Artist's Comments

Ugh...this was so HARD and took so LONG!

But I am so proud of it! eeeh....
Okay, internet community, meet Briard. Briard, meet internet community.
This is my first finished peice of artwork with my copic markers! So exciting. That is why it is so sloppy. The scanner slaughtered and cropped and digested it as well so that didn't help...but or well.

Um, I named her/him Briard after drawing him but eh...thats her/his name.

So yes, this took me absolutely ages. I did the sketch then mixed with printing and inking and what not. I eventually traced the lineart on a different peice of paper so I didn't ruin the sketch (the right fore-foot in the sketch is bad anyway, i changed it) then i did heaps of colouring experimenting, i have pages of it. Then I scanned it and printed out some other linearts which was fun of course. Then I coloured the dragon. That was hard...that was sooo hard...I stuffed up the wing membranes terribly and savoured them only with the help of a very watery blue...still looks...interesting
then i did the background which sucks...and is still blue.
Sorry if this kills your colour perception people!
Yeah, if i think of anything else I will edit this post but for now that is it.
Please critique people, I want to get better at using these markers!
Other then that, enjoy!
(p.s i now hate the colour blue)
(p.p.s I used about 4-5 different blue pens on ALL of this, bout 7 different pens all up)

awesome work, this looks amazing! the pose is really cool, and the color is very good. the wings look fine. Great work on the scales too.

Thank you =D
I just sent a note asking if you meant to click print ^^; apparently so (note to self: check all resources before making idiot of self)
My mum has just opened a paypal account (she is starting to do lots of ebay selling) so I probably could make prints, would you actually buy one?
(It is buy right, I don't really know how it works)

Depend on the rabbits foot if you will, but remember, it didn't work for the rabbit.

yeah scales usually do.. ugh
:iconqwiven:
And those scales in your link are small ones! So time consuming!
I have been wondering this for a while, how do you make a word into a link? Like you made 'ugh' connected to your page?
