Character: balloonist spyro

Balloonist Spyro is an unofficial aged up and anthrofied design of Spyro by Nicholas Kole, who is credited as a concept artist for the remastered trilogy, to try and bring Spyro in line with the redesigns of the various adult dragons from the remake of the first game. The red scarf, the thick, fingerless gloves and the aviator goggles (besides the muscular body and biped stance) are signature features of this design, as Spyro has never worn any of these in any of the games. Even when fully naked, the dark purple spiky "beard" adorning his cheeks and neck, the frill (whether or not made of hair) curling into a forelock above the face, as well as the thick, dark eyebrows are distinctive enough to set this design apart from the original.

Note that there is some art showing an "in-between" of the base reignited design and the Kole fanart, which will feature some aspects (below: scarf with partial "beard", and scarf with eyebrows, respectively) in a clear allusion to that design, just not fully realized. These should bear that tag as well.

The name "Balloonist Spyro" refers to how this attire is associated with the balloonists of the first game, implying that Spyro has chosen to become one.
