Description Yay, movie-thing again. I felt these black lines suited the mood of the picture. Since July is rather rainy here the weather caused this impression in me.

This is a very good piece. I like the wet sparkles on the dragon's skin. *applauds*

I love his pose. He's just perfectly hunched, glaring up at the storm so determined to soak him through.

Így, majdhogynem szeptember elejéről nézve, a feltöltéskor a próféta szólt belőled, mert ez a nyár tényleg nem kényeztetett el minket...
Úgyhogy szegény sárkánynak is szűkös nyara lehetett...

(Piros pont a változatos villámokért!)

Huhh, ne is mondd, én azt reméltem, hogy legalább egy hónapig hőségriadó lesz megint... ehhez kéest jó, hogy kabátot nem kellett vennem.

This picture looks like a scene right out of the movies! You should be a movie writer and make the art! Nice dragon and scenery. I love the rain too.

Thanks Unfortunately I suck in writing... The visual part, it's fine. But writing is just extremely hard for me

I wrote a story once and my teacher LOVED it. but I hate the grammer. XD

I HATE grammer. commas, explimation points, its all hard to remember where to put them sometimes.

matena In reply to Nela-G [2008-09-05 05:29:44 +0000 UTC]

English is easy from this point of view since it rarely uses commas and other marks. At least if you compare it with Hungarian

Nela-G In reply to matena [2008-09-05 14:20:21 +0000 UTC]

Hungarian? I don't know that language, but English is easy for me except the grammer part.

I think you would find it _really_ difficult! It's quite different.

The weather reminds me of Iowa State, with all of the rain and lightning. Poor little dragon, he looks so upset to have to hunt in that weather.

matena In reply to IvoryDraco [2008-08-06 06:10:35 +0000 UTC]

Well, it's still better for him than for the prey... And with wings without feathers it is much easier to fly in heavy rain, I think.

IvoryDraco In reply to matena [2008-08-06 09:31:16 +0000 UTC]

That is true. My poor feathery dragons would be out of luck in that weather.

Amazing! The 'movie bars' do add to it.
Wonderful rain! How did you manage that?!

matena In reply to diredragon [2008-07-30 05:14:46 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, it's really simple Just add some randomly placed dots to a new layer and apply a motion blur on them
