art (c) me
Since quite a lot of people have asked me for help with drawing dragons, I decided I'd make a new tutorial. I traced the base sketch from a sketch I made earlier, so I wouldn't fail misserably while explaining.
I hope my tutorial will be helpful, enjoy! :D
lowered tags so they wouldn't interfere with the playback.

I watched it, it was quite helpful. :D Although I draw dragons similar to you anyway. And how did you make the scales look so good? They never look that great when I do them. XD
Also, I hate drawing those long thin parts of the wings.

How do you flip it? makeing the picture face the oppisite direction? and thank you :D I'll draw my next dragon but using this tec., also one more question should I not put scales all over my dragon's body? Your dragon only has scales on his neck, :/

@wolf-N You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful
@Kaily Well you know when you push the L button to get the color wheel, you get this bar beneath. And I if you click the 3rd (i think) icon there, you'll see options like "Clear canvas" "discard changes" but also the flipping option.
And yes you can use the first scale technique on the whole dragon, I only did it on the head and neck because it would take ages if I used it on the whole body and I wanted to show other techniques too. So that's why each part of the dragon has a different texture.

Gurl, you said you don't know if you should upload any videos, but you could record this playback, edit it a little, with music, or voice(?) and then upload it to YT. Lel. Just a little idea.

I would never have thought of the muzzle like that. Your tutorial is great.
