Description A gift for ~ShatteredConfusions because it's her birthday this Saturday! I couldn't help it-- I knew I wanted to do a little present for her when I first learned her birthday was coming up, but at first I hesitated at doing her dragon persona, Shae, because all her other watchers were going to be drawing Shae as well. But then a bolt of lightning hit me and I said "d'uh!" So here she is, in all her glory: Shae transformed into 50% dragon and 50% human! (What does that make her? An anthro? A drangonthro? "Dragonthro"-- I'm such a dork!) Anyway, this is probably inspired by and therefore pays homage to a gift she did for me a little while ago-- which was incidentally spruced up while I was working on this gift!-- of my character, Zelenn, in a dragoness form. [link]

A note on the colors. ~ShatteredConfusions has a very beautiful traditional style of coloring with prisma colors, and so to keep Shae in her natural state as much as possible and pay a little more homage to the artist, I colored Shae in the style, too. ^__^ Unfortunately, the background looked so blank when I was done, and didn't seem to be that great a gift, so I scanned it in and embellished it with a star-filled night sky, which I considered somehow fitting. This is why I put it into the "Mixed Media" category. I know it says that the category doesn't include pieces created by both traditional and digital medias, but where else do you put it in??

So, to conclude, HAPPY HATCHING-DAY, ~ShatteredConfusions !! Hope you like it!

Wow! That looks really neat! Different from what you normally do with the scales and nighttime and such. Still has all of your usual life and energy though!

waaaao ! you know you make me speechless each time ? i'm always saying the same words ! that's not fun !!! well, let' me try :
as i get so much deviations today i opened them in so many windows and the after closing one, here was your's and i just get the top of the picture, didn't give attention to the name of the drawing or artist and just thought "hey what is that ? that's great !" and as scrolling the window and looking her face i recognise your style ! you colored it sooooooo wonderfully ! for the body and the face we could think that is was done on computer because we don't see the "lines" () of the pen ! :whorship:

Ooh, this is awesome! A great pose with something everyone loves - wings! I also very much like the way you highlighted the similarities between hands and wings by making a palm-like thingy. And I do like hands, especially well-drawn ones.
