Dragon fury WIP
 

Well I have signed up for a Pixel GFX compo with the titel: Dragon Fury.. So I have decided to post pictures from the creation of the picture... The reason why i do it is to get comments so I can make it better and to show all you nice people how i make a picture on my computer... Enjoy

Say what?!

some of the lines look a bit "hakket". Why is that?

What's up with your signature anyway?! Did you get a sex-change operation? :eek: :p

Well its "hakket" because its an early sketch so...

And a Pixel GFX Compo is a drawing contest where you only use a computer and nothing else...

Well i have told you before that I am a girl trapped in a mans body, and im lesbian...

So here is an update: I have chosen to make the hole wing and move the left hand down... well thats about it...

Looks better this way! So what's the prize in this competition?

So that's why you're so damn fond of Hawaian shirts! :p

Well the price is 200,- Dkr and some computer hardware

Hell yeah...

Uuuuhhh! If you win you're buying snegle! :D

Well no if I win that money it is going for futurama season 4... but you still owe me for that christmas dog i colorized for you...

Update: well a littel quick coloring...

Oh right.

Say, I wanna borrow your Futurama Box then. I still haven't seen season 4 yet :|

Nice colors but what about shadows?

Well the shadow and detail comes later this is a work in progress... is there no one else than nancy who will comment on this...

of course they will but they're asleep right now. Patience dude!

I think red on the line of "scales" down his back as opposed to the brown. Also the top part of his thigh seems that it should be convex, rather then the concave you have drawn.

More muscle detail. May I suggest a "cat" eye? Meaning a verticle slit for a pupil?

And I think the feet need one more toe/claw, toward the back of the foot. Like a "thumb" more or less.

Well first of alle the red will destroy the idea of a golden dragon ...

hmm no dont think a cat eye would do it im thinking more of this flaming fanzy in the eyes..

is it supposed to be a chinese dragon or a celtic dragon...make sure you know the anatomy differences between the two so you dont mix them up....what is the "idea" of a golden dragon?

If golden is what you're going for I would lighten the color some, it looks more like butterscotch

shanifaye: this is a WIP = Work In Progress so im going to put the color and the effest on later this is how i create a picture from the start...

Well I have always been fasinated by the storys of the gold dragons. They are these noble dragons, you could compare them with the knights in shining amour... and only use thiere strengt to carry out the good in the world...

ok...I know this is going to sound dumb...but since you are going with the celtic golden dragon....why are you having him destroy the castle in your picture?

ohh, sorry but shani has got you there, it seems that you are not taking the criticism as constructive. I am sure that no one is talking crap, but are trying to help you with advise on your image, which I feel is the main reason for posting work on the forum. but you seem put off by comments people are making.

since this is a WIP, maybe you should wait and post it when it is farther along.

so far it is comming along nicely though

You are right im sorry for not taking the criticism very good. Well this is my first WIP.

maybe i should have told yo this before:
Well the story of the picture i have in my head is about this golden dragon whos dragon whelp have been kidnapped by an evil wizard who wants to control the golden dragons but mummy is out for vengence.

Maybe i also sholuld have made the castle more evil...

Well I have somthing to work with and thats good...

shanifaye : Damn next time i draw a dragon im going to ask you damn you know a lot of them...

Well moved a littel on and made some detail in the face...

About time! :D

lol I really wasnt trying to be "critical" I just didnt want someone looking at your pictures (that might know as much about dragons as me) and count it against you because something might not be "right" lol, thats why I asked for clarification

I like the coloring change to the face :thumbsup:

Well I asked for c&c so im glad that someone wanted to say somthing about it... well moved a littel futher so here is an update:

Almost there! :thumbsup: So what do the guys from the other forum think of it so far?

What other forum this is the only forum im posting

I just assumed this was going on in another forum.. my bad!

well its okay nancy i forgive you :D

its looking a lot better, I like the added detail

slowly getting an end of the dragon details...

I still think the tops of the thighs ought to be rounded the other way, more of a muscular look.

i agree. the shape of the thigh is strange.

You are right... So im going to change it right away...

Hey, nice work there. Can't wait to see what you do with the crumbling parts of the towers.
Hehe, Nancy and Dizzet are so damn funny... :D

That looks awesome man. Dragons kick ass.

any more progress on this? finished article perhaps, have enjoyed seeing the work come on through diff stages.

well its not finished yet but i have been a liitel busy but i have some time off work now so next week i should finish this picture...
