warrior sketch

Some more pose studies. The original model had a bored look on his face, so I changed it into an angry war type yell, then I kinda liked how it looked and decided to give it a fast costume, Celtic warrior style.

First Introductions

WIP The dragon started off as a drawing in my sketchbook, I added the cloaked figure as a worshipper/master of the baby dragon.
