Dragons, Pixels, and Random Nonsense.

Post by LupisDarkmoon »

I draw. Not amazingly, but it helps pass the time, and sometimes I even draw something I like. Whoever said that "You are your greatest critic" was correct!

I usually end up drawing something within three catagories - Pixel art, flat color shading, and realistic shading. I'm still not very good at that last one, though.

Lets start with flat color shading.

Image

My most recent drawing, finished today. Took several hours and has five colors + black. I really like how it turned out. Sunflower dragon. :-)

Image

A random Phoenix - my first try at flat color shading.

Image

Gasp! Pixel art! Kassadin the Void Walker, a League of Legends character. I rarely play, but I like some of the characters. Which leads me to…

Image

Brand, the Burning Vengeance. Fun stuff!

Image

And a puppy! My puppy, specifically. This somehow earned me a Daily Deviation on Deviantart, which I still don't think I deserved.

Image

A random emblem because… it seemed like it would be fun, I guess. Woo!

Image

Suggested by a friend of mine, a raven bringing on the night.

Note - the background gradient of both the Emblem and the raven were not done by hand. I'm far too lazy for that. x.x

There will most likely be more when I get more free time. For now, I get to study Spanish vocab! Woo! -.-

Wow, I must say, this is really good
I love the poses.. well, the first one looks a little like it's neck would be broken, but still kinda funny

And the Raven.. locks so detailed oo must have taken ages to do this one. I'm really fascinated!

Thanks, guys. :t-blush: I really appreciate it. :-)

I might start taking commissions at some point, if people are interested! Probably Lineart, Lineart-flat shading (Sunflower dragon would be an example), and pixel art.

I love it, the puppy too <3 So adorable! I know that phrase all to well, however I change it to "You are your own worse critic." A lot of my drawings end up in the "okay" pile and my husband has threatened to upload them with out telling me.

I like your pixels, they look great!

Most of my pixel art is done in 100x100 pixels, as I make them for a World of Warcraft forum. I just liked this one enough to share.
(And this one.)
Image

Both are creatures from World of Warcraft, because… I'm a Warcrack addict. :sweat:
