Very early studies of dragons as mentioned above, many of these are not my own designs
Dragons from Samuari Jack and How to Train Your Dragon with some of my own designs scattered throughout
Adam drew that dragon on the bottom right
Early dragon sketches were really bad because I was still figuring out my own shorthand for drawing dragons

Whew, that was extremely long. I have gassed myself out and if you have made it this far, congratulations! You’ve now learnt my method of learning how to draw things! Now all that’s left to do is design 200 dragons!

Speaking of dragons, this book 100 Mighty Dragons All Named Broccoli written by David LaRochelle comes out TOMORROW! You can order a signed copy here or if you don’t want a signed copy you can order it here instead.

Once again, thanks for your support! See you next time.

LIAN THIS RULES. It was so satisfying to read that list of different dragon traits??? Like it soothed my mind. This whole thing was so calming in its methodical-ness-- I'm gonna refer back to it in 2 months when I'm panicking about how to draw the DMV. CAN'T WAIT FOR MY COPY TO ARRIVE!!!
