Description
Just wanted to let you all know I haven't died or anything. I'm not uploading a lot, because I need to prepare for the final tests that I have to write in three weeks time. Sorry guys, I'm stress-packed T-TI did, however, promise myself to draw something every day, even if it's very small. So I traced an ACEO-card a few times in an old sketchbook so I can draw tiny dragons in the boxes every time I'm stressed or feel like it. I thought I'd show you guys a few. Maybe, if the sketchbook is completely full, I'll cut them all out and trade them all with people here ^^ But I won't promise that, I might keep them myself if a few really interesting designs pop up that I want to use for future projects.

Nice collection of beasties that you have here

Thanks ^^ They're quick and funny little things to draw. A good way to get my mind off other things.
When I drew the last one, my mind thought it'd be cool if there was a part of his dinner hanging from his teeth, like seaweed or shreds of skin. But he could easily be drooling too X) Glad you like them all.

Sure thing! I imagine that all these beasties must be quite fun to draw
Heheh. He kind of reminded me of a komodo dragon with all of his leftover food/slobber

they look great!
I love monochrome sketches and rough shading 
I actually had a critique point but when i looked at it again i saw that it was different than i thought xD so, nothing to mention here x3
(also, i wondered why this picture and my request weren't in my message box ._. i just saw them as i visited your page..i checked, i am still watching you, just as i thought..hm..well some dA sever problems i guess

The second one is my favorite too! ^^ That's the one that fills its box the most.
I think I like working in rough shades better than defined shades. I certainly do it a lot more, even though I don't always upload the results to deviantart. I don't know why, though. Maybe because it's so fast. Or maybe because when working rough, the process of your work is still visible in the result.
And when you have to fill as many boxes as I try to do in this sketchbook, it'd be boring to always do the same angle. It's actually very good practice! You have to force yourself to draw something differently than you'd usually do, firstly because the space to draw in is so small, secondly because a page full of the same poses would be dull. You should try it sometime! It's actually very fun to do.
Hmm, that is weird :/ They should have showed up in your inbox. It would be a bit bothersome if none of my deviations ended up in anyone's inbox. But I guess it's some kind of temporary dA thing.

I actually draw alot more than i upload to deviantart, too. but mostly because my scanner is really really bad :/
Yeah you're right

Thank you ^^ These are quick little things, so the shading is very rough and fast, but very fun to do.
A lot of people who saw me working on this thought the fourth one was the best. I like it too, maybe it's because of the unusual angle ^^
Thanks for stopping by!
