Prompt #3 - Kag Mantas

One of the most notable creatures on Olearius are the kags, manta ray-like flying creatures that live off of floating plant matter. Its wings are ribbed with gills that pick up spores and leaves in the air-- the bioluminescence is transferred to the kags’ gills, giving them soft, glowing stripes. Kags are entirely peaceful and gentle, and travelers often pick places along the routes of their flocks to watch the kags drift by like a slow meteor shower.

Oh, this is absolutely gorgeous, SmirkCat! The colour palette is divine and your positioning of your character to allow the scene room to breathe and just be... beautiful.

I definitely need to see more of Ranu's adventures. Your artwork is really inspiring and uplifting!

I'm a sucker for orange and purple color schemes, and the textures and perspective in this piece are just phenomenal. Always happy to see Ranu again
