Festivities - Smaugust 20
Who isn't fascinated by dragon dances? Apparently there are also lion dances, but it's Smaugust, not Simbagust, so it had to be a dragon. I used Wombo to create "a powerful gorgeous asian dragon", on Vibrant style I believe. Of several renders I picked this one and drew a face, fixed up some part and added a nice filter, and here we are. I found that when only overpainting a few parts rendered especially by Wombo that has sharp edges and soft areas, Painter's Pinch brush is invaluable to create the pixel-thin lines of colours bordering softer areas. I first paint with a PS brush with Color Variation set to fore/background, and add ample amounts of Median filter.
