Civilized Dragon Project:
Today I gathered my drawings into a sketch dump of sorts.A couple of my peers also drew some ideas of how the dragons look in their mind. (Not sure if they want those images up so I wont add them for now)
The sketch dump of the dragons are also in the scraps of my DA here if you want to see closer
I was suggested to experiment with larger shapes as the base for the dragons and was given some examples of concepts with shapes.This is all to have a more appealing design overall starting from the silhouette.
I started with a triangle and put in smaller shapes around it to make arms,legs,head,and tail.Then for the details I looked at a dragon from Wakfu.I thought this would help me decide what things I like about the dragon that I use/develop onto my dragon race later on.
Then I used a circle along with Xiaolin Showdown's Dragon Dojo style to create a more eastern looking dragon.
Next with the square I tried something quite different.I used Vaporeon from Pokemon as a dragon reference.I think although the dragon as a whole doesn't look right there's something about it I could use later.I feel the whole water themed dragons have a certain elegance and serenity about them and that might help with my whole peaceful dragon idea.
Lastly for today I used the common bean shape and used a base similar to My Little Pony.
I think that this type of dragon could be the children dragon race and that the first two are quite elder looking.
Personal Projects:
Today I finished the forth part of my comic Rogues and Heroes.
I've been slowly working on this part of the comic since course started and I had quite a bit of trouble with some perspective issues as well as story telling issues of how many panels I needed to get the ideas I wanted across.
