Artist's Comments

Inver, the blind dragon of Fate.
Because it is blind, it is impartial...

*drawn and colored from a reference (Hidecarved-Gold Dragon, page 95 of "Dungeons and Dragons" by Draconomican), using water-soluble color pencils.
for ~balhaza.

see the pencil sketch here.

as said, the dragon is from a reference, not my creation really. even the description is from a concept conjured by my friend ~balhaza to which the picture is dedicated to.
the coloring medium is the only thing i experimented with and really have some creative fun.
anyhow thank u so much for the comment and the :+fav:! :handshake:

the color work in this piece is incredible. it's unusual for things posted on this site to experiment with colors like this. it's a bold piece even with the watered background. good job.

I saw this yesterday and noticed that it is a great drawing, but didn't feel like commenting. But I changed my mind after i saw a dream last night. In the dream there was a blind elf with a helmet similar to your dragons head~ Coincidence? I don't think so.
Now I feel that I must comment and praise your artwork. Really cool coloring, and excellent pose. I like it. I like it a lot.

Going to +fav it aswell~

My dear penguins, we stand upon a great threshold! It's alright to be scared; most of you won't be coming back.

I particulary like the dragons face he looks so noble and wise. I like how you have the graceful creature hanging on the rock peak. Well done Moyan. Nice traditional drawing too.
