Description When Lady was here, we thought up a good challenge for the both of us. Make a list of your characters, number them, go to the random number generator, and let it pick one of your characters.
Additionally, we went to a random emotion generator XD *I know, sad huh, lol* and let it pick an emotion.
Then take a timer, put it on one hour, and start thinking and sketching.

I got Lanzarus (Laquaza dragon on the left side), being cheerful (lol), and Morgreph (Calvar dragon on the right side) being angry (it was originally courageous, but that was too hard for me ._.).
I must say this was harder than I thought. I am a slow sketcher, I realise now, and I wasted half an hour on both of them, thinking about what I wanted to draw. Now I see that indecisiveness is in my way, I need to get somewhat more impulsive.
Also, I played a bit around with colors and textures in photoshop, to make them look prettier ^w^

Lanzarus, Morgreph, Laquaza/Calvar dragon species, this artwork ©

I don't own the textures, lol xD

ps. I swear I put humans on that list too D: but the random generator apparantly wanted to spare me XD
Also, perspective is a real bitch -_-

Wow, crazy perspective on the left one 8D I think I have a bias towards any creature with a skull mask (can't help it, it looks so cool )

Thanks Fen :3
Haha, I know <3 I love skulls! And the Calvardragons actually have a double skull, not really a mask. It's another layer of bone

I really like Morgreph, I want to see more calvar dragons from you *hint hint nudge nudge*
I think the perspective would've worked better if Lanzas neck plates were larger at the head and smaller at the body, at the moment they're too similar in size.
But I really like the effect, it gives the illusion of that Lanzarus has a really looong neck ;3

Seems like a fun challenge

Yupp
He's kinda a villain protagonist or perhaps a rather evil anti hero.

*info dump*

To him the end justifies the means and the quicker something gets done the better.
And all the rules are followed to the letter, mercy is not acceptable.
His outward personality is cold and commanding, he has no patience for failure and due to his (former)position he can execute those who defy him.
To others he is a remorseless killer but a good commander.

He does feel for his victims but he's learned to ignore most of his feeling in favor of becoming even more effective.
What he's done still plagues him and that was one of the reasons why he became a teacher, he feels like he still serves his country but does not need to end others lives anymore. (but he still does if they get too disobedient).

Later in his life he falls in love with another teacher who is secretly a spy from a rival country...

*end*

And speaking of my character and Charadon I'll most likely be uploading a pair of maps over the area around Thabmoor (Camels home town) and Ryflank (Where Mael currently lives).

I can believe that they took an hour. A lot of deatail and they look like they would take quite a lot of skill to draw well.

That's a cool idea for a challenge I might want to try it out sometime
I like the look of Morgreph and then the awesome foreshortening you have going with Lanzarus. And the emotions are pretty spot on, though Lanzarus looks more at peace/content, but I guess that's similar to cheerful so it works xD
