Description
Fanart for one of my all time favourite movies and one of the most underrated movies I know, Dragonheart. Every dragon fan should see it, it is a great movie in every way and Draco is, hands down, the best movie dragon there is. Everyone else can go home.I just rewatched this movie and remembered why I loved it so much. Also, I found out, to my great disappointment, that this movie has so little fanart out there. So I decided to fix it.
People who have seen the movie probably know what I was trying to do here. I think Draco turned out to be a bit too much fleshed out in this picture. I think the color balance is good as it is, but I guess I could've made the constellation part a bit more flat. Ah well, I hope the idea gets through anyway.
I hope you like it!
And watch the movie if you haven't!

Whoa, for real? If you actually do manage to show him I would love to hear what he thinks!

a very beautiful piece! I have to admit when I was a child and watched dragonheart I really cried at the end when he died and became a star with all of the other dragons.
A really good movie, I should watch it again!

Pretty kickass. I love the dazzling array of stars and how you made him seem to fade/blend into the night sky, suggesting he's part of it. Super cool!

Thanks! Yeah, that was the intention, to make the dragon blend into the background. I'm still quite pleased with how it turned out.

This is lovely!
Did you see they made a 3rd movie?

Thanks!
Yeah, I know they made it but I'm still debating whether or not I want to see it. I skipped the second one, heard it was pretty bad.

I've missed this movie so much, it's so near and dear to my hear <3
It makes me so happy to see there are still fans of it out there ;u;

Oh yes. This movie deserves all the love. It's fantastic. I need to rewatch it again.

I need to as well, I miss that movie ;o;Β
Dragonheart just has a special place in my heart that no other movie can fill, it's just one of those movies you know? I watched it as a little kid and it made me so sad when I would tell friends and family about how amazing I thought it was and absolutely nobody knew about it. It deserves so much more attention than it was given <333

Oh my goooosh I haven't seen that movie for years. I need to see it again

I used to watch this movie all the time, but I haven't seen it in, like, 5 or 6 years. I love this movie so much.
π: 0 β©: 1
Same. I think I need to watch it again.

Unfortunately, I had it for VHS, which I don't have anymore.
If I want to watch it now, I'd have to find it online.
π: 0 β©: 1
Aww. Well, I think it should be easy to find. I have it on Blu-ray.

Cool.
Ugh, I'm trying to find an AMV that someone made for Dragonheart using the song Headstrong by Trapt, but I can't seem to find it.

It's looks like the dragons being formed from the star

Yeah thatβs the idea, it was a part of the movie.

Draco lives! Well, at least in our hearts if nothing else.

Draco is THE Dragon. <3
That being said, everyone else can go home.
Beautiful piece! If I only could, I'd put it in a frame in my home! Good job!

I love this concept. It's so heartbreaking, though. ;_;
And those stars are astonishingly great. O.o I agree, he's a bit too solid, but where Draco's wing merges with the sky is done beautifully. I love it all!

Pretty cool idea. And I adore the beautiful host of sparkling stars and galaxies in your night sky. White ink sure is a beautiful medium. Lovely painting.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you! White ink is a very useful medium, but I think it needs to be used in moderation and only when needed. I think if you can make the same effect with paper white you should do it that way rather than applying white ink afterwards, just not to make the picture look too stuffed. I hope you know what I mean. But white ink is definitely apt to making night skies and stars.

I think its amazing and you did a great job

I. LOVE this movie. There is no other movie like it, Draco is the best dragon!
Also.. don't watch the sequel... <(' i hate to say it, i REALLY do.. but the sequel is awful..
π: 0 β©: 1
I agree. And no worries, I have no intention watching the movie. It sounds terrible and I don't want to ruin one of my favourite movies ever with a horrible sequel.
π: 0 β©: 1
It is. The dragon in the new movie looks like freaking justin beiber :/ draco is waaay cooler.
Well i watched the sequel, it didnt quit ruin the movie because it wasnt same characters. So really it did no harm, but i say dont waste ya good time watching it lol

I absolutely LOVED this movie. The second one was... ehhh to me. But I have both on DVD together X3 ah I love draco, and the old movie still brings out a tear or two at the end. This painting is beautifulΒ

I never saw the second one. I own the first one and I watch it every now and then. It's a very beautiful and well made. Draco has such amazing personality, his animation is amazing. All the gestures and expression and his whole being is simply brilliant.
Anyway, thank you!
