Description This pic was made on fall 2002. I realy like Nagas, always did! But since i didnt knew anything about drawings and art in internet in that time,
i made my own pic, to see how it was for me to draw one, and its little tricky in the start making the body look rite.
Please, if u can, give me suggestions on how to make nagas look better, since its sumthing i want to draw WAY better than this!

Made by cheap pencil

It's excellent though!

The only critical thing I could say is, watch the tapering of the body. Remember that if it's like 15 feet long, it will get narrower as it goes. I don't know if you own a snake like a boa or such, but if you watch snakes bodies, too, they're just *all* muscle when they move. Very powerful. Their bellies are wide, with horizontal scales (at least on my boa) and have smaller scales on their backs - their back is kind of like a 'dome' shape - like an onion-dome shape, you can see where the spine is only faintly (that'd be the top of the dome) and the sides kind of bloat out, and then the belly is more flat. Entirely flexible, so they can drape over everything in their path.

The arm is a little weak, so you might want to work a bit on drawing yourself from a mirror - to get where bone and muscle move around. Otherwise, interesting choice to make it a lizard headed naga, as most artists I've seen make them human-headed. Pretty cool. Try doing this in color, or with shading of some kind, and I bet you'd be able to flesh it out a little more easily than with just an outline.

Good work in all!

Wow, big thx for the advice!
I did had a snake, a CliffPython, (Python sebae) (she was strong indeed) But she was THE most cute creature on earth
and was my own, until my mom said she begins to be too big Had a very hard time giving her away.
But i didnt notice the things u said, im very happy for your description on the snakes, (ill soon upload my charecter, who
is Sharky Juniors friend )
