An exceptionally strong piece.

I think you have done an excellent job with the texture of her scales, horns, and skin. The color contrast is great and really adds to the depth and vibrance of the painting, very eyecatching. I like the use of her breath weapon and it is a nice contrast to the angular textures of the dragon and adds to the visual flow of the painting.

The subtle expressiveness and detailing of her face grabs the viewers attention and adds to the stylized realism of the painting.

There are only a few minor problems with this piece that I can critique. The primary thing is a lack of depth on the back of her head (hair?) and between her neck horns and scales. This could beadjusted with some heavier linework around them and a better use of highlights as you did in the face. The other problem I see is a little disorientation of the scales/skin under her jawline and neck... It doesn't seem to have the same flow as the rest of the painting..

Again, I think that this is a VERY strong piece of art and I love the technique you used with the watercolors...

Wow this is really well detailed, I love the coloring of the scales and the water color background is AMAZING.

FAV!!! ^_^




the only thing that I see is the eye. It doesn't seem focused on the target, more so she is looking off into the distance.

But im not sure if im right or not, im not very good at this. >.>

Oh brilliant dragon! Your anatomy is certainly improving, and of course your brilliance is colors and detail do ever amaze me. Great work! Totally wish I had a dragon character, I would have loved to see what you could have done with him/her. :D

Wow! :wow:

Do you use any pencils in this picture? Like Polychromos for colour or art liners to make out the dark lines?
