Description Well, Mom wanted me to draw a dragon, so here it is! He's trying to protect the stuff he's collected from getting washed away (especially his very favorite thing, the gigantic pearl.)

I really really really like how this finally turned out. What makes me especially happy is that I achieved exactly the effect I wanted with his horns X3 There are a few tiny things that bug me, mostly the water, but eh.

Wow, that looks fantastic! I love the wings, and the semi-transparent effect. Great work with all the colouring and shading. And I don't know how the water could bug you - it looks really good to me, especially the splashes. Nice work!

Thank you! I do like the water right around the rock, but I don't like how it looks farther out =\

Wow, that's amazing. Gotta love those wings and transparency on them. I think the only thing that needs more to it is the horizon, looks a little too bold. I guess it's because the waves don't really get smaller as they go out to sea. Minor issue though, this is superb.

RacieB In reply to Kritter5x [2005-10-04 14:59:46 +0000 UTC]

Thank you ^^ I agree about the horizon, I'm still working on figuring backgrounds out and I sort of tried practicing on here, but those waves killed my mouse hand to draw and I didn't want to mess with them anymore after a while XP

Woah, that's gorgeous. I really love the colours, and the sea dragon is so pretty. ^^ The concept is so cute too, I could just picture him sitting there forever protecting his treasure.
