Description I was really chuffed at how the dragon pic came out in the Skyward Sword meme I did ([link] ) that I decided I wanted to expand on the scene and do it proper.

... I forget how much I suck at perspective until I try to draw the same thing from different angles. Hand, Y NO U MAKE EVERYTHING LOOK CUTE?

These are the dragons from Skyward Sword chibified. Heaps of edits and deets to add before colouring, but the basic blueprint is there. Thunder Dragon from Lanayru province on the left, middle Fire Dragon from Eldin, and the right is the Water Dragon from Faron. None of them have their crests or detailing yet so they're probably barely distinguishable.

Made an old-paper-ish background akin to the intro scene. Thinking of having them sitting on their respective parts of the Triforce, perhaps with the goddess in the style of the opening scene bestowing their part of song or something... I dunno if it will work.

The water dragon's face is bothering me quite a lot.

Moving to scraps after. Critiques welcome.

Yeah, they were a bit odd looking in the game. I was sorta hoping for something a bit more majestic and awesome looking. :/

Thanks for the compliment! ^.^

Well I've been meaning to do something like it for a while. It's just like my usual ball point abstract work, just on a much larger scale with more thought put into what the hell I'm actually doing, usually it's doodle all the way xD. My only issue is that when it is done the camera we have hear wont capture it well enough. Once it's done I'll be avoiding abstract and working on all the ideas for pieces I've been writing doing (granted a lot of them will only be awesome in my eyes lol, but there's some decent ideas ). Went off topic what I was saying was smaller pieces which I'll be able to use the scanner for.

What camera do you have? If the macro is semi-decent you could upload a collage of detail shots alongside the picture of the whole thing.

yeah that's not a bad idea, just wish it could look good as a whole. I think I just saw a photo of Spock and David Beckham making out... I learnt how the sew by the way :3

Hahahaha, holy shit, that was like the most disjointed jumble of opposing thoughts.

By sew do you mean needle work or more dressmaking?

maybe I will eventually if I end up designing something of my own, but for now I'm just being repetitive and what not and I can only building bikini sets really, I've only just begun learning swim suits, which are much more fun. You should check the website out tanithompson.com . Sorry for the late reply. We were browsing the dong section Lol...

And dude, that's not a late reply. A late reply is like... 7 years later.

well I mean we were replying pretty fast so it was like totally a conversation and then I took a lot longer than usual and yea! and yes I was sharing the penis gallery section of deviant art with my mother in-law and Sophie (wife). I'll be saying Sophie from now on 'wife' is too weird... So yes the dong section can be quite entertaining or traumatizing. Nonetheless Naked Santa eating water melon in a bath tub! wtfff

Haha, if it makes you feel better, I got sidetracked and forgot about the convo for a bit.

You can have that to yourself.

It looks very cute and beautiful. <3 I kind of can imagine it with them sitting on kind of...island-type areas of their respective homes. But it's your work, you make the background as you want to. I can't wait to see the finished product!

Always good to have options. :3 I'm picturing your idea and it could totally work. I think it will depend how much time I get to spend on it.
