Description
Part of my continuing quest to create an original-looking dragon. I'm not sure how original these designs are, but I'm happy with the diversity of the designs I created, and I feel confident enough about them that I'd like to do a more detailed, color version of each at some point.Drawn in pencil, shading added in Photoshop 7

I'd love to, and I appreciate your interest in my art, but I simply don't have the time right now. I'm working on a freelance project already, and just started a full schedule at art school. Sorry, and good luck with the game.

LOL, awright, in order from top to bottom they're Peter, Simon, James, John, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, Thaddeus, Judas, and Paul.

You might benefit from thumbing through the pages of the Nuremberg Chronicles [link] - hope you can find some more useful links on the subject. It might inspire you by getting away from the 'sword and sorcery' kind of dragon image that has become a all too common staple. There are truly wondrous creatures to be found in the recesses of the collective consciousness.......

The sheer diversity is what makes this whole collection of dragon head sketches so much fun. I love all of the different horn and spikey bit arrangements you've worked out. Such a lovely theme...

Thanks so much! Glad you like em. Horns and spikes are my favorite things to stick on creatures at random places.

Thanks! I guess that's what comes from drawing dinos throughout your childhood.
