My friend at school wanted me to draw a chinese dragon (long) for her so I said 'Okay,' and thought 'I'm gonna go draw the best damn long I've ever drawn!' And, I did! I was so proud of myself! So I scanned it in, and here he is! Doesn't he look all nice and cozy on his cloud? The Character in the top=right corner is the old chinese symbol for 'Long' (Dragon)

This is sooooo cute. You have got to do more like it. You really should have more art in your gallery because your art is really good.

Oh wow!!! I could never daw anything like that!!! I like the little bush at the end of it's tail. And it's eyes are saying, "I'm so innocent!!!"Thank you!! You really think I have that much expression in the eyes? Most people don't comment on my eyes... Thanks again!!

Very cute! And the way it's sitting and the expression on it's face remind me of my neighbors dog.Whenever the dog gets into trouble she acts like she doesn't do anything wrong. I love it!

Awww, he's so very sweet! You really have so much talent, and I agree with Charlie Daniel: The eyes are gorgeous! I'd be really interested to see a coloured version if you ever decided to do one!

Well, it's very "cute" and all. Since I am Chinese I have knowledge to some extent of how to dragon is supposed to look, I'm not here to criticise, the drawing is quite good for a non-professional artist, and that of no knowledge of Chinese culture. The body is good, the eyes are a bit innocent, but people like that I guess, mkae it less like a dog just sitting there and more like a dragon. 1 Good job in all though.

:-) Sandy 'Hawk Fangor' Moose replies: "Hawk: I did this one a while ago... I think my more resent dragons are a better tribute to cultural chinese dragons while still maintaining my style... Although, trying to combine the talons of an eagle, the head of a camel, the antlers of a deer, the eyes of a carp the mane of a lion and the body of a snake is a little hard to do gracefully ^^; Atleast without taking a few artistic liberties.Plus this was a commision for someone and this is how she wanted him to look *shrugs*"

Well.. i like it. I also like how tht puff of cloud goes around his tail. He is quite cute indeed. It looks like you spent a long time with that detail and all... well, its all rather lovely.

If your interestead in other chinese symbols you can e-mail and i could send you a few.

Well, it's a cute picture, but the dragon is an Asian 'Lung,' not 'Long.' Unless you're from a different spot, then it might be 'Long.'

Anyhow, it's a really coll, cute picture. I like it's pose. 1

:-) Sandy 'Hawk Fangor' Moose replies: "Actually, from what I understand, Chinese is silly. It's romanized as "Long" but "Long" is pronounced "Lung"... It gets me confused sometimes and I pronounce it "Long" but, as far as I know, the correct romanization is still "Long"... I dunno... I'd have to ask someone who is proficient in Chinese romanization. "
