Mostly compiling a few concepts from the past few weeks, something I try to do in warmup drawings every now and again. Thankfully a big week is now behind me and I had the time to make a couple doodles!
1) Drek on the left's a bit eggnant, being gravid doesn't really stop drekir from doing anything and most just keep on doing what they were doing anyways! Just with a bit of extra weight in the back. They will probably lay that soon and move on. Not really new lore I just don't draw a lot of gravid drekir for fear of it conveying the wrong message in the comics! But it happens!
2) Gun! Guns have stuck in and out of the canon and the current state is more of a cast bronze handgonne style of deal. Weapons like these would trade around in the mid to late awakening in logáu (these are vaguely logáun drekir) in the aftermath of a prejag invasion. While the sovardi introduced the technology to bolster the military of larger powers like Aguk and Dorã it was only a few decades until the guns started to spread around the plana. Thanks to flashpan being an easy alchemical to make allows these guns to be easily loaded. Shot purchased from traders, rocks, wooden stakes, they're great for hunting birds if nothing else!
3) Bow! Now that drekir can bend their torsos a bit (it's going on here with both drekir bending towards the camera but can't be seen very well) The ergonomics of bows as a projectile weapon are a lot more viable in my opinion, even if not the most powerful bows. If a hunter wants power an atlatl or javelin would be the weapons of choice but the ol bow and arrow may appear with some increasing frequency in the DragonScape. Bows have a lot of nice little upsides!.. and downsides
but to each hunter and prey their own weapon and way!
4) Bending! Can't see it here but both of these drekir are doing a little bend in their front torsos to turn or reach to their bowstring properly. Giving drekir a little bend in their front torso ideally will help improve a lot of aspects of their ergonomics. The current plan is to say its a sort of Atavism in the same vein of the fur, an effect of the éldimor species "correction" when seperated from the sivilào.

Ah guns, my old world building arch nemesis. The darn things completely change the dynamics of any world they show up in, and tend to cause an annoying reduction in the plausibility of cool climactic sword fights.
Regardless, always neat to see the ergonomics of such critters adapting to ranged weapons. Also I feel like that new curvy drek style had found its way into the Bow. Makes it kinda cute, for better or worse.
Also I suppose it goes without saying that ill never complain about more egged drek ;3

Yeah they are quite the cat to let or not let out of the bag.
Though bows I think are fine, they’re a more niche weapon for drekir but would server a purpose well! Small to medium game or with poison for larger game.
Eggs do indeed happen and don’t seem to get complained about much thankfully!
