Ok, I think your art is a bit.. How would I say it?.. Bland. It's only decent.
Trust me, you have the skills to make fantastic artwork, but you need to remember couple of things..

1. Use matching colours, or focus the whole pic on two major, and one minor color that you want to use. This is the problem with most of the fandragons I've seen in my life.
1-4 colors per dragon is good, but the 5-8 different colors per one dragon that the average fan-artists use, just makes their creation look like a gay clown on drugs.. Using natural colors may also help in this..

2. What I also noticed, is that the colors you use are a bit too light. Try using markers, and never be afraid to highlight the parts of the pic that you want to show off..
Blending lighter and darker shades of the same color always looks great too..

3. Anatomy, anatomy, anatomy.. First of all, you should learn all the basic stuff. How long are limbs supposed to be?, how slim can a creature be without looking weird?, how big the head is supposed to be when compared to the rest of the body?, where should the eyes be placed in the face? etc..
Later, you can start trying out harder things, like the position of muscles and such..
In this, I recommend trying to draw without an eraser, you'll learn not to make mistakes..

4. Perspective. You know what it means, do you?.. From what I've seen, all your pics have been portayed from the side. You should try out new things, practise always helps, even if you wouldn't succeed..

Follow these here, and you will do great! smilie

I would normally, but I really don't want to draw a fancharacter, that is simply just a copy of Cynder or Spyro..

I would gladly make you a request if you can come up with an original fancharacter. I could even help you design her/him, what do you say?..
Mia the dragon Blue Sparx Gems: 930
#110 Posted: 17:42:29 16/07/2010
yeah sure but can u help me design her

Of cource! You just give me a few basic ideas on what do you want her to look like, and I'll do the rest.

After I've shown you what I came up with, you can tell me if you like it or not. How about that?..

You don't have to know what you want her to look like.
Just describe her by a few words, and tell me something you'd want to have in your fancharacter.

Well, that helps a bit..

Allright, how about you tell me three things.

1. What color do you want your fancharacter to be?.. (Tell me three colors, and I'll focus the pic on them)

2. Do you want your fancharacter look like a normal dragon, or do you want her to look special?..

3. Do you want any accessories on your fancharacter?.. (if you do, what kind of accessories?)
Mia the dragon Blue Sparx Gems: 930
#119 Posted: 20:04:48 16/07/2010
what do you mean special or norml dragon?

1. a violet colour, light blue, dark red

2.............................

3. I want a neclace wth a moon shape at the end of it so could you have some moon marks somewhere on her body

I meant that do you want it to be a normal, western-styled dragon or an eastern-styled dragon, or something like that? They don't all look like Spyro and Cynder.
Mia the dragon Blue Sparx Gems: 930
#121 Posted: 20:16:24 16/07/2010

Ok, I'll take some artistic freedom when drawing your dragon, but I'm sure you'll like the finished version.

Depends on who you ask. I could draw way better than this. These pictures are just doodles..

When I make a deviantart account, you'll see how well I can draw.
