Dragon

This is one of my most cherished pieces…not just because I am particularly fond of dragons, but because of the work that I put into the detail involved in it’s creation.

a friend once asked me what photoshop brush I used for the scales…and my response was “They make brushes that DO that??!”

I worked on this for about 2 weeks…and by the time I was finished and satisfied with it, I did not want to SEE another scale, let alone attempt to make one from scratch again!

But the results speak for themselves and I can say that I was and am very proud of this lovely creature!

hope you like him too!


this print is also available as a t shirt

    He looks so ferocious and you did a wonderful job on his scales.

    thank you!!!
    the scales were hard, i kinda made up the technique as i went along,,, but i am now glad that i took the time to go into the detail!

    Great Dragon,you can also use texturizer and pattern overlay to make scales and armor and a variety of things,there are many ways in PS to do stuff,that is what makes it so much fun.Dragons are my favorite things to play with,this one has the ultimate dragon expression.Regards.

    thank you Mcquaid…..
    i am still quite new to photoshop and digital art as a whole…
    i only have begun to start to teach myself how to do it in the last 2-3 years!

    his expression is one of my favs too…. i think that if i were caught in that stare, i would be unable to move!!!
