I like green! Plus he stood out a bit better in it...but yeah.

It's a Frilled Lizard guy named Lang! There's not many Frilled Lizard dudes around so I thought I'd go ahead and do one.

Not much about him except he's a scout and a pretty fast one at that.

DO NOT USE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.

Lang belongs to me.

They're so cute, I luv 'em! ^w^

Adorableness aside, I'm really, really diggin' that head design you gave him. Also liking that tribal attire, most missuse it but you've done it very well. Good job on that skin, too.

On another page, I'd also liketo point out that I really like how you made him look long and slender (a preference of mine with creatures)

Oh! Thanks x) I didn't think anybody looked at my old stuff, haha

I'm glad you like, did try to make him look as lizard-like as possible so the slender and tall appearance works well with him, maybe I'll redraw him one day.

He's so cool :) I'm not much into lizardmen myself, but I really like how you did his head.
Hope to see more of him :)

Yes, fanart tends to give more exposure, but I believe it's through original art that one can truly express oneself :)
Don't be discouraged, your art is good! Anyway, what kind of requests are you taking? =P

:iconhylian-rinku:
I tend to get discouraged a lot, especially when I get nothing after putting a lot of work into things.

For requests, I'm generally doing whatever; nobody's asked me for anything yet.

I know how it feels (experiences it every day at uni), but, hoping to not go overboard with this little advice, I've learnt to never give up and go on trying, because it's something I love to do, and nobody can talk me out of it, no matter how much they try :)
It's all about the satisfaction, YOUR satisfaction in creating something and being proud of it and loving it because it owes it's very existance to you and it wouldn't live if you hadn't worked and sweated over it. That's how I feel with everything I draw or write, it's a lot and it doesn't depend on anybody other than myself. :)

And don't go away beacuse I'll surely be noting you soon with a few requests, see if there's anything you would like to draw in them! :D

I guess so, I'm one of these people who like to draw more original than fan-art. I think I will probably be posting more original art with that in mind, but I am worried that it'll all be for nought while someone else just gorges themselves on my fan-art. I do enjoy creating original characters, even my avatar is one of my original characters (who isn't on the website because I was too worried of the same thing).

I guess self-satisfaction is what matters, I just wouldn't mind some feedback on what I do as original art. It's annoying that all the kids seem to care about is their favourite characters in a pose they've never seen them in.

I won't be going anywhere! I have a subscription for a reason ;)

Well you never now, while they're gorging on fan-art they could happen to realize there is more to your gallery than just that :) Keep your hopes up! Myself, I don't care much about fan-art unless it's something really good, not just copying the characters in new poses, but I love looking at OCs :D

Actually, I totally suck at giving feedback, I'm really sorry >_> Wish I could be more helpful.

Hehe, it's alright; it's still nice to be getting some ^^

I'll try and keep my hopes up, it can just be so difficult to make anything of yourself when nobody takes any heed of your work.
