Drawing- Sharpies on Posters- Dragon


Drawing on posters requires three things, a poster board, a sharpie, and a lot of patience. I did this for a friend on a poster cut 12 x 12 inches and even with the smaller space this drawing took almost three hours, primarily spent drawing repetitive scales on the dragon. I would recommend using permanent marker, (I used the fine tip)  but to do a quick sketch in pencil first. I added a bit of crosshatching on the bigger parts, such as around the eyes, the wings, the tail, and the larger scales. Just remember- An artist is not someone who doesn't make mistakes, but someone who can make them look good. If you make a mistake with permanent marker, you can't erase it, but you can fix it to look like something else in your painting.
