This is some practice at drawing an Eastern-style dragon, with the shape and lines taken pretty unimaginatively from a how-to tutorial sketch at http://www.dragoart.com. The improbable and odd coloring is entirely mine and mostly shows off that I found some new coloring options on SketchBook Pro. You understand how that will interest someone.

Thank you. Well, I was following a tutorial so the shapes kind of fell in line without my weak skills manipulating them.
The colors themselves are fine, it's just that they were laid out for their composition as a drawing rather than as something that'd make particular sense on the creature. Why would there be a green lower jaw and a silver upper? Well, I didn't want to draw that much silver at once. Why does the red fringe give way to blue? It's kind of near the shoulder line, perhaps, if you're generous, but more it's just that I wanted a third color in. The colors make the picture read cleanly, but that's all they have going for them.
