My Work in Progress

A sketchblog where I post a few of my scribbles from a variety of works-in-progress, usually from my rather random personal creativity outside of the daily grind. I occasionally, but not always, post the final artwork.

More Dragons -- The Sentries


Here's a small version of the rather larger
detailed sketch I was just starting to scan the other day. It's from the same "world" as the "Artegal Portrait" I had posted previously; both were inspired from the YA novel "Voices of Dragons" by Carrie Vaughn.

Still have a bit of cleanup to do, and most likely some cutting and pasting as well before I call the layout final and proceed to color. This one will be rather fun to paint, too; based on the descriptions from the book -- one bright green, one red and one somewhat brown dragon about to launch off a cliff somewhere in Montana...or something like that. Hopefully I'll have some time to work on it over the weekend, but I do have some other items to revisit first before I get back to finishing this one.

A Dragon Portrait: Artegal

Took a short break today from the projects and did a quick portrait of Artegal the dragon as inspired from Carrie Vaughn's recent YA book, Voices of Dragons. As always, color above and the original sketch below. :)


Here's the initial sketch on one of my 9x12 Strathmore Drawing Pad 400 series with my favorite blue pencil (before Photoshop clean-up).
