Description
aka currant dragon..ΒPersonal work that was supposed to be "relaxing" but every stroke I made I had to think though carefully >.> In the end it came out quite decent so 8+ hours well spent!
Thank you for SlowNStupid for keeping me company and giving some helpful critique!
I should hold my horses with the blur though

Only critique I can give is watch for line tangents. I don't see any real problems, but there are some places where the shapes get kinda close together (like the foreground leaf and one of the stems). Just keep an eye out for possible problem lines/shapes. Step back and look at it from a distance. Another thing I've found helpful is turning the image upside down, or mirroring it. Doing so will give you a new perspective and you'll see things that might need adjustments.
Otherwise I absolutely love the colors and the whole idea. I really like how the light shines through the dragon a little bit; gives the image a nice taste of realism since a creature that small would have some of that glow.
Beautiful piece overall. 8 hours well spent.

I think that's a really good use of blur!
And I like how the leaves that are a little closer are less blured than the background
but the drawing has some kind of, paper.like texure? That's how it seems to me

Aww thank you!!Β
And indeed! The brushes I used had some sort of paper like texture to them ^^ Might be a problem if I tried to be super realistic, but I think it's fine with this :3

yep I think that's the only thing that stops this from looking real
but it's really an amaizing drawing! I love the choise of color and the transparency of the dragon's skin (if I expressed myself right)
