SciFi and Fantasy Art: Dragons of Elements, Air and Earth

This is part of a four-set stationery project for Ellen Million Graphics. The concept is old: elemental dragons. I didn't intend to make them look like wise dragons, or nice, just plain evil, old-fashioned dragons of elemental nature.

1 Dec 2003	Louise Lindgren	Loading... Raw and rough... Just like dragons should be. Great design, on all of them...
10 Dec 2003	Hobbit	Loading... No HUMAN could do this!!!!!!!!!
19 Dec 2003	Anonymous	Loading... I like the way that you show contrast between the two types. Also, the way you showed that the dragons don't really have to look exactly like their elements was cool too!! GREAT WORK!! =)
25 Mar 2004	Katie	Loading... Except for the wings, the dragons seem opposite from what they should be. The air dragons are stocky and the earth dragons are thin and look like they'd get through the air a bit easier. Nicely drawn.
15 Apr 2004	Amy	Loading... The detail is fantastic, but it could use some color.
16 Aug 2004	Ron AmoriM	Loading... I like them. Each is very distinct.
6 Nov 2004	Rafael 'Coconut' Gonzalez	Loading... I really like the skull like carapace upon the above two dragon designs. Though my most favorite design is the nasty looking Earth Dragon just about its title. Would you happen to have any color versions laying about?
8 Jan 2006	Friend	Loading... GRRRR! (mutters to self to stay calm and grits teeth.) Okay, I'll tell you the truth. Not bad scetches, but to be honest.I HATE PEOLPE WHO THINK DRAGONS ARE EVIL!!! I KNOW THEY'RE NOT THE NICEST CREATURES BUT COME ON!!! Oh, I'm sorry I blew up like that. I like dragons. JF Trudel replies: "Please, learn to spell before coming here to either troll or honestly insult me. Your conception of dragons may have been altered by modern fantasy or asian myths and legends, but my inspiration for dragons are from european lore. The dragon from medieval texts is a representation of the devil. The great snake Jormungandr wanted to eat the world. Fafnir was a hoard-mongering, greedy, evil bastard. The dragon was also the final and lethal opponent of Beowulf. While you're at it, you might complain at Tolkien, his dragons were all evil."
