Artist's Comments

Honestly, I started to put this piece to "Surfin USA" by the Beach Boys, but I wasn't sure if :iconstrah: would beat me for associating her fursona with such old school music. :XD:
I do love the beach boys though, I'm a huge fan. :heart:

So, in short, this is just a little something that I've owed Strah for an embarrassingly long amount of time, and then I screwed over the background. But I do think I did a good job in capturing the beauty of her fursona. :)

I like the colors that match between the dragon and the ocean!

The background is so pretty :) You've blended the colors well, and I'm envious of the fact you can draw such excellent straight-on head perspective ;)

Wow, that is a beautiful dragon! I love how she almost blends in with the sea. :) I think it looks awesome, but the foot on right hind leg looks different from all the rest of 'em...

Thank you so much :hug:

I completely agree, something is very wrong with that leg. And it's not just because of the heavy shading on it either.. I think it may be that the toes are too long and the hip anatomy is off. Lawl, her hip almost looks dislocated. :lol:

Thank you for catching that and pointing it out =3

You're welcome. lol, it's not that off. If you wanna talk about dislocated limbs, I should show you my attempts at humans. (and alot of my canines, for that matter...) xD

:XD: Humans are difficult though. It's because we ARE humans that we feel the constant pressure to keep their anatomy as perfect as physically possible.
