Rory the dragon gazing into a mirror, what does he see? An impressive dragon!
I love the idea of how we see ourselves being different from reality, of only we could all have high opinions of ourselves like Rory does.
Tonight I was playing D&D with my group back in NY. They all get together at my sister’s house and my husband and I skype in with video. It’s fun, even if we haven’t worked out all of the kinks. Kinda nice that I get to keep my character and play from up here. My character is Pe’ggy, HE is a half orc Barbarian. I’ve been having a lot of fun playing him, really getting into the role playing side of it. He disbelieves in any magic, even if it benefits or hurts him. Everyone around him just plays along, even when using magic on him. For instance, when he was grown in size he just believed everyone else got small, and thought they were playing tricks on him.
While playing tonight I decided to give Pe’ggy a face. Pencil drawing that I slightly colored after scanning.
Good hygiene is important, even for little dragons. You want to keep those chompers white and sharp.
I think this will eventually become a water color, I really like how it came out and I’m often drawing Rory from the side but I really like how this from the front angle came out. I think the fur took the longest.
You will notice his pins, one if for the podcast SciFi Dig, one if a Casey’s Cadet’s badge that he got from Christianna Ellis at I think our first Balticon and the third doesn’t actually exist (yet) it’s a Flash Pulp pin, he needs one of those. For now we have stickers.
