LOLIt's been a long while since I've drawn something like this, and for it to be traditional to boot! O_o; Dragon commission for a coworker for their sister's birthday. I rather like how it came out
Prisma color pencils and india ink on 9x12 Bristol

^_^ Wow, Shanella, this picture is absolutely amazing! Your traditional drawings are always so awesome, and seeing this nearly took my breath away. ;o; I am truly amazed by the amount of effort and skill you have put into this, the inking is clean and smooth, and the way you drew the dragon, the flowers and the vines in such fine detail is absolutely lovely. The dragon's head, mane, and braids and the plants are my favorite parts! ;o; The way you colored this picture with the Prismacolors is absolutely gorgeous - the colors are just right; very rich and eye-popping and the blending is just superb! You really do have an amazing talent with using Prismacolors, hon. Hehehe, what can I say, this has to be one of my favorite traditional drawings from you in a while. You've done such a fabulous job, keep it up!
^^

It looks just wonderful. ^^ The dragon has a real "artsy" style to it, and the look of a graphic novel! Great job!

I can usually tell what a person used in a picture but this piece tripped me up. I thought it was markers because its just soooo smooth. The red is gorgeous on the dragon, such a lovely picture.
