More of the dragon!

So, the dragon is shaded. I shaded it first because I wanted it to have the most intense sahes and now I can fit the background around it ^___^

Still not sure on my colour scheme. . .







It's still going to need a lot of work in some places, but I'll do that once the whole thing is shaded.

how's it looking...? How's it looking?!

Beautiful!

You working in watercolors, I'm guessing? I've never been able to use those with any degree of effectiveness (always stuck with acrylics) I'm so jealous of people who can though. It always looks so AMAZING!

Can't wait to see how it ends up! Though for colors, I vote not green, because that's done to death ^_^

This layer is ink and then watercolours will be put on top of it ^___^ And don't worry, he's not green!

that dragon looks awesome! I love the fact that you can see actual lizard aspects to him. Makes me want to cuddle his head ^_~

He does look kinda cute ^___^ And I'm glad I'm getting the...'volume' to him that I wanted to.

I like the pattern you have going on for its skin. Are the wings going to be folded a bit, or is that the extent they can be opened?

[identity profile] luco-millian.livejournal.com 2007-08-15 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
They are folded, so they can open some more, but they're still small for his size. he's still growing ^^;

That's so awesome! I like how it's a mix of the "classical" medival dragon and now-a-days lizards.

Yup! i kinda like working with this type of design. It just makes it more appealing...to me at least >_>

I wish I could give him to you too hug. He's such a sweet little guy ;__;

Oh, what a handsome fellow he is. I want to skritch his neck folds.

[identity profile] luco-millian.livejournal.com 2007-08-15 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sure he would love ^____^

Wow! He's starting to look really good. You're really good with water colours, but then again all your work is amazing. Even without colour its still really good.

I think I'm liking it better now that it has colour on it...and i already have plans for another big painting with a dragon ^^; So hopefully this one goes well. .

Ooooh... he's so pretty!

Isn't he? *is rather fond of her little dragon*

The shading is really nice. I'm fascinated by the textures I'm seeing--wrinkles, folds, sharp, sharp claws.

Have you thought about possibly doing the whole thing in shades of grey, black and sepia?

[identity profile] luco-millian.livejournal.com 2007-08-15 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I was thinking about that, but i screwed up a bit, so I'm going to bring this one to colour like I originally planned. But I'll know what to do next time i want to do a grey(or brown)-scale painting.

how's it looking? Fantastic.

Do we know if it is a boy dragon, a girl dragon, or an it dragon yet?

[identity profile] luco-millian.livejournal.com 2007-08-15 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
It is a young male ^___^

Squeee!
I thought he looked like a weester. (I also think he looks like a gentleman, which is quite a talent to maintain when one must eat messily. <3)

Aww... he looks like some Wizard's pet lizard, who's been around the magic so long that he's been "upgraded" a bit. He also looks a bit witsful, maybe his wizard got lost?

Will concur with many others, I really like the diamond pattern worked into the scales.

I like that little idea! Might have to expand on it a bit at a later date...if you don't mind?

looks terrific. i love the iguana influence.

*grins* I had too much fun drawing lizards and i guess I got a little carried away with him. But I'm glad it works.
