big problem with dragons.help please

Thanks guys. These are very helpful!

They are all awesome! The great thing about dragons is no-one has seen one.... if you do a bad dragon and a child says so, just ask have they ever seen one?

LOL! That's true no one has ever seen a dragon (well, except a Kimono Dragon and that looks like a lizard)...

OK, here are my versions of Dragons (they're both quick and easy to do at parties & fairs):

Very nice!

I had a hard time figuring out dragons as well. This is what I put together so far. I like the designs with the dragons body in the middle and the wings on the eyes but I keep messing those up. Im never satisfied.

told ya shandi dragon is awesome!

Tanya: I like your dragon.....I'll incorporate the horns on top onto my dragon.

I came up with another dragon if you are interested...

Oh, he's cute!

Love the shading - and it's such a happy dragon!

Thanks!

I love it when people break it down like that... helps so much. Anna did a dragon when she first reviewed DFX that I use, but I've been wanting to work out a better "hard core" looking one.

Although, I did do this one from the Tattoo Sourcebook during a down hour on the 30th between clients, and I'm pretty proud of it.

OMG I love that purple dragon!!!

Jax, that is so cute!

I love that little one! So cute!

is it Spyro? looks like him - it's mega cute

My updated dragon:

Looks good bit scary... lol

I love the purple dragon - all those tiny little lines have me in awe. And I love your dragon mask Psalm. The colors and detail have me studying it in depth. You all definitely take it to a fine art!

I like it Psalm. It makes the eyes pop like they are really part of the dragon.

I've discovered if you wrinkle up your face(or have your model wrinkle their face) it makes wonderful lines to accent w/ black(I saw the Wolfe Bros do this). I guess vintage skin is helpful in this

Pixieface- I couldn't do the tiny lines last year... I discovered (here of all places ) it takes confidence in your line work to make better lines.

Jbax - you are right there. I find I do so much better when I am in a zone. When I sit down to do a new design in my practice sessions, and feel "the fear" of "can I do this?" I am always clumsy, no matter what brush I have in my hand. I have been practicing dragons so have really been watching this thread closely.

I love dragons...

there are so many ways, what ever it is add teeth and scales, and it is a dragon, this one did not even start out as a dragon.

I like! I Like!!!
