This guy is awsome. I luv his position and expression. Your style is very cool and i cant wait to see more!
20 May 2001:-) Sebastian Alexander Meusel
*LOL* He looks like he´s gonna have a screaming fit from all those pesky Adventurers that always try to steal his hoard and always leave such a heavy feeling in his stomach... *LOL* He´s great. Although his Wings are a bit too small, so if he realy pounces, he´ll probably well... kinda like pounce the Ennemy to death... ;o))

Hahahah! I love his expression! It looks like a cartoon dragon because of the small wings but I like it anyway! The rock came out really cool!

I like the devious expression and the fact that he's a rather classic dragon. The rock with its narrow spot in the middle makes the scene seem a little precarious.

Cool, sketch! I want to see the finished projects. I hope they are done soon. Great use of space and the look on the dragons face is priceless.

I LOVE THIS DRAGON!!!! He is the best dragon I have ever seen. (and I have seen a LOT!) Love your drawing.

I'm a big fan of dragons so it is a pleasure to see one of yours here. I look forward to seeing it completed because the preliminary sketch looks great!

Can I ask you something? Do you do one preliminary sketch and one finished product? Or do you go through many prelim sketches before you decide which one you want?

:-) David House replies: "it all depends, most often i do a rough sketch to get the pose and layout and then a preliminary. I've been doing mostly digital finished work so i will then scan the preliminary, sometimes if i like the feel and layout of the sketch i go right from sketch to finish. I use prelims mostly to workout details (costuming, textures, background detail and the like). In the case of "pounce" it was a rare first try. "

Wow, this is great! The angle or perspective, as though you're looking up at him, I love it. And well, of course, his expression, as everyone else commented on, is fantastic. Well I hope you update soon, as I'll definately be back to check it out!
