Ok, so here's a picture of a dragon I drew the other day, while I was feeling a little sad.
It's vent art. I was actually going to call this "prisoner to love", but I thought that sounded a little weird X3.
http://weaslrocks.deviantart.com/art/Prisoner-171120604?q=&qo= Sorry, the picture's too big to post directly to the thread. And I'm feeling a little too lazy to alter it X3 :embarrassed:

I love how this tured out. Maybe you guys can see the feelings in this picture. ( I dont know if that made sence XD)

Even though this is a finished picture, I apreciate comments and critique. I am also ok with harsh critiques.

Partly inspired by this song, (and other songs by this artist) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSkxGQkHvI4

Very good, you've brought out emotion in it, especially in it's eyes and posture. I love the fur and the head and the idea of using the tail to support the dragon. The only thing I see is that the right hind leg is missing its paw, that leg hangs lower then the left so the paw should be visible and the neck seems a little too thick but thats more a matter of taste. Great picture nonetheless and I hope you're feeling better now^^

Interesting emotion details, I like how the dragon shows the emotion like it's really captured.

Hope you feel better.

I also love the emotions and everything!


The only thing I would suggest is maybe tethering the chain to something, cuz all my brain says is "Why Don't he just fly away" if you tether the chain to something it makes him flighless and even more of a prisoner.

Anyway, just a thought!

jwindjackal, who again loved the emotional detail

Elflady: Thanks! :)
OMG I didn't even notice the leg! wow. How did I miss that? Thanks for pointing that out :-)
Ya, the necks a bit thick, though I kinda like it like that in this picture. And I also wanted to thicken it up a little to show the bend in the neck better.
I'm feeling much better now :happy:

ArtFox21: Thank you very much! :-)

jwindjackal: Thanks for your opinion. I thought that tethering might distract someone, or take away from the picture. I should of done that, though, now that you mention it XD

Chickys: The song is called LoversLoveLiarsLie by Never Shout Never
I'm not sure we've listened to it on livestream, though. It's not from the (amazing X3) Avater movie soundtrack.
