Description
So I really didn't like the old Reference for Shalou. It was messy, and too yellow. So I made this one! Awah. Blue! And I don't have a cold this timeI'm really beginning to warm to Shalou. He's getting a bit more personality now. I still reckon he's a bad boy underneath all that shyness (Mating with AdΓ©na! EAAASY)
Ahem. So yes. A bit neater and more organised on this one I didn't write enough in the full body box either .
And I changed his wings slightly, I didn't like the fact that he lacked a balance membrane, it made it look incomplete. I also re-drew his eye patterns. But apart from that, it's just a Reference update.
Download to read! It should all be readable, but if it isn't, let me know!

I love his eye patterns and his character's cool too, a well balanced and very likable one.
An amazinlgy detailed ref, it must have taken some time.

Thank you so much! ^^ I like doing eye patterns on my characters, it's a very creative thing to get into!
Haha well the original ref mixed with this one did take a while! It's the writing and spell checking that takes the most time XD

Fluffysminion In reply to Wyvernadas [2011-06-20 17:12:26 +0000 UTC]
No problem, I think it's something you're good at.
I can see why, it's certainly text-heavy. A lot better than mine, which normally have only a couple of paragraphs at most.

Well sometimes its good to have it that way. Infact, not even sometimes. All the time. Writing like this drains me. XD I wish I could be content with a few paragraphs but I just can't do it, I have to fill spaces XD

Fluffysminion In reply to Wyvernadas [2011-07-03 13:14:07 +0000 UTC]
Well, my ref sheets are normally smaller so there's less space to fill.

Wyvernadas In reply to Fluffysminion [2011-07-03 13:19:09 +0000 UTC]
Ah that's ok then! The smaller the better - Then no fiddly details and spaces to fill! XD

Yes, but it does mean that people have to guess a lot more, it's not as clear who the chracter is.

Good point. Although sometimes its good to keep em' guessing It keeps them interested

Yes, it's nice if you know some things about your charactrs that no-one else does.

Holy... Wow, I'm amazed Wyv, at your ability at creating such a wonderful (because I can't describe this character with another word) dragon! *-*
You have got something that, always when you draw/create Ocs captivates me.
This ref. is perfectly structurated, and the details are simply awesome. I can see that you've put a lot of effort here (:
And about Shalou... (nice name btw) I specially like the contrast between the lighter colours of his ears/stomach and his dark rest of the body ;> (You're improving so quickly at drawing anatomy!)
The shading it's amazing too, and more and more things that I don't say because this comment is getting too long and I'm turning annoying.. lol
Keep your work this great way! !

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like him :3
It means alot that you think that about my Oc's
Oh, I don't think the comment is annoying at all! I love long comments!

NEW SHADING STYLE ASDFKJDS;FJ KSAJF L;FJDL;JDSFL;KSAD;FLKKDJKLFDJKLASJKLFDSAJKLFLS it looks a m a z i n g. Amazing I tell you!
In all seriousness, the shading on that full body picture really is simply amazing. Really well done there
I really like this new reff too. i think that it looks great
I think that you may have forgotten to draw the tufty bits on the ends of his antennae though in the headshot

Wyvernadas In reply to Amadoodles [2011-02-20 10:58:18 +0000 UTC]
IKNOWRITE? I had the same reaction to it.
Thankies! It is really fun using that shading style!
Oh those tufty bit's aren't meant to be showing I need to do a better job of "Fading out" the antennae next time

Amadoodles In reply to Wyvernadas [2011-02-21 15:39:14 +0000 UTC]
It's really cool!
Hmmm, maybe fade them out sooner?

Yeah, I'm going to edit the Ref now, because I really don't like the colours on the background XD

Hmmm, the yellow is a bit bright. What you going to be changing it to?

Wyvernadas In reply to Amadoodles [2011-02-25 17:30:48 +0000 UTC]
Maybe light blue? I'm a bit worried about it clashing

Amadoodles In reply to Wyvernadas [2011-02-25 18:52:59 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, that should work. Or eve just a less bright, lighter less saturated yellow. maybe just play around with the hue and adjustments on PS.
I know that I think I want to use a paper texture on my reff when I finally make it. maybe that?

Wyvernadas In reply to Amadoodles [2011-02-27 17:41:41 +0000 UTC]
Ok, I'll try it!
Yes I did consider paper I might try it out

I'm loving his new design but I think my favorite thing about the picture itself is the shading
Pen pressure is such a wonderful thing XD
