Artist's Comments

PLEASE FULL VIEW!

The scanned killed this one worse than any of my previous art works. It makes me want to cry. >_< Mostly it messed up the dark blue color of the stomach. It was such a pretty, bright blue and now it's kinda grayish..... And it TOTALLY destroyed the beautiful eyes! *sniffle* They were a brighter, lighter color with two different darker colors of blue.

Anyways, I had nothing in mind when I made this dragon. I just kept drawing. The flecks on the body and background are on purpose, though now I wish I had only done the body.....

Yeah also I stink at backgrounds and I kinda forgot to make sure the strips of color were divisible by 8.

The name is pronounced: ar-tee-see-uh

I like the fleck~

Yeah, I hate it when scanners do that </3
You can try playing around with scanner settings or in a photo image editor to make things look a bit better.

Thanks. :D

*nods* Scanners kill everything.... I have messed around a bit before with other pictures, but I didn't really do much with this one. Too lazy. XD I'll probably go back later and try and get a better scan of it. Or I could try taking a picture with a digital camera.

Yeah, it's very hard to make it look as good as the original. That's why if you read my artist's comments you'll see me complaining about my scanner all the time XD;

Not bad...The colors fit the persona of the dragon very well.

Thanks. Color schemes were what I was best at when I took private art lessons.

Yeah the color just matches that dragon perfectly...might have to hit you up with some ideas for some of mine for the book I'm working on... *curses the DA emoticons because they never show up in my posts*

Sure. ^^ I like helping people in anyway I can so if you ever want any help with art or writing or anything at all, let me know. Although, I don't see how I could be of much help in much of anything. xD But then again, that's my perspective on things. I'm not appreciative enough of my talents. (And art is so not one of them. >.> Even if it was when I was little.)
