The 'villianess' and servant of the Dark Master from The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning as rendered in colored pencil on black Astrobrights writing because it was handy. She took approximately 5 to 6 hours from sketch (modified from a previous pencil shaded sketch I did) to completion.
As I was finishing this up last night and this morning, I got an idea for more dragon characters I could render in color like this. The 'list' is around 10 so far but I'm not sure how many, if any, that I'll end up doing.
EDIT: I redid the scan and adjustments to make the final image a bit darker to reflect the darker nature of the original. My regret is I'm unable to get the true intensity of the orange highlights on her left side (viewer's right) without sacrificing some of the details in the darker areas.

Now that's nicely done. I know full well from personal experience how hard black is to work with in traditional media (never managed to pull it off so far). Only way I've so far managed to get things to look close to right was to colour via the tablet.
Definite thumbs up to you on this one.
