Black Dragon

Dark, violent and oozing with malevolence.
I suggest drawing on your own "dark side" to help add some personal characteristics to yuor dragon.

Just a quick note:
these do not need to be "polished" paintings, you can even do a concept peice. but try and shoot for something portfolio worthy. 8-)

Some Inspiration

Now Drop it like it's hot :01:

Well, I was going good. Had an idea all fleshed (scribbled) out. But the Photoshop decided it didnt like saving. Although there 4 GB of dedicated RAM to Photoshop, I got the "Photoshop cant save because there isnt enough RAM" Error >_>

Sept 2 hours trying to find another way to save it before photoshop downright crashed :13:

=\

I would have went to to image>image size and decreased the size, or went to preferences and decreased the undo catch. All of those would have decreased RAM use. Oh and don't do save for web unless you are under 3000x3000 because it gets a bit bitchy.

I started this with 2 doodles:

Then I worked more on one and I ended with that, which is a very big piece of crap in my opinon, so I'm going to revert back to the b&w and rework from there.

For the record, I think I wanted to go into colors too early, not having set everything up.

Meteor: I think you've underrated the quality of your work. That piece is pretty awesome, all you really need to to pop the dragon from the rocks a little bit and maybe add a foreground element. Awesome stuff man!
