Description I've been trying to acomplish many things lately, one of them being, one of them being switching to alternate, mediums, less expensive than prismas, and the other main one being get back into the habit of drawing dragons and develop my dragon characters further.

seriously, between the ages of like 3 and 12, dragons were all I drew all I thought about and all I spoke about. I spoke about dragons to the point that few wanted to hang around me because all I would do was talk about dragons XD but for some reason my habitual drawing of them waned, but I really want to start changing that....dragons are just one of those things that I love and have always loved, yet I've never known why I love them so much except for the fact that I just do.

god, i gotta stop being so wordy...
anyway, these blokes are ballpoint pen and gel pen with some parts done in marker, because I felt that the effect I wanted could (to the best of my skill) only be rendered in marker.

these guys aren't characters yet, but that may change, but I've decided that dragons, when quarelling with other dragons will fight with their horns, rather than with fire, since fire would have little effect on another dragon, but also because it takes a lot of energy to breathe fire, and doing that would be just too wasteful for fighting over territory or mates.

I think I'm rooting for the blue dragon, since the other one (whom I'm calling Redbrow for the present) seems scarier in appearance, but if you ask me, he's nothing but show. plus I, personally was more pleased with how mr. blue came out.

I dunno, but I think this might be one of my best samples of pen work thus far, but then again, I would still only consider myself a beginner in the world of pen and ink.

all my pen and ink knowledge I owe to

Wow these dragons are beautiful! I love the blend of colours and how you have applied the colour so well, blending in perfectly into another shade. I love it!

Never stop being wordy--not when talking about dragons XD!! And this picture rocks, you should definitely get back to drawing dragons more if this is how yoou draw them usually! This makes me want to get back into my own habit of doing just that!

whoawhoa hold on there trigger!

actually this was drawn in ballpoint pen, just plain old generic ones like you get at the discount shops.

dragon names are a tricky business in Yrd. for one you need to have the right vocal cords to pronounce them XD but i appreciate your helpful spirit.

thanks for the comment! it really brightened up my day ^^

anything can be magic if you know how to use it properly!

i actually liked the name Nerendal, although that's probably because it sounds so much like Nerdanel, the wife of FΓ«anor

I'd get along with you very well if you talk about dragons 24/7 I'm pretty much the same but I haven't drawn many dragons for a whole now. Must get back into it.
Awesome drawing too I like both dragons.

PippinIncarnate In reply to Hybrid-Dragoness [2009-01-07 00:05:38 +0000 UTC]

Huh? how'd i miss this comment?

well, I used to talk about them 24/7, but then it started to fade when there was a lot of dragon hype--they were all kinds of dragon t-shirts, movies, calendars about dragons, more and more dragon books were coming out, and in all honesty, because of the pop-culture aspect dragons had achieved, i lost interest. Not entirely of course...dragons are still a huge part of my imagination and who i am, for a good part of my life. I guess when it got to the point that i could be obsessed with dragons and not get made fun of for it, the meaning of my love for them dwindled :C

well thanks! I'm glad you like the drawing! its so refreshing to get meaningful comments from people :3

Whoa... that's like what's going on now at where I am. And I know exactly how you feel But I guess dragons still take a big part in both of our lives.
and your welcome about the comment Your dragons are top-notch.

You did a good job on this. I think the markers and gel pens worked really well.

I, too, loved dragons as a child and drew them constantly. Wish I'd saved some of my drawings from way back then. This was in the 1960s, when dragons weren't really popular like they are now, so it was hard to find anything dragon-related.
