Another member of my disappearing dragon series. Whatever it is I'm hunting for, I feel like I've really gotten closer to on this one. It's crystallizing. I'm getting closer.
Pink/purple is another one of those colors I stay away from. This has kind of a funny story behind it. While I was working on a commission, I managed to get a lot of fresh thio violet (one of my fav. shading colors) all over my drawing surface and my shirt. Drat. that's stuff's expensive! So I extracted as much as I could and used it as a base color for an image, that eventually ended up being this one. Not bad for a mistake :D
I've been making a lot of feline-type dragons, and felt like I'd like to do something with more of a deer face.
And all of my horns lately have ended up being a reverse version of Yugi's bangs ha ha ha. It's just too fun drawing those curling zigzags.

If I'm getting the right idea of what you're hunting for, I'd like to offer a suggestion:
As the dragon disappears, I notice you widen some of your strokes. The effect in a photograph would be a narrow depth-of-field, focused on the dragon's head. Perhaps if you work at adding that sense of depth, and make the disappearing part become blurry?
Photo references might help--I can poke around for something if you'd like.
