Description The Gold is real . . . .

But only a fool would steal it from a dragon

Who is this fool?

Why it's Bill ofcause.

Still working on another animation of him, but in the mean time I thought I would do this picture.

Bill is copyright to

Bill didn't turn out the way I wanted. He looks more like an elf then a drow.

Cheers Kiddies

Firstly, the title is so completely awesome! I could make a whole poem out of that, lovely already! And the meaning you put behind the title is great as well, for only a fool wouldn't realize what the real price of the gold is ^^
As always, you did a great job on the details with him, great shading and designs! I just ADORE his nose! He does look a bit more elfish then drow, you got that right, but there are still drowish features on him.
The gold is my biggest complaint I thought they were stones, my apologies, but I really did >.< I understand you would get lazy with them, that's exactly the reason why I never wanted to color gold (I evaded it succesfully so far ^^ ) But it does teach you more, so it's worth doing it. I really think that it would look better if you put a little more time into it ^^ The background and the dragon are awesome! Very creepy and dangerous atmosphere, I can *feel* that dragon creeping up behind him, oh so slowly... XD Fantastic work again hun!

Man the faces you do always look so life like. Dunno how you do it but it looks kick ass. Even if you didn't nail what you were going for I'm still a big fan! The clothes look so natural and detailed. You might have done the gold and background in different styles compared to Bill but I still think it works with the nature of both the picture and what is Bill. He's the kind of guy to stand out in any situation after all

But yep, looks like Bill's boned O_O

thanx buddy. yeah there are alot of things that didn't turn out the way I wanted but I thought since the pic sort of told a story it might pass. Oh and he will escape the dragon because this is Bill we are talking about here. cheers buddy and thank you for the fav

Comethius [2007-09-14 01:28:39 +0000 UTC]

Very creative!
Now I know why you called it fools gold...ha ha. I really like what you did with this one, especially the character, his outfit really is painted well. I got spooked when I seen the dragon,the poor soul will have to find out the hardway about stealing from dragons.

Is the coins some kind of template? I coudn't imagine drawing all those coins...

littlegoblet In reply to Comethius [2007-09-14 10:45:57 +0000 UTC]

thanx buddy, Bill will somehow escape the dragons wrath. He is very good at getting out of tricky situations. But very good at getting into them aswell lol.
As for the coins. I used the circle tool to do a few and then I kept copying and pasting. I had alot of people tell me how crap they look. Bla I was hoping I would get away with it. Well that teaches me for being lazy when drawing coins lol

Comethius In reply to littlegoblet [2007-09-15 05:36:09 +0000 UTC]

Your coins don't look like crap.
That's actually not a bad idea, especially when you really don't want to go into a tireless effort in making a zillion circles. It is much less stressful I could imagine- and if you pull it off right no one will notice.

Awesome picture, the guy looks good, and I love the background! Wonderful light effects.
Hope that the fool will survive this time


But only a fool would steal it from a dragon
Well, either a fool, or a very skillful and very, very insolent thief... also a drow... do you know, whom I am talking about?

littlegoblet In reply to broom-rider [2007-09-14 09:59:21 +0000 UTC]

lol oh yes I certainly do. That is where I got the holding amulet idea from. I stole it from the other picture lol, and them modified abit. I also stole some weapons from my other pictures too. (Some swords) And if you look carefuly, you can see Dzzirtnafein's little dagger. It would seem that he will have to come here and steal it back. And unlike Bill he won't get caught. Because he is cunning and clever, unlike Bill. However, Bill will somehow escape what ever the dragon has instore for him. He always seems to escape these situations. He is unusualy lucky like that lol.

XullraeZauviir [2007-09-13 17:56:57 +0000 UTC]

He looks drow in the face, I love his expression. But the clothes are elvish looking but that's okay, maybe he took up the surface fashion while he was up there.

Great pic all the same!

yup he could have done that too. Knowing Bill lol. cheers buddy and thanx for the comment

I don't think the dragon is going to be too happy with all that... well, from the looks of things. The background is absolutely stunning. Like really wow 0.0

I think the only thing off with the picture are the coins but even they aren't so bad. ^_^

littlegoblet In reply to Artheeria [2007-09-14 10:35:43 +0000 UTC]

the coins are cheap toy coins. . . . . Naaa just kidding. but they look like cheap toy coins. I got lazy with the treasure. I thought to myself, how am I gonna draw heaps of coins. . . . . the lazy way ofcause. Cut copy and past the circle tool
