Dragon mother with hatchling by *QuantumSuz:iconQuantumSuz:

Artist's Comments

A protective dragon mother watches over her newly hatched.....
It is her first offspring and she's going to make sure nothing gets in the way of looking after him.

-------

Mech pencil drawing on A3. Added a slight sepia hue & border in photoshop, nothing else changed.

I think this is my most anatomically correct dragon so far. I spent a long time on the muscle structure and thinking how certain parts would actually work - I guuess I find it quite interesting how dragons would actually be built. In this drawing I actually drew the entire muscle structure first before putting the scales over the top.
I have a WIP drawing of this showing 1/3 sketch 1/3 anatomy structure 1/3 finalised detail and scales - I wonder if I should post that too..... maybe in scraps later.

Isn't the little one just adorable?

Hope you like :)
