Awesome ^^ looking forward to it :D
Also this is amazing details for first ever sketch!

Have you read the Earthsea books by Ursula Le Guin? The dragons described in it evoke awesome images of ancient force... Would enjoy seeing your interpretations as inspired by that!

I have not, but I just searched and I definnitely should read the series. Thanks for recommendation.

I just love your dragons so much! I really enjoy your posts - I love your break lines, how detailed you are with your process and explaining your process. All of these guys have such a personality! I love the four that were your favorite and I especially like the ones that have similarities to seahorses!

Thank you :D I hope to see more of your work soon :) It's been some time!
If you like seahorse than 16 fits :D
Morequie- A deepsea dragon, that has softly glowing fins and lives in groups. It loves to visit the shores in the moonlight, illuminating them in a soft teal color.

Squee Yes I love it and your description of Morequie! Sounds beautiful :D

Yes, I have been sharing work, but I have ran out of some of my older paintings and photos to share, so I have been working on creating new paintings for content. Its just taking me longer as sometimes my daily schedule doesn't allow for a sitting. I am working on Wonder Woman now - she is almost done! I am trying to finish her tonight so I can do my post about her tomorrow. I recently painted Hermione from Harry Potter - she can't be voted on any more but you could go check her out if you want :) Painting; https://steemit.com/art/@j-vo/digital-painting-hermione and Timelapse: https://steemit.com/art/@j-vo/time-lapse-digital-painting-of-hermione-granger-from-harry-potter <3

The Hermione painting is incredible! I still really love HP, and reread it occasionally.
Yeah, understand what you mean about speed and time :) Luckily for me, I still have more old art in reserve.
Looking forward to the Wonderwoman! :D

Thank you :) I used to be blazing fast - I feel confident it will pick up again. Oh, yes, I still have lots of things I could share, but its a ton of graphic design, web design, and other things that I worry wouldn't capture as much interest.. Perhaps I need to go back through and re-consider..

extraordinary post is very appropriate to be trending, hopefully I also one day later my post can be trending like you.

If you're an artist, I made a post 10 days ago for tips on how to improve your posts and get noticed ^^

Very nice picture, I really like the dragon .. although dragon looks very cruel because it issued a fire from his mouth .. but for me it is amazing.

Haha thank you. Very few are cruel, most are wise and some very cute :)

My God I LOVE dragons! You did some amazing job there! My favorite one I think is number 41 :)

Thank you :D
Her name is Lavella- she is small like a cat and very energetic. Loves butterflies (not food) and tea ^-^

I love cats too :D Not butterflies though :P But tea yes!!! :D And LAVELLA my God I love the naaaame <3 <3 <3

Thank you, so glad! :3

Thank you! :D
If you have a favorite let me know so I can give it a name ^^ <3

@kristyglas Gorgeous dragons! I'd love to see the full dragon on at least one of your favorites :). My favorites #14, #19 & #30 :). Looking forward to seeing more.

Thank you very much :D
I'm considering making some in pixel art and some this style. Have to figure out body types first ^^
Termille (14)- A wise, but ferocious dragon. Has no patience for silly things, but always makes right decisions.
Jericious (19)- Fast as the wind. It's spikes are of harder than diamonds, with slight metallic sheen.

This is beautiful! Love all the little details you put into each one of them, making them unique! 28 is my favorite too, it reminds me of a very innocent version of the harry potter ones. And the hair of n24 is AMAZING! It surely gives us something to envy haha♥

Thank you!
Now that you mention it, it really does remind me of HP the good times xD
Gralia (24)- Born of star meteorites and it's mane glows in the darkest nights. ^^

These are wonderful! Love 'em. :)

Thank you <3 ^^

I like the dragons! You are very creative! For me, the best friendly are the first and the 15th and the best cute is the 38th. :)

Thank you :D Your art is so lovely!
Lybran (1)- Pure elegance. Loved to fly all day and regularly sleeps on clouds.
Rozumy (15) Much older than it looks with love for books. Also very agile and cunning.
Kasany (38)- A gem dragon. It's blue like sapphire and just as stunning. A very calm presence.

My sister and I used to draw dragons for friendly competition when we were younger. This reminded me of that. Wonderful and creative 😄

Thank you :D
Do you still have them to share here? ^^

Oh gosh no, I don’t have much of anything from my childhood anymore. This has inspired me to give dragons another go though! I’ll do a post and tag you 😄

Sweet :D Looking forward to it! If I miss it, just leave a message here ^^
The steemit mentions tool isn't working lately.

Will do!

Cool how different they all are! I've actually been thinking of doing a dragon Mandala. Maybe this is a sign! lol Found you from the "steemartists" tag, followed you :)

Sounds awesome :D Definitely would love to see and I'm sure many others would too ^^

Such character... love the whimsically simple eyes which lends a childlike quality to these adorable beasts!

Also, I had never before now heard of or seen a Sunda Colugo. Industrious neurons have just fire themselves together and reserved a newly created spot in my brain for this obscure knowledge.

Thank you :D
Yeah there are many animals that you'd never even imagine actually exist :D There was also a monkey with a huuuge nose that I've seen recently on some documentary xD

Looking great!!! I've loved dragons for a long time but I'm rather sad I haven't made the time to sit down and draw them. This is a beautiful collection!

Thank you! ^^ I'm sure you'll have fun if you do! Good time to start too, since you've recently joined Steemit :D

So many heads! it's too difficult to choose a favorite haha, I liked number 9, but also 31

Yeah that's the fun of it xD
Spociea(9)- A small dragon that lives in shrubs, usually roses. It's emerald green and can blend very well with the foliage. Eats flowers and berries.
Pezchen(31)- Has the most incredible sense of smell and it's very friendly. Especially loves balls or anything resembling a ball.

cool! they all have background story

I make them up along the way xD

Imagine what you could do! You could have a book full of dragons and their story... Like a dragon encyclopedia

That is one of the goals :D
However, I need to make a more consistent artstyle to fit together. And would need much more detailed story to make it interesting and not repetitive ^^

amazing work @kristyglas , i would love to see those dragons in 3d :-), you got my upvote

Thank you :D
I still have to learn 3d but I'm sure it would be fun to make ^^ Will try eventually

if you want to learn 3d, go for Zbrush, it is a fantastic software with a lot of free hand sculpting capabilities, i have been using it since forever and i am thinking to post some of my work here ;-)

Love these. So many awesome ones. I think I'd chose 28 as my fave. Saw it on Full force thursday!

Thank you :D
And as for your awesome recommendation:
Doot (29)- The shiniest metal dragon that loves metal music. And of course makes "doot!" sounds :D
Most positive dragon <3

So awesome!
