Does not look finished to me; why did you stopped filling the skin-details?; looks like a good dragon to me! Keep up the good work :)

Artist Reply: I used the limited detailing at the recommendation of another artist. The GoH at a convention recommended not doing the hyper-detail scaling that I had been doing, and only filling in the center, or the periphery, to create a less flat effect. All three pieces are done in a similar style. It was an experiment.

I bet you could really do great work, but for those crappy markers. Stay focus your doing nicly.

Artist Reply: Thanks. I didn't really consider .005 width micron art pens to be crappy markers. It might help to know that the original is only about 3" x 5" (paper size), and that my target market is the role-playing game industry (interior art, which is usually more stylized).
