Habanero-dragon-1

A second picture in my pepper dragons series. This time I went for habaneros, and obviously a little toony. I should have really gone for full out full-saturation orange, rather than trying to shade it too much. I will spend more time getting the colors right on the next one, and change the dragon to stand out a smidge more. This was the favorite of the ones I painted, getting the most responses.

Original sold in the Further Confusion 2010 art show.

So cute! I really like how the shading looks here.

Actually that explains the whole fire breathing thing. I love how you blend the colors so well. :3

Cousin Habanero is the liveliest dragon I know! Jeez, what a temper! He's a cute one, but get too close and you'll find he can be downright intolerable! I think he adds a good spice to a social mix, but only in small doses.

hehehe too cute, but id worry not so much of the fire breath but the aftermath of eating all those spicy peppers. i would NOT want to be down wind of that little dragon if you catch my drift but he is frightfully cute and huggable
