Army of One – HTTYD Art

Hey, what do you know, this is my very first colored art piece of How To Train Your Dragon! I know – I have actually completed an art piece?! Yesh. Yesh I have. For the past few days I've been working on this drawing of Toothless.  Click the 'read more' to see the whole thing!

Ta-da!

The drawing was originally done on paper, which was scanned into my computer. I added the colors (in streaky transparency, just to try something new) on Seashore, a drawing program for the computer.
Here's the line art:

And then, as Adam Young would have put it, the colors fell like snow.

For a while I was debating about how to color the wings. Eventually they were left blank, with skeletal bones stretching between white nothing. Early color test:

The finished piece has no lines, just because after I finished coloring it the colors made such a nice image in themselves I liked it better without lines. Still... what'd you think?

To line or not to line... that is the question.

Anyway, that's my little Toothless, soaring like a boss. I called it Army of One because of this gorgeous song by East of Avenue that I binge-listened (binge-listened? ...Yep. Totally.) throughout the whole process. I thought it worked quite nicely with the last Night Fury known to man viking. Hope you like him! :)
