I'm pleased with this one too. I'm really getting the hang of this shading thing.
The background was random again, I wanted to keep in with the idea of greek patterning. I'm going to look up some other types of patterns like celtic for the backgrounds on these I think.

Wow! First off, the colors for this simply blow me away! They caught my eye right away! I’d love to see what you can do with celtic knots!

He is simply a stunning little guy! What a wonderful species you’ve created here! I’d love to see more of them.

[hands over some cake and a random pineapple that just happened to be sitting there]

:-) Lara Laro Ryan replies: "Thank you! This was the second one I did (Meck being the first) and I didn’t think of a species name till I did Moss! I like experimenting with the backgrounds and I will do some celtic knots, they’re a nice challenge.

Thanks for the cake and pineapple!! *eats* ^_^"

Beautiful shading and colours! This is really original. I love the head and the tail most of all.

:-) Lara Laro Ryan replies: "Thank you! The tail is my fave part to colour and the head my fave part to draw."

:-) Lara Laro Ryan replies: "Heehee no they don’t bite. I think people can tame and ride them!"

This is a neat creature. I would love to have a tail like that, especially on cold days.

:-) Lara Laro Ryan replies: "Thank you! Yeah I guess the tail would be useful to keep a Dreikon warm on cold days!"

WONDERFUL!!! You are so amazing, I wish I could color like this. How did you do this? Nevermind don’t share your secrets lol lucky *grumbles and stares*

:-) Lara Laro Ryan replies: "Aww thank you! I learnt myself to colour this way. I’ve seen many people do it but no one will tell so its something you just have to do trial and error with really."
