Description Sixth in a series of lunchtime/downtime drawings, I began this one at ConQuesT in KC at the end of May and finished the inking at my sister's house in Spain.

I plan to do an unshaded version of this picture for cleaner coloring, but you are welcome to color it meanwhile if you don't mind the shading.

Colors!

Almost got a sense of Falkor from this, dunno how, maybe the swirling in the clouds?
the dragon dance series are very cool.

Every dragon that ever appeared in a book or movie has wound up in my headspace. Details come out here and there all the time. I'm not a bit surprised this reminds you of Falkor. He was one of my first favorites.

I loved him in the original movie.
I know I should've asked first, I coloured him if you'd like a look.

LOL - Yeah, the head is on a weird angle so it's a little hard to tell...

That is really one detailed piece and it just flows all over the canvas! I can see some different cultural influences in the design and it's quite well done! Most excellent!

Nothing enriches a dragon like a multicultural experience. Thanks very much!

Wow, this might be my favorite out of your Dragon Dance pics so far! Just something about this one seems really elegant and refined... Maybe it's the whiskers... Or maybe it's the super-amazingly-awesome Pantene Pro-V hair!

Excellent work, my friend!

LOL LOL... I love drawing those long tails, but in retrospect I now realize that none of this series of dragons could get off the ground with those proportionately dinky wings.

...Oh, wait. Forgot to account for Magic, to which the laws of physics do not apply. SAVED!
