"The Firedrake" by Halley Orion Ross

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 16 out of 23 by Halley Orion Ross. ←Previous - Next→


	This is one of my older pictures. It was done in pastels which, unfortunately, I have misplaced, and that is why most of my pictures are done in colored pencil instead. In this picture, I was mostly experimenting with fire and light.

21 Aug 2002	Dave Bergner	Loading... This is good, the fire is awesome. You asked for more than just compliments ... [¥ he reminds everybody so they don't hate him ¥] Here it goes: If you add some fiery highlights to the cool looking rock formations, you can both build their presence and hint their texture. I like the dragon's shape, but, I might assume it is furry? Not really, I am greatly exaggerating the point ... Anyhoo, it could have a few hints of scales. The whole trick is again with highlights ... I was taught to leave out repetitive detail and leave some of it up to the viewers imagination, and I agree. So, a few scales here and there would work well.
