Description
Nothing much to say about this image.It's a bronze colored dragon, stalkin' through the woods, climbing on rocks and so forth.
Started on it five months ago after coming back from a trip to Killbear Provincial Park, in Northern Ontario. I love how the rocks of the Canadian Shield pop out from amongst the trees and such out there, and how the cedar trees cling to 'em at almost impossible angles and stuff.
-> Acrylic paint, on a piece of 11" x 14" illustration board. <-

Interesting...I've never thought of dragons on the Canadian Shield, but it's a good idea! You should do more Canadian dragons.

Awesome, very awesome. I love the design of the dragon. Wicked pose, nice scales, great job on the wings! I like the metallic sheen of the dragon's skin. The scenery is also spot-on - love the intricacey and detail. Another brilliant piece of art.

Very nice image. I like the way the light filters through the wings, and the rocks are really good. One thing I notice, though, is that the dragon and scenery are rendered in rather different styles, which makes the piece a bit confusing. Still, great job!

ShikaTheFox [2006-08-25 02:28:27 +0000 UTC]
Wow, this is pretty! The only thing I could sudgest is to connect the skin of the wings near the back legs rather than the elbows. That way it would look more realistic.

I can't even decide which part is the best, first I thought wings, then tail, then I noticed the details in the background..the whole thing is just...flawless.I adore it.

I would say that the scales are a little too outlined 'stead of shaded. Other than that, booooodifuuuulll. How much did it go for?

Ow! I missed this one! You're too productive I can't keep up.
I lub dragons XD It doesn't look as much as hunting, as it looks like it's playing, just waiting to pinch the unsuspecting squirrel! (haha.. eh).
Very nice And I like how the branch is visible through the wing
And the light in the back of the forrest, where the happy bunnies live.

Well, if it were a self-sustaining job...I'd just as well consider it an internship of some manner And housework doesn't bother me, I've got an eye (i.e. complex) when it comes to organization and efficiency...

Wow, I love this. SHINAY.
Only thing, ehr, critical I can say is that the eyes look a bit awkward. Maybe it's because they appear a bit too.. un-repitlian? I donno.
I'm not too keen with dragon anatomy, but everything looks well proportioned and positioned. <3
