always a perennial art interest to me ... it doesn't really "feel" like me anymore. And the simple fact is, that dragon was never that much "mine" to begin with: because it always was a recolor of somebody else's dragon: So, then, say hello to "my new look": This is based on the version I used for my 2026 ArtFight card (and which also happens to be my first serious attempt at digital coloring with a tablet!). This is not a personal character or "fursona" strictly speaking, but his underlying species nonetheless is 100% my own, and I can feel more relaxed using it as a symbol for my presence here. I might tweak it sometime later, but for now it will do as-is.
