How do you have the patience to do all those scales! And get them so perfect!

Justicemilk_Vegetablewoman on March 12, 2005, 3:19:21 AM

I've tried doing scales before. Yours looks much better than mine.

0_0 cool!

Holy crap, man! Your dragons are so kick-@$$! I wish I could draw Chinese-styled dragons like that! But I'm always so lazy I never feel like adding scales to it. LoL I always put them in section on the dragon or make it furry. LoL Nice job!

Queen_Asheer5600 on January 25, 2005, 1:01:13 AM

Ah yes Scales can be a real burden if your not used to them :D trust me I am very used to that little fact :) but I usually don't do the scales in the lineart I always put them in when I color so that makes it harder on me. I have always loved the Japanese/Chinese styled dragons because of their curves, I could just never get them out on paper.

Awsome!

Stratadrake on January 11, 2005, 2:48:21 AM

It may feel like forever (I do know what that's like, when I draw I spend an average of about four hours on each), but the actual scales make it look FAR better than basic shading or mere lineart. My favorite part about this is how the scales vary in size on the face and arms.

Add in a little more shading around the edges to help the dragon feel a little more roundish, and maybe some color, then it'd be perfect.
