Guess what! You're my first crit since I've dissapeared from the site ^.~

I really like it! It's the attention to detail that really gets you. The dragon is drawn really well (some places look a little sloppy, but it adds a bit of style to it) and the scales must have taken a while to do them all.

However, it's the boat that draws in my eye. The perspective is done amazingly, from the sails to the curve of the ship itself. The lines of the wood that makes it, the tiny windows, and even the netting! It's very well done. Like I said, the attention to detail...AMAZING!

You're a big fan of detail, aren't ya?

I think I'm your new biggest fan; this is the third thing I've reviewed of yours today, and the fourth or fifth overall (I think... I'm bad at math). You pay so much attebtion to detail it seems as if it were real.

As someone else said, the boat catches your eye. It's just so... good and detailed! Even the angle just makes me swoon.

One thing I ask for... Can you please add some color? But not to the original... I like the original, but maybe copy it and color it in. It would make it seem more alive. That applies to all your drawings by the way. But you don't have to! I don't want to seem like your boss or something.

You're very gifted my friend. *star*

YOU ARE NEW AT DRAWING DRAGONS???????? :shock: :shock: :shock:
My goodnes! This was amazing. As was said before, THe boat really caught my eye.
The dragons scales were all very good, but the hands sort of bothered me. They seemed sort of flat. Maybe you could curve some of his fingers? I don't know, I couldn't draw as well as you if my life depended on it. The head was fantastic! THe fire was a little odd. It looked like it had spikes, but it made it interesting! :D
You drew very quickly in the youtube video. :wink:

This is AMAZING! I'm the worst drawer, so I can't even imagine how much time and precision this took! Bravo!

Wooooow... really intense drawing!

I like the fact that it looks like a mixture between realistic drawing and a more comic drawing at the same time. The ship is wonderfully drawn, the dragon has its awkward parts like most of the drawings, but above all I think it is a really wonderfull job!

A loooooot of lines and detail, love it. Really hard work!

Wow, this was really good. Okay first I am going to start with the criticism and then continue with the praise. First it looks as if you completely ran out of steam when it came to drawing the water. You did so well on the ship and dragon and then scribbled in the water. The sky and the clouds in the background show even more detail then the water and the water is in the front of the picture. Every time I go back to look at your picture that is really the only thing I see wrong. The details used to make your dragon and even the fire he is breathing looks wonderful. I also love the way you made his tale pop in and out of the water. The ship also has a great amount of detail in the sails, flags, and sides. Once again great job, I can tell that you must have just run out of steam when it came to the water.
