So many people are paying attention to the "awesome" face, but I really like the face above that, although all the faces are very expressive. I also like the padding on the "palm" of the wing. And of course, your dragons never fail to amaze.

Tell me that face in the lower left-hand corner doesn't totally look like the Awesome face.

Hee hee. I was asked to do an "awesome" face. It's not QUITE right, (Mouth needs to be a lot rounder) as I'd have to make him so cartoony he wouldn't match the reference to the right, but I'm glad it's still recognizable!

It's all very clear to me now why I'm not getting commissions. I feel bad that he paid me for doing something that doesn't even come close to this. :<

Your reference sheet was quite nice! It was actually one of the references I was provided with to work from for this one.
I wouldn't be down about your art: It's lovely in its own right, and you're only going to continue to improve as time goes on!

That's true. I guess it's just frustrating to be struggling to offer a service while standing next to a handful of people who outclass you and are offering the same thing. I've decided to go a different route though, until I level up some more. I can at least see improvement each time I draw, so I'm not totally stagnating :3

Aww! I was a little worried I'd make you feel bad for requesting this. Your art is terrific, Kina! (I'd been evangelizing with the locals over this, actually)
My main rationale for the request, instead of an illustration, was to have some additional details clarified. I only realized this after the fact -- long after you did my original sheet.
Don't feel bad. After all, it's not an accident that I use your drawing as my avatar, and as my Twitter background. Seriously!

Great work from a great artist. Your drawings have always inspired me to do better.
Shame I didn't have the money to commission you at the time you were getting people for this.

Amazing.
I love the expressions, the shading and details are superb, and the anatomy is just about perfect. The only thing that seems off to me is in the, um... crotch area. It seems like his pelvic bone is protruding a bit too much. It kinda disrupts the flow of his body for me.
Beautiful effects on the breath weapon. Is it a specific element?

Ice, but not like chunks of ice or frost-fire. It sorta looks like wind, but it's supposed to be depicting the water in the air freezing and thus the effect.
