This is an image from my Dragon Adventure 2 coloring book. This is a hand-colored print, as the "original" lineart is digital-only: I reworked the dragon by hand from an older sketchbook image, and I drew the abstract background as a separate image, then merged them in Photoshop. The merged version is what is in the coloring book, and is what you see here. I like to "test drive" images like this to see how well they'll work, though in this case it's yeeeeears after publication... So let's just say I colored this guy for the fun of it.

I used Prismacolor Scholar pencils for most of it, with some Prisma Premiers for a couple of colors that aren't present in the Scholar set.

I finished this in 2020, but it is officially my first post of 2021!

For the curious, here's the original sketch of the dragon:
