Jafira Dragon

Hopefully brighter days can come soon

I don't commission art as often as I used to and haven't learned to draw or create my own yet, so I worry that I've very little to contribute or offer of interest. I mostly just spend my free time in VR with friends whenever not at work. I am still trying to figure out my niche here beyond lurking.

Last one. This is one of my favorite models in VR, a "Dovabrodian" I was able to make her match very closely to my vision of how I see my dragon, with the exception of scale plates on her belly the representation is flawless, I spend a lot of time just lounging on rocks in VR chatting with friends.

A Kitbash of a Kudadragon, She has various mixed assets: "blended Wings" "pony tail hair" "long bangs hair" "fluffy dragon tail" & two clothing assets from Kudalyns store. I kind of just mixed various parts on to the model to craft a personalized version of my dragoness Jafira, I'm very proud of it!

A furred anthropomorphic creature with large ears, feathers on its arms, white belly, black fur, green feathers on it's arms, it is wearing a blue coat decorated with green leaves. The creature, called a Rikkor is standing in a realistic grassy field. Photo taken in VRChat.

This character, likely shared in the past, is a rikkor oc of mine, it's name is "Shadow"

An avali photographed in VRChat, she has green feathers, a purple tribal vest with sapphire gems, blue eyes and tan fur. She is smiling and standing around flowers in a forest.

An avali, she has green feathers, tan fur, blue eyes, she is standing upon rocks in a nature environment near a metal fenced barrier,the photo was taken in VRChat.

My avali oc, Sakadi, originating as a Starbound character, she's become a bit more personalized as an avali-sona over time, these are screenshots of her from VRC, model is Floofavali.

I skim my feed on Bluesky daily, I'm just legit too shy and derpy to post or reskeet very much.

What did it do?

*wing hugs*

I think I might post more pics & clips from VR here, I collect lots of furry models & spend most of my free time in VRC, it's become my social life. But I worry it'd be unimpressive if all I have to share is myself as different virtual critters. I'm shy, just thinking of ways to be a bit more active

Happy Birthday, I hope it goes well!

Thank for all your time and patience on her, the lighting is amazing and she looks beautiful in this scene, I love how it turned out! ^.=.^

Autumn is just around the corner and what better way to start off the season than a picture with the leaves~

This is for @jafira.bsky.social! Thank you so much for the support <3

Sorry for the delayed response, yes, it is a model that I use often, the species is called a "Rikkor" they have a community in VRChat and I spend a lot of time sharing adventures with them!

A black furred humanoid creature it is unique to fantasy and hard to relate to an earthly animal. But it has black fur on it's back, white furred belly. Green eyes, it stands upright and wears a blue open robe or coat. It is standing in front of a lake as the morning twilight sun rises through distant clouds.

Hi new friends! I'm quiet, but I lurk here often! When I'm active I usually try to share dragon art I've commissioned. When not sharing art, I tend to post dragon'y vibes, gender feels, self critiques, pics of clouds or random thoughts. Occasionally I may share photos taken from VR.

As the years go by, this may be impressive to look back on someday. Here's hoping for continued growth!

I may be biased because wanted a quad dragon for awhile & it's the first one I found, but so far no real complaints, its worked better then many other quad models in VR, camera particularly seems perfect, whereas other models tend to have your view sort of riding on the model this one works normally

VRChat also allowed me to explore my seemingly fluid gender/dragonkin identity in new ways. I set out to create a female dragon model which would match how I'd been seeing myself internally lately. I purchased a "Kuda Dragon" added some wings, hair, & new tail to create a custom dragoness for myself

A CGI Screen captured image of "VRChat" portrayed is a black furred four winged dragon, orange hair, blue green eyes, purple belly scales. She is smiling and standing in a grassy glade.

Eventually, with the help of other fans of Flammie within the furry community I was able to obtain a copy of the free model. I customized it into a personal OC and made a flammie-sona of myself. It became my main model in VRChat, one I'm always improving upon. I feel the form makes me approachable.

Three furry creatures, 3D models of a "Kemono" style. Called "Rikkors" screen captured from VRChat

I'm a fan of Flammie from the Mana series of games. So it was one of the first models I sought in VR, I used an avali while I searched. While hunting for "flammie" I discovered a species called "Rikkors" While using a Rikkor model, I discovered their community, they accepted me & I met many friends!

Around the spring of 2021, I got a Quest 2, it was my first experience with VR, The first thing I played was VRChat, I instantly fell in love. I found that the ability to control my appearance & surroundings gave me new confidence, I soon discovered I was actually a lot more extroverted while in VR.

Dispite just copy pasting a selection of old posts from my Twitter account, the other night's post storm seemed to had taken a surprising toll on my social stamina, I feel like I'm in a sort of emotional reboot phase now^^' I'll definitely be more casual with my activity here moving forward ^.=.^'

A reference of myself (Jafira) as an amalgam of my two dragon identities. She is how I have come to see myself in recent years. Although genderfluid in spirit, I prefer she default as a female dragon. This art is by Holight over on FA: furaffinity.net/user/holight/ Check out their other works! ^.=.^
