The Wild Dragon Chapter 6, 7

Chapter 6: Flight

Years would pass. Jessica watched every day as her daughter grew more and more. Every day, she got stronger, faster, and even more saddened when her mother had to go away to hunt or fish. Jessica eventually began to show Jessica which was good to eat, and what was not. She began to teach her everything that Staria would need to know. Although Staria was visually growing up, Jessica never treated her any different. Staria was her only daughter, her only real reason for living in Jessicas mind. Without Staria, she had nothing left to live for, and she would do anything to protect her.

From time to time, Staria would tend to

The Wild Dragon Chapter 4, 5

Chapter 4: Survival

Jessica wakes up suddenly. She raises her head and looks around frantically, breathing heavily as she does. "STARIA!" she cries out as tears fill her eyes. She then feels something pushing against her chest. She looks down and breathes a sigh of relief as Staria yawns while pressing her tiny arm against her mother's chest. "It was just a dream." She says to herself as she sits up against the cave wall. Staria opens her eyes and begins looking around herself, but it soon becomes apparent that she's hungry, and needs to be fed. Jessica then lifts the flap on her breast, and lets Staria nurse as she tears open a bag of potat

The Wild Dragon Chapter 1,2,3

Chapter 1: Transformation

"Wake up, we're here." These four words woke Jessica up from a deep sleep in the cold steel box van. A man in a black uniform walks up to her, and shakes her shoulder to make sure she's awake. Once he's satisfied that she's awake, he unchains her from the floor, and escorts her out of the van. Jessica felt naked under the orange knee length blouse as she was escorted through the yard into the main building. The place was obviously an old prison, but something was strange. Jessica had seen prisons on TV before, and this one seemed to lack the usual sights of prisoners in exercise yards, but there were still plenty of

A Day In The Life James looks at his watch, and looks out the store front onto the boardwalk. He lets out a sigh as he looks around in the store. Not a single patron so far today. He knew his boss would chew him out for the low numbers this week, but James knew it wasn't his fault that business had been slow. James preferred slow days to busy ones anyway. As an artist, he preferred to work on his own projects where he's in charge instead of a project for someone else where they have all the say in how the picture is done. As his attention is focused on the computer monitor with his hand guiding the tablet pen, his peripheral vision catches a familiar sight, a

"Are those steaks done yet?!" Tusami asks as Kaida sprinkles more seasoning on them.
"Be patient Tus, A well cooked steak takes time" Sienna says before taking a sip of her soda.
"Says the one with three kids, I'm starved." Tusami quips as she sets her smoothie down.
Kaida takes a whiff of the steaks, and after a second, she says "About five more minutes"
"You said that ten minutes ago" Tusami protests.

Sienna, Kiada, and Tusami are at a resort known as the "Venus Hotel, Spa, and Resort", it is a woman's only resort for female hybrids who are mothers, or just have stressful jobs, and need a place to unwind without worrying about guys gawking at them. For that reason, the whole complex is on an island with a dock for small sea planes. It is NOT cheap however, but anyone that goes there becomes a life member, and can return at any time, and only pay the cost of fuel and food.

This pic spawned out of a discussion on Livestreme between me and

, and after a short talk, I got to drawing this pic. And after about four days of work... I have to say... this pic came out well imho, and I'm very pleased with the results.

This is an interesting piece.

As a start, you have a good grasp on anatomy (which I find commendable in many cases these days). Your poses are interesting, and are not static. Your wings bent in a believable manner, and do not seem to hinder the positions of your characters. The weakest point of your anatomy, I think, is your hands and wrists. To me, the hands seem a bit small, particularly on Kaida, and the wrists, a bit thin. In the case of Tusami, the grounded hand seems to run right into the arm, with minimal wrist at all. Now, they aren't badly done, but I think there is still some room for improvement.

Your coloring and lighting are very well done, and you have an interesting palette, which serves the idea of a beach scene well. The positioning of the objects throughout the scene help with the theme, without appearing as random clutter. Your background has nice depth. However, your sand dunes seem somewhat flat. If you look at pictures of sand dunes, the shadows can be very dark and abrupt. As deep as the shadows on your characters are, and given the height of the middle dune, I think you could have added a bit of a harder shadow from along the top edges, to give it that nice crisp feel. Still, these are just some tips for future reference. You do have the elements for a wonderful piece here, as is.

What do you think?

First of all, the composition is quite well done, my eye is drawn directly to the figure in the middle. and the sand hill behind them keeps the eye rotating throughout the picture. Colors and shading are also exceptionally good. Although, I'd work more on the shadows upon the sand and the sand texture itself. I feel as if you might have gotten lazy on the background. It is obvious you used a repeating canvas type pattern, which makes the sand hills look two dimensional against the characters. Everything else, the luggage, items, and characters all pop out in their own uniformity. Again, great composition, the placing of the blue luggage in the corner keeps my eye from wandering off the page, even the blue shadow to the left corner keeps the viewer within the boundaries of the main piece, and the blue from each of these corners creates a uniformity of color around the center. The more neutral colored characters being placed at either side of the brightest character further define this area. You do a magnificent job with the transparency of the brown character and the way the skin shines makes it seem as if their skin is somewhat slick. Unfortunately I cannot quite tell the mood of the weather. The lightsource seems to be radiating from the top right of the picture on a cloudy day. If the picture was to be depicted in a more joyous mood, a more sunnier day might have done the trick, but perhaps you did this to accomidate for the white highlights of the characters. Like the background the fire of the main characters tail seems a little fake in comparison to the rest. It's cartoonish 2d style clashes a bit with the main characters but oddly enough might work with the also very cartoonish background.
