Artist's Comments

This drawing has been completed with the help of Tony Orzech ( [link] ) wich I thank for the great amount of time he invested in helping me with the shading and texturing and Kylee Nell ( [link] ) wich I thank for her asistance with the anatomy... Thanks guys... I never could have done without you...

As for the story... Jon ( the elf ) just finished some really tough survival exercices as he is in training for admition in the elven guild of the riders... and Draghi ( the dragon ) just returned from a sucesfull but exhausting hunt...

So they bolth seattle down for a little rest... that's all there is to it...

Heck... I would like a pillow like that...

Oh my God, this is gorgeous! I am so happy you finished it and it was well worth the effort and the wait! I am so proud of your progress.

And just a little crit (because I know you love it), the leafy textures on the ground are exactly the same as it leads off towards the bushes, and the perspective is interferred with because they dont really recede into the background. A change in leaf size (eg, the leaves getting smaller as they go further away) might have helped. And maybe a little more interaction between the leaves and the dragon, or even a break in the pattern to show the ground beneath.

But don't let the crit detract away from the overall beauty of the pic. Your lighting and shading skills have really grown in this pic, and I would call this "experiment" a great success. And I see you managed to take care of that wing!

Well, I should email you sometime to chat and update you on my progress!

yes... defenetly email... it's been a long time since I heard news from you... I am quite courious to see how you are doing...

As for the crit... the leaves actually do get smaller as they recede in the background... I was carefull to implement that... but I guess the differance is not really noticable... oh well...

I have Tony to thank for the shading and lighting... as he has helped me with it every step of the way...

Very beautiful!! The picture looks so peaceful and soothing!! I love the way the dragon curled itself up to allow the body to rest on its belly! Very well drawn and sketched! Definitely a Fav!!
