Description Someone else asked me about poses, and I love to do action thumbnails for my own amusement. I made a page of them and thought they'd be interesting for you to look at. They aren't supposed to be really detailed or even perfectly anatomically correct; they're just to show motion.

It looks like you might have used cats for your inspiration. Very fun action!

These are amazing! This will help me a lot, exactly-anatomically-correct or not. |D

Would you ever do something like this with dragons but with running?
I have no idea how my dragon is supposed to look while running. D:

Wonderful poses, I love montages like this! Once again, I am inspired for poses to put my belvoed Zenvaa in! *Cuddles Zen.* I can draw him, but I'm terrible at figuring out poses, and I'm always on the lookout for ideas/references to use... You pieces are fantastic, Hibbary!

You don't mind if I eyeball the anatomy of these for practice, do you? You seem to have grabbed every angle and the build is just about right for what I've got in mind. I promise to credit you if I do something with a similar pose.

I am soooo using this for reference! I love your sketches and concept art stuffs! They are always so helpful to me!! I used to use your TLK expression sheets for reference aaaaalll the time. Anyways, I guess my point is I love your art and I just wanted you to know that it makes a big difference in helping us crappy struggling artists to learn structure and anatomy.

Necromantic-Deity [2004-02-02 23:09:50 +0000 UTC]

Again...very informative. I wish I could draw creatures as well as you. My friend keeps telling me I need to practice but I still try and make her draw them. These dragons are so cute and catlike that I just want to grab them and hug them. I've always imagined dragons more reptilian like with scales and leathery wings but I love how you portray them. Very unique.

*laughs* did you get another dtf for sketchy stuff? *grin* well your sketches do have such a freedom to them, lovely flow and definitely capture movement. Some of thsoe poses are intriguing me so much.... I rather hope you eventually take a few and make them into full drawings.

Oh these are exquisite! I see a lot of cat influences in these. But then, Dragons and cats are extremely similar in their form and motion. Excellent job! Very expressive poses and so full of motion!
