- Here's a combination of a ton of really cool details, behind-the-scenes info, and mistakes I've caught from the Wings of Fire covers! While a good majority were discovered initially by the Wiki, some are of my own finding -- and you won't find them much elsewhere!

Back from my quick break! Glad today's video could be about the covers, they're genuinely some of the main reasons that got me into WoF :D
Question of the day: What popular snack have you never tried before?
My answer: Takis and Flamin' Hot Cheetos
Lays, takis, mountain lightning (tho that's not popular)
blue takis. i already tried regualr takis and decided they were too much:'D
golden Oreos
I’ve never tried takis lol
@@BotanRice would not recommend them
Fun fact: When Tsunami was trying to convince Coral to let her guard the Hatchery to catch the killer in exchange of Webs and Riptide freedom, she says "Even if i save your last heir?"
So probably that's why the title The Last Heir was an option
Ohhh, you're right!! :O
Maybe in an early draft Anemone was supposed to die, leaving Tsunami as ‘the last heir’
The skywing arena would've been really cool in the background of first book, and could've given reference for what it looked like in the graphic novels! Such a cool opportunity missed. And I always thought that darkstalker in the graphic novels was through what moon thought he looked like, and maybe could've not known different, and that's why there was dull horns. Same goes for his eye color, we know their not red, but this was in moons mind, so it could be anything.
Fr!!
The art is so beautiful. Even though there are quite a few mistakes, the artist, Joy Ang, did an amazing job!
Agreed
This is one of the main reasons why I love WoF
The attention to details, the lively-ness in the art
So real 🔥
I LOVE the Luna and Swordtail limited edition poster. I'm actually really jealous cuz it looks amazing, and is the only official art of Swordtail we have.
FR!! I didn't even realize it existed, I would've freaking loved it for my room
PRODUCTION MISTAKES are always super funny to look at! (Unavoidable and interesting)
They are fr!
'Oh, if you never realized, is that we see blue with his wings here'
Oh WOW, such what a amazing detail. I never would have noticed.
I just meant because a lot of people forget he never got them in the book 😭
Why r u so pressed over a harmless statement 😭
I was being sarcastic, I found Doges statement very funny 😭
The fact that all these comments end with 😭
@@Ivybug61fr😭
A few things I noticed; 1. Sundew is missing the woven bags that are on her body and 2. Some of the dragon tribes are shown to have elbow webbing on their wings, but some of the dragons on the covers are missing this entirely
True
I think Starflight’s eyes were brown due to the reflective nature of most pupils/irises (due to him being surrounded by glowing orange, red light and smoke, it reflected a brown or orangeish colour)
On The Poison Jungle cover there is also a dragon stuck in a sundew another thing is the Anemone is not of the paperback version of Talons of Power
Be honest, I hate my twisted horns
😔
Poor Beanstalker
Oh poor pea-I mean Darkstalker
@@SprinklesxMoon😂
Awh, poor Dinklestinkle…
I genuinely believe that starflight's eyes, starflight's tongue, and winter's ear colouring is just due to reflection, from the volcano and the sun ray reflecting from the ice respectively. Also most of the pre-final versions of the covers are just better ;-;
I’d like to point out another thing that no one else seems to ever mention, on the lost continent’s cover the hives in the back just look WAY too small, like sure they look big enough to hold a few dragons, but they’re nowhere NEAR big enough to have full on neighbourhoods and mansions inside them, just by looking at the hives compared to the dragons beside/in them you can easily tell they’re way too small then they are depicted in the books.
I think it’s just perspective. They’re really far in the background.
@@L-ghtlessSky but you can see dragons IN the hives in the cover
It’s a thing called distance. Things will look smaller in the background because the main focus is closer up.
Omg that’s what I’m always saying
I have a few more details-
-In the poison jungle book, as well as a dragon in a Venus dragon trap, there is also one in a sundew near the left
-In dragonslayer, on the wall of spiked heads, there are a few glory-colored rainwing heads on spikes
-In Darkstalker, his eyes are portrayed as a light grey when they are a dark black-ish color.
(I may have got some things wrong btw)
maybe those are scarlet’s attempts to make the glory head she flings in book 8
This may just be a physical choice to prevent distraction from the dragons, but none of them are shown to have many (if at all) necklaces. Anemone should've had her 'soul-protecting' necklace, Snowfall should've had the seven weapons she hid on her armour, and Sandstorm is missing his armour entirely. Also, you forgot to mention on the cover of Dragonslayer, you can see Ivy holding a dreamvisiter, the Weirdling tower in the background and many decapitated dragon heads, some of which resemble a HiveWing's or even Glory's! For such a controversial book, Dragonslayer has a really good cover!
Edit: Just to clarify, I was referring to Dragonslayer as a "bad book" because a majority of WoF fans (including me) hated the book. It is totally valid if you enjoyed Dragonslayer, I'm glad if you did, but personally, I disliked the book
Ooh, I hadn't even picked up on that!
What is this Dragonslayer slander 😔
@@osheridanYeah. My unpopular opinion is that I loved dragonslayer. It was very fun
I personally love Dragon Slayer but I didn't even pick up on those details!
@@TempestFNG same!
on the far left side of the poison jungle cover you can see a dead dragon trapped in a sundew plant
Oh no :(
I had no idea about the Lost Heir title changes, And I hadn't seen the pre-final covers for most!
I'm always as excited for the covers as I am for the books
I think my favorites are The Hive Queen and The Dangerous Gift
The pre-final covers are so interesting! We've only gotten them for a few of the books, but they provide a lot of insight as to the original ideas
I cant wait for the show coming out on Amazon!!
Same!
Fun fact: Not all the trees are gone in Pantala! In one part, it says, “wiped out *most* of the trees.” Also, if you look at the map, there are actually a lot of trees to the left and bottom of Beetle Lake! And, ofc, the Poison Jungle!
On the Poison Jungle cover, there is actually another LeafWing that was caught by a carnivorous plant. But from the looks of it, they are not alive….
Hint, look at all the sundews. RIP nameless LeafWing
There's one more mistake on Qiblis cover. In moon rising Qibli's earing was ripped out by icicle. In the cover of his book, the earing was there.
Super cool video! All of the covers are so cool!
Sucks that lost continent is one of my favorite covers... but it looks really good in my opinion, but thats just me.
Great video, keep it up :)
Thanks for explaining the covers. I love the series but have never read the books simply listened to them since I am visually impared so hearing what the covers show and don’t show was pretty fun.
Did you know that the back cover of the dark secret is the front cover of the winglet quartet? I noticed that when I was watching one of your videos with the dark secret as your background!
I never really paid attention to Tue covers but now I feel like I should! I didn't know some of these facts! Thanks a lot, Moon!
Ofc!! :D
You'd also be surprised to notice how many dragons are on them. Some have like 30 😭
Lol that's a lot of dragons for a cover@@Dogloverlikesdoge
12:38 Sandstorm?! I thought that was Oasis all this time 🤣 Awesome video!
Tui confirmed it was Sandstorm, but if it was Oasis that'd honestly be sick
7:12 BRO!!! I LOOOVE THE LOST CONTINENT COVER
Awesome!
The Dangerous Gift's cover is probably one of my favorites!
I didn't spot half of the details until you mentioned them in the video. I tried looking for them before you said what was wrong but didn't notice. My favorite cover has to be the moon rising cover! Cant wait to see more :) Welcome back from your break btw!
I counted every dragon on each of the covers here’s the numbers:
Dragonet prophecy has 17
Lost heir has 5
Hidden kingdom has 19
Dark secret has 26
Brightest night has 12
Moon rising has 4
Winter turning has 6
Escaping Peril has 7
Talons of power has 7
Darkness of dragons has only 1
The lost continent has 52
Hive queen has 16
Poison jungle with 12
Dangerous gift has 46
flames of hope has only 2
Darkstalker legends has 1
And lastly dragon slayer has 22 counting heads and no humans.
Btw Cricket on the Barnes and Nobles cover has a tail stinger
There is also a leafwing coiled in a sundew plant on the cover of the 13th book.
I finall ygot back into wings of fire and forgor what channel i used to watcnh, but now i found you again :3
Very interesting! I've never seen or heard of any of the pre-final covers, seeing the older covers is super interesting! One thing I want to say, though, is I don't think NightWings have ever been described to have a "necklace" of scales around their neck. I checked the descriptions in the NightWing's guide at the start of the Arc 1 books, and couldn't find anything!
10:21 idk if you noticed the but the other leafwings in the background don’t have tail leafs! Also I just noticed- a leafwing is stuck in a real sundew.
I didn't realize one or a few of them, but I just forgot which ones lol!
I've never really noticed the part about the Gift of Vision. I just assumed it was too small for the printers to put any detail into 😅.
But I agree that the Moon Rising cover is absolutely amazing. It also gives a sense of scale to Jade Mountain, because you have to remember that only some of the largest caves on Earth (at least the size of stadiums) can contain their own forest ecosystems
if you look closely you actually realise darkstalkers horns do "twist" just not in the way you expect. they do more of a spiral with the inner-facing side slowly being turned to face back just like a rams excluding the coiling shape that we call twisting. (if you look at the base of the horn it bends "into" the horn and has horzontal lines like belly scales and the further up you go the more outward they face, indicating a twist in the horn) meaning the horns are under more of torsion rather than being wavy like or coiled like a spring
This is super neat! I also always look forward to your polls 😁 in terms of 3:04 that nightwings have black tongues, as an artist I believe it is black and that it's just the lighting of the lava reflecting on Starflight's tongue 😊 it could have been darker since part is hidden inside his mouth but otherwise if u compare his scales below that appear red, it's the same red as the tongue's light.
Also in overlay mode (in digital art), colors appear vivid on black so maybe that is why it looks red if the red light is reflecting on his black tongue. (Not hating, again super neat 😊❤)
Edit: and we can also see the tip of his forked tongue appears black which makes me believe even further it is lighting :)
As for his eyes, green and red make brown and since there's red lighting around his eyes maybe that made them brown by accident who knows :D
i absolutely agree with this!
I can imagine the 2 leafwings in the poison jungle cover being mandrake and nettle and you can't change my mind
You should do the graphic novel covers! As they're extremely beautiful as well!
If you look closely at the poison jungle cover, sort of near and on the left side of the dragon in the Venus dragon trap, you can see another dragon that is presumably dead in another plant
As an artist I find it so funny to see little tiny mistakes that even professional artists make in their drawings. You don't even see those mistakes until you look back at the art or if someone points them out, and once you see them you feel so dumb cause you didn't see it and it was GLARING into your face 💀. Great vid as always! My fav cover is also the Escaping Peril cover.
Something I've never seen mentioned is that on the cover of Dragonslayer, we see a RainWing head at the Sandwing Stronghold!
10:08 also there is a dragon trapped by sundew, i think that's what its called. Its on the left side of the cover, the plant is bigger than the dragon and all you see is the tip of the tail and wing and a bit of its head
There’s a minor mistake here, the royal patterns are found in all royal sea wings, not just the females. Shark is noted to have them because he’s related to Coral, and turtle is accurately portrayed with them on the cover.
On the hidden kingdom you missed three mistakes. One is that glory is missing the extra wing piece in the corner of where the wing starts to go up (idk how else to explain it). The second is that her eyes were described as blue in the books, but they show as green. Lastly, on her shoulders it’s supposed to fade yellow to that greenish colour. Hope people will see this!
Mistake on WoF Legends 2: RainWing head on spike;RainWings did not even participate in the war.
one thing you didn't mention is that on Sunny's cover some of her scale patterns align much more with nightwings, which i find a super cool nod to her father!!
I also noticed on starflights book one of the nightwings in the background is mossing their face
Its corrected in the cover of the four mini stories (i dont remember what theyre called haha) but its really funny
I have another one for the dargonslayer book! In the background, it looks like glory head on one of the spikes.
9:58 There is also a LeafWing in a sundew too, not just a venus dragontrap.
I spotted 9 Leafwings on Snudoo’s cover!
And despite all of them, we all love the covers
I just noticed that on the lost continent cover, one of the silk bridges to another hive disappears when it goes behind Blue’s wings
Yeah, and qibli is missing his earring in the winter turning graphic novel. But honestly, even though there’s mistakes, the covers are still masterpieces.
With Starflight's tongue in his cover, i always thought it was the lighting of the lava, it just made sense too me
Also with Dragonslayers cover, i'm not sure if this counts as an error, but when i looked closely at the cover, i sworn i saw a silkwing head on the strongholds wall
Needless to say i think this is a good analysis video, i just wanted too share my thoughts
I have the hard Copy of the flames of hope and didn't even realize Sky and Wren were on it omg 😭
Fun fact: On the first graphic novel aka The dragonet prophecy the graphic novel, one mistake is Clay's eyes are yellow but his real eye color is brown.
The silk also disappears behind blue’s wing, in the lost continent cover.😅😅
Some of these things are probably lighting too, like sky’s eyes might look more amber bc of the warm lighting coming from Luna
Cover fact: Sunny in fact DOES have the silver neck scales in her cover, I’m surprised none of the Dod figured that out
Make a graphic novel one next!!
6:22 anemone is also cut from paperback
Fun fact! The picture of Luna and swordtail is in the ultimate guide
11:32 YES! I was so bothered when I realized that was Sky! Wasn't he supposed to be pale bcof his lack of fire? :0
The sundew also caught a leafwing
3:04, reflection of the orange-red glow making his tongue look that way?
actually an interesting thing about the dragon slayer cover is on the walls of the palace you can see tiny little heads on the spikes and even weirder is that some are spikes from tribes that would never be there like one of them looks identical to Glorys head and there were some Skywing ones too
on the cover of winter turning the icewing palace is by the ocean but on the dangerous gift cover it is on a cliff
Fun fact:one of the types of heads in the background of dragonslayer is glory's head
i would've gotten the poster w/ luna and swordtail if i had just decided to buy it:'D
In the dangerous gift cover there is only 2 moons instead of three witch is said meny times over and over again in the books
I got to stop the video the shape of leaf wings would be distorted and I do see some butterfly like ones. Also the pre design of the first book the arena would be Disa portioned.
I still take offense to Qibli not having his scar
😭
Recently the Winter Turning Graphic Novel Spine has two "i"' in Turning spelt "Winter Turniing" not sure if they fixed it yet but if you bought it on release it should be there.
one thing that I noticed is in the lost heir there is a character named Lagoon and in darstalker legends the seawing queen before pearl is queen Lagoon, so considering that Tui has never repeated a name before, I would say it is a mistake
tui has repeated names before, its not a mistake. probably unintentional tho (like it wasnt done to highlight parallels or anything)
Tsunami is also missing her royal patterns in the cover
I think there was a dragon trapped in a sundew on the poison jungle cover
Hope for future videos:
Sundew Hivemind Part 2 (Yes I am still holding out hope that you will do this)
Submit your ocs (I have been wanting this for FOREVER)
Edit: Oh hey thanks for noticing this!
The royal markings are also on the males as well- Ex: Shark
something that always bothered me is the absence of tsunami’s legs on the lost heir cover.
Okay, I know i'm a month late to this video, but I just noticed that the Dreamvisitor that Ivy (I haven't read Dragonslayer yet, but I think its Ivy) is holding is really small compared to Sandstorm. How could Darkstalker choose to enchant something so small? And, in The Dark Secret graphic novel, the Dreamvisitor is big enough for Starflight, a dragon, to hold. So, why is it big enough for Starflight and Darkstalker, but also small enough for a scavenger?
this is a long comment- I just had to say something about this though. Idk if someone already pointed this out
10:31 I thought that caribou was lynx to be honest
edit: 11:50 That poster is right above my computer monitor!
you noticed the dragon cought in the venus but next to it you can see a dragon tail traped in a sundew
Here’s another mistake on the poison jungle-the flytraps are described as pink,but are purple
Scarlet in escaping peril: 👌
This isnt a mistake, but the cover of the winglets is an extension of starflights cover
HEEEEY! what if when blues graphic novel comes out (HOPEFULLY), he has wing buds instead of his wings! :D
I could be wrong and she just wasn't wearing it at the time but,Sundew is missing her pouches!
I didint know turtle was in the book 6 cover before now
👀
Well e.g you can not have Quibli without has scar mostly at least the graphic novel has more very good art & storyline layout after all one misstakes dose not mess up books in the bigger picture
Sterflite's tong might be pink because of the light
Actually, Perils eyes where blue, but you could mostly see white
where is my pouch with my animus objects on book 9 cover? 🤨
I don't mind that Blue has his wings on the cover of Book 11
That whole point of having your protagonist on the cover is to show the readers what they look like &, while he doesn't have his wings in THIS book, he does in every other book he's in
So it makes sense to me
Perl is my favourite caricter
Nah I just realized the rock in the Brightest Night cover looks like a talon
Very is a very good video
