Description
This was a drawing I did after I created THIS SKETCH sitting around bored at a local Denny's resturant. The drawing is of my character alter ego *my baby*, Sayda M. Garrison, in her most resent incarnation for a small DnD game I found myself in XD Her wings are actually bigger, as in the sketch, I just made them small for the asthetics of this image X3But well...I'm probably going to be sticking with this version of Sayda from now on, sept keeping out the crown of horns and the different styled ears. Though, in the DnD game, she's a half-red dragon...but I'm going to keep her scales green as normal for everything else *I had to pick red since green dragons in dnd are crap >_>*
Anywho...I think thats all I have to say about that @___@;;;

Okay, that last comment I made probably didn't make sense because part of it was supposed to go into a reply in your journal. Getting' a little TOO crazy with cut-n-paste me thinks. *feels like a dork*

Oh NO! Not having a scanner blows. I'm waiting for mine to keel over any day now; its geriatric! >.>;;; Well poo, no art from the Sayda for a while. =\ And just when I was thinking about propositioning you for an art exchange.
I know the feeling when it comes to the job situation. I've been there more than once myself. On one hand you enjoy the "time off" and the ability to do what you want, but on the other hand you have to keep up the job hunt, which is a very frustrating and emotionally draining process.
I'm so sad,they nerfed a lot of things about half dragons in D&D 3.5. They don't get their fear arua anymore, you have to buy it as a feat. T_T But they do get scary attributes... O.O Rilrae hits like brick shithouse now! =O And if you wanted green, you could always go with an emerald dragon, they're not bad.
Anyhoo, I -totally- dig this. Is it pencil that you toned digitally and added a few highlights to? Share! I love the effect and would love to hear about the technique.

Yeah, I hear a lot of things changed in 3.5, though I never played for very long before then anyways, so I'm more used to 3.5 then anything else. But there attributes are fun, especially when you are playing in Epic Levels >:3 Sayda is just...o____o is just sick in DnD. Especially now that she has the Dire Charge and Two Weapon Rend feats > :3 I'm a total meat sheild, but it's fun ^.^;;
As for the image, yeah, it's just the pencil sketch with digital colors added. I just altered the pencil color, added a single flat color to the back of the entire image *something that was along the same tone as the pencil color*, and added some highlights off of that, and a little shadow here or there. The rest of the background was stock textures, a little bit of wood paneling, concrete, and...suprisingly....fish meat O_O; But it works :3, and yes, noise filter as well to the entire image to give it sort of that grainy look :3 The streak lines in the paper were just a brush I altered around...don't remember the settings though c___c;

Oh god, an epic level half dragon, that -MUST- be vile. We only just restarted our Dark Gen game so Dark Rilrae is only in her low teens. But still, with Greater Two Weapon Fighting she gets six attacks, and if she hits will all of them (not that hard) she's doing an average of 100 pts of damage. >3 She's such a blender, it's sick, I love it!
Wow, that's so simple! And it's a much more interesting way to present pencil sketches. I may have to experiement a little, and come up with my own (mostly) unique version. Thanks for sharing!

Hehe, blenders are fun indeed :3 Sayda can hit pretty hard with greater two weapon fighting, but we don't do much fighting in this campaign, it's a lot more plot and book keeping then anything else so far, especially since we are in the epic levels *and almost at the end of the campaign ;_:* X3 The last thing we fought was a Demi Lich, and I was pretty usless in that one >_> ;;; But well its all good none the less X3
Yeah, that color style is just based off the same premace as coloring with Charcoal. Have tinted color paper and just build up the highlights instead of the shadows over it. Really simple, fast, and easy to produce :3
