Title: It's the Year of the Snake so let's draw some snakes!
Post by: One Of The Crappy Pokemon That Nobody Likes on February 11, 2024, 06:21:29 pm
(NOTE: THREAD WAS ORIGINALLY STARTED DURING THE YEAR OF THE DRAGON)

... I do not have any dragon pictures on me at the moment, so someone else please start us off.

Everyone should draw at least one dragon. Just everyone in the whole world. "But... but... I never draw!" you might say. Well... EVEN BETTER! I bet all of you each have a great design for a dragon that you've never shown the world. Time to finally draw them! Show me! I want to see them!

This is my new favorite thread on the whole site. (I will draw one soon.)
While we wait, here's a bunch i've probably already shared here.

Shell Game, May 15, 2024, 02:10:19 am

I... think so? I recall someone (I thought it was you but maybe I'm misremembering) found an early AI site that generated Pokemon based on whatever text you input, though half the time the "Pokemon" were just circles filled with geometric patterns because it was averaging all Vivillons' wings together. At one point you(?) said it finally spit out a Pokemon with the prompt "Portaxx" + some fiddling with the settings, and gave me the resulting gibberish:

(https://i.imgur.com/qjN0i2I.png)

Early AI slop used to be funny-ugly imho. I still like the neck ears or whatever the hell those are supposed to be.

(NOTE: AI slop dragons in and of themselves do not count as "drawing a dragon" for the purposes of this thread. Gotta draw it yourself, everyone!)

Still kinda shy to post this but recently I commissioned an artist to have a dragon character of my own, but keeping in spirit with the thread I'll also show the ugly-ass MSpaint "reference" I first gave him to work with.

(https://i.imgur.com/eF4gZPQ.png)

And it became this after some iterations and me changing my mind on some bits.

Thanks to everyone who drew a dragon! I hope you had fun with it. I genuinely like seeing people post their stuff, regardless of experience level, so keep drawing dragons no matter where you are out there!

So this new year will be the year of the Snake. Here's a question, if anyone has any input:

Do we (A) keep drawing dragons? (B) make a snake thread? or (C) both?

Belated dragon?

I like the Dragon Quest series a lot, and grew up on the first 4 on the NES (back when they were still localized as Dragon Warrior). So the other day I wanted to see if I could do up my character from page 2 in the style of a DW4 monster overworld sprite. For not having any real experience, I think I did well enough.

It's about... 90% original, minus the shape of the eyes and the side-view feet. 3 color limitation, taken from the game itself.
