Artist's Comments

*full view advised ;)*

Been feeling a bit glum lately, so to cheer myself up I took some 'me' time today to colour some lineart I did with my newly expanded range of rotring rapidographs (I've about 10 different sizes now). So without further ado, I present to you Syrax, caught for between his dracosvulf pseudoform and his true dragon form.
Why? Because I wanted to. I got stumped on backgrounds so I cheated and used another sketch I'd prepared earler.

___________

Blackjack (Syrax) and the other Daemonslayers prefer to keep the fact that he is Bloodbane a secret. This is because when people find out you were the evil tyrant that rose from the ashes of the Old Empire and enslaved the remains of a continent's human civilastion for a couple of centuries, awkward questions tend to arise (even though he's largely reformed).

As well as this, should the Emperor or the Arcanatoria (the high Council of Mages) discover he's still alive, they would spare no trouble to destroy him and any of his allies. Later on in the DS storyline Black's found out and this proves disastrous.

___________


I think he's looking for his trousers.

Blackjack looks somewhat gargoylesque here, a suitably gruesome rendering of the transition, great stuff! I especially like the detail of the ragged patches of his grey fur here and there on his hide/scales.
Definate fave.

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup

Whoa, another great piece of art. So much detail (again). :XD:

Trakos is a Red Dracor, one of the great Warriors of the Dragons. Robboman is an old parody character, which I use as my username.

Thanks! He could probably eat a gargoyle for breakfast though ;) I really wanted to push the detail with my linework and luckily not too much was lost in the colouring ^_^
