SciFi and Fantasy Art: Royal Crest

Hey well the horse is drawn reasonably well and I don't draw horses a huge amount myself so I can't really give you advice on the anatomy, the dragons face is a little hard to read make sure you make it clear where the eye is and add a few spikes to give it a more menacing look, and well sorry but the worst thing in the picture is the shield which at least half it looks like a danger sign, i would say stay clear of the very simplistic stripes as it makes it look more like an item of clothing and secondly choose colours that go nicely together and try more intricate designs, the blue and red aren't bad but maybe a more muted red tone with a blue border would work better, oh and the shield would probably look better with a sharp end.

Rebecca McManamon replies: "Yeah... I was just sort of getting an idea down, though I wasn't going for a perticularly menacing dragon... And I think I blurred it too much. But thanks for the ideas, I shall put them to good use!"
