Sapphire Dragons and Rose Quartz Dragons?

Sapphire or Turquoise would be nice colors … Turquoise can also be in the blue, green, and red-ish color families.

I am not sure why this hasn’t occurred to me before but I realized some of the dragons are named after gemstones like Ruby, Emerald, Jade, Amethyst, Aquamarine and not to mention precious metals too with silver, gold and copper. I was just thinking of precious gemstones that haven’t been made into production colours and was thinking what about Sapphire?

There are a couple shades of green, purple and red in the dragons and since there is now a lighter blue of Aquamarine, why not a darker shade of blue like Sapphire for the dragons too? Also for the pink that I am hoping to see come out on more dragons, what about either pearly pink like the curlies or maybe rose quartz or another pink gemstone?

Yes,I was trying to stick to naming all of our dragon colors after minerals and metals, but now we have strayed into using all kinds of names for them.

We have been trying to come up with a Sapphire blue dragon color for years and years. I just don’t like the blue pigments we use enough to paint an entire dragon in dark BLUE… TOO MUCH BLUE… WAY TOO MUCH BLUE-
-but I am always thinking about it, mostly because I like the name “sapphire” so much.

I have test painted Turquoise dragons and I kinda like that color, so it is a possibility.

We did pink dragons for awhile, but we called them just “Pink” or “Pink pearl”.

I would love to see Opal colored dragons too! Specifically white opal!

Have you ever seen a “pinfire opal”? wow

Just googled it, and oh..my..goodness! It’s gorgeous! I’ve always said if I ever get my hands on an engagement ring, I want an opal stone! But I’ll take a dragon, or even a pebble animal *wink wink*!

In keeping with the gemstone theme I’d love to see peridot and citrine dragons. They whole dragon doesn’t have to be painted in the same color. The belly scales and wings would be a lighter color and the topline darker. I can just picture a yellow and cream colored dragon with green eyes 😀

Just throwing this out there – Tiger’s eye – They’ve always been one of my favourite gemstones. Or – Hematite – such a nice shiny black. 🙂

Why not a blue and orange dragon like the one on the front page (Blue Flame) but add more orange and maybe some darker blue. It wouldn’t be sapphire though anymore but it would be a nice blue color. I have the Blue Flame old warrior and he’s wonderful!

“Twilight” that Olympia did was gorgeous too. I know you couldn’t do exactly that color but something close would be good.

Peridot, definitely peridot!! 😀 I’d love to see sapphire too.
