Wow. Amazing. I wish I could paint something like this on my daughter's wall. I built her a castle bunkbed and this would be perfect.

Csodaszép, a fények elképesztőek!Cat omg Milyen Krita verziót használsz?

What does "Csodaszép" mean?

MalthusWolf's avatar

Köszönöm, örülök hogy tetszik! :) A Kritám az jelenleg 4.2.8-as. Már nagyon rég frissitenem kellett volna. Nem szeretem hogy bizonyos ecsetbeállitásaim eltűnnek ha egy új verzióra állok át ezért mindig csak halogatom.

I've been looking at this since I got to it (I'm very behind on the watchlist XD) trying to think of something to say about it that isn't just gushing about how beautiful it is but I've got nothing XP

I love how fluffy the spines look, I kind of what to pat it but have a feeling it might be spikier than it looks XD It looks like it's hunting, what do they eat? :)

Oh and also love the light reflections on the water, something else I need to learn how to do.

I'm behind on my watchlist too to be honest, its a bit harder to follow notifications since we don't have the old site but we have to make do with what we have I guess.

Don't worry, I myself have days where I just have nothing interesting to ask or say. xD Then I have days when I don't even have to break a sweat to come up with titles for paintings or topics to discuss. It's like a roller coaster.

I'm kinda happy with the spines, I really wanted to incorporate red onto that blueish hue to break it up. They probably are more spiky than soft haha!

Hunting wise...hmm... Most probably herbivore mammals but I like to think of this one for some reason to be a Wyvern that prefers to eat fish lol. That might come from my initial thoughts as I was designing it and at first I wanted to do a water serpent. I scratched that idea for now though because I really wanted to do something with a wide wingspan for composition reasons. So here we are. :D

Thanks, glad you like it!!

The light and how it hits the wyvern as it flies toward the sun is stunning. I also like how the red "spikes" seem to be whipped flat against the animal by the wind as it glides through the air.
