Description
Hey, I finally got something done.
I randomly sketched this thing while I was bored, liked the concept, and decided to attempt painting it. The key word there is "attempt". I'm really not at all happy with how it came out, but I haven't submitted a painting in a while, so it's going up here anyways. Oh, also his name is Bart.
Art (c) Me.

I'm fine, and busy. That's why I haven't been around much.

I love how its spine is on the outside. The seemingly blur of the sand effect towards the bottom is amazing. The sky is also nicely done. It reminds me of so many wonderful creatures I know.

Well, glad you like the spine. That was basically just a last minute attempt to make the thing a little more interesting.
Thanks for commenting.

Well ya sure made it more interesting. Besides its mouth the first thing I was drawn to was the spine.
Your welcome.

It looks like it's straight out of Zelda! Just one thing, though- the spines curve a little oddly where his neck does- they look to me as if they're about to fall off his back.

lol, yeah I know, I had a lot of trouble figuring out how the backbone was going to work, and also how to color it. I see exactly what you mean, and I'll make sure to fix it if I ever go back to this piece.

Yeah, I got it, thanks a lot Crescent. I'll take those pointers on lighting into deep consideration on the next piece... that's what seems to give me the most trouble. @_@
