Roar of the Dragon- Art by Stan Sakai; Color by SW2

Post by Becky-Chan »

Next up! I might have to trim this one down it's so huge...but I'm at my work PC so I can't tell for sure;

Image

The first HUGE UY Story Arc, the Dragon Bellow Consperency, finding the right image for this theme was a pain, insperation hit me at like 2am one night as I am sifting though books and had spent about 2 hours attempting to take the painted covers for Book 4 and adapting them for the layout and failing horribly. Then...at last, divine intervention, my copy of book 4 fell off my desk and landed open face down on the floor. I picked it up and sure enough this image, during Usagi's Dream where he confronts the Dragon, was where it opened to when it fell down. I guess the image dieties had finally agreed to show me mercy that night :wink:

Thanks for the story, and I do believe it. That is a dynamite coloring job SW. Stan's dragon designs are always awesome. Of course, you can probably tell by the homepage which one is my fave :wink:

This one as the Inzuma image, is very well colored. I strongly suggest tackling the kappa and the three-headed dragon that appeared in the Sumi-Set story.
