Here be Dragons!

I'd been thinking about doing a Dragon print throughout January but life kept getting in the way. Started off sketching out some mini insect bug dragons in the blossom which I'll come back to at some point but decided for this print my dragon needed to be a little fiercer.

 Bug Dragons

 Another of my highly skilled ideas sketches.

 Giving my dragon a little more attitude.

 Having a fail at composition. Decided to go for a crop as the body looked way too stiff and uptight.

 Started printing - first layer down

 Red eyes
 Base blue
 Highlight blue
 Final black layer
 Print variation 1
 Print variation 2
Dragon on acetate.

Final prints - home and dry after 9 hours printing.
