<div class="IPBDescription">56k'ers, you've been warned.</div>Okay... So. I want only dragon or reptile-like-creature-related pictures on this thread. Because I love dragons and all lizards. ^.^
I would like to see what you can create, you all reading this forum.
My dragons so far aren't that beautiful. And I should draw some more of them. And I will. Soon.

But here are some, some of these were already seen on the other thread, too:

Was reading some Dragon Paint tutorials, so I made this...
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Scar.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

...and this
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/blackburn.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

I'm not that happy about the second one. Was just testing some extreme shading and it became a bit ugly.
Sorry Blackburn.

Then the big Thalessath dragoness project.
I wanted to test lots of different things on this one.
First, I made a pencil drawing:

<a href='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath.jpg' target='_blank'>http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath.jpg</a>
Inked it:
<a href='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath_ink.jpg' target='_blank'>http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath_ink.jpg</a>
And coloured it with wooden colouring pencils:
<a href='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath_c3.jpg' target='_blank'>http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath_c3.jpg</a>

I find the final result quite okay. The scanner killed the colors a bit though, and it became a bit too much 'comic stylish'.
And I should have added more shading. Lots more.

Here's a photo of the final pic on paper:
<a href='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thalessath_paper.jpg' target='_blank'>http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/Thales...ssath_paper.jpg</a>

I linked all Thalessath pics because there was so many of them about one dragon.

This is the dwaggin I drew a week back or so:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/dwaggin.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>
And I like the result. The original concept is by Ayame. Should have added more shading though, and I will at some point probably.

One of my first dragon pics:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/lohari1.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Another one:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/lohari2.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

And a naga creature:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/pikkunaga.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Anatomy stuff:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/anat1.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Just something random...
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/snuggly.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Chibi from Dragon Drive anime serie. Don't like how it turned out. Not enough shading:
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/chibi.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

And finally something that is supposed to look cute. 5 min sketch at 5am. :P
<img src='http://koti.mbnet.fi/~gale/drawings/poofie.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

Wow... Didn't know I had that many of them. And that's not all. I still have some random 'just heads' pics, which I'm not going to post here though.
As you can see, I'm not that much into colouring, yet. I'm going to draw lots of B&W pics now, and then later on start practicing colouring with Photoshop when I have lots of pics to try it on.
Also, I'm thinking of trying markers soon.. Mmm...
Superlong post. o.O

    Kylie... wow... I looked at your Deviant art thinger.


    You look so much like Orlando Bloom... it's downright eerie (Don't take that the wrong way, Orlando Bloom could in so many ways look like a chick too...)

    Yeash. Talesin, the original picture is by Ayame. I just re-drew it a bit differently, and then added some shading of my own. So most of the praises you can send directly to her. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif'><!--endemo-->
    At the moment, I'm re-drawing lots of other artists' works. When I've done that enough, I might come up with some more positions of my own.
    Or then I should do as many artists do when drawing anthros: Get a picture of a human and draw it as an anthro.

    Ayame has great art, and her sketches I'm re-sketching at the moment. I'm thinking of sketching and possibly inking and attempting to shade like ~20 more pics and then try something fancy of my own... I really need to learn the body anatomy.
    Ayame's site here: <span style='color:red'>*NUKED*</span>, and she really appreciates if you e-mail her comments about her work. ^.^

    And yeah, even though it's a 'Dragunov', it isn't organic, so no more such pictures, please. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    <span style='color:red'>*I hate having to do it as I love Ayame's stuff (and still have a backup of her archive under her name, before she switched it to that) but links are not permitted on the forums to sites which contain what could be considered pornographic material.* -Talesin</span>

    Wow, awsome Kylie <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
    The coloring is so damn great!
    I especially like the wolf dragons, the first sea dragon and the storm rider dragon.


    Don't know what other positiv things to say but I could criticize a few things ^_^

    "me in dragon form again":
    Your (^^) right hand seems to small or the other one to big. However you like it =)

    "the dragon riders":
    It seems like you don't have too much practice with drawing humans :/ (So do I). The ear is too high, the hairline too low for my taste, the eyes are imo too "comic" to fit to the rest of the picture, and the overall body build could use some improvement. Or maybe she's just supposed to be ugly =D
    The perspective of the dragons head looks a bit off. I think that's because of it's horns pointing to the left instead of the right.

    "with outstretched wings":
    Your ;P right wing is streched a bit backwards while your left one is stretched forward... Well... I could've explained that better but not with that english skills <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->. I don't know if that is intended but in case it's not I can think of two solutions to correct that. First you could correct the direction the wings are pointing to (Well, that was obvious) or you could make the left wing a looooot bigger so that it looks like both wings are stretched to the side ^.^ Ok, the second solution really sucks <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> Hehe
