I want to divide this experience in few different posts. I promise it is absolutely worthy.

So I had few practices of dragon heads with a main digital-made-one. This is actually very useful when you are looking up for character for a creature that has no human features such as same face muscles (which allows to have human-ish expressions) or simply to make it more rude, badass or more silly and dumb.

This is actually a very important skill and knowledge since in the industry of arts many clients are looking up for giving character and personality to unanimated objects...

When I was working on an advertisement company back in Latin America I had maaany times to put personality and make a character up from things like a broccoli, a carrot, a bug (which was slightly easier), a piece of cheese, a broom, etc.

You will also see in further stages of these episodes of The Birth of a Wyvern how important it was to have this base for establishing the whole concept later on.

Those practice on my sketchbook actually triggered few ideas of what I was looking for. Original ideas I must say due that I was exploring mostly shapes instead structure that I've already seen somewhere.

This is very useful in order to make original and fresh-looking content. After all, the whole point is to create something that speaks about us and not about someone or something else, which happens most likely with stolen-artworks and ideas.

And finally, the digital piece, which was also a piece of practice, but the one that triggered the main idea at most. Enjoy! =)

Thanks a lot for your support and I see you in the next one!
