My first dragon drawing

in art •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hello steemit people!!

Today I drew dragon for the first time, not sure should I be happy with the result or no. Seems like he came out like a good dragon of sorts. It was a challenge i made for myself to see if I can pull it off. All was done digitally, both illustration and colors.

Below are the steps of the process with a short description:

Here we have just plain lines for the setup

These are polished lines with a few details added

I added gray to fill the lines in, ready for shadowing etc

Added plain colors here

A bit of textures added here

And the finished product with light arranged and shadows.

Have an awesome day!!!!

Thank you! Glad to hear that, will do :)

Well done! I like your illustration very much. Thanks for showing us the whole work process. How did you draw, with the mouse or with a pen pad (I don't even know the name for it)?

Thanks! I draw with some cheap mini drawing pad. That was used for this, and sometimes I draw by hand then scan it so colors can be done digitally.

Thanks @theartofrez. Have a nice day, steem on!

Super Clean.

Good work on the lineart then colouring in. Very nice. I love the angular jagged lines. Keep them coming!

Thank you! It came out like that, I wanted to do a sketch first but lines went softly yesterday, so I skipped sketching :D

Damn fine first lines, I must say.

Thank you!

Beautiful work! I hope you make more dragons in the future! :D
Also your line control is really amazing :)

Thanks! Definitely, there will be more dragons, this was my first one and I found it really inspiring to draw them. So many options and good freedom with creativity :D
