I get the itch to paint a dragon every once and a while.

Hungry Dragon (D27)
This dragon looks hungry… Run Sir. Knight! Run!
I was only going to spend an hour painting today’s daily… I spent 3hours on it. I got stuck rendering the mouth (Mostly the top apparently), I have not rendered dragon’s mouth too much, it was a new challenge. What do you think of this dragon? Does it look too generic or do you think it’s design is decent?
Monster 12 Animated (Wip)
I really liked the design of my critter and decided to animate it. The main reason I bought the last humble bundle was for a animation program called Spriter Pro. I was able learn the software (compared to AE it was a cakewalk) and make a modular animation a couple hours. Granted I could have done the same animation in AE but It would have taken more time to set up.
Daily Paint 15 – Dragon sketch
20 minute dragon sketch. Wanted to spend longer but I have to get up early tomorrow.
Mr.Dragon is in a rage because his favorite mechanical pencil broke in half.
I been so busy with commissions and artwork for classes as of late I haven’t been able to paint much of personal projects. I sketch with a mechanical pencil, a Zebra, supposedly best mechanical pencil money could buy… and it broke in half after one month of use. It was disappointing but I didn’t go on a rampage and set the town on fire, at least not this time. I been trying to tell stories when I draw, even if it doesn’t show in the final image. I wanted to draw a dragon, and I thought “why is he angry?” Because his favorate mechanical pencil has broken in half. How is he going draw fair maidens now? About a hour and a half to make. Needs a little more clean up. I figured out a thing I need to work on after painting this. How to be playful with my paintings and not take the process so seriously. my sketches have been more imaginative since I started this.
Daily Painting No.7 (Bilbo Baggins)
Update: after work, couldn’t sleep. worked on it for 15 minutes trying to fix stuff.
I was pressed for time. So I am unable to finish it. It’s Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins. I might finish this painting… or not. I was going to include a review of the movie with this post, but I ran out of time..
Self Critique: finish the mouth and correct a minor error with it. Needs more refinement. Theirs something else..
Ref: still from the 2012 film
time spent: 1 hour +15 min
Daily Painting # 7
A mouse scorns a crocodile
Might not be the smartest thing for a mouse to do… I enjoy doing these fun little drawings with animals. I like the interaction between the two characters. It’s also one of the few drawings I have done where the horizon line is not visible. I painted this in Photoshop with Wacom tablet.
To my excitement WordPress has notified me that I have 500 wordpress readers following my blog (635 readers total). A big thank you goes out to all my readers and everyone who has been watching my work , commenting, and giving me feedback. It means a lot to me and has given me motivation to continue improving myself as a artist. 😀
