Great pose for the dragon, especially. Dynamic!

[Dakardaur]

indeed the dragon's pose is pretty cool...tho i think the wings could been in a different pose...

[Snowfly]

the wings..ugh. yeah i know. afterthought. thanks for the crits

[behemot5]

good works...good ideas...

[littlemac]

you a big fine dragon wont you back that ass up.
i love both of these. i am a big fan of pencil sketches, but man i really want to see that crab colored. i'm going to look for more of your stuff now.

[Forge]

eh really good work!!! any ref ??
will u made of this mother crab your avatar man ??:D

[sabe2003]

I really like your work...looks as if your in animation are u?
also, do you go to art school.. if so where. your skills are very detailed and confident!!!
and might I add that your picture is oh so sexy....drool*

[cucaracha]

Cool renderings, nice contrast.

Only a little thing - the dragon's mouth reminds me a bit of a duck's... Hard to describe, maybe it doesn't look dangerous enough.

and might I add that your picture is oh so sexy ... uhm who is it? :D

geez as the others have said, very dynamic, especially the dragon. i love your rendering style. im just sending you my praises, everyone else has already said whats in my head!
:D

Cool! I liked the other sketches aswell. The crab thing seems a bit off here and there. The foremost leg should be more vertical from that angle I think. When attaching feet to the ground it helps to do a simple box or square in perspective and then align the feet to it.

Nice dragon..
May I take her for walk......

:chug:

[Snowfly]

thanks guys

forge: er, no refs. eek

sabe: no, not in animation or art school. i'm an advertising major, and i taught myself to draw.

cucaracha: yeah, that. guess i faltered a bit there, still a little tentative with dark pencils. guess i need to go easy on the rendering and hammer out the forms next time. thanks for pointing it out ;)

prometheus: thanks for the tip, mechanical's really not my strength. but missing something as basic as the leg..ugh. the perspective thing, that's a really useful technique. picked it up from kchen's notes actually, but i let my concentration slip on this one. really appreciate the help.

bluepencilartist: ok!

[Rusty]

youve got one of the most coolest drawing styles ive seen around in these forums..very well placed shading.

Add me to your long line of fans,awesome man,keep posting

Seriously, that dragon is badass. The crab lady looks like it might topple over but is rendered very nicely. Awesome.

[yeticatcher]

Really nice renderings and nice design work I must say!

[Calibretto]

I actually like how the dragon's mouth is like a duck's. It makes it unique from most common dragon designs. You should leave the mouth like it is, drop the wings, and give it webbed feet. It could be the world's first duck-dragon. Then we could make little maps that say "Here there be Duck-Dragons," or rewrite the story of the ugly duckling and have him devour all the other mean ducks in the end; and the swans too for good measure. The posibilities are surely endless.

Hey Snowfly,

Those are really cool, i like the pose and the hind legs of the dragon a lot!

Very nice shading!
