I did it.
A dragon tutorial... finally!

Part 1 covers the sketch and lineart...
I suck at tutorials ^^;
I hope it helps at least 1 person cause then I'll be happy.

TIPS
:bulletred: There is NO RIGHT WAY to draw a dragon. VERY important to remember that. You can make the dragon look like ANYTHING thats why they are so fun to draw! Try and base them off real animals. I use CATS and DOGS for my legs, and SNAKES for the tail and neck. BAT WINGS or BIRD WINGS are used for the dragon's wings. But dragons have no rules, so go NUTS!!!
:bulletorange: Sketch and sketch and draw and draw. Keep drawing. Its great practice. Even if you think it looks bad, work with it.
:bulletyellow: Watching animals or nature can help with dragon drawing. Perhaps you see a feature of an animal you'd like to put on a dragon? Or perhaps draw a dragon based off a waterfall? The possibilities are endless!
:bulletgreen: Love what you draw. Don't like dragons? Why are you looking at this tutorial? :XD:
:bulletblue: I'm out of tips for the moment >.>

Enjoy~
