Description Something more detailed than my first deviation...

So, here is one of my (many) characters. Her name is Véga Lumiris, and she's linked to the star in the lyra constellation whose name she has. I don't think I'll tell too much about her for the moment, too much to say!

Let's talk about the drawing itself! I wanted to draw this dragon in an environment which could represent her constellation, so I went for a quiet and peaceful place enclosed by a forest and rocks, with a clear stream and some ruins to remind past and magic... I also added a faun playing music in the background!
But as Véga is still a terrible and powerful dragon, I wanted her to have a fierce look in the eyes, and I think it's quite ok... But her eyes are a bit too big, it makes her look too "human"... >.<
Also, I'm not fully satisfied about the composition, but anyway, I like this drawing! I spent quite a lot of time on it (don't remember exactly how much). And I'm quite proud of the water, yay!

Done with ink for the lineart, and coloured pencils! Thanks for viewing!

Véga Lumiris (c) me, don't copy etc.!

(P.S.: Sorry for the bad quality, I don't have a scanner yet...)

This is probably one of my favorites. I think the line details that you added really make everything Pop. Wonderful background and characters. I especially like the column and the flowers in the foreground o_O

I know, it's a way to make a contrast between the environment and the bestiality of the dragon! But thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it!

Lovely job on the colouring and details, I love that pillar in the foreground and I also love the way you draw rocks.

Thank you so much! It took me ages before I could figure out how to draw them! XD

Heehee, yeah, I'm still working on it, too. xD

I think I found a nice method for cliffs, but actual rocks are still impossible to me.


You did a great job on them! (By the way, awesome faun too )
