An exchange with Drahcir. He wanted his character (the mithril dragon) battling Metal Overlord from Sonic Heroes. Ever up for a challenge, I agreed. The result is a bit more demonic-looking than I'd intended. Maybe it's the moon combined with the glowing eyes and bat wings. It's been a while since I did a real dragon, and it's fun doing all those burly muscles.
Edit: I added some green to Mecha's neck, because it looked rather flat to me. I also darkened Drahcir's right wing so the left wing would look like it was catching the moonlight. I also dodged and burned a few spots. Yay.
That rocks out loud! It's just... woah! So shiney! And I swear the clouds were moving as I was looking at them. Go Drahcir! Kick his shiney, metal butt! This is totally awesome NR!
Your hand must be DEAD from the detail on this pic. x.x The teeth on both of those creatures are fantastic!! I love how uniform they are. And the spines on the tip of the drgon's tail really express its volume and movement so well! And not to mention the poses...
And you don't know how much your colouring is improving!! The finish on the dragon's wing is awesome~~~ and amazing job w the reflex lighting! AND THAT BG!! I LOVE the purple hues, they work so well!!
WOOT!!! A dragon! I love the textures you did and the details on the picture.
Can you give me a tip on how you did the grey shadings on the dragon, which look like clouds/scale likes? If you have time though.
This is simply amazing. I like the scenery and the action it has in it. Excellent job as always.
