This seemed like a good idea when it came to me, but I'll be damned if I can make it happen on "paper"..

Story: Girls get attention from driver - dragon attacks - dragon eats driver and girl gets gold..

The girl's motivation is missing really - why does she need gold? and I couldn't fit the carriage and the horse into the "2nd frame"... In my grand delusion I even imagined I could get away with drawing a scene that went from sunset to "moon light".. with fire and even a horse..

Any suggestions? - I've just about given it up..

oh.. I thought... from seeing the other dino/chick pics.. that the girl was the only human in that world..

hm i dont believe she need gold, she have no wear also she needs no gold...

give her a fass or bottle full beer (dont know how to say it in english)... OR A SEX TOY

but it looks good

Well, good point - maybe she should be the only human.. I haven't thought *that* much about it.. Mostly it's just an excercise (sp?) for me.. But if I keep getting ideas I'll develop it into a comic or book or whatever..

Nice work, Ecanem. Like the Dinodragon, kinda reminds me of the old Valhalla-comics, for some reason.

Don't really have any suggestions, just a question: Do you *really* have the time to post all these sketches here??

<edit> When *will* I learn to proof-read my posts? </edit>

Yes, I think also that *she* should be only one person on the planet... It doesn't make sense that there is some guy with horse in full clothes and suddenly he meets completly naked lady... with dinos....

and yes like someone mentioned your style reminds me also Valhalla..... and maybe some weirway Asterix

She needs the gold to stage her revenge

When she was a 4 year old infant, her family was migrating thorugh the "rough country" on their way to the land of opportunity, and they were ambushed by bandits. Her entire family was killed. By some miracle the mother managed to hide her from the ruthless robbers in some bushes by the road, before she was hacked to death before her daughters eyes.

She was adopted by a gentle dragon who took care of her like a one of his/her own until she was old enough to take her revenge. Since she was only 4 when she lost her family, she has obviously grown out of her clothes. She also has no silly instilled views about nudity, and she thinks being proud of her body is an obvoius thing. Sometimes when they go swimming in the lake, she can spend hours, admiring her own reflection, and wondering if she will ever find someone who will love her as she is, naked(absolutely !!

) and living away from the evil society that killed her family, and come and live with her and the dragon forevermore. She learned how to speak dragonian too ...

The dragon agreed to help her, he has some family members who would love to get some more gold to sleep on, and eating a few hundred bandits is something they would (almost

) consider doing for free since the bandits had no fierce and noble knights to threaten their existence. The dragon took her to the place where her family was killed 13 years earlier, and sure enough, the robbers were still up to no good. They discovered a hidden road in the vast forest, used by the bandits to cart their loot to a small village led by a ruthless chief, operating in a no-mans-land out of the juristiction of any Lord or King.

... to be continued ... (??)

HAHAHA Excellent story Hawkone!!!

My stomach aches from laughing - no shit!

- And no, I don't really have time to make sketches and so on.. but friday I was home (sick) and bored beyond belief.. So I crawled to my computer and startede doodling a little.. Being sick is so annoying!

I love the old Valhalla comics (and Asterix), and I don't mean to brag (sp?), but my dad worked as a cameraman on the film and he sometimes took me to his work and I saw the film being made - I actually recorded a few frames myself!

she needs money for some clothes, obviously.

Maslak · Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2002 4:35 am

You recorded some of the old Valhalla movie?.. You RULE!

Ecanem · Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2002 3:43 pm

The recording part wasn't that interesting really. Basically my dad would take a cel and place it in the right layer under the camera - then look on the sheet to see how many frames this particular cel was to be "held/used" and flick a switch accordingly - then continue with the next and the next and the next... Sometimes he'd spray some "air" on the glass to remove any dust (my english sucks)

But nevertheless it WAS cool being there and seeing a bit of "magic" happen!

The coolest thing was seeing a statue of Thor that the painters had for reference, and also the backgrounds layed out on the floor - awesome work if you ask me! Sorry for rambling on like this - but I'm still too weak to draw and I'm bored... I'll stop here..
