Description I (and apparently lots of other people too!) enjoyed my dragon so much that I decided to do a series of them. Whichever magical creature strikes my fancy, or yours, if someone has a request. This one's actually on... an explanation of how to draw a 15 degree angle with only a compass... Yeah. You can see why I started doodling...

Well, thank you. I considered this one as a tattoo, but not for me... someone else maybe!

This completely aweasome. I will go check out your dragon.
The only request I would have is a unicorn or a pegasus.

Ryua In reply to DavisJes [2007-01-02 20:59:17 +0000 UTC]

Well, I'll put a pegasus in the back of my brain for thinking on then, since I already did the unicorn and you like it. And thanks for all your other comments, by the way!

I'm trying to get ambitious enough to draw an acutal Moltres, but I don't like drawing fire...

Wow...... .....I don' t know what to say........ it's so..... light and beatiful...Can I ask you why do you like dragons so much?...Maybe it's an entirely coincidental occurence but yesterday a friend of mine asked me to draw a dragon for a tattoo...today I sketched something but my dragons are more common than yours!
I like it very much

Ryua In reply to sarazip [2006-08-13 23:01:32 +0000 UTC]

I've just always liked them, I'm not sure why. They can be so individual, whatever you want them to be. Glad you like it!

Wow, that is also beautiful!
I remember the days of doodling on the back of tests and worksheets and general any blank looseleaf i had in front of me while bored, hehe. But i never did anything this magnificent!

Ryua In reply to LimeGreenSquid [2006-03-25 05:57:41 +0000 UTC]

Aww! Thanks! I'm so, so glad you like it... I was exceedingly surprised how it turned out myself, to tell you the truth.

kiralachan [2006-03-24 03:45:35 +0000 UTC]

Again- beautiful line work!
This vaguely reminds me of the Final Fantasy X fayth designs (I've had FFX on the brain lately ) except much more simplified - but still awesome nonetheless .

Ryua In reply to kiralachan [2006-03-24 13:25:46 +0000 UTC]

Huh. You know, it kinda does, now that I think about it... Ifrit's especially. I've actually meant to do a fayth design for a while now, but I just haven't picked one to make!

Silvertje [2006-03-23 13:02:49 +0000 UTC]

hey this is cute, reminds me of my windows media player: moving colors or something, I tried to redraw it as a bird which would be like this one you made but then with rainbowcolors.

Fathoms-of-flow [2006-03-22 02:51:23 +0000 UTC]

Very elegant! the shading is more apparent, i can see you had better luck with scanning. again this has some great curves and movement. i like the direction, seems like she's at the apex of her flight and is momentarily pausing before she dives down through the sky. you should try expanding the movement beyond the boundaries of the surface, as if there is so much going on that it cant be captured on mere paper. nice work.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Ryua In reply to Fathoms-of-flow [2006-03-22 13:19:50 +0000 UTC]

Wow. You actually leave me suggestions in your responses? You rock! Although I'm not entirely sure what you mean about expanding it, it sounds like something I should do...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Fathoms-of-flow In reply to Ryua [2006-03-22 20:19:37 +0000 UTC]

haha yeah, it seems like most people have a two-word response and thats boring. And about the whole expanding thing, take a dragon wing for example, you could start drawing it somwhere visible and then extend it out beyond the edge of the paper itself. Then choose a spot farther on down the same edge or even a different edge and bring the wing back in. To me, this would make the drawing seem bigger and more important than the page its being drawn on. Regardless, you have some great dragon drawings and you should keep it up!

Ryua In reply to Fathoms-of-flow [2006-03-22 23:30:24 +0000 UTC]

Ah. That makes sense now... On a piece of artwork, that I had in front of me, I'd know how to extend it onto the frame or something, I've done it before. Now I get how it could be done in this format... I'll keep it in mind!

DazeWolf [2006-03-21 02:24:33 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I see! Super pretty! It looks very wispy and watery, which looks really neat and confusing and awesome considering the phoenix is a fire bird and all. It makes my mind all twittery and happy. x3
