I feel like there's a style shift from the dragon to the architecture and I'm not sure how I feel about that, but the dragon is AWESOME. I love how you went from a looser, softer approach to a heavily outlined method for the face. Really makes it draw the eye and pop!

Thank you for the feedback! I had modeled the tower in Sketchup and then painted on top of it, maybe that's why you get the feeling that there's a style shift.

I love the effect of sliding from something impressionistic to the pop of an almost comic book style. It's really interesting to look at.

When you see something like this coming for you there are three options avaliable: fight-Run-Die...or all three not necessarily in that order

Good. Not as sharp as I'd like, but the composition is excellent.

Wow, which brush have you used for the flames/smokes? That looks marvelous.

DavidHakobian In reply to Progalive [2013-03-21 21:36:47 +0000 UTC]
Thanks, it's a custom brush that produces random, cloud-like shapes. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I found it, but you can find similar ones in this collection: [link]
