Description A friend of mine requested me to draw & paint his girlfriend and her favorites animal (dolphins) as a X'mas gift.

If i just paint dolphins and girl, i think it will be very boring.. then eventually I decided to include a bit fantasy story. I added a dragons (represented as evil)... that attacking the dolphins, and this girl (my friend BTW)... helps the baby dolphin escape, together with the groups.... My initial thought was in fact want to show one of the dolphin caught by dragon.. but, it's just too mean.. he he.. so, i just leave the dolphins alone..

This is the final artwork. Hope you like it...

I spent about approx. 20 hours
Tool: Wacom Intuos3 & Photoshop 7.0

Comments dan Critz are welcome... Thanks!

I love the job you did on the background. How much time did you spend on it? -_-...I can never draw my own clouds. You're lucky your's turn out so nicely.

Hi... thanks Yume ...

i spent about approximately first 6 hours for the clouds (i guess). I still find some difficulties to make more depth on the clouds.. to create a feeling that when u staring the sky, u feel the clouds on top and all over you... (hmmm.. how to describe it)..

Anyway.. thanks for the comments...

I understand what you're trying to explain. The thing is art is drawn, and the real world is the real thing. You can't always get something drawn to look real.

No problem
