Description
EDIT: added rain splashesMy entry for bi-weekly contest.
The theme was 'Chinese Dragon".
As these dragons have controll over water (rain, floods etc) I decided to draw one in a wet, swampy type of area. Unfortunately, my hand disagreed with me. It wanted some kind of magical forest thing. So that's what I got. Although it does make sense. If these dragons can controll rains, then areas where they live must be full of green green vegetation. Right?
And, can I just say, that I really really really love SAI? If you asked me to choose between that and PS, I'm pretty certain I would choose SAI (although I did use both to make this).
So yeah, I think that I learn a lot, and it was a really great experience. My only question is do you think that I should include those raindrops? Or do they just looks like an added in afterthought?
And how oh how, do you make things look wet?
As always, critiques. suggestions, hints and tips are welcomed, encouraged and cherished!
Time: unknown, maybe just over 5 hours?
Tools: Wacom tablet, SAI, Photoshop

Well first of all find someone who suffers from ADD. Lock them up in a very dark room with a projector. And show them a couple of 1000 random pics and shuffling for about 24 hours. Then make them eat a ice cream bowl full of orange jelly. It should get them started in the right direction. Don't forget to taze the person at random moments.

Nothing in life comes easily. We have to slave at our works.
