Description ~~~


Epic scene commission for of none other than the beautiful Saybin, enjoying a warm cup of chai tea and a campfire on a blustery, clear winter's night.


Mmm, I really enjoyed working on this one, I'm so happy with how it turned out. ^^  I'm super happy with how Saybin looks, as always, but I really put extra time and work into that background, and I really think it shows!


I've really been enjoying my realistic shading lately.


Thanks again Saybin!  Hope ya like!

The coloration in this piece really helps bring your eye to the dragon, then to the sky, and then back to the dragon. The setting brings a cozy mood to mind especially because I live in these conditions.
The complexity and detail are exemplary!
What i love from this is the shadowing and shading are corresponding to the colour it is covering, (you did not use just black and white to do so)
The fire seems to be lacking compared to the rest of the picture. See if you can add some more detail to the flame and smoke, or the stones/wood that is being burned.
Next time try to experiment more with different colours for the fire because not all dragons have the same colour of fire.
One last thing you can improve on is adding footprints and intensifying the blue shadow under the dragon to help it pop more.
To note, I love the innocence of the hot cocoa next to the dragon!
All-in-all a really amazing piece
Keep up the great work meh fluffeehh!

Very nice..~

Btw, I noticed that in the submission details, it reads a resolution of 4000×2337. Do you have the full resolution download setting disabled?

And indeed - I don't have the full-size file of this (and most of my works for that matter) available for public viewing due to theft.

Its unfortunate that we have to take these measures..

Ever since I got my new laptop, everything looks so small. xD

Looks wonderful, especially the background, but that bright blue space between the wings (near the wing tips)... is that part of the character or is that a background mistake? Or something else I'm missing?

The expression, pose, wings, horns,tail,design, chai tea, mountains, plant life, sky, moon, aurora, snow, composition, concept, uniqueness, style, colors, lighting, and other details are also spectacular! Awesomely epic work!

A heartwarming fire to light up one tender winter night. Doesn't get more comforting than this in the depths of cold, I suppose.

Thanks! They're a combination of a bunch of brushes and some light gradients - a stock aurora brush mixed with a 'hard airbrush,' smudging, and a big gradient overtop of it all. ^^
