Description

January 21, 2004 - WynaHIros

Actually part of a portfolio I'm trying to make right now: you know, to show I can do other stuff besides anime (aka: I call it the "possible transfer to art school" portfolio)

It was going to be a random dragon, and then I thought of Smaug's speech/arrogant boasting, and I ended up starting to draw him. What can I say? I have a soft spot for the old dragon.

Anyways, I drew him boasting, and inadvertently showing Bilbo the weak spot on his breast. The Smaug quote is from "The Hobbit" (erm, obviously o.o;;; ).

Got lazy and didn't bother doing the rest of his lair/hoard. BAH.

Materials: Pencil. Lots of pencil. And Photoshop for the crappy wording.

--Wyna

The Hobbit is (C) J.R.R. Tolkien etc.

Gah! I love it! I can't draw dragons to save my life so I don't even try, which is ironic. maybe if I tried I would get better...

You know you're obsessed when you have that memorized lol. I love The Hobbit, Smaug and Gollum (or Smeagol you're choice but I prefer his evil side). Great job on Smaug! Now I've got the scene stuck in my head, I played Smaug in a skit with that scenein it. XD

Wow you did a very good job... I have seen a lot of beautiful dragon drawings and this really qualifies in my list of favourite dragons...

Mar 12, 2004 02:21 AM by: Gaeas

Holy manolly! o__O; That's so cool! May not look like Smaug to DF, but I say, that's some hardcore shading you got there.

Jan 31, 2004 10:58 AM by: DragonFire

That is not at all how he looks and i showed know i have the orignal book with photos!Bot i hafe to admit its not bad but it does'nt look like smaug

Amaizing! It looks realistic!

Jan 21, 2004 04:34 AM by: kemile_2000

wow. not bad there. I always liked smaug and I love peoples views on how he looks. You did a nice job!

Jan 21, 2004 04:32 AM by: Mechpencil

Whoa...very good, Do you rememebr the animated version? For some reason every time I read the book I see that Smaug instead of a truely reptilian-like dragon that Tolkein wanted us to picture dear old Smaug as.

Jan 21, 2004 04:31 AM by: Spazcat101

Holy COW o_O That's incredible!!! Oh that's so cool! Very very well done!

Heh... my English teacher read The Hobbit to us in 6th grade and I loved Smaug... :)
