Description This is a closeup of an as of now unfinished drawing of a dragon. I may complete it one day, but the rest of it won't be as fun to draw as the face, so who knows?

Prismacolors on bristol board.

Nice expression. I love your coloring job the best! So smooth and such brillant modeling with the yellow, green and blues... gives a nice feeling of depth and lighting.

Thanks!

I kind of lost steam after doing the face and the arms--there is more to this piece, but I just lost interest after doing the fun part.

Thanks, buddy! Prismas are one of my favorite media to work in. I'm glad you like this guy.

After staring at this for quite a while I finally figured out what makes it so different from a lot of art. There aren't any inked lines. I think that makes it flow so wonderfully. It looks like it's digital in the thumbnail, and it's full pencil glory shows in the fullview.

The paper of your drawing pad really lent itself well to creating a superior texture throughout the piece - Looks almost as if the skin is dry and pebbly! On full view there is quite a bit of debris in the white area......(don't kill me)

Finish Him!!!!!

Thanks baby! Maybe I will finish him... The rest of him won't be as fun to do, though.

Yeah, damn pencils always make those crumbs, and they get embedded in the paper. Also, I'm sloppy. I should have 'shopped them out, I know. Ah well. I won't kill you. Can I tackle you and stuff, though?

Quit with the 'no fun' B.S. !! Of course it's no fun!! It's Art!! And dammit, YOU WILL FINISH!! There's a train leaving for the "showers" at Sobibor at 08:00 if you don't comply!

Mmmm, shiny teeth!
Thanks! I'm glad you like him so much! He was a lot of fun to draw and to color. I only wish that I had the motivation to finish him. Maybe one day I will.


I used prismacolor colored pencils for this. I should have specified, but I forgot that they make markers too.
