;276718']Uh no.
Sorry, just needed to say something. I really like the first one.

How'd you do the last one?

I really like them all, the second one could use some slightly longer legs, and the photomanipulation is very nice. I do like the one from Warcraft, but I've never really liked adapted drawings. ^_^ So long as you give credit it's cool.
Your duck is just cute. I love him dearly.
The first one is my favorate, but it's hard to see if they are fighting or mating (it could go either way.) The proportioning is very nicely done, the details are amazing in contrast to the simplistic space of their hides. The only real issue I have is the teeth. Not to sound mean, but they remind me strongly of the balleen from hunchbank whales more then they do fangs. But that's really the only thing I don't like about it. This art is very, very good. How old are you again?
Keep up the good work.

I should have specified. I didn't actually create it. It was an old image for Warcraft 3, of the Night Elf. I simply went in and messed with it for awhile, like I do with many things.

Ah, ok. I still like the rest though. :)

If my scanner was even a little less crappy you'd actually be able to see the details of that first one. You can see the space between the teeth, makes it look like fangs instead of baleen. And I've heard that comment about whether they are fighting or mating before. Honestly, I don't even know anymore.
The second one's legs was a major issue because at that point I was fighting with space on the paper itself.
And I'm sixteen. Thanks for the comments :)

Nice attention to detail in all of them. :thumbs
You're one of those nit-picky drawers who tends to focus on itty-bitty stuff first. That has both advantages and disadvantages. My advice would be to get more sketchy, draw bigger, but that's generally my advice to anyone.

Sometimes I really wish I could draw.
Awesome work.

Brilliant work! I like it.
I'll agree with Denethor on how you're very detail-oriented. I really like the scales you put on the dragon in those chains. Plus, your Photoshopping skills are excellent, too, especially your reimagining of the WarCraft 3 box cover art.
You should Photoshop the first two sketches. ^_^

The second one would have drove me insane trying to photoshop. But here's the first one.

It wasn't what I was going for but I liked how it turned out. Matched with the whole darkness of the situation.. whatever that situation may be.

I would have liked this one more had the shadowing between the two not turned out so red. But everywhere else looked fine.

This is basically what I had in mind when I first started messing with this sketch.

This is just what it looked like after I outlined it with a paintbrush in Paint Shop Pro 7. Oh, and I fixed the teeth.
Once again, comment away. Criticism is appreciated.

the dragon with all the detail on it
is interesting to me. try taking a
large piece of aluminum foil and
wrinkle it all up and try and draw
it with graphite. its a great way
to raise your level of focus and
concentration.

I still love that first one? I was curious-Would you mind terribly if I attempted coloring them myself? I would adore the practice, and I think it's phenomianally beautiful!
I recommend people to stay away from digital coloring/inking until they know what they're doing with natural mediums. But cool ****.

Oh, go ahead. Just as long as I get to see when you're finished.
