wow..thats pretty amazing

Also, fyiad ~ 2 year anniversary!

beautiful

Just a phenominal picture. My mind boggles at the though of doing that floor... O_O

Holy crap! I thought that was 3d for a second! Beautiful work, Skadjer.

Man, this is beautiful. Nice efects.

Wow, your technique has gotten even more beautiful since last time I saw your art.

Amazing and beautiful style!

Damn, that's amazing!

wow, how'd you do that?

Absolutely stunning work. I'm speechless!

That's stunning, I love the details on the dragons, keep up the work Skadjer, its beautiful.

So glorious, I love this piece so much. Dragon cuddles for the win! :D

do want



love your art

Wow. This is an incredible piece.

Wow... This is really awesome! This is... Amazingly awesome! Wow... Well done!

The floor is mesmerizing and dances it's way to and around Bronz and Azusis

Wow, that coloring is amazing. I'm curious to how you did the background.

A combination of emboss filters, stroked masks and distortion tools. The spirals themselves were cloned ink drawings.

Holy crap that's freakin cool! Superbly done!

Wow... As always with your art, I'm voiceless...

Whoa, this is pretty damn awesome :v

Finished this I see. Looks great.

What have I done?

I've unleashed a monster upon the world!!!!

MUHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAAA!!!!!*snort*

Absolutely beautiful lighting in this. :)

And HOMG CUTE DWAGGIES! <3

The reflections are absolutely stunning. And I can't imagine how long it must have taken you to get all those spirals drawn and coloured.

Excellent!

I'm quite glad to see you putting your stuff up on FA Skadjer, and this makes for a heck of a first piece. This is utterly breathtaking, and the background must have been maddening to work on and get all those details and reflection in.

I just love how sweet and tender this is, and the pair looks fantastically detailed. This is totally my new desktop wallpaper!

Definitely one of the most amazing pieces of art I've seen all year, bravo.

Bah! Catching me asleep so I can't pounce and praise you for the incredible job you did with this commission. Not only did you live up to your own exacting standards of beauty and composition, but the portrayal of both of our characters is incredibly faithful to both our designs and personalities. Absolutely apropos in its completion, this was the most beautiful anniversary gift I could imagine. <3

The world can never have enough beautiful dragon tails!

I squealed when I saw I had a skadjer upload in my list :D And just like everyone else has noted - the background is amaaazing. I love the expressions on their faces!

Wonderland for wonder creature, Mmmm.

Perspective, characters, background ... Love every aspect of the work.

Wow Skadjer, you really depicted such a beautiful moment there, so lovely <3

holy shit

o hai~!

love how you did our colors ^^

hehe yes we talked about it on the phone hehe it reminds me that Azusis and Bronz have combs on there tails and they are designing their own zen garden.

That is absurdly well-rendered. Sheer excellence.

That. Is Fn' epic seriously. fabulous job on the background and reflection and amazing job on the lighting and coloring. two thumbs up

You're back with a bang...
Bloody amazing.

Well , holy crap that just blew me away!

Really awesome work !

YOU POSTED

I am always so thrilled when I see your work; you're one of my absolute favorite artists in this community, I totally need to fangirl. *gush*

homg wow <3

The detail on the ground...its mind blowing.

Amazing, and now my desktop wallpaper. Thank you.

Absolutely beautiful and inspiring!

background reminds me of devil summoner 2 sort of

That's incredible!

I'm impressed.

Okay, I'm more than impressed, but using words like 'beautiful' and 'amazing' just don't cut it. Maybe if we meshed all the words that mean exactly what those two together we'd get something that could describe this? (Either that or just a really long jumbled mess, but that's beside the point.)

On a rating from one to five, this is undoubtedly ten. Love it.

Each time I come back to the picture I find some new little or large detail I didn't catch the first time, so many fine touches all throughout the picture. Just such an awesome piece of work!
And adorable to boot!

I think "Glorious" is a fitting word here :D

Incredible man, your art is really flawless...

i am glad i clicked this, the thumbnail is very deceptive. phenomenal work as always.

So amazing that it is above a stone lotus in the sky.

Super cute!!

*removes eyes and polishes them. then pops them back in* well i'll be darned my eyes are working. wow...simply wow the details but mostly the reflection work o nthe ground is nearly physically accurate to what it would be in real life. you sir have a talent beyond most of us here.

This style is incredibly eyecatching! Beautiful work.

Oh my word this is on so many levels stunning.

I am simply mesmerized by this piece! Very touching posing between the two, the shading is beautiful and that floor is amazing. The patience you have to render something like that is incredible!

In-cred-ib-le.

I seriously can't explain how good this is. Incredible.

That's fantastic! Holy wow!
Love the background!

thank you for uploading, i do enjoy your art so so much.

This is absolutely astounding! I love the designs of the ceramic twirly thingys :P And the reflections of the two dragons are amazing :) And such an intimate picture without being erotic or even hinting at such...well maybe it does but i'm still drinking in that lovely eye massaging candy!

Oh my, the reflections are just stunning! The whole thing is stunning!

WTF O.o
this is PERFECT!!!

That floor is phenomenal.

Fascinating concept and beautiful execution. I can't stop staring at the floor.

There's only one word that can fit in this pic: Beautiful <3
And it's a very nice work ^^ the details and effects are amazing <3

This is ASTONISHINGYou must've spent sometime drawing just the patterns on the ground, AND yo put a mirror image ini the space between ot TOO?!? thats just EIPC.

How do people make mirror images at different angles like that?

Wow, that floor must have taken forever to render! I'm also loving all the subtle detailing on both characters there :)

that background is so complex, it's amazing!

Wow that is cool! Lovely work!

you are fucking incredible.

Hooooooooooly HELL!! What a work of art! The designs on the ground are mind numbingly detailed! And the reflections within are even more killer! And i love the expressions as well. Simply mind numbing work @_@

Wonderful job on coloring the dragons! The detail is great and I love their expressions. Yay for dragon snuggling!

*chuckle* And I just noticed you did draw their reflections too.

Well done!

Why am I now only seeing this... I could not even begin to say a word about this work. It is just mind boggling.

*bows with the deepest respect*

HOLEE MOLEE! This is absolutely fantastic! WHY THE FRAK HAVEN'T YOU BEEN UPLOADING MORE OF YOUR ART! I knew you could draw, but jeebus, this blows my mind. Beautiful stuff! If I wasn't watching you before, I'm certainly going to fix that little oversight...

Man, this is just mind-blowing for the sake of blowing minds. I really should just sit here and study the heck out of this piece.

awh ^^ thats cute ^^ great work man ^^

Nice, that glass looks really reflective like water. ^^ Pretty

This exploded my mind. How on earth did you do this?

My thoughts entirely, *whispers* I think he is secretly jesus.

fantastic work, I love the detail. this si so getting a fav

absolutely stunning

Beautyful

I'm not very partial to dragons but you have taken my breath away with these two.

I'm very glad you happened to decide on uploading here on FA. Please keep up the good work.

wow this picture really looks nice, the ground really gives a nice effect and kinda lets the dragons stand out really good job!

amazing work on the Back\ground.

OMG It's so amazing!

DAAAAMN!!!

Lovely^^

background O_O

how did you have the patients to do all that haha. amazing piece

The shading is so lovely and clean and the ground is impressive :o

Holy crap that's beautiful. Lovely job with only using two colors and various shades!

Good god how did you do that floor; it's absolutely amazing.

while the dragons are quite pretty in their own light. holy crap that floor. i could stare at it for hours~ wouldn't mind seeing that by itself :X

Oh my gawd! This is way up there in the best dragon arts I've ever seen

Absolutely beautiful..stunning piece of work, thank you for sharing.

Oh. wow. There are now words to describe how amazing this is. O_O

*no

Awww they are so cute =3

wow ^^ its so awesome

This is absolutely stunning @_@ That background and the colors on the characters. It's all so smooth and beautiful. Ah. I love this. :'3

oh wow

So Skadjer, can you perhaps enlighten myself on just HOW you managed to paint this entire picture with nothing more sophisticated than a MOUSE!?!?!?!

It wasn't all by mouse... I drew and partially rendered the characters in pencil.

From there it was a combination of lots of overlapping semi-transparent brush strokes and various filter effects, which weren't done freehand. The mouse's lack of pressure sensitivity slowed this process down, but there are always more elaborate, less efficient ways to accomplish the same goal.

Ahh, now upon closer inspection I can see now what you mean. Also it helped that I recently saw the tutorial you made on how you created the elaborate patterns the two dragons are standing on. :)

Even so, the mere fact that at no stage of this image's creation did a stylus ever so much as touch the surface of a tablet, is still a testament to your outstanding eye for artistic detailing and your expert understanding of the art programs you used to produce this amazing piece of artwork.

Oh, and you're pretty handy with a pencil too obviously! :D

Top notch stuff Skadjer! :)

Awesome job on the lighting <3

i. Love. This. Pic. made it ma desktop background and every time i turn on my computer i say " d'awwww, skajder, you're so awesome"

I believe this is one of the most gorgeous things I've ever seen on this site.

FFFFF. This is pretty much the coolest ever.


I was so busy staring at the swirls and reflections and whatnot I almost forgot about the dragons. :o

Woow. This is amazing on so many levels.

What an incredible background. The dragons are amazingly well done too, with the shading and everything.

This is ridiculously beautiful. I love love love the reflections on the ground, they seem like they would have been super hard to do.
Jeez, over all this picture is amazing.

Honest to god the first thing I said when I saw this was "Holy fu** that's amazing".You have incredible talent.

How on Earth did you manage all of that gorgeous detail without going crazy? Kudos to you!

They're so handsome together! Great job, Skadjer. ^.^

Good Design :)

Incredibly gorgeous piece! I'm absolutely floored by the reflections and floor they're standing on. (.. Pun actually not really intended..)

I keep stumbling across this piece in various favorites lists, and it never fails to impress. This is an immaculate piece.

This is probably my fav. piece of artwork on FA

This piece is truly gorgeous...

This is amazing.

Whatever you got paid for this - it was not enough! Haven't seen too many pieces on FA I'd call 'classic' but this is one.

I thought I asked this a while ago, but apparently not. How did you assemble the floor in this image? It's quite effective!

this is so beautiful! i love the colors and the area which they are standing on.. so in love. so cute

That's beautiful. You did a really good job of making the dragons "pop" despite the noisy background. Really awesome.

You guys make a fantastic couple <3 You and your mates I mean.

Gorgeous.

The entire setting and place of the picture is so eye-catching! It drew me in right from the start!

I am afraid words fail to express what I am feeling when I see this.

I've seen this some years ago on your dA account, it's still one of my fav dragon art pieces of all time!
The floorpattern and the reflecting sky in the 'wet' parts are just an amazing contrast to the two characters!

Oh wow, this is so very sweet!
