Harley's Dragons

I love dragons, and a couple of years ago i got this book called "Dragonology" which is a load of information on dragons by a victorian dude, who seemed to study them as if they were real creatures. It's an amzing book, and the illustrations are amazing, so I decided to try and copy them. I don't have a scanner so i had to take photos of my sketchbook. Sorry if they are blurry, next time I'll try and fiddle with the contrast or something. These are parts of a Chinese Lung, which is a type of dragon.

The first two drawings on a page:

Sorry the quality isn't too great, but how are they?

Wow these are good!

WHY CAN EVERYONE DRAW DRAGONS APART FROM ME?

*goes into a corner and gets out a big sketch pad and draws voodoo dolls of everyone who can draw dragons*

LOL the foot was funny....

funny??? lol thanks emz xox

I just can't draw living things altogether, well, i can draw people bodies, and their eyes, but not their faces. You did a great job Harlz

Really good. I liked the foot holding the egg. I draw dragons too but I don't have any pictures up yet. Wow!!!!

ok... you're saying "wow" about my dragons when you've got this mazin raisin one on your wall? post more dragons!!! pleeeeeeease i reeeally wanna see 'em, the wall dragon was great!

Thanks Harley, and I'll send more dragons in, when they're finshed.

These 5 are on the one page and together they took about an hour. Keep them crits comin!

Wow! I love the claws!!!!

You are sooo good!!

You're a great artist i loved all of them... it would be funny if you but the dragn in random order... you can make a dragon puzzle!!

thanks! i'm not good at them yet. that first one was my very first serious dragon. the others i did a few years back were just doodles, so i really appreciate any crits u have, and i'll take thm into account. i need 2 do some work on the heads, and wings, a little on tails, then body sketches. eventually i want to be able to form them myself without having books to show me how to shape things. Is there anything else i need to work on??

Wow! Those are really good! I thought the claws were really cool!!!

*grumbles* I'm obsessed with dragons, and I can't even draw them! I really love your drawings! I might try to draw something similar.. someday.. lol

Thanks crysi!! Dragons rule; your li'l cutie dragon was so sweet!!!! My new msn name is dragonsdivine and i love it sooooo much! That's a little sad, but oh well... I'm developing a dragon with a body (!) just now; she should be done soon.

Here's how she is so far:

She's my first ever with a body, so that's why she's got lots of outlines and stuff. She looks like she's wearing booties!! lol
