I have found that I'm having trouble drawing anything but 'cute' dragons. I used to be able to do regal at least. I plan to work on this in the near future. I also hope to eventually maybe if I can get it onto a new sheet of paper where I have room get this guy a body. I think its the most detailed dragon I've done. What do you think?

Awwwwwwww this is sweet... I so love the detail! And the cute eyes! It looks just like it could say "hug me!" every moment ^_^

Soooooooooooooooooooo cute!

1 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Thank you!"

This is really awesome!! You did a good job of giving him/her cuteness! ^^ I luv it! That looks like it took you a really long time to draw all the scales and stuff. That would be really awesome if you made it a body.

2 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Thanks a lot! The hardest part was trying to angle the scales and size them properly. I'd love to give this guy a body but it'd take more planning than I probably have 2 He got drawn in the bottom left corner of the page, now I'm stuck!"

My god...you ARE getting better! O_O lol
Wonderful dragonhead, why didn't i ever think of drawing that? ^-^ Love it, i simply love it, really do! (I'm getting jealous of you, really, I am! ^_~)

12 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Now thats a comment I always love to hear! I'm still alive, really! -_-;; Heh, yeah it only took me about 3 months to reply to this. Thanks so much for commenting!"

1...2....3... AWWWWWWWWW That is SOOO cute, I just wanna huggle him ^.^ Now theres two of you guys I wanna huggle to bits

18 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Heh, I must be stuck in a 'cute' rut or something. I'll have to draw something adoarably vicious to compensate! Thanks by the way!"

I LOVE the nose & ears, the scales and horns are totally awsome.Nice teeth. Even the eyes look real.

2 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Thanks for commenting, its good to know what kinda stuff I'm doing good on."

This guy is great! He has a real feel of bulk, like he is really solid. This is because of the care you took to render the scales,so they wrap around him.He has a very kind face ,for a dragon.

:-) Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Thank you, such an observant comment is really helpful for me. Appreciate the comment a lot."

KOOLNESSNESSNESSNESSNESS!!!!!!

Nice! I like the way you used a different type of scale on his neck. I also like how the scales on his nozzle fade to white which creates a nice dark and light contrast.

2 Ruth E. Steinback replies: "Thanks! I think this was one of my first really good practices at texturing things to get a bit more depth out of it."

Yup, definitely detailed. I do appreciate the effort to make it look textured like that. Very nicely done.
