Great tutorial! I'm working on a dragon pic myself right now. Keep an eye out for it if you're interested. I haven't done a dragon in years, mostly because they scare me. Not dragons literally, but drawing them can be intimidating. You certainly do an excellent job!

Amazing tutorial! And i'm glad to know that i'm not the only one who uses cats for dragon anatomy

Giddygecko In reply to JemLeigh [2010-12-08 00:49:13 +0000 UTC]

THANKYOU! Cats are very good because if you own a cat you can derive ideas from it, as in: how it sits, stands, shifts its weight as it walks, etc

JemLeigh In reply to Giddygecko [2010-12-08 01:10:24 +0000 UTC]

yeah... I must try using my gecko as a reference sometime. never thought of it before

biologicalMenace [2010-11-30 15:16:54 +0000 UTC]

Wow !This gotta be one of the best dragon tutorials! No, really.What I like in this, that you use dinosaurs and reptiles as references, as other people use mammals.Seriously, lolwut?High five for that, mate!
And everything else...I have nothing to say, it just rocks-ass! The anatomy, the how you explained everything...WIN

Yay! Someone else who uses dinosaurs as reference for their dragon anatomy! I get tired of people who only look at mammal anatomy as a basis for their dragons when dragons are certainly not mammals! Nice work on this tutorial~ ^^
