AND THERE YOU HAVE IT!! That's the end of the Daily Dragon Challenge! A dragon drawn for each day of the year within the Year of the Dragon! All 366 days cause of course it was a leap year.
I can't believe it's actually finished. When I set out to do this at the start of the year, I figured I'd probably drop it really early in. But somehow I ended up managing to stick with it even throughout all the stupid stuff that happened this year. We got to the end!
What a trip! The whole process absolutely had its ups and downs, I won't even pretend like it didn't. Some days were tougher than others, and when I had to catch up by drawing like, a weeks worth of dragons in one go that was a bit stressful. But I think I managed to do a lot of cool dragons during all this, make some nice art, and even got to try some stuff I wouldn't normally do like clay and chalk!
Today was not good and I was almost worried I wouldn't finish the final dragon. But thankfully I pulled it off. Thank you all SO much for indulging me during this, and for looking at all these dragons, and all your support during 2024. I couldn't have done it without you all, or at the very least it would've felt way less rewarding.
Immediately you're probably asking, what's next? And I'm going to tell you what's next: NOTHING! I'M DONE!! This was a lot of work and a lot of stress, and I don't wanna continue doing it. 366 unique dragons was TOUGH. So it's finished, from this day on, I'll only draw a dragon when I feel like it. But don't worry, there will be plenty more dragons for me to draw in the future.
I know I want to make a mural with all the daily dragons in it, but that's proving to be a longer process than I initially realized. So I'm gonna take my time so it looks nice, okay? And outside of that when I get the time I'd like to put all of the dragons into a little pdf or something with all their concept art and explaining more about what each one is and why I made it or chose to draw it. So keep an eye out for that!
I mentioned it before but 2024 was a remarkably bad year. And I'm eager to see it go. This challenge certainly added some stability and something to do during all this mess of a year. And even though I'm feeling a little bleh now that this crummy year is over, I guess I am pretty proud of how it all turned out! I'll give you all some opinions on which were my favorite later, because it's 366 to sift through. But from the final 8 dragon gods, Behemoth was absolutely the best looking imo.
Thank you all again SO SO SO MUCH for your continued support of everything I do. It really means the world to me that anyone finds my art interesting at all let alone all my silly little dragons. I really don't take for granted the fact that people like what I post, and I hope you all enjoyed watching this challenge unfold as much as I enjoyed working on it... for the most part... From voting on the most popular dragon, to just liking each random design you enjoyed, I really appreciate all of the support and love I got this year. I plan on drawing way more dragons in the future, from stuff that got put on the chopping block to new dragons I never even considered. Let's make 2025 a better year with many more wonderful dragons to come!
Thank you all again, Bahamutgreen!
