Description
'Nother large one. Hit the download button for a crisp/clear image if you need to!Christmas gift for ~dragontrap of her Amuse! I picked the dragon version, since obviously she has scales. And I like scales.
You've had so many hardships fall into your lap this year and previous, I sincerely hope things start to look up for you in the next year. You keep on truckin' though, and you have friends who are rootin' for the best. Hope all is well, and hope you have a happy holiday.
----------
I'll be posting one piece of gift art each day for the next few days up to the 1st of January, aka NEW YEAR (Or at least try to)! I still have a few to finish up, so posting times may be irregular. It feels good to properly ink again!
Thanks to all of my lovelies who hung out with me in my stream for couple nights while I slaved away on this. For some reason this was the LONGEST one out of the batch. I have no idea why. It was fun, guys. <3
Tools Used (from start to finish):
Photoshop CS, Wacom Intuos 3

My GOD. Those scales omfg. Everywhere is just so detailed and awesome and amazing and WOW ;___;
I love the chest/belly scales...like how they have a gap down the centre. <3 (It probably has a proper name but I don't know it lolz |D) I don't know why, but I think it looks really great. Makes me think of tough, armour plating.
Nice colour choice for the BG, too. Complements the character beautifully! 8D

I had no idea there was a band called Muse. XD Muse is just what this character is usually called, from what I recall.
And thanks!

It was fun, I'm glad you were streaming. :'D I think my favorite part is how the wing membrane attaches to the scales along the belly. Now THAT'S dedication. |D (Oh yes, and scales are dedication too. )
Have a happy new year bb! :3

You're so good at scales and dragon-creatures that it's just... freaking ridiculous, you know that? >.<
I hope you either have or are getting some job as an artist. D: I'm positive you could make it big; no joke. Your art is an inspiration.
