nice job on this. whenever i draw dragons, they always look a bit...deformed, hehe
hmm...at first glance, i'd say you're lacking a value between midtone and dark, but i know how my scanner destroys my graphite drawings. is this the case with yours?
overall, i think this is realy well done. i really like the lighting on the fins (?) on the head. i personally think the teeth should be a little whiter, or perhaps (if you're going for the natural look, seeing as dragons probably dont brush their teeth) add some highlights on the teeth to give more contrast between the interior of the mouth and the teeth. i'm very fond of the worn look you've given the horns (?). they look smooth, but not like mr. dragon has never had a brush with anything.
those are my thoughts; really nicely done!

I think it's great but you need to work on the mouth (teeth, tounge) and I miss some shadows (like from the pretty fins). Other then the fins I really like the cracks in the back spikes.

yay, second person to follow the rules <3
as for the picture, i see that you were trying to complicate the colors by mixing in cool tunes. the idea is great, but i have to say that the blending needs a little more work. other than that, good job. mrgreen

i really like this. the colors work really well together. only thing i can really say against it is texture, but, upon reading the description of the peice, i see you've already addressed it smile
but its really nice. i am especially fond of the movement in the braid; it looks very natural.

Yeah the texture of the paper does have alot to do with getting the colors smooth. Also try alternating between hard and soft leads while coloring it helps to fill in the little holes that the soft lead is not capable of covering up.

I know you've already covered the blending thing, but have you tried going over and blending it with a white colored pencil? Thats what always works for me, but it depends on the paper too. Also, it doesn't change the color very much.
This is a great drawing though, I love the hair.
