Here are some dragon designs for a 2D animated short I'm going to start here soon. The story is about an aristocrat who's constantly being beat in competitions by his neighbor. A dog show is coming up, so our hero decides to order a pampered pooch in an effort to finally beat his next door nemesis. Instead, he gets a baby dragon.
This first set of sketches here are explorations on different head shapes and attitudes.
this guy showed up. Thanks to my dear friend Anthony Holden for tips on making his grin more mischievous.
