Description
EDIT: Now with a splash of color!I think I'm finally really drawing again! (I love that face!)
Finally watching The Nightmare Before Christmas and listening to these songs--> [link] , [link] <-- way to much has resulted in the "Cutter Dragon". It's a place holder name until I can come up with something better.
Ideas? Suggestions?

Great color. I think I would try to add shadows more bluish. dunno why.
anyway I can't help with names. XD; I suck at them myself.

Thanks for the insight, and I'll keep playing around with names. Something good has to come up eventually.

I likes the color. The sorta "foggy" wings look neat.

I'll keep playing around with the finer details, and hopefully by your next art trade sesion I'll have everything worked out.

Is that a good thing, or do you have a better color idea?

Not really. Purple works.
I'd just make sure that she looks almost sickly somehow.

"Sickly"?
I thought something was missing. Thanks for letting me know!

You hadn't seen Nightmare Before Christmas before now? WTF dude?! XD
Anyway, damn awesome dragon here. She's pretty creepy and interesting to look at-I like where you placed the stitches and the thin, skeleton-with-skin look.

At least not all of it in one sitting. I caught bits and pieces of it, but I've never seen all of it at once.
That means a lot coming from one of DA's Kaiju group top dragon artists!

I was thinking a light purple color, something ghostly.

Sounds good.

"She" is just so emo. I need to find a way to enforce her female-ness, but how?...*goes off to ponder this more*

Awesomeness! See that you went with elder futhark or korean for the markings on her arm, good choice.
Macabre is dark and usually dealing with death. In other words, creepy. Think 'Fear Garden' for macabre.

I still haven't quite figured out which will work best with her background, which is still open to interpritation.
Oh, that helps. How do you know these things?

So it's macabre dragon, eh?
And you've never seen Nightmare Before Christmas before until now?

Yep, I managed to put off seeing that movie for 10 years. By the way, what does "macabre" mean anyway?

Bug-Off In reply to BlakerOats [2010-04-01 01:02:33 +0000 UTC]
So what'd you think of it?
"Macabre" is a quality of certain artistic or literary works, characterized by a grim or ghastly atmosphere.

A good poster child for non-CGI animation. The stiff and sometimes creepy movements of the characters adds to the film's personality as a whole. The problem with most, if not all, CGI animated movies is the fact that they're all a little to smooth. It creates a feeling of "same-ness" amoung CGI movies. Not to mention the weird paradox that they're trying to make CGI movies look more and more realistic in their details, yet the movies themselves are always presented in a very cartoony fashion. There's nothing more akward and confusing than a 3 foot wide mustash with each hair individually renderd.
And thank you!

Actually, I think the real reason they do it is to make it easier.
