Leezards, dragons, or any other related creature thereof are always a win in my book!

I really like the rough sketch, are you going to hand-ink it first, or CGI from where it is now? I have PSD files for you, including one of just the (new) linework... so let me know if you want me to email them. Since you don't have a link to your email on your profile, maybe send one my way and I can reply to it.

So, it took me longer to get back with my CGI edits, but here they are. One is the CGI I did, by layers, in Photoshop at home. I poked at it for a couple hours each night (that's all I had time to spare, unfortunately) until this came about. It views a lot darker on a PC monitor than it does on a Mac.

Which led me to do the second one - which I lightened in Pixlr. When I get the chance, I'll edit the PSD file and make that lighter (which will retain the border better, I hope ).

[Edit]I went back and did another quick edit in Pixlr (third image). The border's integrity still doesn't make me happy, but what do my fellow Trappers think?[/Edit]

Your line quality is really good, as is the background oil effect also. To be honest i reckon you'd be doing better taking the border and solar flare out (just my personal taste). But other than that, well done!.

Regarding my concept sketch i reckon ill do a second copy of my original concept (To get the proportions and perspective right). I'll focus on dramatizing the foreshortening for a couple of snakes.

But i don't think ill be able to finish fully, too much to do and not enough time!

Don't rush yourself! I'd like to consider myself rather patient Thanks for the input - I'll save a copy of the image from the PSD file, later, that doesn't have either border or solar flare, so you can compare that.

I will have to get the files you requested to you later... I'm thinking tomorrow, if everything works out all right. My buddy training shift is going to be from 12:30 to 8pm today - and even the Library is closed by the time I'll be off of work.

I look forward to seeing your second draft, whenever you can get it done.

Until then, take care and keep in touch.

So, I had a bit of a graphic field day last night. I couldn't sleep, so I just kept poking at things. What resulted was some crazy linework (which I will post in a separate topic), and 9 new variations of my abstract CGI Let me know what you think!
