Enigma sure does have a bad temper when he turns into a dragon! What is he angry at? EVERYTHING.
Apart from food...and sleep. Lots of it.
Patchy background aside (on my test paper orange and red blended seemlessly, dunno what happened here) I'm really pleased with this. I'm definitely more at home with pencils, pen and paper than Photoshop.

This is my response to your tantrum I throw you a Husky Temper Tantrum! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs7Ni4jPr0w
Dragonigma doing what Dragonigma does best: being the eternal grump of grumpy eternity! Drawing the arms straight and the back straight do convey that tense feeling one gets when angry. The definition of the muscle (yes, there is some under the pudge) plays so nicely to that! At the same time, though, the comical pose of him standing on his tail, as well as his fat belly, do make this a pretty funny piece! His anger and his pose are juxtaposed beautifully that kind of make him look either extremely mad or just plain hilarious! You've put a great amount of detail into his face, I think. You've included those creases; again, this emphasises his tense, angry emotions, just like animals do! And another funny addition you've included: the smoke coming out of his nose. It just reminds me of animated humour where mad characters always have steam coming of their ears, although I suppose smoke is more appropriate, you know, dragon and all!
You know what makes this piece so magical? Traditional! The most amazing work has gone into the deep, rich shading and, my most favourite thing, the extreme, bright, vibrant colours! The markers you used shall go down in history, being used to create such a vivid piece! I'd say your blending is becoming a lot smoother. Perhaps it's your digital work which helps with this too. I don't know, experimentation with traditional can only go one of two ways whereas with digital, you can try and try again, haha. I don't know how you do it, I really don't. I'd love to know how you give that shine on the claws; I've mentioned it before and it's a great touch!
I don't want to say your art is toony. It isn't toony, but there's something about how, with regard to the colour, cheerful it is. It's loud, it demands attention, like cartoon styles, but it's your close attention to detail which makes it...well, yours. Your style is just yours. I've never seen anything like it and I doubt I ever will (for which I am glad; unique styles are my favourite).
So good to see traditional work from you again, Enigma! Keep inspiring me with your fabulous work! :D
