“Pete’s Dragon” had ears.
Mahlikus: Yes it is the same technique I described to you with fog however I also applied the shading ehnancer and highlighter brushes to the image after exporting it and importing it into a new layer
Deks: lol I guess it could have a tempanic membrane instead but then again all the classic Dungeons & Dragons style dragons have ears of some sort or another.
Aurick: What is Pete’s Dragon??
The Disney movie. Dang, I must really be dating myself here. LOL
Oh it was a cartoon wasn’t it? I think I kind of remember it now. Dating yourself? (snicker)
I love Pete’s Dragon…I love those cute gurgle growl noises he makes!
AND THAT BIG CHIN!!
aawwww!
hmm. Mayby. But i remember that some dragons had something like this:
dating as in age…not romance…
thinks about it and snickers too
That’s what I was talking about Deks. I just went for something a little different is all. It’s a wip. Undoubtedly it will change many more times before I am happy with it to use in my final image.
I think the funktion of them are to help the dragon when is flying. Help him Stering up,down,right and left.
…or pick up F.M.
…okay I’ll stop
Very nice WIP Lonnie…Your material experiments have been very interesting to watch…And I actually like the ears precisely because they are unusual in a dragon illustration…To me, repetition in art is all too common, and I like new ideas over endless stereotypical interpretation…
Hi Menta
Now, I Know who is the ancestor of the red lobster scalding
Pilou
Okay! Sorry if i was to critical. Altough the dragon are very original. My great complimants to this one. AND the ears!
Cool image Mentat!! Do u can illustarte the fog tecnique that u have mensioned???
There may have been a plethora of dragons of late, but I’m glad you posted this guy, Mentat. He’s a true aristocrat among the many. Excellent work, and all the better for being that little bit different.
Theres nothing wrong with dragons! I would model one myself but I really dont have time to do any projects right now. Great image as usual Mentat, just remember just like dragons you can never make too many zscripts either (hint hint)
I personally would LOVE to see a classic D&D dragon modelled just because those illustrations are so details and amazing looking. But originality is also good and I think the ears go well with the rest of the dragon.
Knowing you Mentat, that dragon’s gonna be smokin’
Well done as usuial The modeling and texturing are just tops
As promised here is the material used in this image. Note that for best results the lighting (included in the ZIP file) should also be used. This is for version 1.51 only
Thanks Mentat!
I was already waiting for this
