Dragon!

[luco]

So, remember how I said I wanted to try painting again? Well I've started this afternoon ^___^ And I'm trying to do a little dragon. So if anyone is interested, you can see the progress so far >_>; Not much, but kind of interesting?






So first...I had forgotten how to draw a decent dragon, thus i spent a few hours just sketching these guys! it was alot of fun and as a side-note...I always do rough sketches like this is pen when i can, because it allows you to focus on the drawing, getting the gesture and movement right simply because you can't correct small details like you could with a pencil....

It's my preferred, study-sketch method ^__^



Next i got my drawing planned out and drew it onto the watercolour paper!



And then did a rough outline with a nearly dead micron pen!



Now, this is the first layer of ink done with a brush.....I'll be doing all the shading in ink and then putting colour over top. Wish me luck?

It looks a little blah right now because I haven't added any line quality or anything. Hopefully it looks good when it's done.


I think...I'm just going to play in Open canvas now >_> I need a break and that needs to dry. . .

It looks really good and all your sketches are good too! (Seriously, you can DRAW and that impresses me to no end.) I'm looking forward to seeing what colors you go with.

*laughs* Yeah, but I can only draw and not much else ^^;

And I think I know the colours I'm using, but I'm not sure...will have to play with colour schemes once it's shaded. . .
