Illustration from pages 88 and 89 of TG.

The dragon sleeps. What was a dim light in the sky grows brighter. Now it sits across a sand, and the dragon's eye lids twitch faintly.

--

... I know I haven't posted TG on my DA account for a long time. I sort of went silent. Wishing to hide everything beneath a rock and not let anyone see it. T_T Instead of posting full pages, maybe I will post single illustrations from TG on DA whenever there is an ok one. ^^; (oh yeaaaah define "OK" <~ I will never post any of them.) Proceed to the website for full update.

Your watercolours are bloody incredible. I love how the colour palette is limited, but so very vibrant. And the crisp edges are delicious . . . Flipping gorgeous work!

Stunning, perfect light and wonderfully sharp and controlled. How do you create such even and sharp areas of color?.. I tend to get those "darker edges" to my colored areas (especially if they are light colors I add) due to drying.. you know what I mean?

Yes, I think I know what you mean. XD I actually do get those dark halos as well. Sometimes I even paint with coffee when I especially want them, since coffee seems to make really extreme halos.

Depending on how staining the paint is, you can let the paint dry, and then with a wet brush with clean water, lift some of the paint back off where the halo is, then dry it away with a towel.

But I dunno. I kind of like the halos. I usually leave them be. <3 They're a pretty, unique part of watercolor paint... if perfect smoothness is desired, then other paint or photoshop would probably work best.

:D You are probably right. Halos just sometimes annoy me very much for instance while doing a face.. But thanks for that great answer, I'll keep that coffee in mind :D
