2024 Year of the dragon
4 months ago
Happy New year everyone. I am excited for the new year, it is the year of the dragon :) I am going to try and do some new things with my art this year. I want to try and do quicker more messy pieces. Something I was doing about 5 or 6 years ago was not focusing so much on details but more so getting things down on the canvas quicker. Somewhere along the way I started really getting focused on details with my art. To the point where people were surprised to hear I was still around posting stuff. Something I tend to do with art is get hyper focused on details, which will stretch out the time it takes for me to consider it finished by quite a bit. I don't really post a lot of " wips" for the stuff I am working on. Also I don't have a twitter, or any social media. Ever since athus passed away I tend to keep interactions to RL because it is easier for me mentally.
That all being said, I am trying to find a healthy balance between doing something "rough" and "quick" as apposed to always taking everything I draw to the max level is not easy, but I definitely want to try and pursue it. That is not to say I want to stop doing really detailed images. Once a year it seems like I really get focused on an image that has a lot of scale or fur detail. Once its finished I feel like it is out of my system for a while and its time to do quicker more cartoony things. Anyway, I am just kind of putting my thoughts to paper here. I love reading all the responses and comments I get on art pieces from everyone. As I have said many times before, this fandom is amazing and the community keeps getting better and better :)
So expect more art from me this year then in the past few, it might be looser and messy on some pieces, but overall I think that same quality I am known for will still show through :) A famous artist once said " if art feels easy, then you are doing it wrong" and I try to live by that with every image :P Also any suggestions you all might have for future pieces or rule34 please feel free to suggest down below :) Thank you everyone for the tremendous 2023 and I am looking forward to 2024 :)

You'll always be appreciated here <3
So veledar fan art when?
:>
It would be so cool if you decided to draw Figment; I'd LOVE to see how the little imaginary purple dragon fella would turn out in your art style!
as for rule 34 ideas... well, since it is the year of the dragon and Buddyfight has its 10th anniversary, how about some Drum Bunker Dragon butt? x3
Good luck with your endeavor, it's always a treat when you share your work with us, whether rough or highly polished. Looking forward to whatever you're coming up with next.
As for suggestions, have you ever engaged with the world of Wings of Fire? It's a book series about a world full of dragons, I started reading it last month and got extremely hooked. Every character from there definitely deserves more artwork representation.
Any Renamon maybe~! Always got a soft spot <3
The dragon from Shrek. She's gotten an upswing in attention now later in life, but compared to how much love other dragons received during their debut i feel like she is severely lacking.
Did get a lovely piece of her from Longinius that was later colored by Colorsbyvest which I'm really happy with. Though I'm hoping there'll be more quality pieces like it. Either from myself commissioning it or others.
Babe from the movie Luck isn't a bad looking lady either.
I'm excited to see what you have ideas for this year, and I hope you draw what you enjoy! Messy, rough, detailed, crazy realistic, you should draw what you would have the most fun doing cause the best thing about art is when an artist enjoy what they're making. I remember your lower detailed/quicker stuff and I always loved that too!
As for suggestions, I don't have a ton cause I always love what you make, but I will say your Toothless, Red XIII, and Sisu pieces have been my absolute favorite things I've ever seen from you! Also Stitch, Wildmutt, Impmon and the Gatekeeper are always a treat, but honestly anything you make is always top tier.
Do what you enjoy! 😌
I hope this year will be better than the last
But atleast it's the year of the dragon :D

Gonna be a great year already . Simple answer , dragon >:3
Happy new year to you also Narse and I hope you have a great one also.
I hope these new quicker art pieces are gonna be funner for you to make . I know we will all love seeing more : D
I hope it all goes well for you~
Your pieces are always a joy to see. Your art of Guilmon from way, way back was the first light of the Fandom that shown on me so even if it's an oldie, that red Dino will always be my top choice to see more from you xp
Hope the Year Of The Dragon, is an amazing year for you!
As for suggestions. First and foremost as I say to anyone whenever this question comes up, draw whatever interests you the most. What grabs your interest, will be what you put your all into, you want to have fun, you want enjoy yourself, thus I think above everything else draw what your passionate about.
Also characters I can recommend, since you like dragons a lot, and it's the year of the dragon, perhaps characters from Dragalia Lost. That game is full of them.
Of course there's always Digimon, plenty of design for you to draw from.
Characters from World Flipper perhaps.
Also think it would be pretty neat to see you try your hand at some of the monster from Monster Hunter. Plenty of awesome designs for you to look into.
It's always nice to hear something like that. :)
My r34 suggestion is... Saphira :)
And my r34 suggestion would be Spyro or Draco. I'll be happy with seeing more of your art either way, have loved it for... Well it's been over 10 years I think
Suggestion for rule 34....hmmmmmm well, search up a game called The King of Dragons. Its an old arcade game that has a wyvern, a drake, and the dragon at the end Guildiss. I always found each of the dragons in this game really hot. Take your pick which one you'd think would be fun to make, if you choose any.
For R34, why not some Spyro? Been a while you draw our fave purple hero.
Your art always inspires me, can't wait to see more of it! :D
your artwork is probably distracting enough already, with those lovingly rendered lizard butts~
"Master. I have been to the marketplace. The men there argue, and fight. do we not want them to know...our, peace? *whispers* our joy..."
"Would you make the whole world a Temple? Be like the sun and what is within you will warm the Earth."
As to dragons. What about King Ghidora?
you are my top favorite artist whom I adore over everyone else, your specific style is literally perfect (fight me)
whatever you do, enjoy every day like it was the last.
ive always appreciated how great your art has been and i look forward to see more
hope we get to see more sexy dragons, theres so many of them in nostalgia medias
