Artist's Comments

I was waiting for a bus in an icy wind yesterday when I got an idea to draw a dragon in a cold, snowy place. Then I noticed that poor thing would freeze with its reptile skin so I decided to make it furry. The pose is inspired by cats: they sometimes seem to look at their tail like thinking “what the hell is that… ?” without realizing that it belongs to their own body! :XD:

This is the first complete picture ever where I used layers! There are six of them in this. I’m just practising how to use them but they already make drawing so much faster because you don’t have to fix the borderlines between figure and background. :D

Time: 5-6 hours
Tools: Gimp 2.2 and pen tablet

Vai että karvainen lohikäärme... mahtava kuva! Erityisesti häntä ja kasvot ovat onnistuneet! Näyttää miltei halattavalta tuo pörröisine turkkeineen... Ellei mokoman kynnet ja torahampaat olisi noin kunnioitusta herättävät :P

Kiitoksia! :dance:

Voisivathan suomutkin tietenkin olla hyviä lämmöneristäjiä, mutta ajattelin turkin kuitenkin olevan mukavampi arktisissa oloissa asustavalle otukselle. :D

Woah! A fluffy dragon : D He (she?) looks so friendly. Reminds me of the dragon from the old film "the never ending story".

The eye, the puffy tail, and the wing tip furry parts are my favourites.

The large horns have a good perspective, but the front horn on the nose is a bit fat for my eyes : )
:iconagaave:
Haha, thanks! Nice that you like this hairy creature! Not sure if it's he or she, let's make it he this time! :D

Now that you mentioned, the horn on the nose could be a bit thinner... It's good to have some critique because I didn't even think that horn before. I guess people (or atleast me) become blind to their own drawings if they stare at it too long. :O
