Yesterday I finished a small depiction of some thing that happened in my all girls gaming group. After falling through a portal into what was apparently the tomb of a great dragon king, our group was arrested by the nearby dragon population and sent on a series of quests. This particular quest focused on us scaling a mountain and retrieving half of a magical coin. The young chaotic, volcanic dragon guarding said treasure refused to give up "his shiny," even though we knew where there were a lot of shinies to exchange for it. In fact, there was a perfectly good dragon crown going to waste not too far off! After negotiations fell through, our Ranger, managed to somersault onto the youngling's head and up onto the invisible platform where the half-coin lay. Beating a hasty retreat, we stopped to rest ad discuss exactly what this thing did, which lead to the falling conversation fragment:

Although this picture took me maybe 2 hours tops to finish, it was a bit of a change in style for me. This one was played loose and fast, with minimal black outline, something which I've almost everyone abandon lately. This could be a new step in the direction of a more painterly style, but I'm not quite sure if I'm ready for that yet. One of the only other pictures that I've used multi-colored outlines on is the repaint I did of Gadget. I'm happy it turned out as well as it did, considering I felt like I had to really fight my instincts to get the inking and coloring "just right."
