I love how this turned out almost bird-like. It was just a shading/dragon study done in ballpoint pen. It took about 4 hours total.

good dragon, indeed captures bird like features, I like his(or Her) combination of bumps and scales, kinda reminds me of the Gila Monsters we have here, or the Beaded Lizard, they both have bumps instead of scales.

:-) Katie VerKuilen replies: "thanks! Yeah I sort of winged it with the scales. I didn’t use any references and didn’t even pre-draw it in pencil, so this is how it ended up. "
