This drawing took like, 6-7 hours. :faint:


Well, it's officially year of the dragon (for everyone but China, since they have their new year a little later), and the first dA has seen this great year. : D

So, of course, I needed to draw something.

Anyways, onto the pic. :u

SO. MANY. LIGHT SOURCES. I hate drawing multiple light sources, they annoy me sometimes. XD That's usually why I just practice using one light source for most of my drawings, lol.

Also, you see that mose of the light should be coming from the city lights below? Wrong. :lol: There are fireworks above the dragon. *O*

A little lesson on light sources... lol.

KASJDLASJD this is taking just forever to load. xD 86%... ;-;

89%...

anndddd...


processing. >:C

done! :lol:

I LOVE the shading on the scales, this is a REALLY good pic! :D

Only thing I can think of are the spikes on the back, when I think of dragons, I usually imagine them with...rounder spikes, not quite as flat 030 but that's just me ^^; I'm not really good at dragon anatomy, so I wouldn't know
also maybe a bit more 3Dish effect from shading? Aand the teeth on the top of the mouth, maybe some teeth showing from the other side of the mouth? I don't know...xD


Overall I think it is a great pic and very detailed! :3

This looks great! I admit the feather on the tail it a little random, and it looks like a lizard, however the technique was awesome,and the dragon coming out of a (firework????) the horns are cool, but the ones folded back are a little weird, I guess I just imagine that their horns are all pointed, so a point for creativity, um, this doesn't look exactly like a Chinese dragon, but it's probably better if you don't copy one exactly either, (just a little torn on that part) so yeah keep at it and keep being awesome
Thanks for reading
