Invalid_Infinity Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 If you look at the armor.... -so many horns Horns are a somewhat widely shared common characteristic when it comes to eastern and western dragons, as well as some reptiles which are related to dragons worldwide lookswise. If you look at the head. The subject has horns, she does not look like a demon, nor a devil. -It's not a type of horns that mammals have, so she is not a goat. If you look at her expression... -She has a stern look and powerful presence about her, something that's shared between powerful beings, such as dragons. We can conclude that the subject is a dragon inspired warrior or a dragon-related creature. I did not need a text above her head to guess that she is a dragon inspired character. All of this. Chroma lacks all of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteoHatto Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Chroma has wing nubs on his shoulders, a huge tail, and a snout. That guy in the armor just has scales on him. Many reptiles and some animals have scales. And reptiles are what....? They are related to dragons in more than one sense and look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmptyDevil Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) And reptiles are what....? They are related to dragons in more than one sense and look. Everything that has a reptilian look doesn't make a person think dragon. That picture you posted does not have a draconic look. It has a reptilian look. If you took a salamander from outside and stared at it, you wouldn't think dragon even though it clearly looks reptilian. If you want to call those nubs wings then I guess you can call anything anything. You probably didn't read clearly. I did say WING NUBS. NUBS. Please read carefully next time.

You know if national geographic, a worldwide scince channel for everything living associates dragons with reptiles then you know everyone would too, right ? http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/reptiles/draco-lizard/ The only humans in the whole world who can't make a connections with reptiles and dragons are the ones who haven't seen either or in deep denial of it.

The thing is i already associate dragons with reptiles. For some reason keep implying i don't. What i am saying is, that not all reptilian traits invoke the image or thought of a dragon. Reptilian would be the classification of the creatures. There are many creatures that fit under this classification and dragons are one of them. Your picture fits under the classification of reptiles first and before dragons. It could fit in with dragons if one explicitly states it is modeled to resemble that reptile in particular.

Can you do the same with a Chroma picture ? I don't think so, if i am wrong then please do it. I'd be delighted to see it. DO I really need to go into paint to point things out because if you don't like him that's fine but I see the dragon features if you can't then well. . . . .

The ability to breathe fire ? People can do that. Tail ? Many other things have tails Nubby wings ? haha "wings" What else ?

(PSN)Akuma_Asura_ Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 I was honestly hoping for something similar to this, maybe slightly more organic and a little mutated, but not what we got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firebreathing (humans can't do this naturally...), tail, and wing nubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, stop linking Endrians design, it does not fit in warframe. People linking this thing is the reason Chroma supporters think that we all wanted rhino reskin.

We have yet to see him in action. Im talking about "dragon parts" sharing some form of resemblance with dragons in general, not just in name. Like the tail, does it look like a tail of a dragon or has something on it that has a dragon/reptile trait ? To me, the tail looks like its a tail of a beaver, honestly speaking here. It's flattened and has a soft form. Just like trinity's tail looks like a lobster/shrimp tail. Edited March 8, 2015 by kiteohatto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
