Guardian Dragon

A drawing I worked on during class today, when I got home I inked and colored it, and of course, my scanner butchered the colors, but I finally got it to look semi-decent. I need to play with the settings some more to get it perfect. There will be five of these; guardians for my world, each a different color and element. I would like to send a couple as candidates somewhere, and one or two to flights. If anyone is interested, let me know. This one is Nibori, the Fire Guardian.
If anything looks glaringly wrong, other than the rear foot, point it out, and I'll see if it can be fixed, or if I did it that way on purpose.

I love his face... very sweet and gentle for a fire elemental, but it works.

Holy crap those are all scales.... wow...

If you have a water one and want to send it to the Swim that'd take up one more valuable spot there...

Samber: Originally, the pic started out to be a dragon from a book I just read, Stone of the Stars, and I was going to use the pic for two dragons, a wind and a water. Then I had an idea for a story, and now there will be five; though they are all the same template. They are all going to have similar temperments, fairly mild, but each will be unique.

Shard: I was actually hoping to do that. The next one to color is the water; but I had to rest my hand after the scales on this one.

Yaay! I'm going to have to really re-do the whole swim page anyway so when you're ready i'll be ready.

http://www.geocities.com/healing_den/hd-swim2k4.htm Is the current addy. That page will remain up but I might do something more with it on others.

Yay! I figured out the scanner problem! Now his pic looks like it should; and you can see his eye color

Preeeeetty! I love the smooth curves and such. Very nicely done, Jess.

thanks for all the nice comments! I finished the water dragon, though I haven't thought of her name yet; I like the way she turned out, her scales are the smallest of all so far. I flipped her but I'm not sure if I'll keep it that way; I think it looks funny

The air is done too but I 'll show him later

Sweet. The level of crampy-handedness you're going to have is soooo high.

The level of purtypurty is sooooo high.

Personally, I like her BETTER flipped. *nodnodnod* she's SO purdy...
