Description Probably my last major traditional work (most of the other stuff for birthdays etc is done at 12am on the day of giving. Don't tell them.) A bit unfinished in the bottom right, I forgot why it was so urgent to post it then and not later, think it was a school thing. Can't be arsed piecing together 2 more scans of the A3 page D:

Scanner did not agree with my moon, bastardly thing that it is.

What happened here was I was at a caravan park in summer bored out of my mind, so this was born. Never been able to achieve that level of bored again, and focus is on digital now anyway.

Many thanks to those who have given critique, I appreciate it.

Time < 20 hours.
Materials: pencil, kneaded eraser, electric eraser, tissues for blending.

Thanks for commenting and faving, I'm not really used to drawing full body dragons yet, so it's good to know I'm off to a good start .

The anatomy is jawsome, extraordinary shadings, armour plates and "spikes" add variety to the picture.

Voytess In reply to likestowagtails [2009-04-13 03:54:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a heap for that comment, I try not to use the usual scales because they get really boring after a while. Besides, spikes are just awesome ^^.

Amarevia [2009-04-08 11:10:48 +0000 UTC]

Uwaaa! This is beautiful!! I love it! Really.
The scales look fantastic. The clouds look good too, I wish I could draw them this well.
Awesome work!

Voytess In reply to Amarevia [2009-04-08 12:19:48 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the awesome comments and fav . Clouds are surprisingly easy with pencil, you just have to lose yourself and not give a damn about mistakes. Just layers of blending and erasing I think it was...

Amarevia In reply to Voytess [2009-04-10 18:24:50 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome.
Oh, thanks for the tips! I'll try it out when I get back to drawing with pencils again.
