Artist's Comments

of the Chinese zodiac. Yay, only five left to go!


Now, let's all ignore the fucked up anatomy and the weird excuse for a hand, shall we?
The working title for this piece was "A seal in Purple Pudding", but I decided to go for the more classiv "The Dragon" in the end.

I was trying to get the feeling of a late autumn/ early winter morning, when there not yet snow on the ground, but the frost and mist is making the landscape white.


As usual, Photoshop 7, Wacom Graphire, about a day.

I love the colors, and especially the trees in the background. The wing tattoo is almost cheeky, I like it!

whoa. that came out more mindless than I thought...
Anyway, I'm loving this series of yours. This, definitely is my favourite, probably because it's my year! :) ('88)
The cool hues really make the image pleasing to look at! Quite contrasting to what Dragons are usually known for -- all that fire and shabam.
fav!

Thank you! :boogie:

I probably should have called it Sephiroth, I bet then everyone would've checked it out.. eh just kidding, sorry.

But yeah, there's tons of excellent artists here on dA, who should get more regocnition, as today's favourites or popular or whatever it's called now is pretty much the same few people all over again everyday... But then again, there's not much one can do about it, so I tend not to let it bother me :D

Thank you, I know you're really busy, so just thank you for checking it out :)

Heh, I have a weird obsession to match every color in my pictures.. I find it really difficult to work with contrasting and strong colors..
