Air Dragon

This is my first real try with water colors and markers.. he's from the how-to-draw app.. its real handy.. I do admit that my proportions are a bit messed up and he doesn't quite identical to his illustration... but since this is not a portrait of him.. I hope he's a little forgiving.. to the rest of you.. I don't think you've seen the original Draco so don't grumble! I like him.. but I'm not sure this was the effect I had in my mind.. I think my ideas of watercolors were way more lofty than they are in rl..


While painting the underbelly of the dragon.. I remembered why I used to hate watercolors as a child and always have fantasized oilz.. still.. never fear my dears.. I'm not throwing the other water colors palette away just as yet.. I"m hoping to experiment a lot more before I arrive at a final verdict on water colors.
