Description Started to go down the queue of drawings I owe people. This is for ~Shirunen . It's her RPG character Rurouni Cooper as a wannabe-easternish dragon. The character is originally a wolf, but I couldn't resist drawing him like this. I love this kind of dragons. They are elegant, one with the wind and I can twist their bodies into interesting poses. ^^

Well, originally the wolf-Cooper doesn't have a mane, but I couldn't imagine the dragon version of him without such, so I made him one, and borrowed his eye color for it. You could say that I inked the outlines of the real character and left my own additions uninked. Makes an interesting effect, neh?

(Yeah, no background. This is a trade and I almost always ask my trade partners to leave it out so I wouldn't have to worry about it either. ACEO trades are different, though)

It looks like the Dragon from Spirited Away.

Cool. But I wonder....Do dragons like this ever accidentally tie themselves in knots because they're so long? That'd be funny.

Oh my. What a beautiful picture. I'm in love with it. I love the vibrant colours and then how the dragon/wolf is grey and silvery. Great job. I was wondering If I could use it as a role play Character? You'd get all the credit, and a link with the picture directing people to this page with the picture on it.

Aww, thank yous. ^^
Unfortunately I can't give you the permission to use this character, as it is a fan art of someone else's existing RP character. If it was mine, sure, but I don't dare to give away a character that doesn't belong to me.

Night-Time-Howler In reply to Paperiapina [2009-12-11 14:51:20 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I understand that. Think it would be alright if I asked the person who's using it as an rp character if I can use it the same way? If so, may I have their name so I may ask. But man, I love that picture

Sure that's okay. I don't mind it when people use my poses for reference. After all, you can't copywright a pose anyway. ^^

Nice drawing, by the way.

Paperiapina In reply to sassyeggs [2007-07-23 15:10:06 +0000 UTC]

Asking is never stupid in my opinion. I think the letters ACEO come from Art Cards for Exchange the Originals or something like that. It's 2,5 x 3,5 inches size piece of paper where you draw something, like someone's character as a miniature sized drawing/painting that you can trade with someone else who has made you similar card or sell it. Good examples can be seen in ADEO Furs Xchange at livejournal [link]

And as usual, your ability to capture such an elegant flowing with the wind pose astonishes me.

I love what you did with her character, the eastern dragon style looks wonderful indeed

Voi ei miten kaunis. Siis. Tuo asento, kuten sanoit, justiin tuulen kanssa yhtä ja niin leijuvainen ja oih. Rakastan tuota pään, kaulan ja takajalkojen seutuvaa, niissä on selkeä sisiliskomainen muoto. Meillä on jossain joku vanha n. 20 minuutin piirrettypätkä tän tyyppisistä lohikäärmeistä. Siinä oli semmosia eri elementtejä ja ne sitten lenteli kaikki alla ja piti huolta kaikesta jne. Tosi ihana ja itämaiseen tyyliin rauhottava katella. Sun kyllä joskus pitäis nähdä se, ihan sun tyylinen ois. ^_^

Oooh, sen pätkän mie haluaisin kyllä nähdä! Muistatko yhtään minkä niminen se oli? Jos sen vaikka löytäisi joltain nettisivulta tai jotain.

Jazfox In reply to Paperiapina [2007-04-04 14:08:36 +0000 UTC]

En muista sen piirrettypätkän nimeä yhtään, se oli joku todella ufo, eikä mitenkään erityisen tunnettukaan taida olla. Joku suomalainen naisääni oli dubattu siihen päälle kertomaan kaikkea. Mutta se oli tosi kaunis, justiin niin kiinalainen. '_' Meillä on kyllä se jossain VHS:llä tallennettuna, ajattelin kaivaa sen esiin. Jos siinä mitään tietoja on, niin annan sulle heti!
