A water dragon perching on a rock before tucking in to his lunch and no it is not a dolphin -.-
The sail crested dragons of the tropical regions,spend most of their time lounging in the shallow warm waters, that surround mini islands. They tend to hunt by flying above the water and grabbng prey that comes near the surface. Not that won't dive after anything thats worth chasing. Their markings help reak up their form in the water, and some even look like mini shoals of fish, luring bigger fish towards them.

Ummm yes been working on and off this when the mood took me basically. Done in watercolours and colouring pencils. Tweaked a little in photoshop too. Heh and people wonder why i insane when i draw things with teeny ikkle scales....

MINE! do not steal.

wow, that dragon is really beautiful!!! Love its colours and scales (those must have been a pain to draw) and everything is just awesome! What kind of coloured pencils do you use?
Congrats with the Mods!!!

:-) Becky Camfield replies: "Thankies, scales weren’t too bad to draw, more of a pain to color though lol. I use derwent studio pencils mainly, though a few coloursoft ones too."

The scales are great, but what I really like are the fins. The red/maroon markings look almost like dried blood, they aren’t are they?

:-) Becky Camfield replies: "lol no, the purple is just markings/patterning on his scales. hehe only blood is from the hapless sea critter."
