Description
A rawr sketchiness from me
:3 As some of you know, I freaking adore dragons, let alone drawing them. So while I am finishing other stuff I decided to share these guys & girlies
Some of these are even ideas for fan art (though for the time being I am not saying from which (you are of course welcome to guess lol): you'll see )Most dragons here are recent, not even a year old, except for the big serpent fellow in the right (4 years old) and the small serpent profile in the bottom (2 years old).
I hope you enjoy it!
Sketched mainly with a ballpoint pen. Quick Retouching in Corel PhotoPaint x 4

Oh, my gosh! You actually mean it??? Well, let me put up at least some decent humans, before I put these in the improval meme. That way my ego will be safe and sound

That's so very awesome, I love how you did the scales on some of them. The sketch lines are clear and lovely, lol such beautiful details <3 with that texture it looks like you have been going out, study and sketch out any dragons you see for a long time <3

As always, there's just something to magical and almost real about your linework... lovely thin lines and so much friggin' detail <3 The fact that you put it on old looking paper makes it seem like its out of an old mythical book or something and the effect as a whole is really very pretty to look at <3

Thank you! 
Well, I try.
As for the paper, I couldn't bear psychologically revealing sketches most of the time (Perfectionist's nature. urgh lol), because of their well sketchiness and incompleteness. Putting them on a nice paper and giving them such a basic finishing touch at least makes them ok for showcasing lol I also guess I take inspiration from the Dragonology series. Lovely series and drawing
Thank you for such a wonderful compliment. I and the draggies appreciate it really much.
Well, give a hug for the compliment, will you darlings?
*Draggies run to give a group hug* lol XD!
P.S. BTW, did you get a chance to read Temeraire? I can send you the pdf of the first book to try if you want me too

LOL You're welcome! 
I sympahize with you, the chances of my actually finishing a drawing is slim lol but I don't draw dragons... I should totally try sometime though hahah but dragons are just the sort of subjects that would look good on the old paper anyway. 
Yeah, I have the Temeraire PDF but I haven't had a chance to read it yet unfortunately, because I really want to lol
