Breaking in my new tablet with a portrait painting of one of my friends, Amulrei (not on site). Got inspiration on this one from a few other artists around the net for how to make my lighting more interesting, as well as being told I need to start using my contrast a bit more intelligently, or "like you used to". Hopefully it shows.

Ugh. Derecho. Straight to the bone, man. </3

I had to be a little bit evil today.
Seriously: Lovin' the flowy surface of those wing sails back there.

Thank you~ I admit on those wings, I was looking at a few other artists and how they do that sort of texturing. I should make a note to do some studies of bat wings and stuff so I can tackle wings and thin skin better on my own without needing a nudge in the right direction from others. So many things to work on!
Evil Derecho is best Derecho. I forgive you.

The greys are painted so wonderfully here! :D

Yessssss. Perfect. I was actually slightly concerned, because this new tablet's display is slightly cooler than my monitor I was painting on before. So in flipping back and forth, I wasn't sure about the accuracy. If they look good to you, then I'll add another tally to it being okay.
Thank you!

I can understand. I do all my scanning on my old computer (which was brand new when Windows XP came out), but the monitor has lost some colors (it has an overly blue tint now)--so when I scan my art I always have to keep in mind when I adjust things, don't mess with the blues! XD My laptop has a much more accurate display of colors...so I can say that your greys look really wonderful! :D
You are most welcome! :)

This is a fabulous dragon!! I like how you worked with value. The scene looks dark, but still with plenty of contrast to make out the character with no problem!
-
Yesssss. Perfect. That was exactly the goal -- I knew I'd have to tackle it since his scales are black, so I figured I had even more reason to work on my contrast from the last critique I got. So glad to hear it works. Thank you so much!
