Description A dragon design.

Beautiful but powerful, graceful yet menacing.

Tried to draw that as completely as I could in a character design. I personally think it's okay, but other people have told me they really enjoy my dragons so I decided to post it up.

The older drawings get, the more critical I get of them, but I'm glad you like this one. It's much more popular than expected.

Usually I just smudge the details, I'd hate to give the impression that I actually put a lot of thoughts into my designs

Wow, awesome dragon, I like the detail, especially in the head. I really like the forward sweeping horns. A very cool piece.

Thank you! It was such a boring picture (compositionally) that there has to be something to make up for it, right?

ah, I don't think it's a boring picture, the detail is fantastic.

I believe the head is the most important part XD. A shitty head ruins the whole freaking picture. Now watch me fail to explain my laziness on everything else.

Lol yea. For me, eyes are the most important thing- I'll draw them over and over again untill I can see something possibly forming around it.

Serain In reply to justanothercuteazn [2006-11-09 08:08:52 +0000 UTC]

I've seen that in action XD. Now I'm beginning to draw the eyes last; usually I just have two lines crossed on the head to detirmine which direction the person's facing.

Oh my god, the memories ;_;! That was a long long time ago. I really sucked back then. Maybe I'll dig out some old pictures and post em for all to see.

Humph. You haven't done one since the beginning of time, and the one you did you posted on DA for everyone to see. I feel not so special now. You didn't show me first. GAWD. What's your problem?!...jkjkjk. Love it.

I'm doing monster designs in ROP for some special project with the business class. Would you care to contribute your wonderful works? I'm sure you can help Sophia with the "evil" side. I get the "nature" side. Hardeharhar. Evil is not my middle name.

I've done a whole crapload of them, and you've seen em all! Except this one. And shaddup ;_;.

Sure! A dragon would be a really boring monster design, though...

Do they care? All they want is cool. Or cute in a toned down sense. Not like ADORABLY FLUFFY AND FAT AND SQUISHY MAKES YOU WANT TO BARF cute.

yeah....true....im trying to work in a style similar to yours...i draw things to big and spacy tho,,for instance my dragon in my gallery....ca u give tips on that as well?

Exart [2006-10-25 20:47:46 +0000 UTC]

The detail is amazing.

Apart from that I have a few anatomical suggestions.
You could maybe make the lower torso slimmer, and the wings could be larger.
Also a bit more muscle where the wing meets the torso wouldn't be a bad idea, since dragons need huge muscles to fly.
The hind leg looks a bit too round.

But it's so awesome. Oh how I wish I could draw like that.

That head is just too good, how do you come up with all that cool detail?

Serain In reply to Exart [2006-10-26 00:38:30 +0000 UTC]

Mmm, I was going with the torso of a horse when I drew it, but I see what you mean. I probably should have added it in my notes, but he is a muscley, flight-incapable dragon. Hence the thick shoulder/quad muslces and round wings. Like a chicken, the ones barely able to fly 15 times their height.

I'll keep what you said in mind, though. Thanks for the feedback.

Thank you! Notice how it is significantly darker than the rest of it; I gave up relining about half-way.
