Thank you for the compliments, I am trying to push myself to get better but I struggle with proportions! I think your Lion is sweet!

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. - Psalm 23

Awesome lion Alexanda! @Chris, yeah, I've got the same problem. :/

Alex, great people pictures! Wish I was that good...and cute lion too!


Andy the Beagle is adorable, Feyna!


Chris, your dragons are incredible!

I really wish I could draw as good as you people.

Hey! I just had this crazy idea. We don't have to do it if you guys don't want to, though.

I thought that maybe we can decide on a scene or something, then we draw the things we are good at. For example, if I'm good at faces, I draw the faces. Since I'm not so good at the body yet, if there's someone who can, they'll draw the body, and so on. We post them up here so we all know where the picture is going. Then someone will put them together and the final picture will be put up here.

Whaddaya think?

If I might be so bold as to jump in here, that sounds like a wonderful idea, Alexandra! I'm decent at figure drawing (and just people in general), if you find yourself in need of my services!

I think my brother may be able to put the pictures together, but I'm not sure...I'll have to ask him.

I'll leave the drawing to y'all though, as I'm rather rot at anything but kiddie drawings.

It doesn't matter, Mareth. This will be a picture that will have elements of us all. We can have some kiddie drawings... somewhere.

Yeah, you can ask your brother. If he's not able to, I can do it.

Oh, awesome dragon Chris! Great idea and pics Alexanda! Hmmm...I'm better at animals or nature stuff, but I'm OK with drawing people if that would help. Or Alexanda, maybe you can draw the people, post it on here, and I'll do the outfits (I love designing outfits). What do y'all think I should draw?

It's alright! We can have a flower dangling on a dragon, or a sparkly unicorn dancing, or even a rainbow around the good dragon's head, or little pixies trying to fight. This will be something like a group picture. Something we can all take part in.

Well, I guess I can draw a little something. Perhaps one of these days I'll put up some of my kiddie pictures.

Beautiful pictures, everyone!
We were one in the same, running like moths to the flame. You'd hang on every word I'd say, but now they only ricochet.

I don't really think I am at all good enough too, I would like to , I guess I'll have a try!

I have got a Tablet for my PC now which is cool so I can do digital art, its a lot of fun,

Nice! I love digital art.

Oh, and thranduillion, maybe you can give us a human figure (or a few if you want) in action. Once we get those figures, Mellwen can design outfits for them. (Don't worry too much about the postitions, they can be edited to match each other. Just give us the general idea of the pose)

Mareth, how about a pretty background? Maybe the dragon is attacking fairy paradise, and the good allies join in to help.

Oh dear, fairy paradise? Can't really do that..unless they are season fairies and they happen to live in mushroom houses..

Amazing! Can you do the rest of the body? In any pose you want. It's up to you, really.

Thanks for the comments, this was just a practise, I am working on a more evil Dragon for a full body pose, this is a practise of his head.

Chris, as always, it is great to see your work.

Finnr, I can hear the beating of the wings.
My destiny is riding again, rolling in the rain, unwinding in the wind. My destiny is fighting again, secretly unwinding..what it was I was supposed to say...to say to you today.
