(It should be a whole pile of bones but I got lazy on the detail.)

At the Dragon*con Art Show alongside many other fab artists, there happened to be a certain Mr Todd Lockwood (and if you're a dragon fan who says 'who'. shame on you ). And thanks to some prodding from (thankies!! ) I managed to not miss the opportunity to show him my portfolio for a little C&C. He was super nice and gave me some really good crits and suggestions for areas for improvement. One of them was lighting which I totally failed at here. And another rather important one was to work on my figures which is fair play since I draw outta my head and it does rather show. So as of now I plan to start using stock photos/references more and see where that takes me. And since Blackjack's just so much damn fun to draw I picked him for my first effort, using this luvly photo [link] from *LinzStock

The lighting's a bit rubbish, largely due to a mis-stroke with the black ink which I then had to hide, but had to blacken everything else to make it fit. Next time I should probably scan first, brush ink later but I suppose life's about taking risks XD


Indian ink, markers, pencil crayon and gel pen.
