Description present for Mongoose. it looks better IRL but I managed to restore it to close the original quality with photoshop adjustments.

8x10 inches acrylic painting.

I take commissions on these, $5 each, plus shipping~

Good god that is too cheeeeeap for amazingness at this leveeeeel D': I'd pay so much mooore and fff I'm so tempted to commission you again but you already draw me so much stuff and I'm almost broke but SOMEDAY vcuhnfhhjj I have like...a shrine of stuff from you in my room hurrhurr <3

BUT ANYWAY.
Dayum the fact that these are always lineless and that they have so much shape and depth just...amazes me.
Holy crap this is beautiful, the shading on the whites looks splendid, the use of blues and grays together is just amazing. I especially love the shaping and shading around the face and nose, you really gave him a 3d look here with things like the highlight to accent the raise where his nostril is, and his eyelid...and...yeah...
loving the detail in the ear, that looks super neat, and the slight texturing effect you've made with the way you painted his horns and neck scales. The purple horn and spike things look awesome as well...almost like crystals o:
Ffff HOW YOU GET SO MUCH DETAIL IN THOSE CHAINS? They're so small but still so detailed with highlighting and shading!
His eye is super expressive and beautiful, and his hair looks so flowing and pretty.
Love the simplicity of the background, especially your use of light behind the character with the darker shades encircling his profile

BASICALLY: AWESOME <3 You never fail to amaze me

haha I forgot how much I charged before so I just went ahead and said $5, I get few commissions at this point so I won't raise prices again until more people want commissions
we just commission each other a lot.. it's more like art trades.

thankssss bro asfgh that 3d look/linelessness is harrrrd

I have a very tiny brush :3

Egon-Riker In reply to mercurybird [2011-04-25 02:35:18 +0000 UTC]

It came out great. Nice organic look to it too. It's not often that I see dragons of that style done with traditional media.

Venerabela [2011-04-25 01:43:46 +0000 UTC]

ahhh! WANT COMMISSION D: Whats your paypal? I'll send you a ref of my dragon <3

mercurybird In reply to Venerabela [2011-04-25 02:27:42 +0000 UTC]

oooh exciting! my paypal is wackadooh@hotmail.com, but let me just note that it's like an extra $2.50 for shipping, so it'd be a total of $7.50 for the whole thing. that is, if you want the original shipped(originals look a million times better BD)
can't wait to get started, got an extra 8x10m canvas handy and everything I'll try to get it done within a week or two.
and if you have any requests for what you'd like the commission to look like, let me know when you send the ref 'cause otherwise I'm gonna get started right away.
