Hello Friends!
My practice of the day is another incredible creature. It is a new dragon made with charcoal pencils!
Earth Dragon
For this drawing i will need:
- Mechanical Pencil.
- HB Leads.
- Charcoal Pencil Soft.
- Brush.
- Diffuser.
- Moldable Eraser.
- A4 Opaline 300G.
let's start!
Ready the sketch, i started by illustrating the eye, i did the drawing taking the side of the dragon because it shows better its characteristics.
with the charcoal pencil and the HB pencil i was illustrating the corrugated skin, giving similarity to the rocks, i gave the volume with the moldable eraser, delicately clearing at the edge of the shadows.
In this step, illustrate the mouth, keeping the same texture of rocks on your skin, and making thick scales.
I illustrate the fangs protruding from the mouth and their horns giving texture to worn bones.
I had a problem with the tone i used, where i could not highlight the different scales, however when giving volume with the moldable eraser, it looked good!
I could stain his skin a bit, making rustic strokes without blurring and this gave him an incredible texture!
at the end of illustrating the face, in the back part i gave a darker tone just approaching the horns, to give the feeling that it is less exposed skin.
His longer horn i illustrate with the HB pencil so it did not have the same dark tone as the skin, although it cost me to differentiate the shadows i could find the right tones.
Finally i illustrated the neck, without flaking, just keeping the same rough skin.
I made scales on his back and kept the texture rough, giving the sensation of rocky skin.
