Dragon

Postby Host » Sun Jul 15, 2012 10:31 am

Finished! :3

Omigod…

It actually kinda looks like a dragon now!!!! (Even though it’s still a WIP)Eeep!

Do you see those scales?
Yeah, those grey ones. See em?
I drew them.
EVERY. LAST. ONE.
It took AN HOUR!
Bleh.

I still have a lot of work to do on it..
Shading, shine, more coloring, eyes..
I’m also going to add some flames shooting from his mouth. :) Hopefully, I can draw some fire!
And I’m still currently pondered on wether or not I should add more scales inbetween the snout and the crown of his head. I really don’t want to do more scales unless I have to.. What do you guys think?


I love it how in your mind, you’re like:
“Omigod this is TOTALLY going to be a feature!”
Then, when you actually get it out on the canvas, it sucks eggs.
Hmph.
I don’t care, though. I’m finishing it, no matter what.
Even if I end up drawing stick people instead of him.

In case you’re wondering.. This is not Thorn from the Inheritance Cycle. I was thinking of making it Thorn, but then I decided that I’d rather make it my own character that I made up a few months ago..
His name is Cology, and his Rider is Derrington. In this picture, Cology {is} going to have his first breath of fire.

I have always been fascinated by Dragons, but everytime I’ve tried to draw one, it ends up looking like an oddly-shaped horse, so I never post them. Lolz.
I finally had a very long talk with myself, and told myself that I needed to finish a dragon, because I want CS to know that I, Dial, like Dragons.
I didn’t agree, so I tricked myself! I posted the sketch, so now I am being forced to finish..
:p

Comments and critique are welcome!
I would really appreciate it if you would also give this a like, so then I know if anybody wants to see more of my art.
Thanks!

Thanks!! ^^

Just threw some color in. I just made a bunch of sketchy lines, then blended it all together. I messed up a little bit on my layers, so I didn’t get far. I had to fix it up.. DX

Tell me what ya’ll think so far!

Finished, for the most part.

Its 11 here, so I'll look at it in the morning.
All I know is that the fire by the mouth is annoying me; a lot.

I'm glad somebody likes the scales! I was tempted to not do them, because I knew it would take a long time.. Thank you! :D
