nice

why sorrow?


...the little guy's only sleeping... right?

Yeah he's just sleeping but she lost the rest of her clan and she's not sure what she should do.

Ah. :3
Well thats okay then, she still has him. <3

And if she's looking for a place, I have a large lair and refugees are always welcome

Ich hab schon gewartet, das du das Bild endlich hoch lädst. ^^

xD Hatte grad irgendwie Lust dazu.

Your patience in rendering all of those scales needs to be commended. Well done! I particularly like the lighting around the lantern. Not that the rest of the picture isn't great as well;)

I'm totally loving details. xD There's no dragon I wouldn't give detailed scales so it's quite normal but this time the scales were really small and I think I'll stay at these small ones.
Thanks for your comment! I'm happy to hear that some guys like my art. :3

I like this painting... I'm curious as to what methode you used to paint it... as I'm trying to develope a new style myself... did you paint it directly in ccolor or did you sue that black and white technick then applyed color over it?

also rain isn't an easy thing to paint... and in this particular scene... I think the rain looks a bit 1 dimentional
You could have tryed adding more layers of water drops behind the dragons too to give deapth to the iamge.

Also, some mroe contrast on the dragons' scales would have accentuated the impression that they are actually wet...

ANd just like to point out that the larger dragon's snought seems unusually small compared to the rest of her body... especially when comparing it to the little hatchling... one would expect the hatchling to have a smaller snought and the adult to have a larger one... but that's just me.

Now besides those things... I must say you did an awesome job on the dragon's scales ( did you paint them all by hand or used a texture? ) and on the vegetation... really convincing, however, I think there's just a bit too much difference between the blue of the background and the green in the foreground... methinks if the green in the foreground were just a bit more bluish it would have givven more unity to the overall image and accentuated the idea of rain...

anyways, overall it's a really ncie pic... I'm working on a rain picture myself now... so it's been a nice thing to look at. Keep up the artwork...

Thanks for your praise and critiques. :3
I drew directly with colour since grey scale loks pretty metallic if I try to draw with it. ^^

Lovely. I've always liked pictures showing a mother protecting their child ^^

Beautiful, yet so sad!

Great job!

It's beautiful and I feel sorry for her loss. I'd welcome her gladly.

Your attention to detail is wonderful, and your skill is powerful. Masterfully done. + fav and + watch!

EPIC ! wow...

Very beautiful picture that conveys so many powerful emotions.

Thats nice..goood dragon

this is just beautiful I love it

This picture is really touching. I mean like on a deep personal level. Thanks so much for drawing and posting this. You do superb work!

Mother's sorrow would be losing her children. But the case I"m going through I've resently lost my mother and I feel so lost. Nice pics it brings up happy memories from the past of the times i spent with my mother

I'm loving all the detail. <3

My only small critique would be that I would draw the raindrops spattering against her wings and against her back here and there, just to show that it's shielding the youngling from the rain.

Nice job and hello im knightstemplar123 or you can call me Nightshade im new here to the art site and if i was there i would try to ease her pain and sorrow about the loss of her clan
