A way into the drawing

  1. Build two round shapes

    Use a circle for the head and a larger oval for the body. Add a rounded muzzle.

  2. Give it wings and a tail

    Attach two small triangular wings, then curl a long tail around the feet.

  3. Add a little character

    Place the eyes and nostrils. Finish with a few small scales and soft claw marks.

A small thing to tryUse larger eyes and a shorter snout for a younger-looking dragon. Try changing the expression too.
