could i please please please please use this as a background for a page on my school's literary magazine? We'll give you credit. It's for the background of a poem describing a dragon.

I love this drawing! I love how you colored it as if it just came out of the gloom. I also love the glow light on it. I was like "that looks like...yes! McFarlane!" McFarlane dragons are incredible. I have 8, 9, maybe ten. i lost count. i plan on getting more though. I just love them to death!

More awsome work from the great Kata. I know this is an older one but it needed a new comment too. You know I love the dragons!! I love the statues too!! He's totally cool!! That's a pic that would look good in poster size over the bed. Ever thought about naming him?

rogue-rpz [2006-08-21 14:20:16 +0000 UTC]

wow nice work
love the greens and the lighting

my only critisism would be the horizontal green glow in the foreground. i can see what your trying to do by making it look like murky water but i dont think you quite got it and i dont know how exactly to make it look better.
but the feeling im getting is that it would look better without it.

Woah! Very awesome, Kata! the coloring is beautiful great job on the highlighting. I love how the rest o' his body disappears off into the darkness like that, and how the water looks all dirty. great job!

While I like McFarlane's work, I'm an old fashioned proponent of the TSR Dragonlance variety. Elmore and those guys just snagged my attention in a way that McFarlane doesn't. That being said, I like this fellow you've presented here. The color is very rich and the body styling is pretty nice. I'll give it a "well done".

O DEAR MOTHER OF HOLY DUCKS.
That's amazing looking, utterly amazing. I am LOVING the details and colors. You need to add watermarks or at least a signature to this, or it'll get stolen. @_@ it's so good...

Khabok [2006-04-02 19:15:53 +0000 UTC]

Sweet! I love the fin stubbies! The highlights are aboslutely perfect for that wrinkly look! Now, it's only a suspiscion but... did you do the whole dragon at 75% opacity? Because it all looks very strong without a lot of stray edges.

gah! I've been faving too many dragons! *removes other dragons from his favs to make room*
