Artist's Comments

It really has nothing to do with the book. It was the only title that seemed to fit. I guess it's the result of having recently finished the book, listening to a lot of My Chemical Romance and a craving for pen and ink. Mmmmm marker fumes :p

The scan cut off a lot on the right side and I cropped off some of the bottom because I thought it looked dumb. Oh and I flipped it after scanning because all my subjects seem to be facing to the left. Time to change things up.

I just keep getting messier and messier, don't I? Although I am semi-proud because I managed a sort-of-interesting pose. *tries to ignore huge, hideous anatomical flaws* *cringe*

Ummm despite all that .... enjoy? Heh ...

Haha true, I though he was angry until I saw the flies??? Now I'm confused ^-^"
Nice drawing ;)

So you aren't leaving us in the darkness after all?

Well, there isn't much to complain about the anatomical in the first place, but then again, I haven't study animals as much as you so I wouldn't know... But still, the head (and majority of the neck) is stunningly beautiful. And nah, you're not getting messier. Inking takes a heck lot of skill. We're all human, we all make mistakes. Besides, your inking skill is a lot (and when I say a lot, I mean A LOT) better than me at least! If you give me an inking pen, I'd smudge all over the paper REALLY BADLY and have extra lines all over the places. >.<

The "flies" (or whatever those little flying thing are) doesn't seem to fit in the picture well though. Your dragon (it looks like a dragon to me) seems to be trying to eat the flies... or that the flies are flying out of it's mouth?

Also, I have to question, what the heck is that "smoothly curved fang thingy" from the upper jaw? It looks as if someone pulled one of his fang out a bit, then hammered it till it is nicely curved!

How are you confused? It's a dragon that's angry. And he's roaring. The flies are there for an unknown purpose. Heh heh

And nope, I will try my very hardest to keep up with things here ;)

Lol, I really don't know what's with the flies. They were an afterthought.

Hey, I have to maintain my reputation as my own worst critic somehow, lol.

About the fang ... ummm it's more of a tusk? You know like warthogs have? Well it was my attempt at that anyways. Might have looked better from a different angle.
