Dragon... Video

This vid is nothing new or original from me. Many who know my vids will notice that it is pretty much the same thing as a few of the other dragon vids on here. But there is good reason for that. I created this piece for a tutorial bit in Art Scene International Magazine. The feature is to be a "step by step" how to focusing on specific details such as scales and fire.

I tried to recreate a painting based mostly on the youtube vid "Speed painting a Dragon... Again" since that one seems to be the most popular. Recording the original speed vid at a high resolution, I was able to get good screen grabs for the illustrations that accompany the "how-to" write-up.

And even though this is a "same ol' same ol' " piece, I did record it in a way that will help some be able to dissect other parts of the work, as I have included all of my photoshop panels and tools in the screen.

Enjoy.
