About my design
by TAZL
In the stories of King Solomon, a character named Ashmodai with “the feet of a chicken, the wings of a bat, the head of a lizard, and the personality of a jackass” torments and befuddles the wise king with his illusions… it’s a ridiculously awesome story.

Anyway – I love things that walk that fine line between “adorable” and “evil”. I also love mythological creatures… Between that and the story of Ashmodai, this lil guy was born.

This is my first submission… I would really, really like to hear any suggestions or advice anyone has!

Very gool, but the cicken legs bother me. They look less like feathers and chicken than th legs of a hairy t-rex

i like this a lot but the placement on the shirt makes the whole thing unattractive. something needs to happen here so that this is more than just a character on a shirt.

Hmm.. Maybe a side placement might work better?

(I wish the Critique forum had existed when I submitted this, so I could have worked out these issues first, oh well)

the drawing is great but like chelly said it needs more not much maybe a hint of background

I just don't know if those chicken feathery things work. Belly up I think this is amazing, but when I see the legs it's not as great for me.
no not really

Like the color. Love the drawing until you come to the furry/feather legs. They seem to throw off the rest of it off. Look forward to more of your efforts

Maybe if you put it in the bottom right hand corner so the tail was going over the other side.... And maybe like the suggestion of some treasure and gold and stuff behind him. But I love the dragon, especially the tounge.

Thanks everyone for your input!

I'm trying to think what to do instead of the chicken-y legs... I guess I could do plain lizard-type legs, but that seems a little boring?

He looks like a blue-tongue skink with chicken legs and a snakey tongue. I just think it's cute how he's got his little arms wrapped around the box.

Neat! I like the fact that you didn't give color to the dragon

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I think you've gotta color the dragon or leave the chest uncolored

Oh, I also wanted to add that it was indeed a conscious choice not to color the lizard-dude... Because it's about illusion, I wanted to show how some things can appear more real than others.

Anyway.

I would love to hear any other suggestions anyone has!

The legs are great - it's your own thing, and it's a lot more interesting than some standard dragon. You obviously have the skills, so go even crazier next time.

I really think this is great - even the chicken-y legs. I do agree that it could be placed on the shirt better though. Perhaps the tail wrapping to the back. Giving it a twist on ownership?

It looks strange and that's because I haven't seen anything like it.

I think the chicken legs should be feathery-er.

I thought this was a Eustace refrence from The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Made me a little sad it wasn't but I still like it. Good work.

Nice style. I like how just his eyes and the treasure chest are colored, it makes those parts really stand out.

Incredible detail on this incredibly stingy dragon! I'll put a sword through his gullet like I was Dirk the Daring ousting Singe the Dragon! Did you get the email i sent you? If so, holla back soon!
