Description Oh my gosh, I can't believe this was featured in DeviantArts news! You can see it or read about it here! [link]

Well, I knew that I needed a break from wolves, and wasn't in the mood for people. So I decided to draw a dragon. I really and pleased on how this came out. All the textures and all. There are a few flaws with the claws, but lets not mention those The water didn't pick up on the scanner, but thats ok, I just want you to realise that its there. XD Well, not much to say. about 4.5 hrs?

Art and dragon (c) Me, Aki

Great job on the coloring, I see nothing wrong with the claws, and the water looks great. I hate how scanners don't pick up what you want them too though. Is this with colored pencil?

Yeah, I figured out why the water didn't come out great. I used a non photo blue colored pencil -____-

Looks great - stay away from that nonphoto blue - it is made NOT to be picked up by photocopy machines.
BTW - was that MY scanner you kicked?!

It looks really good. Good job! You can sort of see the water. Once you know its there you can see it easier and use your imagination to enhance whats already there.

Great work, i like!

Yeah, I'm starting to learn to mix complemetary colors together to get a certain look. Its too bad the water didn't come out a little better. Thanks!

haha. i dont have a problem with my scanner as much as i do with my camera. some of my pics are too big to scan, so i have to take pics of them, and my camera always makes them darker (PARTICULARLY the background). UGH!!!!!
