Mighty red

Commission for Vaalk on FA.

Vvlkn never smiles, but he is known to grin with an inherent cruelty dashed across his rictus. His expression permeates the observant in subversive ways, and his mentality is one that's always seeking to rip a creature asunder. He is manipulative, cunning and utterly brutal, thus it shows through his aspect and is easily reflected from his excessive pride blatantly shown upon himself. He is a vain dragon who adores himself and his capabilities, and it's something that's ubiquitously prevalent in his appearance. He always holds his head high and proud, his features emphasised upon any imagery designed to capture who and what he is. He makes a wonderful subject for a painter who prefers to draw a dictator, even then presenting nothing but sheer ferocity - the painter who draws him would likely find himself/herself dead when the picture has been completed.

It was a long time ago I did something detailed like this. I finally have some free time.
