[QUOTE="Mithril Dragon, post: 2452450, member: 33398"] Well of course in typical fashion, I jumped the gun and assumed you weren't watching. I guess I should explain (briefly) ... I am a CGI artist who does Flame work for TV/Film. While that is an interesting line of work it lacks imagination. I was trained as an illustrator and that's where my passion lies. I am also married and a father of three (five year old son and six-week old twin boys) so my time is limited. But I have cut out everything "unecessary" (games / hobbies / etc) and use all of my spare time to illustrate and work towards getting commissions in fantasy / sci-fi work. So I tend to get obsessive and always assume everyone else is going to be as "involved". Not a good assumption ... I know. Having said that, I am going to be doing a lot of illustartions for an upcoming d20 supplication. But it won't start for a few weeks. So in the meantime I am going to attempt to get full colors of [I]Gideon Redcloak[/I] and [I]Elijayess[/I] completed. I can use them as portfolio pieces so it works to my benefit as well. On a side note, I had the idea of putting out my own d20 supplement that dealt exclussively with half dragons - background fluff, special items, feats, prestige classes, etc - complete with full blown art of various types of half-breeds (reds, blacks, greens, blues, silvers - even shadow dragon and faerie dragon half breeds). But it looks like WOTC beat me to the punch. Should I try to publish a competetive product? Dunno. Anyway - the list is now Gideon and then Elijayess. I may even attempt to throw in ThornMD's "Taka". thorn, I realize its the only one in the list that looks to be previously illustrated, but Im digging the exploration of half-dragon features right now and a half gold dragon / half elf is too good to pass up.
