Description Marvel at my ability to write fantastic titles!

My mind went blank so no description for this one yet.

Also I was orginally drawing my Dusky Dragon saphiredragon16.deviantart.com… again, but the design changed a bit, and the fiery colours of the wings are only seen on the inside.

*** *** ***

Size - A4, Media - WHS pencils

I felt like starting to do my borders again, and then realised I didn't own a ruler anymore and had to go buy one lol. I found these pencils sitting in my drawer and decided to experiment ~ got to say I quite like them.

Feedback always appreciated!

I like to think that this dragon was teaching its hatchlings how to make art!

Mother- "You see? All you need to do is swirl your fire a little bit and bam! You've made a van Gogh!"
Hatchling 1- "Mommy, why did you set fire to that town? Will the humans be okay?"
*Sounds of people screaming.*
Hatchling 2- "They don't sound okay..."
Hatchling 3- "Why didn't you just start a little more that way? You could have avoided the whole town?"
Mother- "Shhhhhhhh, to achieve great art sacrifices must be made!"

Great work with this piece, I love the mix of swirled colors! 
(As you can probably tell it reminds me of Starry Night...)

Haha, now that you've pointed it out I see it. Guess this dragon has a background story after all. The best kinds of art include a few mortal souls and sacrifces, silly hatchling! XD

Art is considered quite a calming or stress releasng hobby...

How to Art;
Make lots of fire.

Change its colour and magically swirl into colourful fireballs.

Now proceed to throw them at anyone that has annoyed you that day.

Helps to reduce stress every time ~ I guarantee those causes of stress will not be seen again! ;3

Man, dragons have the best stress relieve techniques! Maybe I should takes some classes, with a flameproof suit of course!

Picking up a mortal, dropping them a few hundered metres, and catching them before they die is also a good stress- reliever. Said mortals that have annoyed you previously will now stay out of your way. ;3

Yeah, I would recomend fire-proof gear. xD

Alright, so stuff to bring to dragon country,

Fire-proof gear, flight suit for getting dropped, and probably some hot chili pounder to make sure they don't get too curious with licking! How does that sound?

SaphireDragon16 In reply to Pearlbomber [2017-05-23 19:43:55 +0000 UTC]

Maybe not the chili powder, unless you're fond of it yourself when cooking ~ I believe some dragons might find it a curious abnormal scent so it might draw attention. Otherwise your checklist is coming along nicely. Maybe bring a disposable friend or sibling to use as a decoy too.

Lol, I'm just imagining myself trapped in a valley with dragons surrounding me and I'm like, "Stay back, I have chili powder!" But they'd just be more curious and get closer... They might even like spicy food!

Ah, I see... A disposable friend... Guess I'm not traveling in dragon country with you if it's just the two of us! I'll need to be sure there's at least a third person with us!

SaphireDragon16 In reply to Pearlbomber [2017-05-23 21:10:12 +0000 UTC]

Haha they might ~ it appears the wild dragons are immune to the effects of the Legendary Chilli Powder! Wild dragons take 0 damage to HP...
I hate spicy foods myself - taste horrible! O~O

I'm not one of your disposable friends? Yay!
Although that is a pretty wise decision ~ as the one much more familiar to the dragon territories, you should survive longer with me as a travel companion. Hmm...I think I know a few disposable humans I could drag along as dragon snacks - I mean decoys - I mean companions...

Pearlbomber In reply to SaphireDragon16 [2017-05-23 21:56:41 +0000 UTC]

0 damage and it might even enhance they're fiery breath! 
Spicy food are iffy with me. I like them sometimes but only to a certain point, not a very spicy point... 

Maybe not if I was your only companion! 
Good, just don't forget to bring snacks for us as well!
Quick question, do you think dragons would be more or less inclined to like me if I brought a flamethrower?

SaphireDragon16 In reply to Pearlbomber [2017-06-18 14:14:40 +0000 UTC]

Well  it was nice knowing you haha ~

That's a wise decision ~ Don't worry, I shall add extra brownies and mints to be shopping list! Um, I think you're best bet would be avoid the flamethrower and not do anything to draw attention to yourself...

Pearlbomber In reply to SaphireDragon16 [2017-06-18 23:20:05 +0000 UTC]

 

Yeah, brownies and mints! I'll use my expert baking skills to make mint brownies! 

Ah, in that case, I better bring a disguise!

SaphireDragon16 In reply to MaskedDragonLin [2017-02-19 19:23:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you ~ at first I was concerned that I had messed up the scales, since I did the lineart whilst on a bus. Lesson learnt. Buses are not good for smooth lineart aha.

But I think the colours kind of mask that, and I'm happy that you like the colours on the scales!

MaskedDragonLin In reply to SaphireDragon16 [2017-02-19 21:25:52 +0000 UTC]

Most vehicles are pretty bad for linearting, though it's good that it didn't cause you any big mistakes

SaphireDragon16 In reply to MaskedDragonLin [2017-02-19 22:27:15 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that's true. I would say the only vehicle that is sometimes okay to draw on would be trains if you can sit at a table. xD

Noted, if I get bored while on a train, drawing is a viable option.

That is true, ink can look create with some things, but I feel like pencil offers more control and oppurtunity to experiment. ^-^

Thank you, it took a while for me to draw the wings in a position I was content with aha, but eventually I decided partially folded was the best they were going to get. xD
But it was fun colouring them with the new pencils.
