story sketch: diapering dragons [update: 08-30-2011]

This sketch is from [personal profile] aldersprig's suburban fantasy setting, dragons next door. Ten-year-old Juniper has offered to babysit the Smith's new baby, an adorable blue hatchling...who spits up acid and needs asbestos diapers.

Love!

Oh, it's adorable! I love the look on Juniper's face!

(I realize now I gave you all this color reference, knowing it was a black & white sketch... silly me! :-)

Oh my gosh, so cute!!!

I love the way her skirt is swinging around her legs, and the glimpse of the dragon toys on the bookshelf.

If he's going to grow into the ears, are the ones in this picture big enough for that?

Oh! This cleaned up very nicely.

I think the flagstones would look better if they had natural-looking texture rather than zigzags, but other than that, I really don't see anything else to comment on right now.

Only become better each time. This one is... I don't know that 'crisper' is the right word but it's the only one willing to come to mind. I like it!

Cute! Looks like the little one is quite fond of Juniper.

That's *adorable*.

Are they at the Smiths' house, or at Juniper's family's house? From the scale of the furniture I'd assume Juniper's family's, but would they have a crib sized for a dragon hatchling?

Eeeeeee! :-)

*cough* the ears are awesome! And I love the castle illustration on the crib!

And the floor! Hee! <3!

I noticed the castle on the cradle right away.

The bigger ears make him more adorable!

So. Darn. CUTE!

I love the castle on the side of the bassinet!

The books on the shelves make me wonder what books dragons read to their babies. Adorable. :)

Oh wow, I love that stone wall! Perfect.

It also amuses me greatly that dragons have teddy bears!
