Description (still inactive, I might be slow to reply to comments, but thanks to everyone who left a message concerning my last journal I love you guys <3 )


Wow I can't believe I managed to finish this in time

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Cynderheart the best llama in the world!!! 8)
I wanted to draw Draico because he's definitely the most beautiful water dragon I mean seriously look at him
It's my turn to fill 99% of my gallery with ur characters Tsh u hav been warned
I made his wings transparent except for the black marking on the outside part of his wings, I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be transparent like the rest of the wing but I played around a bit 8)

Thanks to this pic I got to meet up with an old friend: perspective :')


And underwater scenes are an absolute pain to draw c8 I redrew it 3 times and I don't know how many references I looked up and yet I'm still not completely pleased with it
But this tutorial saved my life:


ANYWAYS HOPE YOU LIKE IT CH <3 You're awesome and I'm so glad to count you as one of my best friends :) Our convos are always hilarious and never fail to make my day
But I still miss being your neighbor please come back soon so we can have the same timezones again

Hope you have a Merry Christmas 8)





Also if anyone dares steal/copy/trace this pic I will wish on a shooting star that this person gets all of their current and future art supplies stolen by a flock of wild ducks. Do this to gift art and I will hunt you down.

 Sorry for commenting on an old picture of yours but I just have to say how incredible this picture looks! Its certainly one of my favorite pictures done by you! I just can't stop staring at it! Its so glorious! I really love how you did the sunlight coming through the water! I also love the characters design! Its beautiful!
2015? Can't believe I haven't seen this image til now! Do you plan on doing any re-drawings of old pictures you've done to see how much you've improved? I think it'd be lovely to see you do re-draws! ^^

Roh, je l'avais oublié lui! Il faut vraiment que je refasse le tour des galleries de tout le monde, il y a tellement de perles qu'il ne faut pas laisser oublier au fond des placards

J'adore la forme des pattes palmées et surtout, celle des "nageailes". Un petit coté "raie manta", non? Sublime!

His wings remind me of a sting ray. I love how you drew this. The perspective is on-point and amazing. I love the water, too. It's perfect~

Cette image me refait penser à la dragonne Tsunami dans les romans "Le royaume de feu".
En même temps, un dragon aux pattes palmées nageant en pleine mer... J'aurais difficilement éviter d'en faire le rapprochement. XD

En tous les cas, superbe dessin, comme d'habitude ! Tu nous fait vraiment rêver et voyager avec tes oeuvres d'art, Fourth-Star ! =3

This was scarcely believable when I saw this, the perspective is just fantastic, and I love how you've given it a real underwater-y feel!

WATER YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO NICE YES

AND THE DRAGON LOOKS SO COOL

Okay, enough freaking out. I love blue colors and this one is so ... I always thought it would feel so peaceful slowly gliding underwater, stressless, as a dragon just enjoying life - you ever wonder what it sounds like there? The low ambience must be ... like the title says, serene.
