I had loads of fun doing this. I'm quite pleased with her self-assured pose and expression, and I think I did okay-ish with the metal look, too.
Chro and Me are the reckless middle children of 'the dragon and the rider' -family.
Marker and coloured pencils, August 2002.

Great job on the metal finish - I like the reflections of the figure in on the dragon. Speaking of which, another great looking dragon *scowls with jealousy* and she's cool looking too - I love the shape of her head and all those ridges.

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "*BLUSH* Thank you!!! It means a lot that you say so. I like this one myself fairly much. And actually those reflections.. *giggles* ...I was snickering by myself while drawing them. They sort of seemed so funny... : )"

Well I'll be damned.. ..why didn't you tell me you've updated.. =) ..this is just GREAT! Reminds me of those Julie Bell's chrome works.. ..nice details, nice posture, nice reflections.. ..great, I say! Keep these coming, my dear friend!

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "I didn't tell you!? Darn it... I could have sworn that I sent an e-mail... *anteeksipyytävä koiranpentukatse*
SO glad that you like it. *all smiles*"

Very good job. You have such creative dragons! And I like her tush! LOL. You did do good on the metalness. ;-)

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "*LOL* I actually took a good time 'designing' her butt. *GRIN* So I'm really glad you like it. ; D"

WOW... *catches his falling jaw* That's Super-Mega-Ultra-Great, Katja!!! Tell me, have you used something as a model of metallic light reflection, or you just 'know' how to draw it in any shape? First, "Guardian Angel", then this... I just don't know what to say! Wonderful!

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "*blushes* Thank you, sugar. Nope, no model. Just my imagination. And my eraser. *grin* This was done in the just-do-it -technique. ; D"

Nice. You know, there is a tutorial about "how to get metallic look" or somehting like that here at elfwood. I thought maybe you would be interested. I have the persons name somewhere... just a sec. Keith Trimm, yes that was his name. Anyways, nice pic.

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "Oh, nice to know. Have to check it out... : ) And thanks for the comment."

Okay-ish? No no, the metallic look is far better than just okay. Nice usage of color; the background's bright yellow was a good choice!

:-) Katja Alakotila replies: "*BLUSH* Thank you. I've been trying to work on the chrome-look. And this piece was really fun to do. It made me feel... well... *blushes some more* ...sexy... *grin*
But thank you, thank you very much! I was a bit worried about the yellow, but gladly at least someone thinks it works. : )"

Yea... hey... you did got that metalic "feal" to it... really nice... but... amn... joust one question... what is the green stuff on the dragon's forhead???


Anyways... all in all... It's a wanderfull pic... congrats on it!!!


P.S. Is she an orc???

11 Katja Alakotila replies: "Thank ya!
The green stuff on the dragon are scales. Either they're the remains of his old scale skin after a metamorphosis of some sort, or then the dragon's a hybrid of a metallic and a green-scaled drgon. You pic. : )
Well, orc wasn't really on my mind when I drew the chic... I have no idea of what she is... A Martian? : D"
