Description Yet another commission for *ksilebo , this time of a two-headed anthro hexadragon that seems to be oblivious to the finger-pinching dangers of a very suspiciously colored venus flytrap.

I had some sort of miniature heart-attack while working on this because I resized it to about 30% of its original size right after I finished it (but before I sent it to the commissioner) and absentmindedly saved over it, but I managed to restore it to almost its former glory by resizing it again and redefining some of the more affected areas.

Please don't add this to your favorites without commenting on it as well.

That is a really snazzy commission.
I love how you've colored the hexadragon; the colors blend into eachother very well. I also love the traditional painting feel of the coloring, really cool.

How much does a commission like this normally run? (just wonderin'

Thanks! I try to make my digital paintings look almost like they could've been done with gouache or something; makes them more interesting. Oh, and commission wise, a picture like this would be somewhere in the ballpark of $50, give about $25 or take about $10 . It really depends on the specifics of the commission.

Because I don't think people should add things to their favorites if they can't even say what they like about them.

I like the pretty colors, and your piranha plants. They remind me of my childhood.

Oh, and the sky is pretty too.

The little plant seems related to the infamours Super Mario Piranha Plants, how cute. ^^ The feathery clouds add a superb atmosphere, and the creature itself is a real eye-catcher. Which is not supposed to be a lame shot at its many eyes. Hehe. Double pectorals for double arms.

Ehee. And you say you can't find interesting themes or poses for your pictures. I love their contrasting expressions, and how the details on the dragon are all sharp and refined. Yaaay carnivore plant.

YOU'SE AMAZING OKAY. Fav'd.
