*wants a tablet* From scratch eh? It looks awesome! Admittedly it must be a whole lot easier to work with a tablet rather that drawing, tracing, scanning, importing...etc...etc...Cleaning the image...Dullness. Still though.

The dragon looks nice and 3D here by well executed work on light, shading and the like...His colouring, though traditional green, looks to be a nice choice - he really stands out against the sky! This'd make a nice wallpaper! Oh, and I love his tail! Is it fluffy? Or just splayed? It looks a little like a torch...Great job Rhix! Have a cheeeeeese! ^.^

1 Rhiannon C. Piper 'Daggermaiden' replies: "oh it is so much easier than a mouse!!

and i might well have to make it my wallpaper! well im not sure if its fuffly or splayed, i think a fluffy dragon would be cute though!!!!!

OOO cheeeesssseeee!!! *munches*"

7 Rhiannon C. Piper 'Daggermaiden' replies: "thanks Jimbo!!!! sorry but why is it Soo controversial(i is still ill and not thinking to well so dont be too harsh), its a photo i took and a drawing i did put together, and there will be more!!"

I remember that piece...It was beautiful, I thought.

Not that yours isn't, Rhiannon.

=)

13 Rhiannon C. Piper 'Daggermaiden' replies: "tis ok!!


and the work in to taking a picture like this isent easy! though i nearly missed it... twas early one 'ummer morning about 3.30 and i couldnt sleep so i went to get a drink (down two flites of stairs) and as i came back up this wonderfull skyscape greeted me so i had to run down all the stares again (as quietly a possible, tis hard that is) grab the didital camera and rum back up again, open the squeeky window as quickly and quietly as poss and get a non fuzzy photo, so a right army manover it twas!! adn i didnt wake anyone up with the noise though my bro woke up to an unplessent breese after i left the window open *sniggers*"

Oh it's just that someone did something like this and ended up with a Mods Choice and she had lots of busy bodies flaming her with "omg you didn't in any effort! This doesn't deserve a Mods blah blah blah"

22 Rhiannon C. Piper 'Daggermaiden' replies: "acctually i dont remember that one, but you have a small point! but last time i checked photography was a form of art as well, so manipulating one or putting in another form of art is ever more artistic!!!

ha go me! you suck all you little flamers(no thats not you Jimbo) "

Ahhhh... tis beautiful! Nice work and I love the colours!

I'm sorry I would rave on more, but I'm really kind of dizzy at the moment. Ear infections you know.

12 Rhiannon C. Piper 'Daggermaiden' replies: "aww poor you! i cant tke too long at a screen when im ill either! im so pleased you like it!!! ^-^"

This dragon is wonderful Rhiannon, I like the way you used a photo background then drew your dragon on it.
