New Ink Drawing - Red Dragon

4 days ago

Going through my previous entries into the Splinterlands Art Contest and my posts, i noticed that the mystic creatures i drew lately were mostly illustrated by human portraitures and gestures. Upon reflection i decided that this time i will change the narrative. The plan was to do this and still maintain the area of creativity. I decided not to copy a card first hand but to instead illustrate it in another way.
The obvious choice to me was the Dragon but i had to pick one. I saw the Desert Dragon, the Red Dragon and many more. All these made me appreciate the vastness of the Splinter world. I chose the Red Dragon in this case because of its simplicity and extra horns on its chin and jaws.
Even though the result is beautiful, the process was rigorous and i had to make precise measurements. My concentration level on this particular drawing was top-notch and i would very much value your feedback. The hatching technique is not something that's easy to use but i'm glad that day by day i am coming to master it.
