so they took the trees, they took to the skies

[meeks]

This is the finished version of one of my doodles from the May 2011 Sketchfest, based on the prompt "So they took the trees, they took to the skies" by Laura Siadak. I'll be making prints (and possibly a few other items) available to purchase after the person it was sponsored for gets her copy, so if there's something you'd like to see it on, leave me a note in the comments!

This is really nicely done. I love the striking red coloring of the dragons. They really stand out against all of that verdant green.

I like your dragons. They have a good body shape and look sturdy.

I agree that the colors are great.

Oh, I like the way this one cleaned up quite a bit!! (mistyped that as "bite" the first time, possible appropriately?)

Do they have thumbs?

I intended for them to have something a little bit like raptor talons. Does the back claw count as a thumb?

I was wondering how they were holding onto the trees. :-)

Have to wonder what they want the trees for.
