I may not know much about marker sketching and the amount of detail you can do to a picture...but for the dragon i would love to see his wing that lines his back with more detail. But anyway loved the sketch

I like them as well, but the one crit I have is about the dragon, it has too little contrast, making it look flat. Also, I agree with DOUGY, the wings look a bit unfinished.

However, the others are great! :D

well, thanks A LOT for comments...

the highlights are made mostly by white pencil and gouache. i sometimes use gel-pens but with gouache you can have the desired effect more precisely(though it is harder to apply...)

i must give feng zhu (http://www.artbyfeng.com) due credit. his tutorials helped a lot...

i've made some changes on the dragon(according to critiques)
and drew some more. i'm going to post them as soon as possible(i don't have a personal scanner, acquiring one can take time:D )

thx again...

http://img17.photobucket.com/albums/v50/sandrue/emperor.jpg

these are done for an assignment of a iluustration course i take at school. the concept was up to us(every thing is free, technique, concept, etc.) and i decided to draw sth. about my rpg campaign. these are the war beasts of the "Kriadorian Imperial Army" and the emperor... (the whole drawing was much bigger than scanner i was using)

here is the dragon drawing edited. i've added a bit more contrast, but couldn't draw the wing in much detail, it was on the edge of the paper...

y fav is the last one on the first post, it looks a lot like a sph't from Marathon. God I love that game... I really like your shading & coloring technique, it has a lot of contrast and vividness. Keep up the original work!
