Nice work, dude. Favorite part was the head and the glow from whatever it is that happens to be below it. Wish you did a little more glow to the facial features, something like that, I don't know.

I thought this was a Balrog, but the skin is too cool and...um...slimy(?) for that to be possible. What exactly is it?

Sorry about that, don't know where that came from.

The pose is awesome. Its unconventional and creepy. The color contrast adds a nice touch too, it makes things stand out brilliantly. And the drool. LOL. Perfect piece of detail to add more character to it.

bakura-sama18 [2007-07-12 22:24:09 +0000 UTC]

is it suppose to be Black Dragon, or a own personal view of the Black Dragon? 0.o

either way, it's gorgeous! ^___^

francis001 In reply to bakura-sama18 [2007-07-16 01:41:21 +0000 UTC]

thanks! it was supposed to be a black dragon, but a specific one as specified by the instructions from the art director. which actually didn't really have specific visual requirements. I had a few concept sketches of a black dragon that were done by (I think) Todd Lockwood.

are there things I got wrong?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

bakura-sama18 In reply to francis001 [2007-07-16 15:38:57 +0000 UTC]

alittle yes, just mainly on the dragons tail. It has more of a tail barb, like a scorpions, and the tail has scales on it, otherwise, it's right

sorry for critiquing your work ^^'
