Work in Progress: Fire Dragon ACEO Sketch

I started sketching a pair of dragon ACEOs months ago, inspired by the last FAE Exhibition of 2010, Frost and Fire. Then I got distracted by life, and left them hibernating through the brunt of winter. Today Fire was awoken by the howling wind outside and demanded that the battle commence again. I conceded by unsheathing my black Sakura Pigma Micron Pens and inking him first.

I've lurked around the Sunday Sketches Linky hosted by Sophia at the Blue Chair Diary before but this is my first time drawing along! I hope participating will become a weekly regimen and not just a blue moon event.

  4. Ooooo - can't wait until it's finished. "Frost and Fire" reminds me of the first MMORPG I played: Everquest. My character had to kill a fire and frost dragon for an Epic Quest and it took me months. I actually drew my little dwarf with one fire and one frost wing (back in highschool or early university). Maybe I'll dig that out and linky back to you as inspiration for reflection... Ah... the good ol' days...
