In my opinion, to attempt a dragon is the pinnacle of achievement that an adventurer can attempt. It is a daunting task at the best of times. Trying not to sound too full of myself, to attempt drawing a dragon is just as daunting a task. This one is modeled after a small (about two inches high) metal figurine, with some modifications made from pictures of Dragons I've found. As per usual, it is done using graphite pencil on computer paper, and also, as per usual, I would love to hear any feedback you all may have. Enjoy! ** UPDATE ** Worked on increasing the wingspan. Though, probably I should focus on making my foreshortening more appreciably noticeable. The wings aren't really small, just the perspective at which the picture is drawn makes them appear that way.

Oh, my, god.

It's a dragon. Like, a dragon. Like, not an *attempt* at a dragon. A dragon.
