Description
I did this some time ago but had it just on my message forum.So I thought I would upload it here.
It's not the best tutorial in the world but it was also the first attempt at one ^_^
Please remember that this is a tutorial of my "style" dragon and not a "traditional" tutorial
Oh on a side note: If you use this tutorial & upload the finished dragon to DA please send me a link. I would love to see it!!!!!

Wow, thanks. Mine really turned out.
I'd like to show you, however mine was on paper due to a lack of tablet and good computer drawing system.

Do you have a flat bed scanner?

JokerrLaughs In reply to NinaBolenArt [2012-05-26 23:44:59 +0000 UTC]
... I have no idea.
All I know, is that when I slip a paper into the scanner section, the little screen says 'USB Not Connected' or something.

sounds like you might want to have someone look at your scanner. I can't help more than that, without being there LOL

By the way, where can I get those colours you mentioned? Like the colorless blender and the markers?

You should be able to find Copic brand markers at most craft/art stores. I get mine at Hobby Lobby. Or e-bay is always a good place to look ^_^

Thanks! ^^ I used your tutorial to draw my dragon, and I love the way it turned out!! I'm going to upload it once I've coloured. Do coloured pencils work good too?

NinaBolenArt In reply to rkk414 [2011-11-20 18:40:47 +0000 UTC]
Cool Yes colored pencils work great too (I did the highlight work on this one with colored pencils) I would recommend Prismacolor brand colored pencils, they are so nice & blend great!

Thanks for sharing. I don't have a lot of time to look, but I am adding it to my favorites to keep it where I can take a look and maybe use it.

^_^ yeah I have some typos in step 7 now that I look again. Basically on step 7 just add lots & lots of lines for detail LOL but you can also skip that step & start adding color to your work if you don't want to do too much with ink.

NinaBolenArt In reply to FresiaX [2011-11-15 21:10:28 +0000 UTC]
Thanks Oh no ink on a keyboard is no fun
I once spilled a whole bottle of red ink on a piece of art that I had spent hours on /cry I was sooooo upset lol
