  • I still don't understand a scrotum on a dragon.

    Do you really want those flapping around in a breeze when you're flying? Considering he'd have to be going quite fast to keep aloft...that'd hurt.

    Also, in-before 'realism in dragon anatomy wut?', I get it. But...still, I have to wonder.

    Those things don't really look like they'd "flap around" too much.

    Anyways, this pic is full of rawr.

    Considering dragons are reptiles, they would actually have internal testicles. BUT, since this is porn...

    First off, who said dragons are reptiles? They're fictional creatures, they aren't anything. My dragons at least are egg-laying mammals who have other traits of reptiles, birds, or plants depending on specific species (of which there may be -thousands-), and as such have teats and vaguely mammalian genitals (i.e. external testicles) where gender-relevant.

    Second, as a stereotype, dragons breathe fire. This habit will necessitate a high body temperature, if only as a result of the flame and not as a requirement. A high body temperature will render internal testicles inoperative. That is why the great majority of "warm-blooded" creatures have external testicles; if it was not absolutely required then such vulnerable organs would not be out and unprotected.

    Third, just because it has wings doesn't mean it's going to fly. If you're going to be "realistic" there is no way a dragon would ever be able to fly, balls or not. They're simply too large and thus too heavy (square-cube ratio), especially since they are frequently explicitly coated in heavy armor made of metal or stone. Their legs wouldn't get them far off the ground and their wings wouldn't keep them there. At best, they could be expected to glide for short durations, limiting them to Spyro-like movements and very low speeds.

    Finally, assuming that a given male dragon was capable of flight, and assuming despite his absurd weight he was somehow capable of anything faster than a leisurely cruise, why would his genitals be any more harmed by the wind than any other soft or vulnerable part of his body such as his eyes, ears (yes lizards and birds have ears), entire underside, or extremely thin wing membranes? At a high enough speed the pattern of air movement as the dragon cuts through it will cause it to arc smoothly over his entire body without scraping his underside anyway - his forelegs can be used to ensure that. It's like saying that spraying water under your fingernails will tear them off - there simply isn't enough power for that to be an issue, unless your dragon can approach the sound barrier, at which point -all- of him is at risk of injury.

    If you're going to question the sense of something, make sure you've considered what is truly sensible in the first place.

    Same way nobody asked how this looks like your "original" character?

    The comments are not for pointless arguments when we most likely don't give a fuck what some people think

    you make an amazing point and I applaud you but dragons being physical representations of the different aspects of nature (fire water wind earth darkness light ect...) are beings of magic. it is genially accepted that dragons fly through the use of magic same reason Chinese dragons have no wings but fly anyway they are creatures of magic.

    I've got no argument here. Dragons are more or less the paragon of fantasy creatures and magic is usually a critical segment of fantasy settings.
