A sketch I did of Anare'il the Dragon of Chaos.. The fot by his claw is a little girl, to show scale.. he's the size of a city.
This sketch took almost 10 years off and on to finish. It was in rather poor shape originally so extensive repair work and shading contrast was done to bring it up to current standards. Started in 2004 ended in 2013.
He is entirely black and white, with reptilian eyes, 3 horns on his head, and retractable snake-like fangs and lots and lots of teeth. His body is covered in both plate armout and fur, and his wings are composed of a combination of black sinew and white skin. His tail is very long and has black razor sharp spikes running down the length of it. He also has armor plates running along his belly. His neck has a lot of glowing coals and has 3 row of spines running along it. A rather clever and powerful beast in the end.

I love the detail in this, your line work is perfect. My drawings always look very "sketchy"!
Shawn Dall replied:
my advice.. use the entire grade spectrum of pencils.. from 4h until 6B.. the closer you want it to look the darker grade you use, the thicker the lines and the most contrast you use - farther away.. lighter, softer, blurrier.. that brings the perspective in :) and thank you :)

Looks like he must have been difficult to draw...v
