Black Dragon

[charmanth]

Yeah, I used the same lineart, just different colors and a slightly different shading/highlighting technique.



What do you think?

[Kalia]

Char, I love your art style! It's vibrant and visually pleasing. Keep it up! Kudos to you.

[charmanth]

Thank you. I'm thinking about making adoptables with my art program. I just need to come up with an adoptable base..... And I'm thinking about doing the adoptables for Wajas, so I need to make marking and mutation files too.

[Kalia]

Oooh! That sounds interesting. Let me know if you do make them. I'll adopt one and put it up on my site next to your link on the Friends page.

[charmanth]

Okay, I'll let you know.

Nice Char I always think your dragons are good.
The dragon is cute.
I thought the markings reminded me of something.

[charmanth]

Well, these markings didn't come from Wajas... though they do look a little like tiger stripes. Just a little.

*Needs to come up with adoptable base still* *Sighs* Maybe I'll do something feline. Hehe. Felines on a canine site. Funny.

[Kalia]

Maybe some wolves?! *is hopeful* I have all the faith in the world in your artistic ability. I think you could do it. But then again, it's up to you.

[charmanth]

I could try a wolf. Wajas is a wolf pet breeding site, after all.

I don't have much in the way of vision, though, lol. Once I get my base up and get it digitally inked, I'll post it up for you guys to see. With watermarks (as I'll probably be a bit paranoid about it. seeing it will be my income for wajas).

[Kalia]

I don't blame you for being paranoid. I sometimes worry about putting up my own artwork. Mine has a lot to do with pride, though, too. However, you have every right to be paranoid and protective. I would be! Lol.

[charmanth]

I realize it's not the greatest, even compared to the works I have put up before. But this is about what I could do without a reference.

And actual adoptable size will be smaller. It's just easier to work with something big then shrink it.

[Kalia]

Ah! He's so cute. I want to cuddle him. *snatches adoptable and huggles* I adore it.

I can understand why you would want to do that. Working on a small format would make detail a lot more difficult, especially if you wanted to make the fur look shaggy like you have it drawn on the chest and stuff.

[charmanth]

Thanks. He's not quite proportionate, but I don't think it'll matter too much (I really think the head looks too big for the body.. I usually do that though)

[Kalia]

Actually, I thought that it was supposed to be like that. It looks as though you did a foreshortening effect on it. I still like it.

cute

I agree the wolf looks cute and cuddle.
Keep making wolfs.
