Description This was a request by Mage-Summoner on Gaia. I'd never done a dragon before, figured I'd give it a whirl. It was actually quite a bit of fun, and much easier than I expected!

*luffs on the dragy* I still need to give him a name.
Totally added to my faves! <3

@ milerubi & twilightwarrior:
Not all dragons need to look like dragons. I'm exceedingly happy with him, him being the dragon. I like when I commission an artist and they pull off what I asked for in a non-typical way. Something that is even more important to me where my green and pink dragons are concerned. After all, who would want 50 dragons that all looked almost identical?

Everyone thinks he looks like a swimmer, by the by. (;

*nodnod* Yes, that's been more apparent to me the more I look at him. Like an aquatic Eastern-ish dragon. <3

I really must name him. I suck at guy names though.

I have to agree with milerubi that it could use some more "fierce" details to be more dragonlike, to me it looks more like a water serpent of some kind, but heck it's a gorgeous serpent! Lovely palette

Heehee this is so much fun! Such a cute dragon. For some reason I imagine it spitting black watermelon seeds instead of fire.

The idea is good but I guess you could have added more details to it, maybe horns or even claws because it is looking more like a lizard than a dragon. Other wise, the pose is very good and elastic.

I don't think adding more details for the sake of details is a good thing, to be honest. If they add to composition...maybe. But doing more for more's sake? Not so much. (;

this is cute, it reminds me of water melon bubble gum.
Is it wrong for me to want to see it blow a bubble?
