Description Here is my part of an art trade for . Arthur was rather fun to draw, but he was a bit of a challenge since he would be my first attempt at creating an anthro dragon. I am very pleased with how he turned out even though I could have improved on a few areas like the hands and feet. I think what really killed me was when I colored him in Photoshop. Since I would be dealing with black, I struggled trying to get the highlights I wanted for him, but I had very little luck in it. Oh well.

Anyway, I've known Arthur from a GameSpot union called the Anthro Lounge Union, and I am happy to have done the art trade with him.

Hope you like it, buddy!

Looks good. The tail spikes are very nice. And as far as black goes, it's best to start with gray, and then add pure black for the shadows, and white, or possibly blue for the highlights.

Thanks. I'll try that method next time I work with black.

You're welcome. And it's always good to try to be looser with your shading at first, then sharpen it up.
