Description You asked for it, here it is! it's my first tutorial so I hope it will help! I tried to make one a bit different from the usual anatomy ones you can find on deviantart.

I focused more on the details, shapes, types of dragons, so you can diversify the types of dragons you're drawing! I hope it will help!

EDIT: About the WINGS attached to the top of the shoulder: some people said it's impossible for a dragon to fly with wings at this place, but I focused on aesthetics more than on anatomy logic (after all if we follow logic, you should have to make your wings with a very precise size, calculate everything according to the weight of your dragon, etc, etc) Dragons don't exist and that's why it is fun to draw them. I chose the example of the wing attached to the shoulder because it's for me the most beautiful one and the one we see the most even in professional artworks, because it looks more "badass" and elegant. But of course you can put the wings lower on the back, or attach them differently to the body. I just won't guarantee it will look good. There are so many different ways to draw a dragon ^^

I love this, been trying to sketch dragons for a month and a half now, and have had little success when I try to make them look original, this will probably give me something to base them off so they don't look like some 5-year old scribble.

I love dragons because we can almost create and imagine everything about their design

This is a very lovely tutorial. I haven't drawn dragons for a long time, so if I start up again I can look at this and hopefully get my dragon groove back on. ^_^

They could have no legs after all (but I'm not sure if wyrms are still the real dragons). Still, I stick all the time toward six-limbed (wings and four legs) dragons, because they are all cool.

There are some exceptions, like dragons from Drakengard duology (Angelus (she is FEMALE) and Legna).

I like strange dragons too, I don't know if wyrms are still dragons but I do like them ^^

je galère tellement à dessiner les dragons, et sachant qu'un dragon est quand même un élément majeur de mon projet, c'est problématique, haha.
quoi qu'il en soit, c'est un vrai de vrai super tuto *-* bien détaillé et tout, je sens qu'il va me servir !

Evolvana In reply to Lawalenn [2013-02-17 22:47:03 +0000 UTC]

Je suis contente qu'il puisse servir, c'est là pour ça! c'est mon premier tuto donc j'espère que j'ai fait ce qu'il fallait, y'a déjà beaucoup de tuto d'anatomie de dragons sur deviantart, donc le mien c'est surtout pour "personnaliser" les dragons, varier les styles
