Description Full-View please!
I made it a gif this time with a preview. *might edit the other pixelarts later the same way and clean them up too*

The title was sort of inspired by this song: [link] (I misheard something in there and that's how I pulled out a title)
Buuut, I loooove this song 8'DDD It reminds me of Duske and *tigglespits 's Flavenire.

Decided to try another pixel art! I think...cleaning up the lineart was by far the most time consuming part of this 8T;; but it looks good! I AM PROUD. I don't think I have as many jagged edges to cut people with this time. 8'D

Just Duske ([link] ) in his dragon form. I wasn't sure how he was going to turn out, since he's got a pretty smooth texture going on. Also I had no idea how I was going to do the wing texture, but apparently I managed! 8D The pose took a couple tries to get right. *ended up using a reference for it*

I guess he's just lounging. He doesn't actually do this form very often; I just have a lot of fun drawing it. XDD; I love his giant fangs 8F
FUN FACT: The dragon-transformation necklace he's wearing actually also grants a breath weapon. It amounts to a giant laser beam/hyperbeam/shoop da whoop. However, it drains out so much magic on top of what the transformation is draining that it's not really worth it unless you have some extra magic to spare.
The necklace itself also gives a different dragon form depending on who's wearing it. It tends to take and modify traits from their normal forms. (For example, he has good eyesight in normal form, so he got four eyes as a dragon. Also since he's a vampire, he got giant fangs, Yeaahhh! I love the fangs)
Also, there is a reason the arm bands carry over to the dragon form, but I'll save that for ANOTHER DAY~

BEAUTIMOUS~~~~

I LOVE DRAGON DUSKE SO HARD. FFF GIANT FANGS YESSS, also the arm bands I am most curious about!
God this must have taken forever ;o;! You're so good with pixels though! The wings came out really neat and texturey~

WELL BASICALLY with the armbands, once, a long time ago when they were originally made, they had stylized Serpent/dragon heads on them. But since they're made out of gold, so they're soft metal, eventually the details were worn out so they don't really look like anything. They carry over to the dragon form I guess because they have an affinity with the form/necklace for being dragon related. o3o
This took forever. 8|;; Oh yes. Thank youuuu~ ;3;

Man, I don't know how you have to patience to do these things, so huge O_O
But definitely way cool. Those wings are crazy.
Also I've always liked Duske's double eyes.

I don't know how I have the patience either. ;___; They're hard to look at when working on them. (I guess that's why I don't do a whole lot)
But thank you! 8DD
Duske's double-eyes are one of the only things in his dragonform design that haven't changed. :> *likes them a lot too*

Cool! Great job on the wings especially
Pixel art seems very time consuming though, so I'm kinda hesitant to try it myself XD

Thank you! :>
It is WAY, way time consuming, which is surprising since the art isn't that big. XD;; But I reeeeally like how they all turn out. :3 Maybe start with something small?

CharlottaBavholm In reply to Corvarrow [2010-04-25 13:02:17 +0000 UTC]

Yes, and I think people would appreciate pixel art more if they knew how much effort is put into even small images ^^
Perhaps super mario fan art is a good way to begin? XD

Beauteous indeed! :> Your pixel stuff is getting better and better, Ghost! I can see lots of wonderful detail. The lineart looks very nice and clean! <3

Thank you! :> They are surprisingly fun to do, even if they are time consuming. <33 *wants to practice with more, smaller art soon!*
