Description Commission for ~SasukeHikari of his dragonsona with ~Vestaki 's. This is definitely one of my favorite pictures I've ever done ... I think it looks better in person, but either way, I adore how it turned out! ^^ He asked for an aerial dance of sorts, with added symbolism of his and ~Vestaki 's elements (light and water). The water part you can see easily, but the light part was plenty of fun to think up. Darkness is the absence of light, so it's almost like two in one ... therefore, the sunset provides an abundance of light, then sweeps across the spectrum into darkness. :3 I hope it's everything you wanted, Andy! ^^

Done in Prismacolor pencils. Time taken: About 9 hours (which is significantly less than things like this usually take me ... I'm impressed XD)

And yet again you make my day with a critique. ^^ Honestly, most of the things you mentioned are things I thought of (his mouth is kind of hard to see, that leg is a little oddly placed, etc), so it's actually good to know I'm not just being overly critical. :3 I can see how the mountains more toward the front look flatter, even though I was trying a bit of a silhouette thing, I think I should have still given them more depth. ^^ Thank you so much for your input! I adore every bit of it~

*falls over at such an epic comment* WOMAN you spoil me far too much! *is not complaining* Unfair you say? XDDDD Heh, I tend to compare myself to really REALLY good artists (like if you see Goldenwolf's pencil skills it's like and then I think her skills are unfair), so I think we're just going in a constant circle of unfairness! Haha, the blue dragon is my favorite because of her cuteness, too. But wow, I'm really happy you like this that much! It's definitely one of my favorite things I've done, and I'll be sad to give it away. :< GAH YOU'RE AWESOME!!

Tsuki! I love this! The colors are wonderful and so is the pose!! Beautiful work!! ^_____^ I don't see anything worth noting wrong with it. I find the simplistic background and the complex foreground go wonderfully together! ^___^ I especially like the work you did with their faces. They are so expressive!

OH.MAH.STARS!!! Where do I start??? D8 The scenery came out basically flawlessly, and I am sooo happy you were able to incorporate Melly's *huggles her to death* and my elements into the background. I love your mastery with prisma blending, and it shows through in this piece very well. Two things I noticed right away: I am one DAYUM SEXY DRAGON >8D, and my Melly's dragon is UUUUUWWWAAAAAAHHHHH-CUUUUUUTEE >w< *grabsquishnoletsgo* But seriously we both look fantastical to the 10,000,000,000,000th power. And I'm sorry that I'm a pain in the ass to do, trust me I'm fully aware of it XD I hope you really enoyed drawing me anyways. THAAAAAAANK YOU! Expect more commishes' from me once I get home 8D

*slams head on keyboard* I suppose you are a sexy dragon ... at least if you think so, then it is so. XD You actually weren't too pain-in-the-assy to draw, just moreso than Bluescales (but I can't complain based on how hard it takes to draw my rainbow barf characters!). EEP! Thank you for this infinite praise ... it was your beautiful idea, I just supplied the Prismacolors! Heehee, but if you like it, then my mission in life for the moment is complete! *bows* You are an amazing commissioner (but you probably already know that based on the ego Melissa teases you for having~ )

And the people in my Spanish class really liked this picture! OwO I showed it off on my Powerpoint about art. YOU ARE NOW FAMOUS. 8D

DAMN RIGHT I'M FAMOUS! XD AND INFAMOUS!! Gwahahahahahahahahahahahaha *eh, just picture a neverending maniacal cackle* Ya see that's my EXACT problem; I can picture these flawlessly rendered and amazingly posed pictures in my head, but I never get enough time to practice to be able to draw THAT well. So for now until whenever, you're going to be the Left Hand of the Almighty Lord of Dragons(this is the part wherein you jump about in ecstatic euphoria at this great honor betowed upon you)!! *holds my Melly squished in my arms* OwO

XD I love the gradient in the sky and the water too--it's so lovely I keep panning up to stare at it. ^^ You are so wonderful. And so very talented. *squishes happily and squeals* ^o^ And ooh! I just found the sun! Preettaaay~this is too perfect; I'm on the side that's more bluish and night related, and he's got the glowy goodness XD I frikkin love the trickley waterfallings!
