Description

December 7, 2004 - Stratadrake

The second of my elemental dragons, here is the element of ice, now in his fourth (and possibly final) incarnation. When I started on this dragon, I wasn't quite sure if I could match the quality of detail I used for the fire element before him -- but in retrospect, I needn't have worried.

As the backstory behind my elemental dragons go, this is the incarnation of a ruling ice spirit, his body fashioned from that of a fallen white dragon, infused and reborn with the power of elemental ice. Ice itself being a form of water, he also weilds limited power over the water element.

Next element: Water (v4.0)

Medium: Colored pencil, and some eraser highlights. (for anyone curious, only three colors were used)
Time: About 5 hours
Scale (full view): 75px/in

Great work. You don't find very many realistic (as a dragon can be) art on FAC only using colored pencils and erasers.

A very well done pic Stratadrake. The detail is very well done(scales, crystal depth-detail, and color.) It would be nice to have a background.(which you do so well, I was impressed with your Okami Twilight picture.) But I'm not one to complain, especially since I don't even do any background. Overall, An A+. Please keep up the good work.
