Practice after Mixed Media course
-
Thanks @Sarah-LuAnn for the feedback, much appreciated
I'm going to tweak it this evening and see what I can do. -
@Dulcie Lovely work. It's so playful and I like the water colour textures.
-
This is so great. I love the mouse character. The dragon has a very "Dino" (Flintstones) look to him/her.
-
oh yeah! wonderful! As said earlier, you could work on the shadow on the ground. Lights and shadows a bit...It really speaks gorgeous!
-
Very gorgeous rendering, terrific character design, sweet composition !
-
Thank you @Nightseye @mattramsey @Leontine for your thoughts and encouragement, it's really nice to know when you're on the right track! I've deepened the shadows on the ground and contact shadows, hope that helps separate the tummy from the ground a bit more... I think I'm done now.
@mattramsey yes I can see what you mean about the 'Dino' look - it was going to be a green dragon but that didn't work against the foliage.
-
Wonderful! It just screams for a short story. I am so curious of what happens next. Is the mouse running of of will he throw a stick? ...Than the dragon is really going to make some pits into the soil...XD
-
@Dulcie The delicate inquisitive look that the mouse has really is perfect.

@Dulcie I got a huge grin on my face after seeing your beautiful illustration this morning! I'm tickled that my class helped - it feels very tradtional!
-
this is so amazing! the expressions are fantastic! you could always go red or blue if you want to avoid Dino, but i love the purple so i think it's great!! making the nose skinnier would pull away from that as well
he's just too cute to mess with in my opinion hehe -
@Leontine I haven’t decided what happens next (maybe I should decide!) but my thoughts are that the dragon has just woken up from a loooong hibernation, and everything is new and amazing.
@Ace-Connell Thank you
@Will-Terry Thank you, I’m delighted that it made you smile.
@Lynn-Larson I agree that red and blue are also great colours for a dragon, and also yes about the nose, I like dragons with pointy noses too. I will draw more dragons! So many possibilities…
-
This is gorgeous! I love the style, the story and the characters. I'm also really coveting your background & foliage skills!
-
@amberwingart Hey thanks, that's very kind of you to say
Hoping to return to doing more dragons soon... -
i like it a lot!! nice piece!!
thanks for sharing -
@smoke Thank you
-
@Dulcie Great image and technique. Such good storytelling with this image. I too am waiting to turn the page!
-
OH so good! I love your characters and soft background. Can't wait to take that course now.
-
@Rob-Smith @bharris Thank you both! I will have to think what to put on that next page...
-
I love it.

@Dulcie Isn't there something especially fun about dragons? I just started a dragon & a fox & I'm in heaven :). What media is this?
