Shweetness. I can't draw dragons very well. I've been practicing, though.

Astonishing details. The lines are smooth and blend in together very nicely^^ You have loads of talent^^

Hi there!  Thank you very much!  I'm glad you like it and thanks for commenting and visiting me in my gallery!  *grins*

thats glorious! i wish i had the attention span to do that kind of work.

Attention span!? lol  My attention could only last about an hour a night for about a week

Great detail to the scales and the rock.

Hey thanks Doc! Nice of you to visit my gallery!

Marvellous, I love the composition of the page!

It's a great piece, I don't think you need more definition on the scales - I think it'd get too fussy and with dragons a lot of it is all about the dramatic lines of the body and not the tiny little things. The only thing I cold find to concrit on is the shadows - using a softer pencil on the really, really deep shadows (mainly the bits of the belly behind the fore and hind-legs) would bring a bit more depth. Also I couldn't place the light source exactly - I guessed top right and out of the page? If so would there be a band of shadow cast by the tail on the back wing? Just a nitpick though, it's just as good without it.

Also, I <3 his smug little smile!

Actually I was thinking the light was from the sun coming up on the lower angle from about the middle of the page to the right so that the shadow was cast just a little above the dragon... The crag he is on is at a peculiar angle though, so perhaps I just messed up a bit on the shadow behind his head....  Hmmm...  *squints at Draco*

*APPLAUDS*
That's too good to be true ^^
I just cannot describe how much I like the detail in this pic. Especially the scales and the shading! Must've taken you ages!:)
*FAVES*

Aww, thanks!  I'm glad you feel there is enough detail... That was one of my worries...

That's....w0w.....I wish I could draw dragons....but it's so....snake like...especially its neck..great shading....must've taken a while....feeling the grin...almost mischivous.....

Thanks!  That's what I was shooting for....  I haven't seen you in a while!  You must be busy!

heh...I got it...1st try...lol..

I took a lil break...but
check out the CP forum sometime

I sure will!... *tries hard to think what CP is*  Oh!! Critique Panel??  Okay I'll have a looksee....

How can you not be satisfied with this beautiful piece of pencil work?! I adore the pic and love the dragon's cheeky grin. Do more dragon drawing, please!!

Thank you so much for the nice comment... I  most definitely will draw more dragons.  LOL...  Well, I don't HATE the picture, I just meant I'm more used to drawing them about 4 to 6 times bigger, and that way I have more detail...  I just felt that it lacked some detail...  Also I haven't drawn in pencil, except to sketch, for like about a decade... I forgot how soft the stupid 6B Pencils are... I had one about half the length of a regular pencil and now it's down to a nub... And it's nearly impossible to keep it nice and sharp for more than 2 seconds...  LOL  So, you see where I'm coming from?

*nods* Hence, I only use 3B pencils. Last longer. I find that pencils like 6B and up are too soft for my type of drawing, and yes, I can relate to the constant sharpening of the pencil.

I applaud the pencil detail artwork techniques applied and leave the criticism to others (I’m not here to nit-pick)! I know what I like and this is a nice piece!

Thank you very much!  You are very kind!  I like your work as well!  How long have YOU been drawing?

AACK!!..
poor us(the contestants of less experience)...curse you...curse you well...
 
REALLY great drawing!!

Well, I can say with certainty, I've never been cursed WELL before... LOL  I don't know what YOU'RE talking about, because I've seen your gallery... You have terrific skillz, and it looks like to me like you have experience in art!  LOL  If I could have a "well curse" does that mean that no matter how hard I try to fail at something, I'll always succeed??  It's kind of a paradox though, trying to fail and failing at failing, so maybe that would be the end of the world or something! LOL  

well really its a meaningless gesture...it just cancels it self out..

Oh!  *whew* what a relief!  Then I'm not cursed and can go back to living my life! LOL  Thanks for the compliment!
