You may have to turn up your monitor's brightness to see more detail.

I think this is the first piece that I've completely finished in a very long time. I really like how it turned out, too. Figuring out the fur was the hardest part and I wasted a lot of time by starting the fur from scratch after I didn't like how things were turning out.

The background, which I had been dreading (I suck at backgrounds :P ), turned out to be really easy. howler445 's tree and grass tutorial [link] made the trees easy to do. I also added some glowy things to balance the right side out a bit.

:iconsilver-falcon: unintentionally inspired the dragon's colour scheme XD

If you can guess how many layers total that I went through (I keep all my layers) I'll give you a cookie.

I must say this, as per DA's new 'copying/tracing-is-ok-as-long-as-the-artist-doesn't-say-no-on-every-single-deviation' policy.

nice! wish i had a dragon!!!!
Thanks :) And don't we all? XD
It's so pretty...faved! :D

I guess...25 layers?
It looks very nice. I love how the fur seems to glow and you're right the trees did come out very well. That's a pretty crazy pose and I love the little feet =D Hehehe

Hmmm maybe 10 layers?

Thanks! :D

Sadly you're wrong on the number of layers =/
Thank you :) I've never really made anything glow before... or do a decent tree, so that means a lot to me :glomp:

You have no idea how happy I would have been if it had only been 10 layers XD
It's so awesomely shiny. ^^
:D Thanks so much :3
No prob, you've done a fine job
