Description
I've finally done my first dragon colo.... and it was ALOT of work... mostly because I had to work myself through alot of trial and error.This little goldwing is my entry for s dragon contest. The lineart was done by Beast3
The task was to choose one of his beautiful Lineart drawings and colour it.
Wish me luck on the contest.... I could definately use a few months premium

OMG O.O I love this picture~!!!!!!!!! but what the heck i LOVE dragons 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I love dragons too... I just don't generally do artworks with them cause I suck at dragon lineart. That's why that collab with beast3 made me so happy

Yeah i'm not as good at drawing them as well, but this was better then what i could do that's for sure

Oh wow, ist ja einiges was du aus dem bild geholt hast!
Die Schuppen und die Texturen an den Flüglen sind wirklich klase geworden!
Vielen Dank für deine Teilnahme und viel glück beim Wettbewerb

Habe am Anfang ein paar deiner Linearts ausgedruckt um zu sehen, welche ich am besten machen könnte. Da hat sich meine kleine Tochter eins geschnappt und es auch coloriert

Da kommt jemand ja ganz nach der Mama ^^

Hihi... ich fand auch, dass sie es gut gemacht hat. Sie erzählt schon immer überall, dass sie bestimmt mal viel besser malt als ich, wenn sie groß ist
Bin jetzt erst mal ne Woche im Urlaub. Viel Spaß noch mit dem Contest. Bin mal gespannt, was du noch für entrys bekommst.

very nicely done!
The wing membrane texture in particular is impressive
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanx. I like the wings aswell but they didn't take half as much time as doing all those scales....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe, well the membrane is a flat single surface at least. Scales are all individual with a slight curve
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes thats why... my hand still aches from drawing scales... I did do some shading on the veins of the wing membrane too but it wasn't half as time consuming.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe, I know what you mean. I've done some experimentation with texturing before but I've found it incredibly tedious for the most part. The biggest thing I've done with it was my daluga re-make space art a while back.

Erf ! It kills me to see how from this lineart you manged to create his skin and vein ! Great job.
But I don't understand... It is possible to import new brushes ? In wich soft ?
Anyway, good luck ^^

Thanx alot

Indeed I tried to import some brushes in CS5. Works great but... this is cheating ? xD

Good that it works for you.

Yeah I joked ^^ I understand, this is really an helpfull thing
But actually for the moment I would prefer to train myself to use the current brushes. And learn to use photoshop (in the drawing way, because I used to use as photo editor)
Do you know if there is any picture deplacements shortcuts in photoshop ? I mean like in paint tool Sai. There is something I love in sai is that you can rotate the picture with two key, this is really handy when you draw !

You are right to train yourself with the standart brushes first. I dare say that most people who are really good did this before using brushes.... it's more time consuming without brushes but they could get into the same effects without cheating
I don't know if there is a shortcut... you'd probably better ask someone else who has done more digital art than me. What I generally do is click the move tool and check the "show the transform options" field. that allows you to turn your picture around anyway you like (you can even flip it over, scale it ect.)
good luck
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, but, that tool actually move only the activated layer, don't move all the picutre... I think. It is the same than CTRL+T.
Anyway thanks you for the tip, I will use it this way. ^^
May I make appeal to your knowledge one last time ? XD
Do you know anything about texture ? It seems that some people use it also to paint. I guess it works with the perspective tool of photoshop ?
