Ruth - By Delbin

This is one of the Pernese dragons from Anne McCaffrey's books. It's Ruth, the white dragon. I actually got his style from the book cover "All the Weyrs of Pern." Even though the pose is different, I tried to draw him in a similar way the cover one is. I realize that there are some mistakes in it. One of the front arms is fatter than the other. I didn't see it until it was too late. Please tell me what other errors there are. Hope you all like it.

Yeah! And Sundance lives in either Louisiana,Mississippi, or Alabama...

Silentiea

[Sep 09, 2005 at 12:59 PM]

Does she? Where did she say that? All I can find is her saying she lives in a 'secret valley.'

Makla

[Sep 09, 2005 at 03:52 PM]

i think he's guessing by the fact that Sundance hasn't replied since the hurricane struck

Silentiea

[Sep 09, 2005 at 08:59 PM]

Not a good thing to guess, and not enough relevant evidence to really assume it.

Talus

[Sep 10, 2005 at 07:52 AM]

WELL EXCUSE ME!!! **rubs temples** I'm reeeeally worried about Sundance right now, so I'm sorry if I jump to conclusions. She could be living in...oh I don't know, I just want her back.

Makla

[Sep 10, 2005 at 07:36 PM]

same here

Ramoth

[Sep 10, 2005 at 08:14 PM]

Ramoth

[Sep 11, 2005 at 01:49 AM]

Goldenqueen

[Sep 11, 2005 at 08:39 AM]

Hi! I like Ramoth + Mnenth, sorry if i spelt it wrong!

Goldenqueen

[Sep 11, 2005 at 08:40 AM]

But i am only on the 3 book. It is soooo sad what happens to Wireth + Brekke. Damn Kaylara!

Delbin

[Sep 11, 2005 at 03:06 PM]

Talus

[Sep 13, 2005 at 11:38 AM]

Ohhh...

I like the drawing. I think the body needs a little work though, but the head and wings are fine (the head looks great). I also like Anne McCaffrey's stories. Have any of y'all read "The Smallest Drangonboy"? It's a short story by McCaffrey. It's my favorite.

Delbin

[Sep 19, 2005 at 04:25 PM]

ya! tha was a good 1! n fct, tha was how i got n2 her books. tha was the 1st story i red.

Ramoth

[Sep 20, 2005 at 01:15 AM]

I hated Kylara! So um by goldenqueen you mean Wirenth?

joey

[Sep 21, 2005 at 08:18 PM]

Ramoth

[Sep 22, 2005 at 12:50 AM]

I havent read that one. If anyone can't see this it is because some idiot put the comment bit yellow. hey that was a dumb comment because if no one can read it then...

Delbin

[Sep 22, 2005 at 03:31 PM]

Stargazer

[Oct 03, 2005 at 08:19 PM]

sally

[Oct 13, 2005 at 04:36 PM]

Kiluea

[Oct 18, 2005 at 02:58 PM]

Adaneth

[Oct 19, 2005 at 02:22 AM]

Itarelde

[Oct 20, 2005 at 04:12 PM]

Delbin

[Oct 20, 2005 at 04:16 PM]

Makla

[Oct 23, 2005 at 09:47 AM]

Stargazer

[Oct 26, 2005 at 10:19 PM]

i think thats why we like art.

Makla

[Oct 29, 2005 at 05:51 PM]

it might be why YOU like art. i know that's not the reason why i like it

Stargazer

[Oct 30, 2005 at 03:11 PM]

Well, whay do you like it than? Just as a matter of curiosity.

Makla

[Nov 03, 2005 at 09:57 PM]

...it's a release

Stargazer

[Nov 04, 2005 at 05:40 PM]

That's another good reason.

Delbin

[Jan 04, 2006 at 03:14 PM]

it is, but pernese dragons hve a -th ending on all ther names. i no its weerd, wen i 1st red it i thot he was a girl 2. n i jus noticed tha the commnts r now bakwerds. the newest is on top. man, this will tke gettin used 2.

_Eggroll

[Apr 18, 2006 at 01:43 PM]

no body nos me ! now theres som 1 from Canada 2 eh!! (and in case any1 was wondering canadians dont all live in igloos!!in fact inuits only used to live in igloos when they went on long huntig trips i think)anyway i like the pic and wen i look at the leg, how 1 ifatter than the other, 2 me its because the bigger 1 is straining to hold the dragons weight up. and 1 more thing, about the leg bending backwards, some birds and lizzards bend ther legs bakwards, its ther nee joint!!!! PS my friends call me a brainiac/goody 2 shoos

Mnementh

[Apr 25, 2006 at 10:04 AM]

never fear Mnementh is here, so delbin how do u want my pose, lol, At first i thought ruth was pronounced rooth like the girls nm but now i think since ruth is a boy its an uh sound, anyway nice pic although its not how i imagined ruth

_Delbin

[Apr 25, 2006 at 05:23 PM]

it is pronounced like the girls name i thnk. i thot it was weird at first too, but it fits, since all dragons have the -th ending. and i did draw a pic of mnementh, uh yu i guess, its on this site, its on the next page. and thnks. i pictured him as the artist(i cnt remeber his name) did on "all the weyrs of pern" he designed half the covers. some better than others.
