This is one heafty male dragon, you really wouldn't wanna get in his way. His name Arraan and is young for his species, they can live thousands of years and this guy is but 324! I used mechanical Pencil and it took ages!!! Unfortunately it didn't scan so briliantly.

I love your detail, and color pencil work. I'm not so lucky to be as good with colored pencil. I'm also very impressed with your boarder, i find that, that adds so much to a picture. Once again Great work, and keep it up.

I think you must have found the Amy Brown site.

:-) Katherine Tuck replies: "...bleh..."

Yes it does hav an Amy Brownish look but that's just because of the scales in his head and his *o so beautiful* wing. I think that this is quite different from what she does because she usually uses computer colors and not pencil ones *which are very difficult to use correctly and manage to obtain this result* and never puts such a celtic feeling into it. I must say that I'm a big fan of her art but this dragon is just great. It has a very special style that I love.
Great job Katherine!! It must have been very hard to colour it all but let me assure you that it's worth it *drools* oh yes it is. ^-^

:-) Katherine Tuck replies: "...it took me about a day to colour...alot of them take longer than that...your right though...its worth it...great sense of acheivement...would you like to name this cute lad too?..."

O really? Can I give him a name! Coooooooooooool *giggles* I love that!!
What about 'Erensuge'? well it means mountain dragon in vasque *coz I'm from the vasque-country*. Well it's from vasque mithology. I must admit that it's not a very original name. X)

:-) Katherine Tuck replies: "...then he is called Erensuge...i like it...you can name all of my dragons from now on if you like..."

i like the shading; i wish i could draw scales to my dragons like that. And the border is great. keep drawing dragons, i like the way u draw them! ( especially the wings )

:-) Katherine Tuck replies: "...the scales are easy...look carefully and you'll figure it out...i won't tell you because that would make it to simple for you...anyone can do it..."
